More from the Cambridge River Festival!
Swampscott-based artist Ken Reker, will create an environmental sculpture that floats on the Charles River. For Robin, All Style No Substance, is a 13’ by 14’ traditional gilded frame that floats upright on recycled water bottles, which will act as pontoons. With each twist and turn of the River’s current, the ever-changing environment will be framed within its empty void. It is likely that each one of the 100,000 festivalgoers will see a unique “picture” framed by Reker’s installation.
We arrived in time to see them heave the frame up onto its water-bottle base, and the girls helped them get it into the river...



And this pic is a "Yeah! We have committed art! We rock!" pic, but I'll use it for another purpose...

Yeah! Last day of school!
