SUMMARY:Talk & Book Signing | Justin Beal: Sandfuture
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Justin Beal\, introduced by Parrish Director Kelly Taxter\, about Sandfuture (MIT Press September 2021)\, his forthcoming book about the life of World Trade Center architect Minoru Yamasaki (1912–1986)\, who remains on the margins of history despite the enormous influence of his work on American architecture and society. \nPresented on the eve of the 20th anniversary of 9/11\, Sandfuture is also a book about an artist interrogating art and architecture’s role in culture as New York changes drastically after a decade bracketed by terrorism and natural disaster. From the central thread of Yamasaki’s life\, Sandfuture spirals outward to include reflections on a wide range of subjects\, from the figure of the architect in literature and film and transformations in the contemporary art market to the perils of sick buildings and the broader social and political implications of how\, and for whom\, cities are built. \n  \nABOUT JUSTIN BEAL \nJustin Beal is an artist with an extensive exhibition history in the United States and Europe. Beal graduated from Yale University with a degree in architecture and design and continued his studies at the Whitney Independent Study Program and the University of Southern California. His work has been reviewed in the New York Times\, the New Yorker\, Artforum\, Frieze\, Art in America\, Interview and the Los Angeles Times and is included in the permanent collections of the Albright Knox Museum\, the Hammer Museum\, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles. Beal currently teaches at Hunter College. \nABOUT MINORU YAMASAKI \nThe son of Japanese immigrants in Seattle\, Minoru Yamasaki overcame endemic racism in both his country and his profession to rise to prominence with a humanistic approach to modern architecture—an unorthodox style exemplified by projects including the McGregor Memorial Conference Center\, the Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles\, and the Dhahran Airfield in Saudi Arabia. In 1963\, Yamasaki appeared on the cover of Time magazine\, but the critical rebuke of the World Trade Center and the spectacular demise of the Pruitt-Igoe apartments in St. Louis pushed him to the margins of the profession in the latter half of his career. Today\, Yamasaki remains largely unknown despite his enormous influence on the history of American architecture and the astonishing coincidence that his two best-known projects were both destroyed on live television. \nAdvance ticket purchase with pre-event registration is required.\nAll tickets are sold pre-event and online only. No sales at the door. All sales are final\, non-transferable\, and non-refundable.\nThis indoor event requires all attendees to show proof of vaccination (vaccine card/Excelsior Pass) or a negative PCR test within 72 hours. To help us expedite the check-in process\, we encourage all guests to send their proof in advance by emailing it to healthfirst@parrishart.org. Please put the event title in your subject line.\nRestrooms will be open during the event. Hand sanitizer and wipes will be available\, with surfaces disinfected regularly for the safety of our staff and visitors.\nNo pets are allowed on the Museum grounds or in the galleries.\n  \nFriday Nights at the Parrish are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:\n\nAdditional support provided by The Corcoran Group and Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

SUMMARY:Recorded Online Talk: Tomashi Jackson\, K-Sue Park\, Kelly Dennis\, and Corinne Erni
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a recorded conversation with Tomashi Jackson\, before the opening of her new exhibition\, The Land Claim on July 11. The talk also features K-Sue Park\, Associate Professor of Law at Georgetown University Law Center; Kelly Dennis\, a member of the Shinnecock Nation and attorney specializing in Federal American Indian law; and Corinne Erni\, Senior Curator of ArtsReach and Special Projects\, who moderates the discussion. The Land Claim focuses on the historic and contemporary lived experiences of Indigenous\, Black\, and Latinx families on the East End of Long Island. In her work for the exhibition\, Jackson juxtaposes current and historical racial segregation in the region\, similar to her work in the 2019 Whitney Biennial. \nPlease use the link below to register for the online talk. After registering\, you will receive a link to watch the program on the Parrish’s YouTube channel.\nREGISTER  \nAbout the Participants\nKelly Dennis is an attorney specializing in Federal American Indian law. She has represented her tribe\, the Shinnecock Indian Nation\, and other sovereign tribal nations on matters such as land rights\, civil rights\, cultural and natural resources protection\, as well as tribal governance and business development. She continues to represent individual tribe members on education law\, family law\, small business\, and other matters as an Of-Counsel Attorney with The Law Offices of Tela L. Troge\, PLLC located in Southampton\, New York. Dennis integrates her legal background with her passion for the arts through social justice advocacy efforts for the rights and welfare of indigenous peoples. As such\, she has served as the Public Programs & Residency Coordinator at The Watermill Center (WMC)\, an interdisciplinary laboratory for the arts and humanities located in Water Mill\, New York. \nK-Sue Park’s scholarship examines the creation of the American real estate system and the historical connections between property law\, immigration law\, and American Indian law. Prior to Georgetown\, she was the Critical Race Studies Fellow at UCLA School of Law and an Equal Justice Works Fellow and staff attorney in El Paso\, where she investigated predatory mortgage