The Parrish Art Museum, a long-held artistic treasure on the East End of Long Island since 1898, underwent a grand rebirth in 2012 when the museum built a new 34,400 square foot space in Watermill. Designed by the talented Swiss architectural team of Herzog & de Meuron, the museum’s new home has celebrated significant milestones and accolades since opening its doors just under two years ago. This summer the institution continues its artistic legacy by presenting an eclectic array of programs, exhibits and events celebrating the world’s most talented artists while expanding its collection and growing its membership.

In January the museum received the Design Award for Best Museum by Travel + Leisure magazine in its tenth annual International Design Competition. The previous year Wallpaper magazine bestowed upon it a 2013 Design Award for Best Public Building of the Year. In 2012 The Wall Street Journal listed it as one of the best new museums. Critical accolades abound for the new building itself, but the museum made sure there was purpose behind the architectural undertaking. When laying the groundwork for the design of the new museum, it was important for the organization to pay tribute to the rich heritage of the area and community surrounding the building. Terrie Sultan, the Director of The Parrish Art Museum, spoke about this. “The core values of the Parrish are inspired by the artistic life and natural setting of Long Island’s East End. The design of the new building beautifully underscores this in every way. It reflects the vernacular, agricultural architecture of the farming community, and references the artists’ use of converted barns for studios. This was very purposeful. The simplicity of the structure, the skylights in the galleries, and the reinforcement of the relationship of art to nature, inside to outside, were all concepts that the architects embraced.”
