Jerry Beck and The Revolving MuseumFor FPAC’s newest public floating art project in Fort Point Channel, artist Jerry Beck and The Revolving Museum respond to the coral reef crisis with Creation Coral Reef. Coral reefs are one of the planet’s most beautiful and diverse ecosystems, but alarmingly, coral reefs are in crisis, dying at an astonishing rate from environmental problems such as global warming, pollution, and over fishing.
