The East End is home to a multitude of masterful artists, and their inspiring art is on display across the Hamptons and North Fork. Here are this week’s top East End art exhibitions—including the Dan’s Papers SculptTour and more!
Art on the Vines at Borghese Vineyard
Saturday, May 29, 11 a.m.–5 p.m.

It’s Never Abstract to Its Author
On view through June 15.
AB NY Gallery kicks off the season with an exhibition featuring paintings and sculpture by Thomas Kovachevich, Marc Chiat, Kristy Schopper, Quentin Curry, Stanley Casselman, Walter Schrank, Tommaso Fattovich, Michael Manning, Mie Yim and William Quigley. The public opening takes place this Saturday, 5–8 p.m.

Scratching (Sculpting, Stitching and Staining) the Surface
On view through June 30.
Textures—and the diverse techniques employed to achieve them—define this season’s abstract offerings at Ric Michel Fine Art (RMFA) Southampton. Sculpted oils by Jeffrey Terreson and Erin Loree, prodded encaustics by Lynn Basa and poured resins by Lola produce very different topographies, as do the found object grafts of Stanley Boxer and Gregory Hengesbaugh. Building upon a substrate of stitched burlap sacks in “The Fishermen of Pearl River,” Eduardo Terranova combines hand-molded plaster, metallic plating and crushed pearls to create myriad lusters and textures within a single painting.

Dan’s Papers SculptTour
On view through September 7.
The SculptTour is both a rare opportunity to get close to works of art usually reserved for private galleries and sculpture gardens and also a chance to get to know the villages of the East End in a lovingly curated tour. Sculptures by artists such as the great Hans Van de Bovenkamp can be found from Riverhead to Westhampton Beach and all along Montauk Highway in the Hamptons. Visit the Louis K. Meisel Gallery website to view the interactive map of sculptures.
