I don't think I shall go and see this exhibition, but the review is quite an impressive bit of vitriol:

Altmejd's collectors are probably rhinestone-bejewelled toads from another galaxy who keep humans as pets. Then there are the sex scenes. As far as I can tell, all the players are male, with the occasional winged being in the mix. Sometimes it's hard to tell sex from murder, or from a strenuous aerobics class that has got out of hand. It could all be a lot funnier and sculpturally a lot more interesting.

Funnily enough, I once wrote a seminar paper comparing the work of Damien Hirst and Gunther von Hagen which concluded, inevitably, that the former produces art and the latter, well, doesn't.
