Collage and Assemblage

Among them are Shinique Smith and Emmanuel Massillon, whose work explores issues of identity and hybridity; Joe Overstreet, who collages strips of acrylic paint over his stretched canvases; James Phillips, whose compositions reflect his association with AfriCOBRA, a Chicago-based group of African-American artists, and Varnette Honeywood, Judy Bowman, and Derrick Adams, whose collage works celebrate Black culture.
LongHouse Talks
The talks series at LongHouse Reserve in East Hampton will continue with talks by Michele Oka Doner on Saturday at 5 p.m., and Glenn Adamson on Sunday afternoon at 3.
An artist and writer who works in a variety of mediums, Ms. Doner will consider the symbiotic connection between art, nature, and human life. Mr. Adamson, LongHouse's new curator at large, will discuss his recent book, "Craft: An American History," which contextualizes the postwar studio craft movement.
The first American commission of the Taiwanese artist Cheng Tsung Feng, a human-scale bamboo pavilion, will be reconstructed at LongHouse by the artist from Saturday through Wednesday. Visitors have been invited to witness the process, and Mr. Feng will lead a bamboo workshop from 10 to noon on Wednesday.
Tickets for the talks and workshop are $35, $25 for members.
Stella at The End
A survey of Frank Stella's sculpture from 1993 to the present is on view in two installations at the Ranch in Montauk. Conceived in collaboration with the artist, the show includes an outdoor presentation of five monumental sculptures that can be seen through Nov. 1, and, in the west barn through July 31, a selection of smaller-scale sculptures and wall-bound constructions.
Most of the works are united by suggestions of movement. For example, the star sculptures represent Mr. Stella's interest in complex geometry and celestial motion.

The Southampton outpost of Christie's auction house is presenting "The Great Indoors," the second exhibition of its summer season. A survey of interior scenes by modern masters, including Edgar Degas, Henri Matisse, Milton Avery, and Andrew Wyeth, as well as by contemporary artists, the exhibition explores the pivotal role the interior has played in art history by juxtaposing artworks from across a century.
The works are available for immediate purchase and on view through July 31.

An exhibition of work by Casey Chalem Anderson, Adriana Barone, and Roger Sichel is opening on Thursday at the Romany Kramoris Gallery in Sag Harbor, and will continue through July 28. A reception will be held Saturday from 5 to 6:30 p.m.
Ms. Anderson's paintings are inspired by and depict the East End landscape and its natural forms. Ms. Barone's paintings have vibrant colors, Twombly-like scribbles, and a few recognizable elements amid the mostly abstract marks. Mr. Sichel uses digital photography to create images inspired by his own life and current events.
Celebrating Diversity
"Caress," a show of paintings by Jeffrey Cheung, is on view at the Jack Hanley Gallery in East Hampton through July 31. The works feature naked androgynous figures, depicted in various shapes and body types.

Geometry, Reincarnation
"Vortex Activated," a show of paintings by Sky Kim, is on view at Chase Contemporary through July 18.
Ms. Kim's paintings, composed of intricate circles and spirals in vibrant colors, explore such themes as sacred geometry, quantum physics, and reincarnation, and reflect the artist's belief that humans exist simultaneously in multiple dimensions. The exhibition features works from her "Vortex" and "Multiverse" series.
Folk Art in Sag
An exhibition of woodcarvings by Warren McHugh, a self-taught folk artist, will open Saturday at Keyes Art in Sag Harbor with a reception from 6 to 8 p.m. and continue through Sept. 1.
McHugh summered in Sag Harbor from the 1960s to the mid-'80s. He opened the village's first art gallery, the Art Stall, in 1961. Later, he began to work with found objects. His carvings depict historical figures from the 18th and 19th centuries as well as literary and popular characters.

The Shed Is Back
East Hampton Shed will open "Ultramarine Boring," an exhibition of paintings by Jordan Rhoat and Brad Phillips, on Saturday, with a reception from 6 to 8 p.m.
Mr. Rhoat sources photographs from Craigslist and transforms them into flat paintings whose often commonplace and fragmentary images include a plant on a windowsill and an open doorway.
Mr. Phillips's work veers between figuration and words and between relatively straightforward representation of people and humorous texts.
The exhibition will be open by appointment via [email protected] through July 31.

Greek Portrait Busts
"Hellenic Heads," an exhibition of sculptures by George Petrides, can be seen at The Muses, a dining and event venue at the Greek Orthodox Church in Southampton, through Sept. 5.
The artist, who divides his time between New York City and Athens, Greece, set out to create portrait busts that represent six periods of Greek culture and history, from the Classical period (510 B.C. to 323 B.C.) to the present. Mr. Petrides has a personal connection to one historical event, the 1922 destruction of Smyrna; his grandmother fled Smyrna for Piraeus in 1922.
