Yearly Hamptons Winter Art Show To Highlight Works Of More Than 50 Local Artists

Southampton Artists Association (SAA) will launch its 2020 season by hosting its yearly Winter Art Exhibit at the Levitas Center for the Arts located at the Southampton Cultural Center in Southampton.

“The Winter Exhibit is our first of four shows at the Southampton Cultural Center,” SAA board member Paul Dempsey relayed. “Our shows are always well represented, and we will be introducing a number of new members who will be exhibiting with us for the first time.”

The Winter Art Exhibit will premiere on Wednesday, February 19 and remain on view through Sunday, March 1.

The exhibition will boast works from more than 50 local, East End-based artists, with pieces ranging from oils to acrylics to mixed media to sculptures to photography. “Most of all the works are for sale, including many bin items at reasonable prices,” SAA board member Danielle Leef relayed.

The 2020 iteration will showcase pieces from Jean Arena, Ian Carson, Lance Corey, Jody Cukier, Paul Dempsey, Joe Denny, Robin Gianis, Dave Johns, Dom Lamontanaro, Danielle Leef, Jen Mahoney, Jim McGarvey, Pat McGrath, Pamela Morrison, Linda Nemeth, Sophie Sejourne, Neva Setlow, James Slezak, Pamela Thomson, Maureen Travers, and more. 

SAA was founded to champion local artists and offer opportunities for them to exhibit their work in professional venues. Its members, which include both professional and amateur artists, call the eastern end of Long Island home, with members on the South Fork residing from Remsenburg to Montauk and on the North Fork from Calverton to Orient Point. “Our Association is over 30 years old and seeks to sponsor and help enhance the cultural of art in the local area,” SAA board member James Slezak noted. “Southampton Artists Association serves as a point of contact for individuals with questions about the art activities in our area via our website.”

Focus points range drastically for each artist. “This winter I was not motivated to go outside much for scenes and things to photograph. So, my attention was drawn to materials in my studio. These materials included some magnets I had been experimenting with in our SAA efforts to put some art in the windows of empty stores in the Village of Southampton,” Slezak said about his process. “Some little metal parts and the magnets soon found themselves together and these struck me as tiny sculptures. So, I played around with these. Some I kept just as they literally fell together. Others I manipulated a bit or I just took them apart and began again. One image is a stack of linoleum nails and the other is group of tiny ball bearings. The sculptures are less than 2” big but I used a macro lens and these images can be blown up quite large where I think they have the most impact. I call these my ‘magnetics’ series. Other versions include upholstery tacks, thumb tacks, washers, lock washers, push pins, ball chain, nails and v-nails.”

Many find the area’s idyllic landscape a draw. “I will showing one of my most popular photographs titled The Face Of Winter – taken in the estate section of Southampton,” Dempsey shared. “It is printed on metal, my medium of choice lately. It creates a bright, almost surreal appearance.”

“Scotland native Jim McGarvey will be showcasing from his recent series of people highlighting human emotion,” Dempsey added. “Our poster image selected for the exhibit is from photographer Danielle Leef entitled Out On A Limb.“

The Winter Art Exhibit opening reception will be held on Saturday, February 22 from 4 to 6 p.m. Many of the artists will be in attendance and readily available to chat about their masterpieces. There is no fee to attend the opening.

In addition to the Winter Art Exhibit, SAA hosts a Memorial Day Show, Labor Day Show and Fall Art Show (November). The organization also spearheads a fine outdoor art show at the Art in the Park (July) held at Agawam Park in Southampton, as well as an annual collective members show at the Town Hall in Southampton (December and January) annually.

For those looking to work on their skills, SAA sponsors a duo of classes taught by professional artists. A life drawing class led by Linda Capello is presented on Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., while an all media workshop taught by SAA President Dom Lamontanaro takes place on Thursdays from 1 to 4 p.m.

Southampton Cultural Center is located at 25 Pond Lane in Southampton. For more information, visit southamptonartists.org.

Hamptons Hotel Earns Top Spot On U.S. News & World Report's Best Hotels List

  • I recently toured the new Rolex Boutique by London Jewelers in East Hampton, and it’s one of the most beautiful retail spaces I’ve ever stepped into. Located on Newtown Lane, the boutique is set inside a restored historic home that dates back to 1897, originally designed as a summer cottage.⁠
⁠
From the outside, it has that classic East Hampton charm, cedar shingles, white trim, and lush landscaping. But once you step inside, it’s all about quiet sophistication.⁠
⁠
The space is warm and welcoming, with walnut wood paneling, soft neutral tones, and beautiful textures throughout. There’s a fluted marble wall in a rich green Verdi Alpi stone that immediately catches your eye. It’s one of those details that’s understated but unmistakably Rolex.⁠

  • Although Mavericks has only been open for two years, it has quickly become a Montauk staple beloved by locals and summer vacationers. Under the helm of Executive Chef and Montauk local Jeremy Blutstein, Mavericks stands out in the Hamptons restaurant scene with large-format dishes, sunset views, and an elegant ambiance marked by an exclusive contemporary art collection.⁠
⁠
⁠
Hamptons.com caught up with Jeremy to talk about his favorite dish, Mavericks’ menu, and his go-to lunch spot.⁠
⁠
⁠
When did you first realize you wanted to be a chef?⁠
⁠
⁠
I wouldn’t say there was a defining moment when I knew I wanted to be a chef. I do know that the first time I worked in a restaurant, I was hooked on the whole experience. I was a teenager at The Farmhouse Restaurant in East Hampton (which is now Moby’s). The structure within the chaos was intoxicating, and we had to make everything happen because there was no other option. Thriving in those high-stress environments was like a drug.⁠
⁠
⁠
What’s your favorite dish to cook and why?⁠
⁠
⁠
I don’t come from a cooking family, so I don’t have any go-to Grandma’s recipes or food traditions. I’ve always been drawn to what’s available at the moment. I grew up with my very dear friend Alex Balsam (from Balsam Farms in Amagansett), who has been obsessed with farming as far back as our 35-year friendship began. He taught me where and who our food comes from. I’m also a big believer in the old “keep it simple stupid” mantra. Honest ingredients seasoned well and cooked with honest intentions. ⁠
