The fire is Tex,
The call the cum Ryan

Does it come complete with hairy palms? If so, I'll take it.

the venture brothers meets Dragon Ball Z...

Kind of reminds me of a cross between semen and Fantasia.

Remember how Matthew Barney's exhibit at the Guggenheim was totally cummy? That was weird. I AM AN ART CRITIC.

I never knew Conbon was a millionaire.

This is actually still his best piece. I'm being completely serious.

Ew.

@BeRightBack: I also love the way they have it displayed in the Brooklyn Museum right now: there are large paintings on each wall that look like ab-ex pictures of white ribbons on a colored background - and then you see manga dude, and realize what the ribbons are...

@hypocriteoath: You know what? I could actually see Hank trying something like this.

@BeRightBack: totally agree. He does in sculpture what artists like Gainsborough did with oils and paints, being able to show the movement of light across objects. He's fantastic.

@CodePink: There's cummy and then there's gummi.

The only thing dumber than manga is ugly LV bags covered with it.

why would I pay 3-4 million for a little statue of Johnny Urine?

7 days my ass
looks like someone started the milky way in under 7 minutes
Creationism

Oh, my god. That would be PERFECT in my livingroom.

@Shariahpants: I think he's overrated and disingenuous, but you're right about his formal dexterity. I just wish he'd lose the Warholian Japanationalism BS that weighs down the subversive potential of early stuff like this (though it's made him rich, so who am I to whine?).

Just in time for Mother's Day.

This exhibit is actually really great and well curated. If you think this is shocking, you should see the lady sculpture standing opposite "Lonesome Cowboy."

@Shariahpants: Like Gainsborough? You have got to be kidding.

Thanks to that pic, I think I just got fired.

That was your plan all along, wasn't it Gawker? Get me fired, so I can comment every minute of every day?

Well ... it just might work.

lol WHY do guys think coming is so superheroic?

@Priam: Got Milt?

I always wondered what sort of styling product manga dudes used on their hair.

@Astigmatism:

I was going to say. It actually looks a lot better with the background pieces.

Also totally serious.

fitting that he's rocking the "there's something about mary" hair.

Is there something about Manga power that allows for the little guy to still be standing up after that?

@Miss-Pringle: especially when they're by themselves?

@Nard38:

Well, *I* got it.

I make that same face. Every time.

@Elektra: So did I; I'm just worrying that my office's security package logs keystrokes.

@valarmorghulis: HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Well now he knows what that thing down there is used for.

@DaDuckster: johnny, jimmy...*sigh* the brain is fried!

Well, looks like that sculpture needs better security, cuz his bawls are missing.

Other than the way, way, way too obvious, it's built like a girl. Look at those legs.

My boyfriend and I played a fun game when we went to the Murakami exhibition at Brooklyn Museum: we stood near the cum-cloud sculpture for a few minutes and watched people's facial expressions as they turned around the corner and realized what they were seeing. Priceless every time.

John Ashcroft would have a field day with this statue. There just isn't enough blue cloth left to make it decent.
