The art presentation, Christo and Jeanne-Claude: Ocean Front, 50 Years Later and Eric Mack,July 13 - Dec 29,2024, was an art exhibition presented at the Newport Art Museum,76 Bellevue Avenue, Newport RI.The exhibit was organized by curator Dodie Kazanjian, and featured original collages, drawings, archival materials, and documentary photographs by Gianfranco Gorgoni. These pieces offered a comprehensive look at the artistic process behind the Ocean Front project, Christo and Jeanne-Claudes first public work on the East Coast. Ocean Front involved covering the cove at Newport's King's Beach with 150,000 square feet of white woven polypropylene floating fabric using a custom boom and rigging system. Already famous for their environmentally-scaled installations that reimagined dramatic landscapes, Ocean Front marked the duos pioneering effort to temporarily cover a part of the sea. In conjunction with the Ocean Front exhibition, the Museum also featured a commissioned installation by New York-based artist Eric N. Mack. Known for his dynamic use of textiles and found materials, Macks work engages directly with the legacy of Christo and Jeanne-Claude, echoing the innovative spirit of Ocean Front by exploring the boundaries of fabric, form, and space.Presented in partnership with Newport Art Museum, the exhibit revisited the groundbreaking 1974 installation and highlighted what attracted Christo and Jeanne-Claude to Newport - the citys rich maritime history and architectural heritage provided a perfect canvas for their transformative vision. 13170 The art presentation, The Great Elephant Migration, July 4 - Sept 2, 2024, was an public, outdoor art exhibition presented at four locations in Newport, RI: Salve Regina University, Great Friends Meeting House, Roughpoint, and The Breakers.