lending schemes. Park earned her B.A. summa cum laude\, Phi Beta Kappa honors from Cornell University\, where she was a College Scholar\, her M.Phil with Distinction in Social and Political Sciences from the University of Cambridge\, her J.D. cum laude from Harvard Law School\, where she was a Presidential Scholar\, and her Ph.D. in Rhetoric from UC Berkeley\, where she was a Javits Fellow. A former Fulbright Scholar\, Park’s writings have appeared in the Harvard Law Review\, Law & Society Review\, and The New York Times. \nAbout Tomashi Jackson\nDrawing centrally from Josef Albers’s research on the relativity of color and the unconscious processes by which the brain organizes and reconciles information\, Jackson’s work bridges gaps between geometric experimentation and the systematization of injustice\, incorporating images printed and hand painted from photographs and materials chosen for their relevance into formalist compositions. She uses properties of color perception as an aesthetic strategy to investigate the value of human life in public space. Jackson’s research driven projects and visual interrogation of shared language around societal and chromatic color offers a narrative framework from which she constructs her own language of abstraction. \nTomashi Jackson was born in Houston and raised in Los Angeles. She earned her MFA in Painting and Printmaking from Yale University School of Art in 2016; a Master of Science in Art\, Culture and Technology from the MIT School of Architecture and Planning in 2012\, and a BFA from Cooper Union in 2010. Her solo exhibitions include Forever My Lady at Night Gallery\, Los Angeles (2020)\, Time Out of Mind at Tilton Gallery (2019)\, Los Angeles \, Interstate Love Song at the Zuckerman Museum of Art\, Kennesaw\, Georgia (2018)\, and The Subliminal is Now at Tilton Gallery (2016). Her work was included in the 2019 Whitney Biennial and additional group exhibitions at The Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art (LACMA)\, Mass MoCA\, The Bakalar & Paine Galleries at the Massachusetts College of Art\, Boston\, and the Contemporary Art Center\, New Orleans\, as well as in the public collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art\, LACMA\, and the Baltimore Museum of Art. \nJackson was a 2019 Resident Artist at the Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture and the 2019 Resident Artist at the ARCAthens Residency Program\, Athens\, Greece. She has taught at the Rhode Island School of Design\, the Massachusetts College of Art\, Boston\, and The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art\, NY\, and she has been a visiting artist lecturer at Boston University\, New York University\, Yale University\, and School of Visual Arts\, NY. She lives and works in Cambridge and New York City. Her work is represented by Tilton Gallery in New York City and Night Gallery in Los Angeles\, CA. \nFriday Nights at the Parrish are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:Additional support provided by The Corcoran Group and Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

SUMMARY:Livestream Talk: Martin Creed and Kelly Taxter
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Martin Creed and Parrish director Kelly Taxter in an online livestream conversation about Creed’s installation at the Museum\, Work No. 2210: EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT (2015). The 70-foot-long neon sculpture installed on the south-facing façade of the building is displaying a single line of unpunctuated\, rainbow hued text that reads “EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT.” The work is an expression of Creed’s desire to communicate\, connect\, and provoke. According to the artist\, “50% about what I make and 50% about what other people make of it.” \nThe sculpture was first presented in 1999 as a temporary public art commission for the Clapton Portico in Hackney\, East London\, which was derelict at the time. Built in 1825\, the Portico was home to the London Orphan Asylum until a local typhoid epidemic in 1867 forced the orphans to be relocated. Both the genesis and the first iteration of EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT resonate with current circumstances around COVID-19\, which is lessening in some places and continues to devastate in others\, a disparity all too often linked to economic and racial privilege. The Parrish installation aims to inspire critical thought as well as optimism: like pandemics past\, these difficult times will end and so too\, the systems that perpetuate them. \nEVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT is the most recent addition to Field of Dreams an outdoor sculpture exhibition in the Parrish meadow\, featuring works by an international\, multi-generational group of artists who engage and respond to the Museum’s architecture and landscape. Other variations of the artwork have been installed across internationally renowned institutions and buildings\, most recently at Braemar Castle in Aberdeenshire\, Scotland (Work No. 3435\, 2020); Christchurch Art Gallery\, Christchurch New Zealand\, (Work No. 2314\, 2015); MMOMA\, Moscow\, Russia (Work No. 1081\, 2010); Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art\, Edinburgh\, UK (Work No. 975\, 2008); MOCA Detroit\, Michigan\, USA (Work No. 790\, 2007); and Tate Modern\, London\, UK (Work No. 203\, 1999). The version to be presented at the Parrish was first shown at the Aspen Art Museum as part of the exhibition Stories We Tell Ourselves (2015) and at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles (2019). \nABOUT THE ARTIST:\nMartin Creed was born in Wakefield\, UK in 1968 and grew up in Glasgow. Today he lives and works in London. He has exhibited extensively worldwide\, and in 2001 won the Turner Prize for Work 227: The lights going on and off.

