Alexis Rockman: Oceanus takes the viewer on a global journey of
discovery beneath the world s changing seas, through the artist s
ethereal and sublime renderings of real and imaginary marine life
within a fragile ecosystem. Published to accompany an ambitious
traveling exhibition in North America and abroad, this volume
documents Rockman s newly executed 8 x 24-foot panoramic painting
Oceanus and ten related large watercolors, important works that
tell the story of humanity s indelible relationship with the ocean
and the connections between the sea and our own survival, as the
artist deftly weaves natural history, art history, archaeology,
adventure, political analysis, and science into a story about the
human condition. Complementing this stunning presentation of
Rockman s paintings as well as many details and photographs
documenting the artist s process, along with a rich selection of
contextual imagery are essays by leading writers and scholars on
such topics as maritime and oceanic history and Rockman s work
within the larger context of art history.
