16 of LHPYC Daniel J. O’Keefe • Fine Art 516-383-4000 • danieljokeefe.com The Art Gallery of Lighthouse Point Yacht Club is featuring artist Brice Marden for the 2024 Janurary issue of The Point Magazine. Brice Marden was born on October 15, 1938 in Westchester County, just north of New York City. He received a bachelor’s degree from Boston University in 1961 before attending Yale for his MFA. Marden was part of a historic class of artists to come out of Yale in the early 1960s, with professors that included Alex Katz and Jon Schueler and classmates that included Richard Serra, Chuck Close, Vija Celmins and Nancy Graves. These artists were on the cutting edge of their time; each forging separate paths of art-making in a collective sense. Brice Marden worked as a guard at the Jewish Museum and was there during its 1964 Jasper Johns’s retrospective; Johns’s work became a key influence for him. Marden’searly years in the city were also marked by spending time with notable folk singers, including Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger. He was married to Joan Baez’s sister, Pauline Baez, where he was introduced to the most popular artists. In 1966, Marden had his first solo exhibition, which was held at Bykert Gallery in Midtown Manhattan. He showed a series of monochromatic, oil-and-beeswax paintings—the choice of material was likely influenced by his exposure to Johns’s work—that were met with mixed reviews. That same year, the artist Dorothea Rockburne, a friend of Marden’s, helped him secure a job as a studio assistant to Robert Rauschenberg, a position he held for four years. Marden’s multicolored lined paintings are unique. He became well known for this intersecting method of line domination on canvas. Marden produced only one realistic painting of himself in his lifetime. He was a hightly regarded American artist known for his contributions to the minimalist and abstract expressionate movement. His collections of art exist world wide graceing a multitude of museums, private collections and public collections. He was one of my favorite artists and I have long been influenced by his work. He will be missed! Brice Marden passed away on August 9, 2023. Please feel free to contact Daniel J. O’Keefe at 516-383-4000 or email me at djokeefe3rd@att.net

18 Ginny Mermaid chef’s CORNER Happy New Year, LHPYC! With 2024 now here and many of us starting new dietary goals, we have released a brand-new menu for all of you to try! We are focused on high-quality ingredients and meals that are both delicious and healthy! In recent years, the culinary world has witnessed a significant shift towards more inclusive and health-conscious dining experiences. As individuals become increasingly mindful of their dietary choices, the demand for menus that cater to specific dietary needs has surged. Here at Shipwrecked, our menu embraces the principles of gluten-free and vegan cuisine and harnesses the power of anti-inflammatory ingredients to create a symphony of delectable dishes that nourish both body and soul. For those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease, dining out can often be a daunting experience. Our commitment to inclusivity is reflected in our wide array of gluten-free offerings that never compromise on taste. From artisanal quinoa salads to our indulgent Buffalo cauliflower, every dish is meticulously crafted to ensure that our guests with gluten restrictions can savor every bite without worry. Embracing a vegan lifestyle extends beyond mere dietary choices; it embodies a profound respect for the planet and all its inhabitants. Our menu pays homage to the rich tapestry of plant-based ingredients, transforming them into culinary masterpieces that captivate the senses. Whether it's the Kung Pao Noodles with our house-made peanut sauce or our Wild mushroom Bao Buns, our vegan offerings are a testament to the boundless creativity and innovation that thrives in plant-based cuisine. Each dish celebrates the inherent goodness of nature's bounty, inviting our guests to embark on a journey that is as compassionate as it is delicious. In a world where stress and inflammation often reign unchecked, the power of food as medicine has never been more pertinent. Our menu harnesses the potent anti-inflammatory properties of ingredients such as turmeric, ginger, mushrooms, garlic, and leafy greens to create a repertoire of dishes that satisfy the palate and promote holistic well-being. By embracing the principles of anti-inflammatory cuisine, we invite our guests to embark on a culinary odyssey that nurtures the body from within. Here at Shipwrecked, our menu stands as a small testament to the belief that exceptional dining experiences need not come at the expense of one's well-being. Whether you seek a gluten-free indulgence, a vegan delight, or an anti-inflammatory tonic, our chefs are dedicated to crafting a symphony of flavors that resonate with the soul. Join us as we celebrate the beauty of diversity, one nourishing plate at a time.
FITNESS & YOUTH Fitness Jeremy Martens Fitness & Youth Director Greetings, and Happy New Year, everyone! We've journeyed through yet another year together, and I'm profoundly thankful for all our members. The holiday season holds a special place at the Club, witnessing the return of many familiar faces from school or those who've traveled from up North for the remainder of the season. 2023 marked a year of tremendous growth and change for everyone, and I'm certain that 2024 will be equally remarkable for us all. As this time of year rolls in, the urge to get active and shed those extra holiday calories becomes palpable. I encourage you to step into our gym and engage in a workout! For those inclined towards group classes, I invite you to join us at 9 am every weekday morning in the studio nestled within the tennis pro-shop. Alternatively, if you seek a more personalized fitness regimen, kindly reach out to me, and we can arrange one-on-one personal training sessions. With our array of programs spanning tennis, fitness, and swimming, there's no excuse not to embrace movement in 2024!

