“Performance Artist” Collects Urine For LGBT Art Exhibit

“Performance Artist” Collects Urine For LGBT Art Exhibit

It’s a mad, mad, mad, mad, world. Or should we say a pissed, pissed, pissed, pissed world? From the same pack of loons that brought us “Lobsta Girl”, Rebecca Goyette we bring you more “performance art” from wacky liberals. You may want to put your food aside if you’re eating lunch right about now. (Cue drum roll)…on exhibit in NYC..a 200-gallon tank of urine!

Yes, urine. That was not a typo. Cassils, a transgender artist (formerly known as Heather Cassils) from Montreal, has been collecting his (?) urine for 200 days in hospital urine containers. Ooops, I had better make sure I refer to them as the correct pronoun before getting sued. From The “About Cassils” page:

“Cassils is a gender non-conforming trans masculine visual artist. Cassils uses plural gender-neutral pronouns (they, them, their) and a single name (as opposed to first and surname) and asks that journalists do likewise when referring to them. This singularity of name and plurality of gender reflects through language the position Cassils occupies as an artist. For guidelines on writing about gender non-conforming people, please reference the GLAAD Media Reference Guide on Transgender Issues: http://www.glaad.org/reference/transgender.”

Thanks for clearing that up, GLAAD. Because 1 + 0= 2.

The “powerful” (according to HuffPo) reason Cassils is saving they, thems, theirs (whatever’s) urine to be on display in n a huge tank? Thought you’d never ask:

The piece, entitled “PISSED” was created in response to President Donald Trump’s February decision to rescind President Obama’s directive that transgender students should be able to use the restroom that corresponds with their gender identity. PISSED will be unveiled at the gallery on Saturday night when, according to a press release for the show, Cassils will perform a related piece, Fountain, and thereby complete “the 200 day durational performance by linking their body to the minimalist structure.”

Cassils drew the inspiration for “art” by following the Gavin Grimm case and responding to the bullying of a transgendered teen. Because NOTHING combats bullying like collecting jugs of bodily waste. The artist who was “so angry” wanted to “flood the White House with piss” but decided against it when “their” lawyer advised against it because “they” is (I love how they want to re-write the English language) applying for U.S. citizenship.

The grande finale of this “performance piece”? Here it is…read it and weep:

“…And then the performance I’m doing is really a closing ceremony for those 200 days. It’s very different from the rest of my performances that are kind of visually bombastic. I will be facing the sculpture on a very, very high [platform] — probably like 10 feet up in the air, so you’re not eye-line with my crotch. I’m looking down on you. And behind me, is a grid of the 262 orange 24-hour urine capture bottles I used and they create another cube. There’s one space left, which is the one final bottle. So for the two hours of the exhibition opening, I will literally just be standing up there and pissing into the bottle if I have to piss. And at the end of the performance I will climb down and I will dump the urine into the cube and I will place that final bottle on the shelf. So it’s really about closing this piece down.”-Cassils

Not eye-line with the crotch?! Well, thank goodness for that! Want to advocate for LGBT rights? Just collect a few jugs of pee and put them on display! Some sucker might actually give you money to do it! Maybe I’m just not cerebral enough to understand it but why do these “performance artists” insist on exposing themselves and urinating and/or defecating in public to make a statement? It’s right up there withmenstrual blood paintings. Yuck. Just yuck.

This, supposedly is “art” and gets grants.

Yeah, I’m pissed, too. Pissed that our planet has bat guano crazy.

    Well at least he is sparing us by not putting a crucifix in it like Serrano did back in ’87. (Remember? Piss Christ.) And presumably this exhibit won’t explode like Piero Manzoni’s seminal work, Artist’s Shit, several of which have blown up due to build up od gas pressure.

    Ever wonder if the Left could get any crazier?

    Well….

    Urine luck.

    (Since passing urine is also known by the medical realm by the word “void”, one might also observe that the Leftists indeed are “void” of any intellectual content —- as usual.)
