Spotlight | WHAT TO SEE

ROCK CITY THERE’S ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW!

R ock City’s newest artful innovation, the Hall of the Mountain King project, weaves together nature and magic while building on the original folklore loved by Freida Utermoehlen Carter, co-founder of Rock City. The latest phase of the project includes Ibsen the Troll, a masterfully carved figurative structure, standing tall at the entrance to the realm, bracing the weight of the rock wall on his shoulders. Deep within the caverns, the troll king’s glimmering treasure lies beneath a towering waterfall. Just around the corner, a larger than-life, beautifully sculpted throne sits magnificently between a colorful array of cascading waters. Several local artists are continuing collaboration with Rock City’s senior manager of innovation, Will Jackson, and his team to use a variety of materials to bring a new level of enchantment to the gardens. Ibsen and the caverns he inhabits are inspired by the classical piece “In the Hall of the Mountain King” by composer Edvard Grieg, as well as Henrik Ibsen’s play, Peer Gynt.

Fall 2023

TENNESSEE AQUARIUM IMAX 3D THEATER ANCIENT CAVES 3D

D escending deep beneath the surface or submerged far below the waves lie extraordinary secrets hidden in the sprawl ing caverns and claustrophobic crannies of cave systems. These remarkable — and often alien — environments are unlike any other location on the planet and serve as the focal point for the Tennes see Aquarium IMAX 3D Theater’s latest feature Ancient Caves 3D , which explores how these subterranean habitats hold the key to better understanding climatic changes on the surface. “These deep underwater caves are other-worldly, like something straight out of a sci-fi film, and viewers can expect to see things they’ve never seen before,” says director and Emmy Award-winning cinematographer Jonathan Bird. “The film has something for everyone, whether it’s adventure, science, or just pure beauty.” Audiences plunge into a spelunking adventure with paleoclimatologist Dr. Gina Moseley as she ventures into the expansive underground worlds above and below the water in France, Iceland, the Bahamas, the U.S., and Mexico. Few humans have visited these remote caves, but Ancient Caves 3D offers audiences a rare chance to experience their majesty through stunning footage that captures their full breadth and scale.

Through the incredible resolution and sound of the theater’s IMAX with Laser audio-visual system, viewers will feel like they’re exploring these caves: SCUBA diving, climbing, crawling — and occasionally getting stuck — in search of geological clues to our planet’s distant past. For residents of the Tennessee Valley, in particular, this film touches on a geological fact of life. Dr. Bernie Kuhajda, an aquatic biologist with the Tennessee Aquarium Conservation Institute, has described this part of the country as “living atop a block of Swiss cheese.” “We live above a vast cave and karst region that is amazing to explore,” says Kuhajda. In addition to experiencing their spectacular geological formations, Kuhajda has snorkeled many cave systems to study aquatic animals that only can be found in these subterranean locales and whose existence can directly reflect the health of our water.

“We have cave fishes, cave shrimp, and cave crayfishes living in the pristine waters of caves across Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia,” he says. “They are environmental bell weathers of what’s happening to the groundwater that many people in the Southeast depend upon for drinking water.” Kuhajda says he believes providing an exciting opportunity to see the aquatic cave systems in Ancient Caves 3D can help many people better appreciate the importance and beauty of these hidden worlds. Narrated by Emmy-winning actor Bryan Cranston, Ancient Caves 3D was the 2022 winner of the Giant Screen Cinema Association film awards for best film, best film for lifelong learning, and best cinematography.
