360: Paul McCarthy
25 Oct-18 Nov 2018
Zabludowicz Collection
London NW5 3PT
Overview
American artist Paul McCarthy is known for his provocative performances, multi-media installations, sculptures, and films. His work fuses high and low culture and corrupts conventionally innocent figures from myth, folklore and popular iconography. Religious or fairy tale characters are made perverse and perform taboo sex acts, creating a sharp, yet comical criticism of American mythology and accepted societal norms. McCarthy bombards the audience with a sensory overload, of sexual and violent imagery that often makes viewers feel uncomfortable and stirs controversy. Commissioned and produced by Khora Contemporary and first presented at the Venice Biennale in 2017, C.S.S.C. Coach Stage Stage Coach revisits McCarthy ongoing series “Coach Stage Stage Coach,” and led to 11 variations of the piece in virtual reality.
