‘Artists Love Movies’

The Sag Harbor Cinema Arts Center will launch a new series of film screenings, “Artists Love Movies,” on Sunday evening at 6 in the Pierson High School auditorium in Sag Harbor.

The first program will feature “Oblako-ray,” a Glasnost-era satire made by Nikolai Dostal after the fall of the Soviet Union. It has been selected by the artist Eric Fischl, who will lead a discussion after the screening. Admission is by a suggested $10 donation.

Other artists scheduled to participate are David Salle, Robert Wilson, Laurie Simmons, Sara Driver, April Gornik, Alex Israel, and Maria Bacardi. Future programs will be held at the Southampton Arts Center and the Ross School.

An art auction of work by more than 90 artists for the benefit of the cinema is now live on Paddle8. Participants include Ross Bleckner, Cindy Sherman, Mr. Fischl, Ms. Gornik, Mary Heilmann, Bryan Hunt, and many others.
