Over-rated shit by a hack artist.
But with Hauser & Wirth, you must be promoted endlessly.

Buttplug? Whatever your opinion of Paul McCarthy, one cannot avoid the fact that his work makes an overwhelming impression. People who are faced with it for the first time probably react with a mixture of horror, curiosity and disdain, but the attentive reviewer will not miss its humor and penetration. He is one of a generation of artists who react to the Minamal Art and Conceptual Art of the sixties by restoring the link between artistic activity and harsh reality. + McCarthy is slightly insane

è una gran schifezza sta cosa.
Arte?
arte è il mio pugno che gli sfonda il cranio.

I believe the greatest gift I can give to anybody is my silence and my four most cherished proverbs are; If one plants poison ivy, one does not get to pick strawberries, what you think of me is none of my business, we may not always get what we want but we always get what we expect and, we cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails. I do my best to live by The Golden Rule.

who says its not art? the public, art critics or you? if it is your opinion, what do you base your opinion on? I'll assume that "art," for you has to be say, beautiful or something like that. Well if all art is beautiful then, it limits itself to what it can talk about. It can only be about beautiful things. Art is a view on life, and life is quite ugly sometimes. So "ugly," things, can still be artistic in nature and vice versa.

android90beats...good points! That is a much more graspable idea for the non-Artist than the Art Historical model citing DuChamp...Artist declares it to be Art. I will have to try that arguement out sometime.

i think sometimes "art," is its own worst enemy in terms of its name ( A - R - T ) this is art! bow down before me!!!!/ or maybe in this case, MY AESTHETIC IS BEYOND YOUR SENSIBILITY. Also i think people have preconceptions of it performing for an idealistic outdated notion of beauty or expression. oh its symbolises his inner turmoil - yadda yadda, whatever. if we break it down with an open mind, unpretentiously, then it becomes alot more relevant/valid. or then again thats just an opinion ;)
