Kendall Jenner As 'Trophy Wife' Stephanie Seymour for Garage Magazine #18

Italian conceptual artist Maurizio Cattelan and British-Ghanian fashion photographer Campbell Addy collaborate on the new ‘Unhinged’ cover story of GARAGE Magazine 18. The artistry features supermodel Kendall Jenner as the 2020 muse channeling Cattelan’s famed work ‘Stephanie’ (2003).

The lifelike sculpture of American supermodel Stephanie Seymour, married to art collector and ‘Interview’ founder Peter Brandt, is frequently called ‘Trophy Wife’. In 2002, Cattelan dined at their estate in Greenwich, Conn, when Brant was looking to commission something from him. Surveying the library, studded with stuffed and mounted animals Brant had killed on safari, Maurizio Cattelan had an idea.

“Your real trophy, Peter,” he said, “is your wife.” Because the finished trophy — mounted to look like a dead gazelle — was made of wax, it couldn’t be hung over the fireplace without melting it. The piece was done in an edition of four: one for the buyer, one for the artist, one for the dealer, and one to be sold.
