    Protect Education and Access Parrish

    Recent Executive Orders by the Trump Administration to downsize the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) have resulted in the Parrish Art Museum losing over $140,000 in critical federal funding. This unexpected loss impacts our Education programs and ACCESS Parrish, which supports individuals with special needs. We urgently need your help to keep these essential programs going.

    On View | Shirin Neshat: Born of Fire

    Shirin Neshat: Born of Fire marks the artist’s first museum exhibition in the New York area in over 20 years. The show offers a non-linear survey of Neshat’s artistic development, presenting focused installations of four significant bodies of work. These range from her first major photographic works, Women of Allah (1993–7)—images inspired by women’s involvement in the Islamic Revolution and Iran-Iraq War—to The Book of Kings (2012), a portrait series that calls on the tradition of Persian epic poetry to address the Arab Spring protest movement.

    On View | Rafael Lozano-Hemmer: Collider

    The latest installment of the Museum’s annual façade installation series features a new public artwork by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. Made up of hundreds of small LED spotlights that create a calm, rippling curtain of light along the Museum’s south wall, Collider is visible from Montauk Highway and up close from the Museum’s meadow. The lights react in real time to invisible cosmic radiation from outer space.
