Best of 2016: The Wex in pictures

When architect Peter Eisenman designed the Wexner Center in the late 1980s, he had no way of knowing that his grid motif would work like catnip in the age of Instagram. Countless photographers, amateur and pro, have been drawn to snap the building and share it on social media. Here are 10 of our favorite images from 2016 of the grid, the galleries and other things Wex, taken by staff and visitors. We could easily fill another page with more beautiful images from this year. If you want to share any shots in the new year, tag your Wexner Center pics with @wexarts to be sure we'll see them.

 

An illustration of amazing timing.

 

The tower's a popular spot for pictures. The extra towering element is a nice touch.

 

Everyone loves Wex Drive-In.

Love how this captures some of the beauty of Manual Cinema's piece, and how the company allows audience members to play with its toys after the show.

Caught in the act of a stop at the reading space.

 

One of many cool pics captured during an @igcbus Instameet at the Wex in March.

 

Charles, a Wex security guard, is looking good next to Noah Purifoy's Office Chair.

 

As the photographer noted, someone's really "in to" this Ruth Asawa sculpture in Leap Before You Look.

 

Ending on a beautifully warped note with this great 360 shot. Thanks for the pictures, and keep them coming.