SUMMARY:Recorded Online Talk: Sheree Hovsepian with Kelly Taxter
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a recorded conversation with Parrish Director Kelly Taxter and artist Sheree Hovsepian\, who uses film-based cameras\, light-sensitive paper\, objects\, and the human body to produce her acclaimed assemblage. Work by Hovsepian will be featured in the Museum’s new exhibition Affinities for Abstraction: Women Artists on Eastern Long Island\, 1950—2020\, opening May 2\, 2021.\n \nAbout Sheree Hovsepian\nSheree Hovsepian (American b. Iran) earned her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2002\, a dual BFA/BA from the University of Toledo in 1999\, and studied at the Glasgow School of Art\, Scotland in 1998. Her work highlights the physicality of the photograph and photography’s relationship to the human body. Coaxed into sculptural forms\, layered with tactile materials\, and assembled into larger compositions\, Hovsepian’s pictures oscillate between object and image\, creating a sensuous\, bodily experience of the photographic document. \nRecent solo and two-person exhibitions have been organized by The Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College (Never Done: 100 Years of Women in Politics and Beyond\, 2020 -2021) Saratoga Springs\, NY\, Halsey Mckay Gallery\, East Hampton\, NY (2020)\, Higher Pictures Gallery\, New York (2019) Team Bungalow\, Los Angeles with Paul Mpagi Sepuya\, (2019): and Monique Meloche Gallery\, Chicago (2018) Recent group exhibitions include Arches and Ink\, Rachel Uffner Gallery\, New York (2021); and Inertial Dynamics\, Half Gallery\, New York (2020). Hovsepian’s work is in the permanent collections of the Art Institute of Chicago\, the Bronx Museum\, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, and the Studio Museum in Harlem\, among others. Hovsepian serves on the Art Advisory Committee of Baxter Street Camera Club of New York. Sheree lives and works between New York City and Bridgehampton\, NY. \nAbout Kelly Taxter \nKelly Taxter is the new Director of the Parrish Art Museum. \nShe joined the Jewish Museum in 2013 and was most recently the Barnett and Annalee Newman Curator of Contemporary Art\, the Museum’s first endowed and named contemporary curator position. While at the Jewish Museum\, Taxter organized major surveys of Marc Camille Chaimowicz and Rachel Feinstein\, and will serve as guest curator for the first U.S. survey of filmmaker Jonas Mekas in 2022; she led commissions\, projects\, and exhibitions with Math Bass\, Eliza Douglas\, Alex Israel\, Eva LeWitt\, Peter Shire\, Laurie Simmons\, Valeska Soares\, Vivan Suter\, and Lawrence Weiner\, among others; and co-curated an exhibition on Isaac Mizrahi and thematic group exhibitions including Take Me (I’m Yours) and Unorthodox. From 2012 to 2013 she was Consulting Curator at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum in Ridgefield\, Connecticut\, where she organized major solo exhibitions of Martin Creed\, Harry Dodge\, and Robert Longo. \nIn 2003\, Taxter co-founded Taxter & Spengemann (with Pascal Spengemann)\, a gallery where she represented artists Lutz Bacher\, Frank Benson\, Xavier Cha\, Matt Johnson\, Kalup Linzy\, Wardell Milan\, and A.L. Steiner\, among others. Taxter studied fine art at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston and Tufts University\, where she earned her B.A. She received her M.A. from the Center for Curatorial Studies\, Bard College. \n  \nFriday Nights are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:\nAdditional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

SUMMARY:Live-Stream Performance: Lonnie Holley Concert and Conversation
DESCRIPTION:The Parrish Art Museum presents a special live-stream evening of conversation and performance with visual artist\, musician\, filmmaker\, and educator Lonnie Holley. Throughout the program\, Holley will be in conversation with Chief Curator Alicia Longwell\, play the keyboard and sing\, and will be accompanied by Washington Duke on drums/percussion.\n \nHolley\, whose exhibition\, Everything That Wasn’t White: Lonnie Holley at the Elaine de Kooning House\, will be on view at the Parrish from April 24-September 6\, was a recent Artist-in-Residence at the Elaine de Kooning House in East Hampton\, NY. He did not start making and performing music in a studio nor does his creative process mirror that of the typical musician. His music and lyrics are improvised on the spot and morph and evolve with every event\, concert\, and recording. In Holley’s original art environment\, he would construct and deconstruct his visual works\, repurposing their elements for new pieces. This often led to the transfer of individual narratives into the new work creating a cumulative composite image that has depth and purpose beyond its original singular meaning. The layers of sound in Holley’s music\, likewise\, are the result of decades of evolving experimentation. \nHolley’s artwork has most recently been in exhibitions at The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco\, The Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the National Gallery of Art\, the Philadelphia Museum of Art\, and MASS MoCA. In September of 2018\, he released his third studio album\, MITH\, on Jagjaguwar. The album made numerous “best of” year-end lists\, including those of the New Yorker and Newsweek. His first film\, I Snuck Off the Slave Ship\, premiered in 2019 at the Sundance Film Festival. \nAbout Lonnie Holley\nLonnie Holley was born in 1950 in Birmingham\, Alabama. From the age of five\, he worked various jobs: picking up trash at a drive-in movie theatre\, washing dishes\, and cooking. He lived with foster parents in a whiskey house\, boarded on one side by the state fairgrounds and on another by a drive-in movie theater\, until the age of eleven\, when he was picked up by the Birmingham Police Department for violating