Wildfire Test Pit

August 30, 2016 - June 12, 2017 -For this exhibiton, Fred Wilson has a dual practice of studio-made or fabricated works and commissioned museum-specific installations created with the institutions’ own collections. At the Allen Memorial Art Museum, Wilson designs one of his signature site-specific installations using the museum’s collection and several loaned items, including from the Oberlin College Archives and the special collections of the Oberlin College Library. Returning the King Sculpture Court to its classical roots, he creates an illusory space of ruin and redemption. Wilson weaves together objects and historical narratives that have flowed in and through Oberlin College over its 183-year history.
