In Support of Unstables Pleasures: An Interview With Carlos Cruz-Diez

The Art Press Asia

What of what we see and touch has not itself been seen or touched by histories of experiment and fabrication? How much of our perception is not in some way mediated by technology? How can art involve itself in these truths, and as a consequence bring its viewers into dialogue with themselves too? This is the vernacular according to Carlos Cruz-Diez: our lives unfold as a series of events, each and every one of which embedded in the sensorial and material realms. Just as importantly, his art suggests, we are active participants in these events, able to occupy the position of our choosing.
