MATTHEW McCASLIN'S
Mixed Metaphors

The Center for Visual Art and Culture is proud to present the work of
Matthew McCaslin who is internationally known for his sculptures and
installations incorporating industrial materials electronic equipment and
video. McCaslin employs a lexicon of electric outlets, labyrinths of cables
and conduit, safety lights, clocks, fans, radios, and other everyday
appliances.  His works operates specifically in the expanded context of the
psychological, social and architectural landscape, by  literally and
metaphorically invoking the technological mediation of our everyday lives
and experiences.

In 1998 and 1999 a large exhibition traveled to  museums in Switzerland,
Germany and California, accompanied by a catalogue, Works - Sites, which
serves as a comprehensive mid-career documentation.

The Atrium Gallery is located in the
Art's  Building , 875 Coventry Rd. Storrs, Conn.
