SUMMARY:Live-Stream Talk: Alicia Longwell and Eric Brown Discuss Fairfield Porter and Jane Freilicher
DESCRIPTION:Join Alicia Longwell and Eric Brown in an online live-stream conversation about the friendship between artists Fairfield Porter and Jane Freilicher.\nPorter and Freilicher met in 1952 when Porter reviewed Freilicher’s first exhibition at Tibor de Nagy Gallery for ARTnews. Porter described Freilicher’s work as “traditional and radical” and she remarked that his paintings were characterized by “an unfinished” quality\, adding: “The same sort of casualness you find in the household\, you find in his paintings.” Their comments reflect mutual admiration\, and might easily be interpreted as musings on their own individual practices. Over the next two decades\, they developed a nourishing friendship that centered on painting and family. Although Porter was seventeen years older\, their first solo exhibitions were presented in New York just one year apart. Both remained stubbornly independent in the face of Abstract Expressionism\, preferring to paint from observation rather than embracing the tenets of Action painting. Porter and his wife moved to Southampton in 1949. His works depict the family’s South Main Street home\, garden and streetscape\, subjects he explored repeatedly over many years. Freilicher first visited the area in the early 1950s\, and in 1960\, she and her husband\, Joe Hazan\, built a house on Mecox Bay in Water Mill\, where she maintained a studio for more than 50 years.\nAbout Eric Brown\nEric Brown was co-owner of Tibor de Nagy Gallery from 1994 to 2017. The gallery\, started in 1950\, introduced a group of prominent American painters with East End associations including Helen Frankenthaler\, Jane Freilicher\, Grace Hartigan\, Fairfield Porter\, and Larry Rivers. Brown has organized numerous exhibitions with a focus on these artists and their circle\, including poets John Ashbery\, James Schuyler\, Kenneth Koch\, and Frank O’Hara. He is currently an art dealer and curator\, and Advisor to the Estate of Jane Freilicher. \n  \nFriday Nights at the Parrish are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:Additional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

SUMMARY:Live-Stream Panel on Preservation and Affordable Housing with Scott Bluedorn\, Curtis Highsmith\, Jr.\, Bill Chaleff\, and Josh Halsey
DESCRIPTION:Join Corinne Erni\, Senior Curator of ArtsReach and Special Projects\, in a live-stream conversation about affordable housing and preservation with Parrish Road Show artist Scott Bluedorn; Curtis Highsmith\, Jr.\, Executive Director\, Southampton Housing Authority; Bill Chaleff\, Architect\, AIA\, LEED AP\, Chaleff & Rogers Architects\, P.C.\, and advocate of affordable housing and sustainable planning and design; and scientist and conservationist Josh Halsey who focuses on land and water preservation. \nThe panel is taking place in conjunction with the exhibition Parrish Road Show: Scott Bluedorn: Bonac Blind\, currently on view in the Parrish Meadow. According to Bluedorn\, who built the Bonac Blind from a repurposed duck blind structure\, “The Bonac Blind is a multi-faceted art intervention: A floating\, off-grid microhome that references traditional Bonac culture of fishing\, farming and hunting while also serving as a comment on the erosion of this culture due to the compound problems of housing crisis\, climate change\, and modernity.” \nFor Bluedorn\, the name is a double entendre\, obviously referring to duck blind used during waterfowl season. But the title also points to the area’s current population\, largely blind to Bonac culture and the many problems it faces. Bluedorn’s intention is to raise awareness to the drastic shortage of affordable housing in the Hamptons that has effected a mass exodus of working-class people\, particularly in the generations of East Hampton families known as Bonackers or Bubs\, who is increasingly leaving the area for more affordable regions\, taking with them character\, history\, culture\, and tradition. At the same time\, the structure references current trends of tiny homes that are sustainable\, resilient\, and adaptive. \nFirst installed on the water in Springs\, East Hampton\, Bonac Blind now sits in the Parrish Meadow amid the same switchgrass that covers the structure. Complete with off-grid amenities such as solar roof panels\, solar batteries\, a single bed\, end table\, side chair\, and a wood burning stove—the tiny house is appointed with homey and practical objects like duck decoys affixed to the ceiling\, a clam rake over the window\, seining nets\, and a lamp made of sea kelp from Montauk. Bluedorn also added his original artwork and books that are relevant to his practice. \nAbout the Panelists\nScott Bluedorn (American\, b. 1986) addresses climate change by integrating cultural anthropology\, primitivism\, and nautical tradition into his imagery that speaks to the collective unconscious\, particularly through myth and visual storytelling\, in a world he refers to as “maritime cosmology.” His new large-scale drawing Genesis Flux is a surreal vision of climactic upheaval\, including change\, renewal\, and flux in the unnatural Anthropocene era and sixth mass extinction. The drawing Integrated Ocean Energy Farm is the artist’s proposition to repurpose existing structures like oil drilling platforms into floating multipurpose ‘farms’ for growing kelp (for food\, biofuels\, and regenerative ecosystem services)\, while combining value-added energy production including solar\, wind\, and wave power. Bluedorn\, who received his BFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York (2009)\, lives and works in East Hampton\, NY. \nBill Chaleff\, Architect\, AIA\, LEED AP\, Chaleff & Rogers Architects\, P.C.