at: the whitney museum of american art, new york
from: on view until october 12, 2008

typically known for his mix of sculpture, performance art and video injected with maximum shock value,
paul mccarthy's current exhibition at the whitney takes a different spin. no, seriously. the gallery space
displays individual domestic spaces which on first glance appear normal, but end up playing with the
viewer's perception through spinning mirrors, rotating walls, projections and altered spaces. the work
produces a cacophony of sounds and chaotic visuals resulting in a completely disorienting space.
