Paul McCarthy is a seminal West Coast artist. Born in 1945 in Salt Lake City, Utah, McCarthy is known for his raw, visceral work which has taken form in a wide variety of media (photography, painting, performance, sculpture, video, installation, drawing, and painting) ranging in scale from monumental to intimate. Playing on illusions and cultural myths, McCarthy’s work often embodies obsessive activities and challenges expected physical orientation.
