Seth Wulsin (born April 15, 1981 in Spring Valley, NY) is an independent journalist [1] and contemporary artist working primarily with space, time and light through large-scale, site-specific, ephemeral sculpture, drawing and architectural performance.[2] He is a member of the art collective Artistas en Latino America.
Wulsin is best known for the work, 16 Tons, Prison Demolition,[3] a massive public piece in Buenos Aires, Argentina, that worked with the demolition of the infamous Caseros Prison between 2005 and 2009.[2]
In 2010, Wulsin's work was thrown into the spotlight when a sculpture from his counter-surveillance oriented Time Drops in Decay series, consisting of higher-dimensional internally reflecting mirror objects, was broken by then-Mayor of Buenos Aires Mauricio Macri (who later became president of Argentina) on a televised tour of the art fair ArteBA.[4] Artist and filmmaker, Joshua Sandler, used the ensuing scandal as raw material for a documentary film called Who gives A Shit About Art? critiquing the intersection of art, politics and capital.[5] Wulsin's work Wishing Well, an expansion on the Time Drops series, was exhibited at Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art in 2011.