the city-wide curfew\, imposed during the height of the Civil Rights Movement. He was sent to the Alabama Industrial School for Negro Children\, which was little more than a slave camp for African American youth. His early life was chaotic\, to say the least\, and Holley was never afforded the pleasure of a real childhood. After his birth family discovered his whereabouts\, he returned to Birmingham to live with his paternal grandmother. For the next ten years he would have a series of jobs\, which included working for the Campbell Soup Company picking vegetables\, working as a greenskeeper at a Country Club in Florida\, and working as a chef at the Walt Disney World resort in Orlando when it opened. He returned to Birmingham in his early 20s. \nSince 1979\, Holley has devoted his life to the practice of improvisational creativity. His art and music\, born out of struggle\, hardship\, but perhaps more importantly\, out of furious curiosity and biological necessity\, has manifested itself in drawing\, painting\, sculpture\, photography\, performance\, filmmaking\, printmaking\, and sound. Holley’s sculptures are constructed from found materials in the oldest tradition of African American sculpture. Objects\, already imbued with cultural and artistic metaphor\, are combined into narrative sculptures that commemorate places\, people\, and events. His work is now in collections of major museums throughout the country\, on permanent display in the United Nations\, and have been displayed in the White House Rose Garden. \nSince 2010\, he has lived and worked out of Atlanta\, Georgia. \nAbout Washington Duke\nPlaying drums seemed to come naturally to Washington (Washy) Duke. At the age of ten\, his first music teacher gave him a drum kit\, and mastering the instrument became a lifelong pursuit. By thirteen years old\, Washy had a band\, covering Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix at friends’ birthday parties. At eighteen\, he was recruited by Dr. Paul Jeffrey to come to Duke University to play drums in the Jazz Ensemble. Jeffrey noticed an innate musicality to Washy’s playing\, and hired him to play in his own quartet\, even though Jazz was still a foreign idiom to Washy. But\, having been a protégé of Sonny Rollins\, Thelonious Monk\, and Charles Mingus\, Jeffrey took a sink or swim approach\, and gave Washy most of his education on the bandstand. In his first year at Duke\, Washy performed with Jazz greats John Stubblefield\, Walter Bishop Jr.\, Ray Bryant\, and Curtis Fuller. At the end of that year\, Jeffrey and Fuller asked Washy to come to France and record on their album\, Together in Monaco. Washy was nineteen years old. He has since gone on to study with legendary drummer and teacher Michael Carvin and has spent the better part of the last twenty years as a drummer and bandleader for numerous acts across all genres of popular music. 2020 made performing nearly impossible\, but Washy used the time to practice daily\, and return to his study of the art of drumming. \n\nFriday Nights are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:\nAdditional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.\n

SUMMARY:Talk: Black History on Eastern Long Island: The Plain Sight Project
DESCRIPTION:Join Senior Curator Corinne Erni with Plain Sight Project Co-Directors Donnamarie Barnes (Curator/Archivist at Sylvester Manor Educational Farm and Plain Sight Project Founder and Chair) and David Rattray (Editor\, East Hampton Star) in a live-stream conversation about Barnes’s and Rattray’s ongoing research for The Plain Sight Project. This project identifies enslaved persons and free Blacks on the East End of Long Island from the 1600s to the mid-19th century and their efforts to project\, locate\, and preserve burial grounds\, habitations\, and work sites in the Hamptons. The Plain Sight Project will serve as a significant resource for Platform artist Tomashi Jackson’s research as she prepares for her upcoming exhibition\, The Land Claim\, on view this summer at the Parrish. \nAbout the Plain Sight Project\nAlong with many northern communities\, East Hampton is disconnected from its slave-owning past. By compiling a comprehensive\, public list of enslaved persons from the Colonial period to the last recorded enslaved person in East Hampton in 1830\, the Plain Sight Project is reconciling with this forgotten history while taking a step to place these people and their stories back into our nation’s founding narrative with in-class outreach to public and private schools. www.plainsightproject.org \nAbout the Speakers\nDonnamarie Barnes began working at Sylvester Manor Educational Farm in 2014 as a volunteer and history docent and in 2016 joined the staff full time as Curator and Archivist. She has curated the exhibitions\, Women of the Manor\, A Place in Pictures\, and All That Has Been: Our Roots Revealed. Her ongoing work of conserving the various collections at the Manor\, researching and uncovering the lives and identities of the enslaved and indigenous people of Sylvester Manor is an integral part of the organization’s mission to Preserve\, Cultivate and Share the stories of all the people of Sylvester Manor. She is also Co-Director of the Plain Sight Project\, which is dedicated to uncovering\, naming and counting the enslaved people of the East End of Long Island. For over thirty years Barnes worked in the editorial photography field as a photographer and photo editor for publications such as People and Essence Magazines and as a Photo Editor at the Gamma Liaison photo agency. A life-long summer and full-time resident of Ninevah Beach in the historic SANS Community in Sag Harbor\, Barnes grew up photographing the community and the beach landscape. In 2015 she curated a highly acclaimed historic tintype photography exhibition at the Eastville Community Historical Society in Sag Harbor entitled\, Collective Identity.

