From Park Avenue to the Seaport
By Carole A. Feuerman
The Sea Idylls art installations are no longer on view at the Seaport. Stay tuned for more upcoming experiences.
After a year on Park Avenue, 5 of Carole Feuerman’s iconic swimmers move to the Seaport until the end of 2024. This historic neighborhood, considered the cradle of America, provides the ideal backdrop for the monumental works of the superrealist sculptor. Overlooking the East River and with the Brooklyn Bridge as a backdrop, this open-air exhibition offers – to tourists and New Yorkers alike – a walk imbued with aquatic poetry.

CAROLE A. FEUERMAN’S SWIMMERS
Carole A. Feuerman’s passion for water and the ocean stems from her childhood memories spent at the beach. The beach became her sanctuary—a place of escape and tranquility. Through her sculptures, she explores classicism and beauty, which are taboo subjects in contemporary art. While the outward appearance of her swimmers is often one of beauty and tranquility, their elegant faces conceal a deeper meaning of heroism, triumph and liberation.
