I’m thrilled to be heading to Columbus, OH where we’ll be performing 32 Sounds as part of a retrospective of my work at the Wexner Center for the Arts!

The retrospective starts on Wednesday, September 28 with a screening of The Rainbow Man/John 3:16. This was my first film, and I finished as a resident at the Wexner’s Film/Video Studio (my first of several residencies at the Wex!). I’m very excited to bring the film back to Columbus and to celebrate my long relationship with the great folks at the Wexner.

We perform 32 Sounds the next night (with free popcorn before and a Q&A after!), and then later in October there are screenings of The Weather Underground and The Universal Language and other shorts.
