Lecture at the Hammer museum: Paul McCarthy

Horrible. Really horrible. I left after an hour and a half, and I only regret that I didn't leave earlier. 90 percent of the staff that the guy was showing was porn and shit (literally). And he is the professor at UCLA. Well, fine, if you do so-called "conceptual art", at least explain what the concept is. No. He would just go like: "And here me and my friends did this piece of porn", show the slides and move on. I
was hoping, since he is a professor and got international acclaim, he would play with the audience and say something smart at the end, but the more I looked at him, the more I realized that this may not happen. Anyway, I finally decided that I'm not going to be a guinea pig for him.
