Cary Liebowitz, under the moniker "Candy Ass," makes bold, self-effacing artworks that comment on the contemporary art market, kitsch, Jewish identity, and queerness. Embracing a wide range of styles and mediums from painting, photography, sculpture and ceramics, his works almost always include text. Often child-like in its scrawl, the text is confessional, irreverent, satirical, and poignant. Blasting the politics of the art world and his own neuroses, Liebowitz's work resonates with anyone who's ever felt like an outsider.
