Artists, if they have really made a mark, might get a gallery dedicated to their work once they are gone. Gilbert and George don’t want to wait that long. The dapper duo, who have been creating beguiling and unsettling art together for over half a century, have poured their own time and money into the Gilbert and George Center, a permanent exhibition and research space devoted to their work. Located just off bustling Brick Lane in London’s East End, the building opens to the public April 1 with an exhibition of the big, bold photo assemblies for which the pair has become famous. Admission is free — and that, they say, is important.

On the eastern end of Long Island, New York, lies a trove of art venues and a rich cultural scene to explore at leisure. You can find works in lush gardens and meadows, on manicured lawns, around ponds with waterlilies, by marshy creeks, and in historic Hamptons buildings. The list of galleries and arts centers has grown longer just in the last few years. The area, a few hours east of New York City, has drawn artists since the 19th century. It thrives on summer tourism, so the art season kicks off in spring and peaks in late autumn. Indoor and outdoor exhibits change regularly, and some venues are open year-round. Many also include the performing arts, as well as educational programs. Some highlights: Doris Brautigan looks at Marko Remec's "Would That I Wish For, (Tall Tote...
