Cape Ann Museum 特展《This Other Eden》11月14日开幕：60幅照片记录 Gloucester 的 Stage Fort Park
马萨诸塞州 Gloucester 的 Cape Ann Museum 特展《This Other Eden》于11月14日星期六在博物馆的 Pleasant Street 园区开幕，展出摄影师 Anne Rearick 过去数年拍摄的60幅照片。
照片的拍摄地是 Gloucester 的 Stage Fort Park。展览将持续至2027年3月21日。这座占地60英亩的海滨公园是400多年前当地聚落的所在地，园内有海滩、野餐桌、遮阴树木、巨大的花岗岩巨石，以及一座带临水门廊和摇椅的游客中心。公园自1898年起向公众开放。
Rearick 是获奖纪录片摄影师。她在公园里记录了海边的安静时刻，也记录了家庭野餐聚会的节日场面，画面涉及婚礼、历史重演、音乐会，以及来自多国的移民社区。她曾遇到十余名曾与美军在阿富汗共事的阿富汗男子在岩石上铺毯聚餐，并受邀加入。
Rearick 说，受访家庭来自叙利亚、波多黎各、巴勒斯坦、多米尼加共和国、Türkiye、阿富汗和危地马拉等地。她写道，在移民担忧被美国移民与海关执法局针对的时期，几乎所有被询问者都同意让她拍照。
博物馆馆长 Oliver Barker 表示，Stage Fort Park 是海边一处集休闲、休憩与聚会于一体的熟悉景观，Rearick 的作品把公园变成观察地方故事与人群的窗口，涉及归属、流离与共享空间等跨越世代的问题。
Rearick 是 Guggenheim Fellowship 得主，在 Cambridge School of Weston 教授摄影，已出版8本纪实摄影著作，长期项目包括法国巴斯克地区与后种族隔离时代的南非。她在 Gloucester 居住近30年。
展览标题出自莎士比亚剧作《Richard II》中 John of Gaunt 的临终独白，他把心爱的英格兰称为「另一个伊甸园」。Rearick 写道，这组照片是她写给这处属于所有人的地方的一封情书。

Cape Ann Museum Opens 'This Other Eden' on November 14: 60 Photographs of Stage Fort Park in Gloucester
The Cape Ann Museum in Gloucester, Massachusetts, opened the special exhibition 'This Other Eden' on Saturday, November 14, at its Pleasant Street campus, showing 60 photographs taken over the past few years by photographer Anne Rearick.
The photographs were made at Stage Fort Park in Gloucester. The exhibition runs through March 21, 2027. The 60-acre oceanfront park is home to a historic settlement begun more than 400 years ago, along with beaches, picnic tables, shaded trees, enormous granite boulders, and a visitor center with rocking chairs on its expansive water-facing porch. The park has been open to the public since 1898.
Rearick is an award-winning documentary photographer. In the park she captured quiet moments by the sea as well as festive times when families gather to picnic, including weddings, historical reenactments, concerts, and visitors from many immigrant communities. On one day she came upon a group of Afghan men who had worked with the American military in Afghanistan, gathered on rugs on the rocks with a feast, and they invited her to join them.
Rearick said the families who trusted her with their photographs came from Syria, Puerto Rico, Palestine, the Dominican Republic, Türkiye, Afghanistan, and Guatemala, among other places. She wrote that nearly everyone she asked agreed to be photographed, at a time when immigrants fear being targeted by ICE and deported.
Museum Director Oliver Barker said Stage Fort Park is a familiar landscape of recreation, respite, and gathering at the edge of the sea, and that through Rearick's work the park becomes a lens for considering stories of place and the people who shape it, including questions of belonging, displacement, and shared space.
Rearick, a Guggenheim Fellowship recipient, teaches photography at the Cambridge School of Weston and has published eight books of documentary work, including extended projects in the French Basque country and post-apartheid South Africa. She has lived in Gloucester for nearly 30 years.
The exhibition's title comes from Shakespeare's 'Richard II,' in which John of Gaunt on his deathbed calls his beloved England 'this other Eden.' Rearick wrote that the photographs are her love letter to a place that belongs to everyone.
