A Portrait of Jack Larsen and the World He Made
Guild Hall will hold a premiere screening of “Larsenworld: LongHouse in East Hampton” tomorrow night at 8. The 23-minute film chronicles the many facets of the career and dreams of Jack Lenor Larsen, the noted textile designer and collector who established the LongHouse Foundation, now LongHouse Reserve, in 1991.
The film will be followed by a panel discussion including Mr. Larsen, Eric Fischl, one of the artists featured in the film; Caroline Baumann, director of the Cooper-Hewitt-Smithsonian Design Museum, Ralph Gibson, a multimedia artist who composed the music, and Susan Wald and Edgar Howard, who directed the film. Andrea Grover, Guild Hall’s executive director, will moderate the discussion.
The program is free, but reservations are required.