SUMMARY:Talk: András Szántó and Corinne Erni on "The Future of the Museum"
DESCRIPTION:Join Senior Curator Corinne Erni and museum strategist and author András Szántó in a live-stream conversation as they discuss his new book\, The Future of the Museum: 28 Dialogues.\n \nHow do museums adapt to new realities around the world today? What are some of the most exciting approaches? As museums worldwide shuttered in 2020 because of the coronavirus\, Szántó conducted a series of interviews with an international group of museum leaders. In a moment when economic\, political\, and cultural shifts are signaling the start of a new era\, the directors speak candidly about the historical limitations and untapped potential of art museums. Each of the 28 conversations in the book explores a particular topic of relevance to art institutions today and tomorrow. What emerges from the in-depth conversations is a composite portrait of a generation of museum leaders working to make institutions more open\, democratic\, inclusive\, experimental and experiential\, technologically savvy\, culturally polyphonic\, attuned to the needs of their visitors and communities\, and concerned with addressing the defining issues of the societies around them. The dialogues offer glimpses of how museums around the globe are undergoing an accelerated phase of reappraisal and reinvention. \nTo purchase the book\, please email booksmomaps1@artbook.com \nAbout András Szántó\nSzántó advises museums\, foundations\, educational institutions\, and leading brands on cultural strategy. His writings on the art world and art market have appeared in The New York Times\, Artforum\, The Art Newspaper\, and many international publications.

SUMMARY:Talk: Tomashi Jackson\, Minerva Perez\, Corinne Erni
DESCRIPTION:Join a live-stream talk featuring Tomashi Jackson\, the Museum’s 2021 Platform artist\, and Minerva Perez\, Executive Director of OLA\, moderated by Corinne Erni\, Senior Curator of ArtsReach and Special Projects as they focus on the historical and current lived experiences of Latin American communities on the East End. \nTomashi Jackson’s Platform exhibition\, The Land Claim\, will take place at the Parrish in the summer of 2021 with new paintings and site-specific installations. The new work focuses on the historic and contemporary lived experiences of Indigenous\, Black\, and Latinx families on the East End of Long Island\, linked through issues of housing\, transportation\, livelihood migration\, and agriculture. For her research\, Jackson has interviewed community leaders\, historians\, and archivists. \nAbout Tomashi Jackson\nDrawing centrally from Josef Albers’s research on the relativity of color and the unconscious processes by which the brain organizes and reconciles information\, Jackson’s work bridges gaps between geometric experimentation and the systematization of injustice\, incorporating images printed and hand painted from photographs and materials chosen for their relevance into formalist compositions. She uses properties of color perception as an aesthetic strategy to investigate the value of human life in public space. Jackson’s research driven projects and visual interrogation of shared language around societal and chromatic color offers a narrative framework from which she constructs her own language of abstraction. \nTomashi Jackson was born in Houston and raised in Los Angeles. She earned her MFA in Painting and Printmaking from Yale University School of Art in 2016; a Master of Science in Art\, Culture and Technology from the MIT School of Architecture and Planning in 2012\, and a BFA from Cooper Union in 2010. Her solo exhibitions include Forever My Lady at Night Gallery\, Los Angeles (2020); Time Out of Mind at Tilton Gallery (2019)\, New York; Interstate Love Song at the Zuckerman Museum of Art\, Kennesaw\, Georgia (2018); and The Subliminal is Now at Tilton Gallery (2016). Her work was included in the 2019 Whitney Biennial and additional group exhibitions at The Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art (LACMA)\, Mass MoCA\, The Bakalar & Paine Galleries at the Massachusetts College of Art\, Boston\, and the Contemporary Art Center\, New Orleans\, as well as in the public collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art\, LACMA\, and the Baltimore Museum of Art. \nJackson was a 2019 Resident Artist at the Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture and the 2019 Resident Artist at the ARCAthens Residency Program\, Athens\, Greece. She has taught at the Rhode Island School of Design\, the Massachusetts College of Art\, Boston\, and The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art\, NY\, and she has been a visiting artist lecturer at Boston University\, New York University\, Yale University\, and School of Visual Arts\, NY. She lives and works in Cambridge and New York City. \nAbout Minerva Perez\nExecutive Director of OLA of Eastern Long Island since 2016\, Perez centers her work on the protection\, empowerment\, and celebration of the Latino community. She has worked with