Tresca Weinstein reports in the Times Union that a light show opens this week at the Thomas Cole National Historic Site in Catskill. Clerestory Lights, a group that brought “NightWood” to the Mount, writer Edith Wharton’s home in Lenox, Mass., last winter, is in a show called “Spring Lights,” on view through May 9. They use 450 glowing orbs, with a sound score by composer Greg Hanson using Cole’s writings voiced by actor Jamie Bell with lighting design by Chris Bocchiaro and Megan Kinneen. “Thomas Cole waxes so poetic about the nature that surrounds him in this particular place where he chose to make his home, and we wanted to bring some of that glory of nature and place that is so present during the day into a nighttime experience,” said Bocchiaro, creative director for the group. “It’s very much about blossoming and blooming, this resurgence of nature and of optimism after a long COVID winter.” “Spring Lights” also includes a film by artist Brian Kenny, projected on the wall of the Old Studio.
