Fall Abundance

Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center had a full dance card this fall. It began with the show One Woman Sex and the City—a part of Oklahoma Contemporary’s 2018 Women in Performance series—and then the Celebration of Latino Culture featured dance, music, and visual-arts elements of Latin American heritage during Día de los Muertos, including Chris Ortiz: Portraits of Latinx Identity, a series of portraits from the photographer’s community in Kansas. Finally, the unveiling of Campbell Art Park’s latest installation, Erwin Redl’s Whiteout, opened with an artist’s talk before Redl flipped the switch on more than 500 LED bulbs. Whiteout is lit daily between six a.m. and midnight at Northwest Eleventh and Broadway, animating Oklahoma City’s Automobile Alley.