\, is a long-time advocate of “Green” architecture\, affordable housing\, and sustainable planning and design. He has worked with local Townships to reduce energy expenditures\, strengthen community by increasing economic and cultural diversity\, and advocate regenerative restoration of the unbuilt landscape. He has developed technologies and plans for Affordable Housing Units that deliver high-performance / low operating and maintenance cost homes competitive with code-minimum homes usually selected for affordable housing projects. His homes have been built by the local Habitat for Humanity chapter. He is currently working on a “mother-daughter” home on the Shinnecock Reservation. Chaleff served as co-chair of Mardythe DiPirro’s Affordable Housing Advisory Committee from 1988 through her entire tenure. He is chair of the Governance and Planning Committee of the A.I.A. Peconic Chapter. His firm won a New York State engineering award for their Tuckahoe School addition. Chaleff has designed over 400 energy-efficient buildings since he began his practice on Long Island in 1974. Chaleff has been guest lecturer at U.C. Berkeley and at R.I.S.D. and New York Tech Architectural Schools and was adjunct professor at L.I.U. Southampton. \nJosh Halsey\, born and raised on Long Island’s East End\, is a scientist and conservationist\, an artist and gardener\, among many other things. He holds a B.A. in Environmental Studies and Biology (combined major)\, University of California at Santa Cruz\, 2008\, and a M.S. in Agricultural Microbiology\, Escola Superior de Agricultura “Luiz de Queiroz” / Universidade de São Paulo\, 2012. Currently he works at Peconic Land Trust to conserve land and water resources for future generations on Long Island. \nCurtis E. Highsmith\, Jr.\, is Executive Director of the Southampton Housing Authority (TSHA/SCH&DC). He is a 1990 graduate of Riverhead High School\, but was raised within the Town of Southampton from birth. While attending Riverhead High\, he worked summers at Brookhaven National Laboratory\, in Contracts and Procurements\, where he learned to negotiate the payment of outstanding unpaid vouchers. Curtis attended Bryant University\, (Smithfield RI)\, where he majored in finance and communications. During the summer of his freshman year\, he interned with the Town of Riverhead\, in the Assessor’s office. After a year of summer interning\, Curtis was appointed Assessor’s Assistant\, and for the next three summers\, began working closely with the Town Assessors. Following Bryant College\, Curtis began working for Evergreen International Trading\, located in Manhattan’s World Trade 2\, and Ross Investment Group\, where he received his Series 7\, 3 & 63. Curtis converted to retail banking in 2003\, and was employed by North Fork Bank as a loan consultant. Curtis was recruited in 2005 by New Century Financial to run their Melville operations. In 2007\, New Century became a casualty of the collapse of the financial and mortgage market and closed its doors. Curtis was hired by HSBC Bank in 2008 as a Sr. Premier and Mortgage Manager and Private Banker.

SUMMARY:Talk: Nathan Kernan and Alicia Longwell on James Schuyler
DESCRIPTION:Join Alicia Longwell and Nathan Kernan\, who is currently writing a biography of poet James Schuyler to be published by Farrar\, Straus\, and Giroux\, for an online live-stream conversation about the friendship of Poet James Schuyler and Fairfield Porter. \nAs the editor of The Diary of James Schuyler (Black Sparrow Press\, 1997) and through his in depth knowledge of the poet’s letters and writings\, Kernan brings a unique understanding of Schuyler’s life and work. In his talk with Longwell\, he will share fresh insights into the friendship between Schuyler and Porter that lasted throughout the poet’s career. “Jimmy\,” as Schuyler was universally known\, was the youngest and last to join the group known as the New York School of Poets that included John Ashbery\, Barbara Guest\, Kenneth Koch\, and Frank O’Hara—all of whom were in Porter’s inner circle and frequented his home in Southampton. Paintings by Porter illustrate the synergy among the artists and writers through intimate scenes in the Porter household and portraits inspired by his guests\, such as Sketch for a Portrait of Jimmy Schuyler\, 1962. \nAbout Nathan Kernan\nNathan Kernan is a writer who lives in New York. He edited the Diary of James Schuyler\, which was published by Black Sparrow Press in 1997\, and is writing a biography of Schuyler\, to be published by Farrar\, Straus\, and Giroux.\n \nFriday Nights are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:\nAdditional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.\nSpecial thanks to\nArt Bridges\nfor the generous support for all of the Museum’s public programs\, online\, and during our reopening.
