Buck Angel and Allanah Starr life size sculpture is showing in London at White Cube gallery along with 2 more of me and Allanah. I will post those next. Please check out the cool write up in the Guardian UK
I am really blown away that I have achieved this level in the art world. Marc is a super cool guy and what an artist he is. The rest of the show is so amazing!
WOOF

The Guardian article doesn’t include the actual titles of the pieces, for some reason, but the artist is Marc Quinn.
Lady Gaga sells the promise of outré weirdness without ever being genuinely transgressive or even semiotically coherent. Instead of presenting a series of interlocking propositions of a grand artistic vision, Lady Gaga serves up flat signifiers of superficial ideas—the frisson of the peculiar, disassociated fragments of subcultures (S&M porn, haute performance art, etc.) that would be entirely unpalatable for mainstream Americans if presented more thoroughly. Her shtick is not meant to add up, because then that would actually scare the people she’s trying to woo.
