<p>Details follow.</p>
<blockquote><p>Topping what appears to be Poots's wish list is a spring show by L.A. artist Paul McCarthy, known for his scatological videos and performances, to fill the venue's 55,000-square-foot Drill Hall. It would have a $1.4-million budget and feature a site-specific work "by arguably America's leading sculptor," according to the draft document. The show would be "overwhelming, brutal, breathtaking, shocking, transcendental, unforgettable." A parenthetical note, "curated by HUO and AP," indicates that the ubiquitous Hans Ulrich Obrist will be in the mix.</p></blockquote>
<p>The Armory has indeed <a href="http://www.galleristny.com/2012/02/my-beautiful-19th-century-gothic-revival-fantasy/">been ambitious lately</a>.
