The Watermill Center, Arts and theater laboratory in Water Mill, New York, United States
The Watermill Center spans across multiple buildings surrounded by gardens and outdoor sculptures, featuring exhibition spaces, performance areas, and research facilities.
Robert Wilson established the center in 1992 by transforming a former Western Union research facility into an experimental arts space near Southampton.
The center maintains a collection of international artworks from Indonesia and Papua New Guinea alongside contemporary pieces by Paul Thek and Robert Mapplethorpe.
Visitors can schedule guided tours every Friday at 2:30 PM and access the study library throughout the year with prior reservations.
The architecture combines Bauhaus design principles with Indonesian architectural elements, creating an environment for artistic exploration and development.
