Lyndhurst opens ~The Paula Hayes Garden~ as part as a restoration of the Hudson River Overlook.

My Opnion: We at Fineartmagazineblog.blogspot receive many emails for this page. The Lyndhurst ~Paula Hayes Garden ~ looks like is wil be more that worth the visit. This is a stunning environment and holds a new installation of art as part of the landscape. Public art enhancement opens a new window of imagination to the world. Jamie Forbes, Publisher, Fineartmagazineblog.blog.blogspot.com Have a happy art Friday,  Sunstormfineartmagazine.com 

Lyndhurst Unveils The Paula Hayes Garden, a Permanent Land-Art Installation by the Artist Surrounding the Restored Hudson River Overlook, Now on View at the Historic Hudson River Estate The Paula Hayes Garden, set above the Hudson River at the historic estate, is the first publicly accessible landscape ever created by the celebrated artist Photos courtesy of Lyndhurst Mansion. Lyndhurst Mansion, the National Historic Landmark overlooking the Hudson River, is pleased to introduce to the public The Paula Hayes Garden, a permanent land-art installation by sculptor and land artist Paula Hayes, enveloping a recently restored Hudson River Overlook terrace, which explores issues of sustainability and climate change. Completed in May 2026 and now on view to visitors, the extensive garden of native plants and grasses arranged as a loose mandala is set with five of Hayes’ signature garden sculptures and is the first publicly accessible landscape by Hayes, whose commissions have until now been private. The garden surrounds the recently restored overlook terrace, a raised platform providing panoramic views of the Hudson River originally constructed in 1905 by philanthropist Helen Gould, daughter of railroad baron Jay Gould. An avid naturalist, Helen Gould built the overlook as a magical landscape feature, perched on the branches of an espaliered white birch tree, to be used by her nieces and adopted children and serving as a breezy outdoor summer office prior to the introduction of air conditioning for Gould herself. The overlook vanished from the landscape in 1956, and the weeping European white birch around which it was originally built could not be replanted due to climate change. Reconstructed from historic photographs and archaeological evidence, the restored overlook became the occasion for Lyndhurst to invite Hayes to reimagine the surrounding landscape. The three-year commission places her in direct dialogue with the picturesque tradition of the existing historic landscape, much of it designed in the 1860s as a private Central Park. Hayes’s work proposes a “new picturesque” for the twenty-first century, rooted in ecology rather than ornament. Installed in two phases, beginning with a pollinator garden of native plantings in 2025 and completed with the landscape and sculpture program in May 2026, The Paula Hayes Garden is composed entirely of native, pollinator-friendly species, many of them selected from early twentieth-century garden supply catalogues in Lyndhurst's own collection. Flowing bands of grasses move in the breeze and change with the seasons, creating vital habitat for birds, bees, and small animals while serving as an open-air gallery for five original sculptures by the artist. A mandala of native plants reads as a meadow from the footpath; seen from above from the Overlook terrace itself, its colored circles come into full view. The installation weaves through the estate's existing pathways between the mansion and the historic bowling alley, choreographing the visitor's experience in a picturesque manner typical of 19th-century landscape design. Traditional landscape elements leading into and out of the Overlook Garden were also restored at the time. A large weeping beech and a hedge of mock orange screen the overlook before a full panoramic reveal; a bench beneath an existing tree faces a contemplative birdbath by the artist, the same model displayed in The Museum of Modern Art's Sculpture Garden, here realized in a custom purple colorway that echoes the color of mature grasses; a grove of flowering shrubs shelters a whimsical garden gnome in bronze, its pointed caps recalling traditional Victorian garden figures and echoing the spires of the imposing Gothic Revival mansion looming above it. Three of Hayes's signature Gazing Globes — transparent polycarbonate spheres encasing upcycled radio components, vintage technology, and a “fairy dust” of pulverized CDs, illuminated from within — reinterpret the gazing balls of Victorian gardens while reflecting on technology's place in the natural world. “The Paula Hayes Garden allows us to place an exhibition of contemporary art outdoors in the landscape where it can be experienced by those who might not be interested in visiting a traditional white cube gallery space,” noted Howard Zar, Lyndhurst’s Executive Director. “While Hayes’ pieces work as contemporary art of the highest caliber, they are also extremely accessible, reaching the broadest array of visitors. As a piece of public art, we wanted something that appealed both to the cognoscenti and to those who don’t consider themselves art aficionados. What Hayes has created is simply magical.” “The magical Lyndhurst commission allowed me to incorporate many of the touchstones of my aesthetic practice into one expansive work and make them available to the public,” said Hayes. “I have always been interested in the interplay of the sculptural quality of plants with sculpture and how such forms as the mandala serve as vessels for our experience and understanding. The purple color of the manmade cast birdbath in harmony with the same color of little bluestem grasses and coneflowers reflects the harmony of manmade and natural elements that I seek to achieve in my works.” The grounds are open to visitors seven days a week, 9:30 AM–5:00 PM. Visitors arriving by vehicle may purchase a grounds pass and traverse the property at their own pace. Visitors may also access the property for free from the Old Croton Aqueduct and Westchester RiverWalk trails, which both traverse the property. Also on view in Lyndhurst mansion is an exhibition of five paintings by contemporary artist Marc Dennis. Dennis’s work is heavily influenced by the practices of the 19th-century academy, and his paintings are placed in conversation throughout Lyndhurst mansion with the types of paintings that influenced his contemporary style. His five paintings can be seen in the Lyndhurst entry hall, parlor, stair hall, and grand picture gallery. Lyndhurst mansion can only be visited by guided tour. Tickets can be purchased in advance at www.lyndhurst.org. The Paula Hayes Garden arrives as Lyndhurst celebrates the 60th anniversary of its opening to the public, and inaugurates a multi-year reinvigoration of the estate’s landscape. Beginning in August 2026, Lyndhurst will undertake the restoration of its rose and perennial gardens and the reinstallation of historic garden furnishings, including a Louis Comfort Tiffany birdbath, a Pan sculpture by Frederick MacMonnies, and Roman sarcophagi.

