The Big Ideas for our 09-10 Season

Artists today are reflecting our crazy world back to us trying to capture our attention, make us think, force us to care. We searched the world and scoured the Bay Area for artists with something to say and then we listened to them. When we sat back and thought about all the artists and programs we were considering for the upcoming season, we began to see some common themes running through the works. We talked. We thought. We debated. Out of these conversations we culled three Big Ideas that seem to be top of mind for artists today.
