CAROLE FEUERMAN – SEAPORT NEW YORK
After a year on Park Avenue, five of Carole Feuerman’s iconic swimmers can be seen at the Seaport in New York City.
They will be there until the end of November 2024. 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.
