All posts related to Emmett Shine on Hamptons for Emmett Shine.
[Emmett Shine and James Cruickshank] Apparently not everyone was at the polo on Saturday - those of more of an artistic set were celebrating the opening of The LOLA Gallery at 85 Jobs Lane in Southampton. With arms wide open, the community welcomed back LOLA, as Southampton is where this laidback gallery got it’s original groundings. The gallery, which is located right in the heart of the village across from Agawam Park, held host to a lively crowd for the opening reception including James Cruickshank, Emmett Shine, Harley Viera-Newton, Marc and Vanessa Packer, Tripoli Patterson, Max Barbaria and Suzanne Diaz of Max & Suzanne, and Genevieve Hudson-Price.

Preserve is a open-ended documentary project started this summer photographing local youths of the Hamptons in their natural environments. From the Native American Reservation in Southampton to the back parking lots of Sag Harbor, the teens of the Hamptons are seen as they are - complex, diverse teens existing in a dual environment of opulent excess and working-class strife.
The show is this Saturday, August 30th from 5:00 – 8:00 PM at 2546 Montauk Hwy (directly behind the old Bulls’ Head Inn). Emmett Shine was kind enough to give us an exclusive look at some of his photos that make up part of this project. We will be showcasing them all week long.

In the ever populating Hamptons, it is not always easy to stay afloat during the fast paced summer months. But for many of us it is not just the summer fun that we live here for. More important is the beauty of the land that we grew up in, its tranquility, and our friends — both ordinary and high profile folks alike.
With big new money, corporate moguls eye business opportunities in our small towns, intending to replace locally owned businesses with ever-expanding corporate models. Without standing up for a lifestyle we believe in and a community we hold dear, this lovely place we call “home” will soon be over-developed while the charm that once made it so special will be lost for future generations — historic buildings and protective variances becoming a thing of the past.
