Wexner Center Announces Upcoming Season, New Ticketing System
The Wexner Center today announced its winter/spring 2012 season, coinciding with the kickoff of the member presale period and the launch of a new ticketing system. Tickets to most shows are currently on sale only to Wexner Center members. Public tickets go on sale January 1.
Highlights of the performing arts season include a show by Argentine theater director Mariano Pensotti, January 19–22; the return of composer/musician Bill Frisell, with his latest collaboration with filmmaker Bill Morrison (The Great Flood), on March 31; five jazz shows set up cabaret-style in our Performance Space (including just-announced Grammy nominee Miguel Zenón); and a co-commissioned dance piece, Canyon, by returning choreographer John Jasperse, April 26–29. And for teens and tweens: Nearly Lear, March 9-10, is a one-woman show, a mischievous reimagining of King Lear.
Upcoming exhibitions include major touring shows featuring famed American sculptor David Smith (on view January 28–April 15) and Polish sculptor Alina Szapocznikow (May 19–August 5), along with gallery shows by filmmaker Sarah Morris and video artist Omer Fast, and a vibrant lobby installation by Ernst Caramelle. Film fans will want to check out the schedule of two popular returning series Cinema Latino in January and Field & Screen in February, along with the New Worlds: Immigration on Film series, a visit from experimental filmmaker Marie Losier (one of this year’s Residency Award artists), and the ever-popular Banff Mountain Film Festival in April, among many other classic and contemporary films from around the globe.
Also beginning today: Members (and, in a month, the general public) can purchase tickets to most Wexner Center events through tickets.wexarts.org, a convenient new platform that allows patrons to print their tickets at home; incur lower fees; purchase or renew memberships; offer one-time donations; and more.
