7 Variations On You Can't Always Get What You Want
Santiago Cucullu with Martin Ayos
"Milwaukee-based artist Santiago Cucullu's large-scale installation transforms the Art Center's Education Wing through sprawling vinyl graphics, a series of illuminated commercial signs, and audio recordings. Based on the artist's collaboration with Buenos Aires writer and poet Martin Ayos, Cucullu's multi-faceted work charts the psychological and physical wanderings through an ambiguous cityscape. Santiago Cucullu is the first artist to participate in the Art Center's new series of site-specific temporary projects that re-define and challenge the architectural dynamics of the Education Wing."
