Scene Shift: The Exhibit
Curated by Maureen Weiss and Sibyl Wickersheimer
Fisher Museum of Art, Los Angeles
Scene Shift: The Exhibit is a chance for the audience to get up close and personal with the work of contemporary scenic designers. Every designer has a different story to tell, sometimes that story is translated into art, and sometimes it is theatre.
