Manhattan Memories: Soaring Towers and Park Visions of Jefferson Hayman and A.C. Webb explores how two artists, generations apart, are captivated by New York City. Hayman, an artist who lives just outside of the island, explores the themes of nostalgia, and memory in his photographs. His works incorporate vintage or handmade frames, making the works small mementos of Manhattan. His work will be presented alongside works from Cheekwood’s permanent collection of etchings, drawings and paintings of cityscapes by A.C. Webb.
