Perhaps the world’s foremost avant-garde theater artist, Robert Wilson (born 1941) ranges across opera, theater, visual arts, video, furniture and set design in his pursuit of astounding multimedia spectacles. Susan Sontag wrote of his career, “It has the signature of a major artistic creation. I can’t think of any body of work as large or as influential.” Wilson’s legendary operatic work with Philip Glass, Einstein on the Beach, upended operatic conventions, and Wilson has also left his mark on masterworks of the classical and modern repertoires, from The Magic Flute to Madame Butterfly, Lulu to The Threepenny Opera, and in theater from Hamlet to Orlando and Happy Days.
