Born in Cleveland, Daniel Arsham blurs the lines between architecture, art, and performance. His current installation, Reach Ruin, is a collaboration with Philadelphia's Fabric Workshop and Museum. As with all Arsham's work, the work on display subverts structure. However, rather than playing directly with the museum walls, as he often does, in Philadelphia Arsham is showing sculptural works that investigate the internal makeup of the materials in use.

Reach Ruin is on view through March 2013.
