Macaulay Culkin is now an artist – and you can tell by his pants

Macaulay Culkin looked like he was part of an art project on the streets of New York City earlier this week, wearing paint-splattered jeans that give us flashbacks of bad ’80s fashion. But the former child star has a good reason to be rocking the painter look: he’s been focusing on a career as an artist – and is so serious about it that he’s converted his Manhattan apartment into an art studio.
Still looking thin but not emaciated, Culkin – who in addition to messy, ripped jeans was also wearing a leather jacket and some Johnny Depp-style weathered boots – puffed on a cigarette while trying to evade photographers on Thursday. The “Home Alone†star ended up jumping into a cab, which sped off … perhaps to an art supply store?
For the last year, Culkin has been working with his friends Adam Green and Toby Goodshank on an art exhibit called “Leisure Inferno,†which recently opened and is showing until December at the gallery Le Poisson Rouge. While prepping for the show, the guys – who call themselves Three Men and a Baby (3MB) – converted Culkin’s $2 million apartment into an art studio.
"We cleared out everything, laid down plastic, and went little nuts at the art supply store," the 32-year-old said in a video he shot with Green and Goodshank, who are both in the indie band Moldy Peaches. As for the inspiration for their art, he added, "We use a lot of iconography from our youths and stuff like that: ‘The Masters of the Universe,’ or Korn, or whatever. … The sillier and the funner, the better.â€
