Paul McCarthy: "Painter" (1995). "This video was made in California, where McCarthy lives and works, on a soundstage in Hollywood. In an interview with the art historian Kristine Stiles published in 1996, McCarthy explained the significance of the sets, spaces and furniture he employs in his work: 'I seem to have a strong interest in placing the action in architecture and in using furniture: rooms connected to rooms, doors, windows and hallways. The house itself and the action of going in and out of its rooms. I always use tables; tables being a pedestal, something for me to stand on where I become figurative sculpture. The table is also a kind of altar, a place for food preparation. I think it has to do with the search for a very basic kind of activity.' Although 'Painter' satirises broader aspects of the art world, such as the role of collectors and dealers, its main focus is on the notion of the heroic artist, with McCarthy’s character more reminiscent, in both appearance and behaviour, of a clown than a creative genius. At one point in the video he spins around chanting ‘de Kooning’ – a reference to Willem de Kooning (1904–1997), the Dutch-American artist who was a key figure in abstract expressionism, the movement that emerged in New York in the late 1940s and which has often been associated with a performative and intellectual approach to painting. In Painter McCarthy appears as a shambolic and career-minded artist, who performs strange rituals (such as mixing mayonnaise and ketchup with his paint) while remaining deeply concerned with money and status." -Richard Martin
