25 years? “It does seem crazy, doesn’t it?” Jennifer Lange, Curator of the Film/Video Studio Program at the Wexner Center for the Arts, can’t quite believe it’s been that long since the Wex first celebrated homegrown filmmaking with their Ohio Shorts program.

It’s fair to say that the current exhibition at the Wexner Center for the Arts is more focused on exploration than exposition; more inclined towards discovery than didactics.

Few artists have put as indelible a stamp on American culture of the last 20 years as Taylor Mac – who uses “judy” as a gender pronoun. Mac: a MacArthur Fellow and recipient of Bessie, Obie, and New York Drama Critics’ Circle awards to barely scratch the surface. Since 2017, Mac has returned to judy’s […]
