    On View | Endless Limits: The Work of James Howell, 1962–2014

    This exhibition presents the first-ever career retrospective of American artist James Howell (1935–2014), best known for his minimalist paintings that explore the vast tonal range of the color gray. In the later decades of his life, he produced hundreds of paintings, prints, and drawings that explore the subtlety and scope of the neutral shade, as well as its relationship to light and perception of space.

    On View | Time Exposed: Hiroshi Sugimoto’s Seascapes

    Time Exposed: Hiroshi Sugimoto’s Seascapes presents the decade-long project of the well-known photographer, Hiroshi Sugimoto (Japanese, b. 1948) for the first time at the Parrish Art Museum. Acquired by the Museum in 2022, the photolithograph series explores Sugimoto’s unwavering interest in the incremental atmospheric changes around vast bodies of water. Beginning in 1980, Sugimoto traveled to remote corners of the world to capture the variable moments where the sky meets the sea—a place of mystery that still intrigues the artist so many years later.

    On View | Rafael Lozano-Hemmer: Collider

    The latest installment of the Museum’s annual façade installation series features a new public artwork by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. Made up of hundreds of small LED spotlights that create a calm, rippling curtain of light along the Museum’s south wall, Collider is visible from Montauk Highway and up close from the Museum’s meadow. The lights react in real time to invisible cosmic radiation from outer space.
