Alexis Rockman: Naples: Course of Empire

Embarking on expeditions to distant locations like Antarctica and Madagascar in the company of professional naturalists, his work tells stories of natural histories confronting the challenging future of the biodiversity crisis, global warming, and genetic engineering. Rockman’s work has been exhibited around the world and showcased at prestigious galleries and museums including the Venice Biennale, Carnegie Museum of Art, Smithsonian American Art Museum, and Serpentine Galleries. Rockman worked on the 2012 movie Life of Pi with Ang Lee as “Inspirational Artist.” Recent exhibitions include Alexis Rockman: Oceanus, a major exhibition that premiered at Mystic Seaport Museum in 2023 and is now touring. Mark Dion and Alexis Rockman: Journey to Nature’s Underworld, the first two-person exhibition of these closely allied artists, had five museum venues in the U.S.. Vertigo at Massimo De Carlo in Paris and Feedback Loop at Jack Shainman Gallery in New York City both opened in January 2026.
