ROBERTO LUGO Ghetto Garniture: Wu Tang Worcester through October 12
In this solo installation, Lugo explores eclecticism and culture by
juxtaposing street graffiti, European decorative patterning, and rich
symbolism drawn from his Puerto Rican heritage. He creates a hybrid of
visual art traditions and stimulates new conversations around cultural
tolerance. The show features Lugo’s work created during his artist
residency at Project Art.
Open daily in Aug 11–5, fall 11–5 Wed–Sun.
