Sean Scully: 48 LongHouse Reserve 2026 Season
18 April 2026 – Ongoing
LongHouse Reserve, East Hampton, NY, USA
This season LongHouse welcomes the world-renowned Irish American artist Sean Scully into the garden with his colored stack entitled 48 (2024), a piece that epitomizes his deliberate use of stripes and color, with gestures toward land, sea, and sky. Scully transforms the rigid geometry of the stripe and the grid into a profound visual language of emotion, history, and light. Declared the “greatest living abstract painter,” Dublin-Born Scully moved from London to New York in 1975 then spent a summer in Montauk in 1982, shifting the paradigm in abstraction from minimalism to emotional abstraction. His work navigates the elemental relationships that comprise our world; embracing nature and life. LongHouse celebrates Sean as an explorer of the human spirit.
