About Najla El Zein: Najla El Zein (born Beirut, 1983) graduated from Ecole Camondo, Paris, in Product Design and Interior Architecture. Her work has been exhibited internationally at The V&A museum and most recently at the exhibition Women + Design: New Works (October 28, 2018 – February 17, 2019) at the Dallas Museum of Art. El Zein’s Seduction, Pair 01 was acquired by the Dallas Museum of Art for its permanent collection. El Zein currently lives and works in Beirut.
About Larry Sultan:Larry Sultan grew up in California’s San Fernando Valley, which became a source of inspiration for a number of his projects. His work blends documentary and staged photography to create images of the psychological as well as physical landscape of suburban family life. Sultan’s pioneering book and exhibition Pictures From Home (1992) was a decade long project that features his own mother and father as its primary subjects, exploring photography’s role in creating familial mythologies. Using this same suburban setting, his book, The Valley (2004) examined the adult film industry and the area’s middle-class tract homes that serve as pornographic film sets.

2019 Student Exhibition

February 9 – March 10, 2019
The annual Student Exhibition, a 60-year tradition at the Parrish, features the work of more than 1,000 young artists from schools on Eastern Long Island. Working with their art teachers and through art clubs, the students demonstrate creativity, enthusiasm, and technical skill in diverse media, ranging from painting to sculpture, drawing and photography.
This years’ exhibition includes work created by students in Artist-in-Residence workshops with artist Jeremy Dennis.
In addition to the nearly 300 works by students under the direction of their art teachers in 38 public, private, and home schools, the exhibition features work by 350 students who participated in workshops to create works inspired by Dennis’ images currently on view in the museum’s exhibition Every Picture Tells a Story.
The Parrish Art Museum’s educational programming is supported, in part, by The Stanley and Fiona Druckenmiller Fund, Institute of Museum and Library Services, Long Island Community Foundation, May and Samuel Rudin Family Foundation, Robert Lehman Foundation, The John J. McDonnell Margaret T. O’Brien Foundation, Patricia and David Rung, William Talbott Hillman Foundation, Bobbie Braun/The Neuwirth Foundation, and Town of Southampton. Additional support for the Parrish education programs is provided by the Museum’s annual Spring Fling benefit fundraiser.
