"Parrish Perspectives: Recent Acquisitions in Context" offers the Museum an opportunity to respond spontaneously and directly to art, artists, and the creative process. This year’s installation thematically pairs significant recent acquisitions with works drawn from the permanent collection, providing insight into how a museum builds and reimagines its holdings.
Featured works include two recently acquired pieces by Alan Shields, drawings by Ned Smyth and Jennifer Bartlett, and a fabulous illustrative work by Matthew Weinstein.

The Parrish Art Museum, founded in 1898, opened the doors of its new, 34,400-square-foot Herzog & de Meuron-designed, building in November of 2012. The new Parrish includes 12,200 square feet of exhibition space—three times that of the Museum’s former home on Jobs Lane in Southampton. Seven sky-lit galleries devoted to the permanent collection showcase the story of America’s most enduring and influential artists’ colony—Eastern Long Island.
