On the 23rd of April 2010 the artist R. Byrne motivated by a desire for an event that no longer existed and presenting herself as a collector of contemporary art contacted the two main galleries of artist Roberto Cuoghi for information on a ‘work’ carried out between late 1990′s and early 2000. On being told that the work was never a work and that therefore no documentation survived the event the artist was given information on his most recent self portraits. 2 days later documents were ordered, accounts were opened and a portrait was purchased. The artist R. Byrne changed her name and Roberto Cuoghi began to look like a woman ten years younger, 2011.
