Benefit Print Project Announces Release of Outstanding New Edition


A new edition by Donald Sultan, whose voluminous and varied body of work has reconsidered and expanded the still life tradition, is being offered for sale by Benefit Print Project in support of the Parrish Art Museum. 


Since 1975, when he arrived in New York, Sultan's creative energy has manifested itself in a variety of media, including painting, prints, and sculpture. His extensive body of work has placed him at the forefront of contemporary art, where he is renowned for his ability to successfully merge the best of artistic tradition with a fresh and modern approach. His work is in the collections of most major museums in the United States and abroad, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, the Australian National Gallery, and the Tate Gallery, to name just a few.


Benefit Print Project was established in 2010 by Thomas Lollar, former Director of Visual Arts at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, and Paul Limperopulos, former curator in the List Print Program at Lincoln Center. Combining a consideration of aesthetics and innovative fundraising, Benefit Print Project offers editions to raise money for nonprofit arts organizations.

Parrish Launches Series of Collection-Based Publications


The Museum is pleased to announce the publication, in association with D Giles Limited, London, of three important books focused on the Museum’s permanent collection.

Fairfield Porter: Raw—The Creative Process of an American Master
American Landscapes: Treasures from the Parrish Art Museum
First Impressions: Nineteenth-Century American Master Prints


“In anticipation of our move to a new facility with galleries dedicated to the installation of our collection, we feel it is especially appropriate to be releasing the first major publications devoted to the Museum’s holdings,” notes Parrish Director Terrie Sultan.

The three publications have been made possible through a generous grant from the Henry Luce Foundation, with research supported through the Museum’s Werner and Maren Otto Endowment Fund for the Study of the Art and Artists of Eastern Long Island.
