Sag Harbor Artistry at The Church

Mon, 04/24/2023 - 14:38
Sabina Streeter's "I want you, Mitch" is the artist's response to a still from Douglas Sirk's film "Written on the Wind."

Two Sag Harbor artists, Sabina Streeter and Michael A. Butler, will be at The Church in Sag Harbor this weekend to talk about their work.

On Saturday at noon, Ms. Streeter will have a conversation with Giulia D'Agnolo Vallan, the founding artistic director of the Sag Harbor Cinema, about the cinema's current exhibition, "Tarnished Angels: Douglas Sirk's America." 

The show features Ms. Streeter's gestural portraits inspired by stills from the films of the late director, who was admired for his 1950s Hollywood melodramas. 

The Church's Insight Sunday series will bring Mr. Butler there on Sunday morning at 10:30, when he will discuss his paintings and the rich history of Sag Harbor, where his ancestral ties date from the 1920s.

A self-taught artist who regards his work as "narrative folk," Mr. Butler creates meticulous paintings that draw from mythology, religion, and legend, as well as the landscapes, history, and inhabitants, past and present, of the East End.

Tickets to each program are $10, free for members, who are required to R.S.V.P. on the venue's website.
