Robert Wilson

The Deafening Character Of Silence... The modern pantheon of theatre styles reflects how rapidly art and culture evolved in the 20th century. The era gave birth to some of the finest theatre artists we will ever know, including today's special guest, Robert Wilson. Wilson holds many titles; he's a director, designer, actor, sculpture, author, drawer, and more. He is, in the true sense, an artist. His creative abilities are as endless as the conversations spurred by his iconic productions. He is revered for his masterful interplay of light and shadow, movement and stillness, sound and silence. During SCAD deFINE ART 2020, Wilson enthralled the SCAD community with a performative lecture and rare insight into his creative process. Paula Wallace sat with Wilson after the performance to further discuss his aesthetic, his formative background, and methods for constructing powerful moments onstage.
