His latest work, Building #3, is outfitted with a wet bar, Chanel cosmetics, and a Japanese tearoom.
“Building #3 is currently perched like an alien craft on a sandy links-style hillock above the 18th hole of a Hamptons golf club for gazillionaires, with a stunning view of Noyack Bay and unimaginable entitlement,” writes Dakin Hart, senior curator at the Noguchi Museum, in an essay on artist Tom Sachs’s latest work, titled Building #3. Indeed, Sachs’s otherworldly, spacecraft-like sculpture is currently stationed in the dunes of Bridgehampton, though its next touchdown point remains unknown. Once the piece finishes its run in the Hamptons, it will likely enter into a private collection—or a backyard.
