We are a big fan of Sylwia Pydych, and the above painting tells you why. If you want to check out her stuff, you can see it Sunday October 12 from 7pm-9pm at the local boutique Bonne Nuit on Main Street in East Hampton.
Sylwia Pydych has worked and studied with Ron Hicks, Robert Liberace, Hung Nian Zhang and David Leffel. Her influences have been Classical artists such as John Singer Sargent, Andres Zorn, Ilia Repin, Ivan Kramskoy and Rodin. Both commercial and private clients have commissioned Sylwia and her paintings and sculpture can be found in private collections in the United States and Europe.
She is a very lovely and talented lady with a brush. Go check it out!

We’ve seen Eileen Hickey-Hulme down at surfer yoga with Jimmy Minardi, so how can we not let you know about her art show? Plus, we absolutely love her art! Click right here and see an amazing video that she made for the show!
Eileen Hickey-Hulme, Bang, Bang!!!! Guns and Roses” at Prudential Douglas Elliman 16 Main Street, Route 27 Amagansett 631-267-9700 May 1-31, 2008. Opening Reception Saturday, May 3, 2008, 6-8 PM.
#1 with a bullet employing such materials as lipstick, nail polish, eye shadow and marine paint, Eileen Hickey-Hulme’s paintings question and disrupt the viewer’s understanding and experience of a painting. Although Hickey-Hulme’s work does not always involve paint on canvas, it continually reflects upon the fundamental questions concerning painting today, including authenticity, hierarchy, meaning and context.

The Southampton Parrish Art Museum has on display some pretty crazy origami art. The exhibition will be running through June, so you still have some time. But it is so insanely cool, definitely a good place to bring your kids or to just go to see what people can do with a piece of paper. Paper Transformed: Origami brings together nearly one hundred works by some of the world’s leading contemporary origami artists and demonstrates the diversity of technique and wide range of interpretation possible in origami today.
It is so worth checking out.

East Hampton officials have denied the Seafair Yacht, an awesomely sized yacht pictured here that sells desireable art around the world. The reason they denied was because they were concerned about parking issues and about the yachts ability to navigate Three Mile Harbor. There was also that tiny issue of using the commercial dock, which would undoubtedly tick off the fisherman.
Seafair made this same request last year and got denied by East Hampton. This year however, they are not messing around and applied to Sag Harbor as well. Sag Harbor, known for it’s yachts, happily invited the Seafair to stay at the main dock in the village. Good for Sag! We love this always rising star in the Hamptons real estate empire.
Now if only I could come up with a few hundred million for a Monet!

The New York based, MBFA currently inventories works by Milton Avery, Arthur B. Carles, Stuart Davis, Willem de Kooning, Rockwell Kent, Marsden Hartley, John Marin, Georgia O’Keefe and Charles Sheeler to name a few.

Who says rock shows have to cost $3,000 a pop? Tim Dalene of NRO (No Real Organization) and Telemark Builders in Bridgehampton and pals have finished the completion of their half pipe which will be at the music and art event known throughout town as CHIAROSCURO (click here for date and time). Don’t ask us how to pronounce it.
Judging by these pictures, it should be pretty radical. Among the bands playing will be The Isles, Tequila Mockingbird, Kiss Kiss, Consent of Kings, Bastards of Boom, Jet Jaguar, Blue Jackets, Hot Lips Houlihan and Igniter. All this will happen this Saturday at East Hampton Studios. Rock on.

We know that it may be difficult to believe just by looking at it, but this is not a notebook and baseball cards. This is a block of wood and paint that was hand carved out by local East Hampton artist Randy Rosenthal. Randy just played in the artists writers game last week as a pitcher and his stunning hand carvings that look indistinguishable from the real thing take your breath away. So much so that his work goes for thousands of dollars, is displayed at the Smithsonian museum in Washington D.C. and are auctioned off at fund-raisers for Baystreet Theater.
Even if you look close at this picture you can’t tell the difference.
Art is alive and well in East Hampton. This guy has got skills.