Suffolk County to establish a coordinated response for the homebound and hungry across all 10 Suffolk County Towns; to secure more Spanish speaking DA Victim Advocates to serve the East End; and to offer free Covid 19 testing via a mobile unit brought to eastern Suffolk where communities of color have a harder time accessing transportation. She created and rolled out the first ever regional study to learn middle and high school mental and emotional health challenges directly from the students. She has secured the FEMA funded New York State initiative Project Hope NY\, which has allowed OLA to hire 18 fulltime staff to lead a crisis counselling effort that will serve the full East End in English\, Spanish\, and Portuguese. \nBefore joining OLA\, Perez was the Director of Residential and Transitional Services for six years at The Retreat\, where she ran a 24-hour crisis shelter for women and children fleeing domestic abuse. \nPerez has curated the annual OLA Latino Film Festivals since 2016\, of which the Parrish Art Museum is a regular partner. She has led the creation of the OLA Media Lab which brings visual storytelling workshops to area public schools\, producing student shorts that have been screened at the Festival. Perez holds a theater arts degree from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and founded and ran a nonprofit theater company in New York City. She has appeared in several films\, co-produced an award-winning short\, Home\, and wrote\, directed\, and produced Soy María\, an original series of monologues in Spanish focused on domestic violence. Perez was named in NBCLatino20 of 2019\, a listing of 20 notable US Latino leaders and advocates. She lives in Sag Harbor\, NY. \n\nFriday Nights are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:\nAdditional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

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.

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: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 Talk: Savannah Petrick in Conversation with Jackie Black
DESCRIPTION:Parrish collection artist Jackie Black (American\, born 1958) discusses her work in Last Meal and new projects with Curatorial Assistant and Publications Coordinator Savannah Petrick in an online live-streamed conversation.\nCurrently on view at the Parrish\, Last Meal is artist and activist Jackie Black’s commentary on capital punishment. A series of powerful 12 x 12-inch images recreate the last meals and statements of 23 individuals who were tried\, convicted and executed in Texas under capital punishment between 1984 and 2001. At first glance\, they read as staged food photos on a glossy diner menu. However\, suspended against stark black backgrounds in a gallery setting – with no suggestion of social or human interaction – the images are transformed into macabre still lifes. Savannah Petrick and Black discuss the work in the context of the USA today – in a country that has had 170 exonerations since 1973\, and 1\,522 executions since 1976. \nAbout Jackie Black\nJackie Black was born in Baton Rouge\, Louisiana and grew up in Texas\, Arkansas and Florida. She graduated from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston in 1994. Her first car was a 1969 lemon yellow Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. She currently drives a bicycle. Jackie’s photo series\, last meal\, in which she recreates the last meals requested by (23) prisoners executed in Texas\, is in the collection of this museum. Her last meal would be fried chicken\, black-eyed peas\, mashed potatoes\, ramen\, and a lobster roll. (The prison systems do not allow alcohol or tobacco.) Jackie is a photographer\, framer\, maker\, artist\, activist\, coconut enthusiast\, and bicycle fanatic. \n  \nFriday Nights are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:\nAdditional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

SUMMARY:Live-Stream Talk: Alicia Longwell in Conversation with Jim Dine
DESCRIPTION:Parrish collection artist Jim Dine (American\, born 1935) discusses his work in Field of Dreams and new projects with Chief Curator Alicia Longwell in an online live-stream.\nInternationally renowned Parrish Art Museum collection artist Jim Dine (American\, born 1935)\, whose work is on view in the Museum’s outdoor exhibition Field of Dreams\, will participate in a live stream illustrated talk with Alicia G. Longwell\, Ph.D.