A giant inflatable dog turd by American artist Paul McCarthy blew away from an exhibition in the garden of a Swiss museum, bringing down a power line and breaking a greenhouse window before it landed again, the museum said Monday.
The art work, titled “Complex S(expletive..)”, is the size of a house. The wind carried it 200 metres (yards) from the Paul Klee Centre in Berne before it fell back to Earth in the grounds of a children’s home*, said museum director Juri Steiner. — Yahoo Canada
I knew there was a reason I liked Paul McCarthy so much in graduate school. I’d pay top dollar to see an encore performance at Carroll Park.

It’s what happens when fans of shit see the shit hit the fan. But seriously, don’t you think the kids at the children’s home have been dumped on enough?
at first i thought they were inflatable hippos posed as if they were playing and thought it was adorable. :-/
i so wish that would come to NYC. i’d cry laughing.
