JOHN WATERS-“Old Chickens Make Good Soup.”

Although Waters has been playing his devious trick since the sixties, it still works ingeniously! A lovely viewer discharged the electric question “honestly, how can this be art?” All I could wish was that John Waters would have come around with the response “Old Chickens Make Good Soup,” the title of another one of the works on display. But the prankster was too busy twirling around the giant human knot in his red Issey Miyake suit admiring the scene. A fellow groupie mentions to him that he had worn this same suit at another event. Waters replies with a revealing sparkle in his eye “Oh, did I? Well you know we are in a recession.” Under the Buscemi-like smile so well framed by the thin mustache, one reads exactly what follows… “and you are the butt of the joke.”
