EN PLEIN AIR brings to the stage the aesthetics
and themes of early American Impressionism, the lives
of impressionist artists and impressionist paintings
through the immersion of movement, text, light and
sound. EN PLEIN AIR is lit by animated video projections of
the exhibition paintings—providing an ever changing landscape
of Giverny and Old Lyme where a Painter Pierrot travels in
search of the light, his muse and the good advices of Claude
Monet.

Florence Griswold Museum's Director of Education and Outreach.
TENSION IS THE
GREAT INTEGRITY—Christopher
Eaves has created a playful and provocative exposé of
his life and times as an artist and educator. Inspired by
American visionary R. Buckminster Fuller's concept of 'tensegrity'
and fueled by a decade of experiences both in the classroom
and on the stage, TENSION IS THE GREAT INTEGRITY reveals
how the identification and utilization of 'artistic tensegrity'
supports artists and educators alike.
