    As part of the city-wide celebration Philagrafika 2010, the Arthur Ross Gallery will present a site-specific installation by Miler Lagos, a contemporary Colombian artist. Lagos is a multi media with an interest in relating different socioeconomic environments - urban and popular - and re-appropriating the different visual and social phenomena that emerge in each context. He uses a variety of modern materials, plastics, steel, cement and recycled paper. The artist will create this unique installation on site at Penn, using nearly 4 tons of recycled newspapers from which he will sculpt a forest of trees. Lagos will offer a gallery talk during his residency. Related programming is being planned with Philagrafika.
