Spring 2025 Exhibitions and Related Events

Experience interactive installations by Nancy Holt and Maria Hupfield and related programs at the Wex.

This spring’s exhibitions focus on the complex relationships we have with our surroundings, the past, mythologies, and one another. Nancy Holt and Maria Hupfield work across multiple art forms, including sculpture, performance, installation, and video. They encourage us to think about what sustains everyday life, how we impact the environment, who gets to create art, why artists use certain materials, and what is possible when systems are questioned—be that the ways we heat and light our buildings, rules of sport, land ownership, Western art traditions, or how we encounter art and architecture. They invite us to interact with their work for more in-depth understanding.

While you're here, through the beginning of April you can relax on large-scale, bright-colored modular furniture by Outpost Office that both complements and contrasts the iconic Wexner Center building.

Visit throughout the spring to explore the themes that are central to the artists’ practices with related talks, film screenings, and performances.
