Paul McCarthy's work is of a big influence to the younger artists generation. From time to time Paul MaCarthy works together with Mike Kelley and Jason Rhoades. His Performances, Environments, Videos, Installations and Sculptures question the american myth. Heroes from television for kids like Heidi or Pinocchio become psychopathic actors of horror scenarios. His videos are on one hand important elements of the documentation of his work and on the other hand standalone pieces of art.
