Paul McCarthy (Salt Lake City, 1945) is an internationally renowned artist who lives and works in Los Angeles, California. His work deals with American visual culture and mass consumer society, towards which he is highly critical. However, European art and thinkers such as Joseph Beuys, Samuel Beckett and the Vienna Actionists also influence his visual language. He often works in the form of installations and with (sometimes inflatable) sculptures.
