The Parrish Art Museum will screen the 1989 satirical short film “Home,” about a tyrannical “starchitect” on Friday, April 5, at 6 p.m. followed by a discussion with the filmmaker.
The screening is part of the Water Mill museum’s “Intersections: The Architect in Conversation” series.
Sandy Perlbinder’s short was featured at the Sundance Film Festival. It was inspired by her own experiences enduring construction and renovation with a “specific type of architect.”
“I’m excited to screen this pointed film and examine the myth of the contemporary starchitect and the psychology behind the expectations and aspirations of people who have their homes designed,” said Corinne Erni, the Parrish curator of special projects and ArtsReach.
Joining Ms. Perlbinder for the discussion will be architecture critic Paul Goldberger of Vanity Fair, Sag Harbor architect James Merrell and Sag Harbor psychoanalyst Dr. Robby Stein. Museum Director Terrie Sultan will moderate.
Admission is $12, or free for museum members and students.
