The only complex shit about this art installation by Paul McCarthy is the safety device that failed to work when a storm hit the Paul Klee Center in Bern, Switzerland. Titled Complex Shit, the inflatable dog turd blew away, brought down a power line, and broke a window before landing in the grounds of a children’s home.
That’s one of the funniest things I’ve heard in awhile. Then again, this may have inadvertently broadened the statement he was trying to make.
It’s like Claes Oldenburg on a sillier-than-average day… I absolutely love this, especially its moment as performance art!
Wow, shit flying, that has so many meanings on so many levels…
Man, that is something. Did Paul pay for all that damage?
