I wonder if he is pretentious or just simple-minded. He probably thinks his works are really good.

Yes, but how do you like his work, really? Don't hold back.
I don't know that he is pretentious or simple-minded, as I'm not personally acquainted with him. I rather doubt he's either. He certainly has pushed some buttons here, which likely is exactly what he set out to do, and which means he succeeded rather brilliantly.
