This summer, the North Fork’s Landcraft Garden Foundation invites visitors to experience “Sculpture in the Garden,” its fifth annual outdoor art exhibition, featuring a major new installation by internationally renowned artist Sarah Sze. On view every Friday and Saturday through October 25, the site-specific piece — “Markings, Calls and Songs” — offers a poetic encounter between contemporary art and the natural world.
Sze, whose work defies traditional boundaries between painting, sculpture, and installation, has created a suspended, two-plane structure in a grove of pines using printed imagery, cords, and Tyvek. The composition plays with one-point perspective, turning this classical painterly device into a three-dimensional experience rooted in the garden’s landscape. Curated by artist Ugo Rondinone, the piece transforms a quiet section of Landcraft Gardens into a contemplative portal between the intimate and the infinite.
“Her extraordinary work reads like a fractured set of fables,” Rondinone says, “reminding us to stay hopeful and not forget how beautiful the world is.”
Known for her large-scale public installations and museum exhibitions across the globe, Sze brings her multidisciplinary practice to Mattituck just ahead of upcoming solo exhibitions in Denver and Paris.
Landcraft Gardens, open Fridays and Saturdays, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., is located at 4342 Grand Avenue. Admission is $20 for adults, $17 for seniors and students, and free for members and children under two. For more information, visit landcraftgardenfoundation.org.
