Upon a Painted Ocean: An Ode to the California Coast Interviews

[/fusion_title][fusion_text]

The Irvine Museum Collection at the University of California, Irvine presents “Upon a Painted Ocean: An Ode to the California Coast.” Our tribute to the California Coast is entitled Upon a Painted Ocean, in reference to Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s epic poem about the sea, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, published in 1798. The exhibition includes scenes of the Santa Catalina Island, Coronado Beach, the rocky cliffs of Big Sur, views of San Francisco Bay, and two historic vistas of Crystal Cove, one of which shows the cove as a movie set, used as such since the early 1920s.

The exhibit is on display from November 10, 2018 – March 30, 2019.

Chevalier de L’Ordre des Arts Award

[/fusion_title][fusion_text]

Jean Stern, Executive Director of the Irvine Museum Collection at the University of California, Irvine, received the prestigious Chevalier de L’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters) award this fall.

The award honors those who have made important contributions to the arts in France or to France’s cultural and artistic legacy. Established by the Minister of Culture in 1957 and confirmed by President Charles de Gaulle in 1963, it is the most significant arts-specific honor conferred by the French government. In receiving the award, Mr. Stern joins the company of cultural forces like T.S. Eliot, Philip Glass, Václav Havel, Rudolf Nureyev, Marion Cotillard, and Meryl Streep.

The Irvine Museum Collection at the University of California, Irvine is home to a significant collection of California Impressionist works, which Mr. Stern explains are an important descendant of the larger Impressionist movement. In exhibits, and in the museum’s seventeen published works on California Impressionist style and history, “we stress that it’s an extension of French Impressionism,” he says. An exhibit from the museum, called Masters of Light, toured in Paris, Krakow, and Madrid from 2002 to 2004, gave visitors a firsthand look at France’s cultural and artistic influence in California.

The French Consul presented the award to Mr. Stern during a medal ceremony at the museum, in mid-September.
