#TBT: Thirteen years ago, we presented &ldquo;Paul McCarthy&rdquo; (February 22&mdash;May 13&amp;#160;2001) an exhibition which examined the artist&rsquo;s groundbreaking fusion of sculpture with performance. &nbsp;Dan Cameron, the Museum&rsquo;s Senior Curator at the time, explains how McCarthy&rsquo;s &ldquo;characters and settings are a universal repository of the fears, obsessions, and conflicts that face the human species at an evolutionary crossroads.&rdquo; The exhibition featured a video and installation he collaborated on with Mike Kelley called Heidi: Midlife Crisis Trauma Center and Negative Media-Engram Abreaction Release Zone.
