For this edition of WexCast, we’re sharing the spirited panel discussion Expanding the Field: Sports and Culture, which took place at the Wexner Center for the Arts on March 22, 2018 and focused on the intersection of sports, art, and culture. Moderated by our own Director of Film/Video, Dave Filipi, the talk included input from Ohio State Department of Human Sciences Professor Samuel Hodge and two distinguished, nationally recognized Columbus artists: Carmen Winant, installation artist and author of the new book My Birth, and Hanif Abdurraqib, author of the critically acclaimed essay collection They Can’t Kill Us Until They Kill Us. Each have athletic backgrounds and respectively, they touch on the role sports play on society and in their individual practices. Carmen’s work was recently featured at the Wexner Center as part of the summer 2017 exhibition Gray Matters, and Hanif’s book can be found at the Wexner Center Store.
