A plaster sculpture created in 1992 based on a design by Armando Testa, a prominent Italian artist and advertiser, based on his drawings from the 1960s for Philco (a manufacturer of televisions and household appliances) advertising. One thousand copies were made of the sculpture. The 1960s advertisement was based on the fictional character "Papalla," who inhabits the eponymous planet with his fellow humans: on the planet, spaghetti grows ready-made in the fields, every day the planet's scientist presents an invention, and the inhabitants work only two days a week. This piece has an attribution mark,
