Uoo once hosted a roving party called Xtapussy. Today he's an art-world darling whose diverse work -- from homoerotic watercolors to cyberpunk mannequins of the Sex and the City gals, ruptured and spilling their innards -- scored him a show at the Whitney Museum of American Art this past summer. As Ross Leonardy, writing in DIS Magazine, said in August, "This is exactly what contemporary painting needs for a relevancy reboot."
