Compromise Sought in 'Legs' Dispute

Dispute over a Larry Rivers sculpture in Sag Harbor could be resolved.

The Sag Harbor Zoning Board of Appeals has decided to hold off on making a decision on whether a sculpture by Larry Rivers known as "Legs" can remain on display on the side of Ruth Vered and Janet Lehr's house on Madison Street, reports.

Vered says "Legs" is a work of art she has the right to display, but the building inspector declared it an illegal accessory structure, and the ZBA is weighing both arguments. According to The Express, Chairwoman Gayle Pickering suggested that a compromise be worked out that would prohibit new installations, detail how long the "Legs" can stay put, and ensure that it cannot be lighted at night.
