Parrish Art Museum

Late Night Party
2020-07-11 - 2020-07-12 | Parrish Art Museum, 279 Montauk Highway, Water Mill, NY, 11976, United States
June 2020
We are profoundly grateful to count you among the patrons of our beloved Midsummer Party.
The good news is our celebration has been reimagined. Although we will dearly miss gathering with our friends in the galleries to experience the beauty and power of art, this is not the year for that. Instead, we are asking for something very simple: No save the date, no wardrobe worries, no rideshare required. All that we ask is that you join us in support of the Parrish Art Museum with a renewed gift.
As a gesture of our appreciation for your continued support, we have found a way to share a common experience of a work of art. Mary Heilmann, one of the Hamptons best-loved artists and long-time friend of the Parrish, is designing a limited edition plate to mark this moment in time. We intend this to become an annual tradition going forward, with a different artist contributing each year.
Our doors may be closed but our spirit is open. We have been bringing art and people together online through our Friday Nights Live! programs, Live from the Studio workshops, Talks with Docents, podcasts, Home Art Studios for children, Artist Stories, and our digital exhibition Telling Stories. We look ahead to reopening with vibrancy and a renewed commitment to our Members, friends, and all who engage with the Parrish. Your support is crucial to the success of this vision for the future.
On behalf of our fellow Trustees and Host Committee members, we thank you for your generosity. Please click below to make your donation online or contact Kendra Korczak at midsummerparty@parrishart.org with any questions. Your contribution at this time is incredibly meaningful and we look forward to welcoming you into the galleries (in person) soon. (Support the Museum and Save the “Plate.”)

What We See, How We See
2020-07-12 10:00 - 17:00, 2020-07-13 10:00 - 17:00, 2020-07-15 10:00 - 17:00, 2020-07-16 10:00 - 17:00, 2020-07-16 11:00 - 16:30, 2020-07-17 11:00 - 16:30, 2020-07-18 11:00 - 16:30 (America/New_York)
What We See, How We See is a seven-part exhibition that contextualizes work by a variety of artists through the lens of how they see and interpret the world around them. Individual galleries based on specific themes feature paintings, works on paper, photographs, and sculpture, opening with the diverse image making of artists Richard Prince, Dorothea Rockburne, and David Salle, among others. Circles, Squares, and Squiggles explores abstract gestures through works by Jennifer Bartlett, Willem de Kooning, and Perle Fine; Portraits by Chuck Close, Till Freiwald and others reveal their subjects in larger than life paintings; and American Landscapes highlights work from the Parrish’s renowned holdings. Two galleries bring to light bodies of work by single artists, from the tragic-comic world view of Saul Steinberg (a major gift from the Saul Steinberg Foundation that comprises works on paper, wallpaper and fabric), to the joyful imagery of Tom Slaughter.
