Complex Sh it, a humongous, inflatable dog turd, by artist Paul McCarthy has been causing quite a scene. The quirky art piece is part of the "East of Eden: A Garden Show" exhibition and escaped last week from the Zentrum Paul Klee museum. It caused destruction during its flight that included bringing down a power line and breaking a window.
The piece is currently parked next to a children's home. It is reported to be about the size of a house.
The exhibition runs through October 26. However, Juri Steiner, the director of the Klee center, is not sure if the shit will be back on display at the exhibit.
