Ariel Cusnir (Buenos Aires, 1981) will perform an intervention in the Museo Moderno building, from the façade to the reception hall, unfolding like a fantastical narrative: a brief tale on a grand scale. For Cusnir, the project represents an expanded challenge and an upward shift in scale of production, taking as its starting point his small watercolours inspired by nature, science fiction and anachronistic references to the narrative of Argentinian history. By taking watercolour – a medium that evokes freshness and fluidity – to the scale of a mural that will occupy common spaces at the museum, Cusnir will envelop visitors in a natural world full of delicacy and wonder, and where the everyday can become immense. With references to diverse natural environments and featuring plants, rivers and ants, this is a unique work that will welcome visitors to the Museo Moderno.
