Class Fool (1976)

His work is often an exercise in abjection and self-humiliation and an exorcism of infantile feelings that sometimes involve grotesque forms of female drag and a fair amount of physical pain. In ''Class Fool'' of 1976, Mr. McCarthy holds a doll between his legs, and hops about on a ketchup-slicked floor, his feet regularly and violently slipping out from under him.
