Film & Talk: “Home” by Sandy Perlbinder and Panel with Paul Goldberger
Inter-Sections: The Architect in Conversation
April 5, 2019, 6 pm - 8 pm
$12 | Free for Members, Children, and Students
The satirical short film, Home (1989, NR, 7:40 minutes), directed by Hamptons resident Sandy Perlbinder, tells the story of a tyrannical starchitect who imposes his absurd vision on an unsuspecting couple building their first home. Funny and smart, the film provides a springboard for a free-wheeling analysis of a 20th century architect stereotype—and perhaps every architect/client relationship since.
Panelists: Sandy Perlbinder, director; Paul Goldberger, architecture critic; James Merrell, architect; Robby Stein, psychoanalyst. Moderated by Parrish Director Terrie Sultan.
About the Panelists
After a short stint learning the ropes in commercial TV production, Sandy Perlbinder started her own company producing award-winning commercials and films. Home, her first comedy/drama, grew out of Perlbinder’s own experiences enduring construction and renovation while living through the tyranny of a starchitect.
Paul Goldberger, who won the Pulitzer Prize for Distinguished Criticism, is a contributing editor at Vanity Fair and was the architecture critic for The New Yorker from 1997-2011. He also wrote on the topic for Architectural Digest, and for decades at The New York Times.
Architect James Merrell, who studied under Peter Eisenman and leads his own firm in Sag Harbor, has more than 30 years of experience designing residences on the East End and West Coast.
Dr. Robert Stein is a Sag Harbor based psychoanalyst/couples and family therapist who has practiced for 40 years, and a three time appointee to the Sag Harbor Village Board.
Friday nights are made possible, in part, by Presenting Sponsor, Bank of America. Additional support provided by The Corcoran Group and Sandy and Stephen Perlbinder.
