Paul McCarthy at LM Arts





L & M Arts new gallery in Venice is currently showing a new body of work by sculptor and video artist Paul McCarthy. In his first show in Los Angeles in over a decade McCarthy brings together and reworks several different series including his Hummel works - based on kitsch german figurines, and Pig Mechanical - an exercise in political satire as well as McCarthy's own fascination with animatronic rides such as Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean.
