On Charlotte Park
In conjunction with its current exhibition “Charlotte Park: The Life of Forms in Color,” the Parrish Art Museum will host a talk by Klaus Ottmann, its Robert Lehman Curator and organizer of the Park show, Friday at 6 p.m.
The exhibition follows the artist’s abstractions of color and form, inspired by organic life, from her tentative embraces of color in the mid-1950s through playful and assertive compositions in the ‘80s. Park’s work was often related to the woodsy environment where she lived and worked, off Neck Path in Springs.
Tickets are $20, $18 for senior citizens, $15 for members’ guests, $13 for members, and free for students and children.

The exhibition will run through Jan. 19.
