Photos: New Art Exhibit Unveiled At Pierre's

EAST HAMPTON, NY — Pierre's, on Main Street in Bridgehampton, has a long-standing reputation for delicious food, drink, and friendly French atmosphere.

On Saturday afternoon, however, a new dimension was added, as Lawrence H. Randolph, an emerging artist from East Hampton, hung his latest show, "East End Art Attack", a collection of work depicting satirical commentary on life on the East End.

On display — and for sale as oil on canvas or giclee print — was a broad range of Randolph's work, from "My Alpha-Gal", a portrait of his poor wife Connie gardening in a Hazmat suit — a tick bite could be deadly — to the political: "Trump Card" and "Top Card Hillary", both the same size and price.

Randolph's signature piece, "En Plane Air," a play on "En Plein Air", touched upon the current debate about local air traffic rules.

Kathleen Cunningham, chairperson of the Quiet Skies Coalition, and also the executive director of the Village Preservation Society of East Hampton attended.

East Hampton Village Mayor Paul Rickenbach, Jr. came to support the artist, as well.

High-end fashion designer Elie Tahari, who has a shop in East Hampton, admired the work.

The show runs at Pierre's until December 6.