\, The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Chief Curator on Friday\, November 6\, 5pm. A visionary who was a pioneer of the Happenings movement and integral to the development of Pop art in the 1960s\, Dine will discuss The Hooligan and The Wheatfield (Agincourt)\, as well as current projects and the trajectory of his 60-year career. \nIn his work throughout the decades\, Dine frequently affixed to his canvases everyday objects—largely his personal possessions—such as tools\, rope\, shoes\, clothing\, and even a bathroom sink. He later added gates\, trees\, and Venus de Milo to his repertoire of recurring motifs\, as exemplified in The Wheatfield (Agincourt)\, 1989-2019. It expands Dine’s scope into a monumental assemblage comprising an extensive tractor axle fitted with the objects and icons that have populated his life’s work\, including farm tools\, oars\, animal statuary\, furniture\, and toys. For this new iteration at the Parrish\, Dine extended the framework of the axle and added new found objects. Several iterations of the Venus de Milo—a characteristic trademark of the artist’s practice since the late 1970s—appear in The Wheatfield\, and provide the sole inspiration of The Hooligan (2019)\, on view for the first time. \nAbout Jim Dine\nBorn in Cincinnati in 1935\, Jim Dine relocated to New York in 1959\, where he joined Allan Kaprow\, Claes Oldenburg\, and Robert Whitman in the early stages of the Happenings. In New York\, he exhibited at Judson Gallery (1958 and 1959)\, had his first solo show the Reuben Gallery in 1960\, and was part of many other exhibitions nationwide since that time. Dine has had solo exhibitions in museums in Europe and the United States\, including a major retrospectives at the Whitney Museum of American Art (1970)\, Museum of Modern Art (1978)\, and Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, New York (1999); the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis (1984–85)\, and National Gallery of Art in Washington\, D.C. (2004). \nIn 1965\, Dine was a guest lecturer at Yale University\, artist-in-residence at Oberlin College\, Ohio\, and a visiting critic at Cornell University a year later. The artist\, who attended the University of Cincinnati\, the School of the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, and Ohio University\, Athens (BFA\, 1957) lives in New York\, Paris\, and Walla Walla\, Washington. \n  \n  \nFriday Nights at the Parrish are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:Additional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

Longwell\, Ph.D.\, The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Chief Curator\, in an illustrated live-stream talk related to the exhibition HOUSEBOUND: Fairfield Porter and his Circle of Poets and Painters\, with Karin Roffman\, author of a biography of poet John Ashbery who was a close friend of Porter’s and frequent guest at the artist’s Southampton home.\n \nThe conversation focuses on the many painters and poets who visited Porter and his wife from the 1950s through the ‘70s\, and the ways that domestic surroundings can both nurture and reflect artistic choices. Roffman’s deep knowledge of Ashbery’s life and work\, including his enduring friendship with Porter\, will be the focus of this illuminating talk. \nPorter (American\, 1907–1975)\, the poet Anne Porter\, and their children moved in 1949 from New York to a rambling 19th-c. captain’s house in Southampton Village. For decades following\, the couple’s friends gravitated there for a weekend or an extended stay\, chronicling their social mores and shared sensibilities in words and paint. Ashbery was a frequent visitor\, along with fellow poets Kenneth Koch\, Frank O’Hara\, and James Schuyler; as well as painters including Robert Dash\, Jane Freilicher\, Alex Katz\, Larry Rivers\, and Jane Wilson. Roffman’s book\, The Songs We Know Best: John Ashbery’s Early Life\, reveals how Ashbery’s poetry arose in part\, from those lifelong friendships with Porter and others who congregated at his home\, notably Freilicher\, O’Hara\, Koch\, and Schuyler. The exhibition at the Parrish reveals the reciprocity of inspiration: Ashbery’s typed manuscript of his poem Pyrography is the surface for Rivers’s drawing of the poet at the typewriter. \nHOUSEBOUND: FAIRFIELD PORTER AND HIS CIRCLE OF POETS AND PAINTERS\nHousebound presents paintings and poems that bring in sharp focus the many connections between the works and the artists who created them. Nearly 40 paintings by Porter\, Robert Dash\, Jane Freilicher\, Alex Katz\, and Larry Rivers will be on view. Poems by Anne Porter and New York School poets John Ashbery\, Barbara Guest\, Kenneth Koch\, Frank O’Hara\, and James Schuyler are accessible from SQR codes on the labels of specific works. Paintings by Porter from the late 1940s and ’50s such as Anne Reading to Laurence\, 1947\, show intimate scenes in the Porter household\, while others illustrate direct inspiration of one artist to another\, such as Sketch for a Portrait of Jimmy Schuyler\, 1962 \, and Jane and Elizabeth\, 1967\, depicting Freilicher and her young daughter. Portraits by artists inspired by their writer friends include Rivers’s lithograph\, Untitled (John Ashbery)\, 1984\, and Alex Katz\, Untitled (Portrait of Kenneth Koch)\, c 1970. \nAbout Karin Roffman\nKarin Roffman has published essays on John Ashbery and 20th – and 21st– century writers and artists in Raritan\, Modern Fiction Studies\, Artforum\, Rain Taxi\, Yale Review and others.  Her first book\, From the Modernist Annex: American Women Writers in Museums and Libraries (2010) won the University of Alabama Press’s American Literature Elizabeth Agee Manuscript Prize.