I eagerly anticipate the continuation of many more exceptional Youth Events in the New Year. One particularly exciting announcement is the unveiling of our inaugural Character Brunch! Scheduled for January 20th, this event will offer your children the chance to meet the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow and sing along with Princess Elsa. 19

22 FROM THE MARINA Thank You for the Holiday Cheer! Exciting Cruise Group Boating Trips Ahead 2024 As we bid farewell to the holiday season and eagerly welcome the new year, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for the holiday cheer sent in for the marina. Your warmth, generosity, and festive spirit truly made this season special for all of us. Again, thank you to our sponsors, Anthony and Perla Mazzo, “East Marine” tenders. This was the best year ever with the great weather and the great job of all the participants who joined in. Your efforts have made our marina a vibrant and welcoming community; for that, we extend our sincere thanks. Great job for our drink makers for the dock hop as well. This group really knows how to get in the spirit. As we embark on this new year, we are excited to announce some upcoming boating trips that promise to be nothing short of exhilarating. With the holidays behind us, it's the perfect time to dust off your sails and set a course for unforgettable adventures on the water. Whether you're a seasoned sailor or just starting out, there's something for everyone to enjoy. However, while we eagerly anticipate these exciting boating trips, it's essential to prioritize safety and adhere to boating etiquette. Here are a few reminders to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for all: Be sure to read the WhatsApp channel for details or any changes. 1. Parking: Please remember to park your cars in designated parking slips by the tennis courts. This helps maintain order and ensures that everyone has equal access to parking spaces. On the east side of the building is pick-up drop-off only. Toni Merlino Marina Director 2. Loading and Unloading Zone: The loading and unloading zone is meant for quick and efficient transfers. To keep things running smoothly, please limit your time in this zone to a maximum of 15 minutes. This allows ample opportunity for all boaters to load and unload their belongings. 3. Safety First: Always prioritize safety while out on the water. Ensure you have all the necessary safety equipment, including life jackets, fire extinguishers, and distress signals. Familiarize yourself with local boating regulations and follow them diligently. 4. Respect Other Boaters: Be mindful of fellow boaters and their personal space. Maintain a safe distance from other boats, avoid excessive noise, and be considerate of their experience on the water. Adhering to these simple guidelines can create a harmonious and enjoyable environment for everyone at our marina. Once again, we extend our deepest gratitude for your incredible support and the holiday cheer that made our marina shine. Let's embrace the new year with excitement, safety, and camaraderie as we embark on unforgettable boating adventures together. Wishing you fair winds and smooth sailing, The Marina Team
