On Saturday, July, 12, the Parrish Art Museum welcomed over 1,000 guests, including artists, business leaders, and philanthropists, to its Herzog & de Meuron-designed building in Water Mill, New York. The museum’s annual fundraising soiree, which was hosted by museum director Terrie Sultan, raised an unprecedented $1.25 million for the institution.
The Parrish’s light and airy home, which opened in 2012, was styled by the New York City-based studio Ron Wendt Design. The decor was inspired by Jennifer Bartlett’s painting, “Amagansett Diptych #1,” a richly-hued beach scene made up of delicately woven, grid-like brushstrokes.
