Chakaia Booker creates large-scale sculptures out of discarded truck, car, and bicycle tires. Formally inventive, rhythmic, and imbued with enormous presence, the works are at once lyrical and powerful. Both the scale and the light-absorbing quality of the rich black sculptures make them ideal for display in the outdoors.

Ten works are on exhibition in the museum building, three of which were created specifically for our exhibition. Seven others are sited in various locations throughout the Art Center landscape.
