The Church will host a special after hours discussion on Friday, April 12, at 6 p.m. of the exhibition “Space — Sight — Line” with chief curator Sara Cochran who will lead guests on a tour of the show. She will then be joined by an esteemed group of collaborators essential to the exhibition: Sarah Heinemann, artist and senior lead draftsperson for the Sol LeWitt Studio, who installed “Wall Drawing 528B” and James Miller, artist and Jim Lambie studio assistant who installed “Zobop (Wild Poppy)” on The Church’s front stairs. The group will explore the intricate process and intriguing ideas behind the installation of site-specific works. A Q&A will follow the tour and discussion.
From heavy ropes in waveform patterns suspended from the rafters of The Church to hand-painted walls and hand-laid vinyl staircase patterns, “Space — Sight — Line,” which is on view through May 26 at The Church, required expert installers and creative teams to come to work in the building and bring these works to life. Learn how the exhibition was conceived, how the processes unfolded, and how an exhibition experience that explores our visual perception and makes our perspectives the key dynamic came to be.
Admission for the program is $20 ($10 for members). The Church is at 48 Madison Street in Sag Harbor. Visit thechurchsagharbor.org for details.
