The new episode of “Crossroads of Rockland History” is now available for streaming!

Topic: The life and artistic legacy of the late Sidney A. Simon (1917–1997).

Broadcast originally aired Monday, April 18, at 9:30 am, on 1700AM WRCR Radio

Or on any major Podcast platform (Apple, Stitcher, etc.)

_____

On the occasion of an exhibition of Simon's works at the Blue Hill Art and Cultural Center (Pearl River, NY), two of Simon's children, Teru Simon and Mark Simon, joined Clare Sheridan to share memories of their father, his art, his life and their own recollections of growing up in Rockland County.

About the artists: Sidney Simon was an American painter, sculptor, muralist, art school cofounder (Skowhegan), and American Official War Artist. One of his sculptures, the Four Seasons Fountain Sculpture, is located at One Worldwide Plaza in New York City. A small maquette of this monument will be on display, along with other works by Simon, through Fall 2022 at the Blue Hill Art and Cultural Center.

Teru Simon is an artist working in the mediums of ceramics sculpture, pottery, painting, and prints. She attended Bennington College and received her undergraduate degree from UWW at Skidmore College and her masters in fine arts through Vermont Studio Center and Johnson State College. She spent more than thirty years teaching art to all ages in public and private schools and colleges and retired from teaching in 2011.

Mark Simon is a graduate of Brandeis University and the Yale School of Architecture. He worked in several architecture offices before being hired by Charles Moore, his former teacher and dean at Yale. They collaborated on a number of homes, and in 1978 Simon was named a partner at Moore Grover Harper, which eventually became Centerbrook Architects. Mark is a pioneer in the practice of “green” architecture, beginning with his design in 1973 of an Earth House that was built into a hillside and decades later continues to take advantage of the clean heating and cooling energy of terra firma. Today Mark’s practice ranges from private houses and highly crafted furniture to commercial, institutional, academic, and religious projects. His innovative design has been noted by Time Magazine and the New York Times, among others, and he is the recipient of 112 architectural awards, including the prestigious American Institute of Architects Architecture Firm Award received by Centerbrook received in 1998.