SUMMARY:Alicia Longwell in Conversation with Jaume Plensa
DESCRIPTION:International artist Jaume Plensa discusses his poignant public art works with Chief Curator Alicia Longwell in an online live-stream. The never-before-seen sculpture\, on view in the Parrish Art Museum’s outdoor exhibition Field of Dreams\, evokes silence and stillness in a complex world.\n\nSculptor Jaume Plensa (Spanish\, born 1955) will discuss his four bronze portraits—making their international debut in Field of Dreams at the Parrish Art Museum—with Alicia G. Longwell\, Ph.D.\, The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Chief Curator. In Carlota (oak)\, Julia (oak)\, Laura Asia (oak)\, and Wilsis (oak)\, 2019—totemic portraits originally carved from oak that stand over nine feet tall—Plensa captures a moment of quiet reflection\, evoking silence and stillness in a bustling world. The artist explores the connection between humanity and nature in his work. For 35 years\, Plensa has produced a multifaceted body of work creating sculpture that speaks to the capacity and beauty of humanity\, often bringing people together through the activation of public spaces \nArriving at the Museum directly from Plensa’s studio in Barcelona\, the four sculptures explore the idea of memory and the passage of time. “Every time I do a portrait\, soon after\, the model no longer exists\,” Plensa states. The artist captures his female sitters with their eyes closed in a moment of quiet reflection\, a concept central in his practice. The works are the first in a new series of portraits carved directly into tree trunks\, with the trunks remaining part of the sculpture in the subsequent casting in bronze. The innate connection between humanity and nature resonates deeply in this body of work: the wood acts as both the medium and the subject of the sculpture itself while the irregular surfaces and scattered splinters and cracks in the wood are captured in bronze. \nAbout Jaume Plensa\nJaume Plensa (b.1955) is one of the world’s foremost sculptors in the public realm with projects worldwide in Calgary\, Chicago\, San Diego\, Montréal\, London\, Paris\, Dubai\, Bangkok\, Shanghai\, and Tokyo. Most recently\, installations of his monumental sculptures in the public realm include Behind the Walls at historic Rockefeller Center in New York City and the Museo Nacional de Arte in Mexico City\, Julia in Plaza de Colón in Madrid\, and Voices permanently installed at 30 Hudson Yards in New York City. \nPlensa has had solo museum exhibitions at the MACBA: Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona\, Spain; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía\, Madrid Spain; MAMC–Musée d’art moderne et contemporain Saint-Étienne Métropole\, Saint-Étienne\, France; Max Ernst Museum Brühl des LVR\, Brühl\, Germany; The Toledo Museum of Art\, Toledo\, Ohio; Yorkshire Sculpture Park\, Yorkshire\, England; and Nasher Sculpture Center\, Dallas\, Texas. International awards include the Honorary Doctorate from Univeristat Aut’onoma de Barcelona in 2018; 2013 Velazquez Prize awarded by the Spanish Cultural Ministry. He lives and works in Barcelona. \n\n  \n  \nFriday Nights at the Parrish are made possible\, in part\, by Presenting Sponsor:Additional support provided by Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.

SUMMARY:Alicia Longwell in Conversation with Painter Lucien Smith
DESCRIPTION:Join Chief Curator Alicia Longwell and abstract painter Lucien Smith\, whose 10 large-scale paintings from his 2013 Southampton Suite are currently on view\, in the Lichtenstein Theater for an illustrated talk\, which will also be live-streamed online. Seating in the theater is limited with socially distanced seating. Registration is required. \nLucien Smith (b.1989) is best known for his process-based works that employ both accidental and improvisational marks to create loose\, all-over compositions. Organized by Alicia Longwell\, Lucien Smith: Southampton Suite brings the artist’s Rain Paintings series to conclusion with the 10 large-scale paintings created in a plein air studio that he constructed on the East End during the summer of 2013. With the 9 x 7 ft acrylic on unprimed canvas Southampton Suite paintings\, the artist created an immersive environment that continues his quest to “. . .replicate a natural process with manmade tools.” The ten works on view here from 2013 have never been shown as a group. \nSmith’s paintings\, made by filling an empty fire extinguisher with paint and spraying the canvas\, became widely known soon after his 2011 graduation from Cooper Union. What appealed to Smith was the way he was able to replicate a natural process—rain—with a manmade tool. For the first Rain Paintings series\, Murmur of the Heart\, he used blue and yellow paint; after this initial investigations he began to use a monochromatic approach\, taking a cue from the traditional depiction of rain in Japanese woodblock prints. \nAdvance ticket purchase with pre-event registration is required.\nAll tickets are sold pre-event and online only. No sales at the door. All sales are final\, non-transferable\, and non-refundable.\nThe event takes place in the Lichtenstein Theater with limited\, socially distanced seating.\nYou must wear a mask throughout the entire program. \nRestrooms will be open during the event.