About Paula Hayes Paula Hayes (American, b. 1958) was born in Concord, Massachusetts, and lives and works in Athens, New York, in the Hudson Valley. She earned a BS from Skidmore College (1987) and an MFA from Parsons School of Design (1989). Hayes has produced numerous commissioned public and private landscapes and has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Aspen Art Museum; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; and the Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus, Ohio. Her Gazing Globes were presented in Madison Square Park, New York, in 2015, and her Birdbath was displayed in MoMA's Sculpture Garden in 2017–18. She was nominated for the Cooper Hewitt National Design Award in Landscape Design (2009) and Design Mind (2011). Earlier this month, her newest installation opened at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas. Her work is held in collections including The Museum of Modern Art, the Lever House Collection, and The Tang Teaching Museum. www.paulahayes.com About Lyndhurst Lyndhurst, a National Historic Landmark in Tarrytown, New York, is one of America's finest Gothic Revival estates. Designed in 1838 by architect Alexander Jackson Davis on a bluff above the Hudson River, the 67-acre estate was home to former New York City mayor William Paulding, merchant George Merritt, and railroad magnate Jay Gould, whose daughter Helen shaped its landscape in the early twentieth century. Bequeathed to the National Trust for Historic Preservation by Anna Gould in 1961, the estate opened to the public in 1965 and remains a site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Lyndhurst is where the Hudson Valley begins.  www.lyndhurst.org Visitor Information Lyndhurst, 635 South Broadway, Tarrytown, NY 10591.

Galactic Dust Sunsets: Artistic impressions, Science, and the Cosmos. 

“The atoms of our bodies are traceable to stars that manufactured them in their cores and exploded these enriched ingredients across our galaxy, billions of years ago. For this reason, we are biologically connected to every other living thing in the world. We are chemically connected to all molecules on Earth. And we are atomically connected to all atoms in the universe. We are not figuratively, but literally stardust.” ― Neil deGrasse Tyson

Figure 1Jamie Forbes, Galactic Dust SunSet Series, photograph, 2023

My “Galactic Dust Sun Set Series” captures exact moments in time observed in photographs emphasizing the poignant beauty illuminating the landscape taken at moment of the day’s final rays at sunset.  I recorded daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly cycles changes seen in the land-skyscapes.  The concept of galactic dust connecting me to the universe opened a doorway from which to view my observations reflected in Neil deGrasse Tyson’s quote above resonated in my core.  I became a part of a timeless interconnectedness to the landscape telling a story of the complex exchange between the natural world and the limits we impose upon it. Observing the environment, I employed John Muir as an environmentalist he states, “The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness’’.  My forest comprised of rays of light emerging at sunset displayed the transformations seen in the light.
