ARTOVATION – Contemporary Art in the Digital Age
The way artists, curators, galleries, museums, and journalists have utilized Internet technology, mobile communication, and social media has created new opportunities for discussion, creativity and expression. Eight dynamic speakers will cover the new and innovative ways we are experiencing art in the palm of our hands, behind the computer, in public, at art fairs, and in museums.

This workshop is designed to strengthen your will and mind so that you can distribute inner healing energies (prana) throughout your body.
The workshop will begin by warming up and stretching your physical body with conscious heart opening asanas/poses. We will emphasize breath and bringing prana into the body with each movement. Next we will slow down our movements with a few yummy restorative heart openers followed by a guided meditation and the main event.
Our main focus in the workshop will be the powerful mandala exercise where we will make a luminous drawing of our hands. The drawing will act as a simple biofeedback device- a visual mirror to our eyes and brain- by making the invisible energies visible and more “real” to our conscious mind. As you draw your consciousness, prana, physical body, and paper and pencil all will be linked in an alchemic healing process.
Healing alchemy is the magical transformation that occurs when the artist consciously focuses and directs “prana” through the body out of the hands and fingers and, along with his or her individual inspired soul-consciousness, into materials such as (in this case) pencil and paper.
We will close with a meditation and gazing upon our drawings, with the intention that you become aware of the healing energies present within the body.
Please bring a yoga mat, pillows, blankets, drums, musical instruments , or any stones or personal items that inspire you on a deep level!
Price: $35.00 (includes all materials)

Pubbelly Hosts Photography Expo 12/4/12
Pubbelly To Host Photography Expo Beginning
Tuesday, December 4, 2012
Pubbelly Gastropub
1418 20th Street
South Beach. FL
Miami Beach Restaurant Supports Local Artist/Hospitality Professional in His Inaugural Photography Exposition
Pubbelly, Miami Beach’s favorite locals-centric gastropub, will host their first-ever photography exposition, in-restaurant, during the month of December. Beginning December 4, just in time for Art Basel and carrying on through the end of the month, the exposition, entitled Juice of the Gods will feature the work of Miami local, friend and fellow hospitality professional Luke Mathot.
A wine aficionado and avid photographer, Mathot, who is currently the Food and Beverage Director at the new SLS South Beach has based his exposition on images captured at various wineries he has visited throughout the world, including regions in France, Spain and Italy, as well as Oregon and California, among others.
Ranging from close ups of gorgeous grapes growing on the vine or a winemakers hands holding smashed fruit, to rows and rows of wine bottles or intriguing angles of aging barrels, Mathot’s images evoke feelings of warmth and celebration with Old World charm, and are ideal for any bar, eating or gathering space.
“We are thrilled to host this exposition with Luke’s photography,†says Andreas Schreiner, owner of Pubbelly. “His images are gorgeous and he is a great friend, but most importantly, we want to support the local arts community, as well as a fellow hospitality professional.â€
All of the art work will be for sale direct through the artist, and if all goes well, Schreiner plans to continue to host different expositions of local artists on a quarterly basis.
Naked Art Basel: Sagamore Hotel’s Exhibit Strips Convolution, Exposes Raw and Pure Display 12/3/12-12/9/12
Naked Art Basel: Sagamore Hotel’s Exhibit Strips Convolution, Exposes Raw & Pure Display

Fundamental 2012
Sagamore, The Art Hotel – An Evocative Presentation of Nature and Humanity.
Beneath convolution rests clarity—raw, naked and pure. In art, such elements clearly reflect and speak to the human soul. A departure from the colorful art-fair extravagance, one South Beach hotel has eliminated the usual embellishments to offer Art Baselers a glimpse into the captivating, organic fusion of exposed nature and the human form.
Sagamore, The Art Hotel, on Miami Beach, along with its owner, art collector and curator Cricket Taplin, proudly presents FUNDAMENTAL, 2012, highly edited Selections from the Cricket Taplin Collection. The property-wide exhibition, on display during Art Basel Miami Beach 2012, celebrates the essential and provocative aspects of nature, life and culture.
FUNDAMENTAL 2012 disarms the viewer with a cohesive presentation of understated magnificence. Commonalities— natural hues, simple shapes and textures, unaltered lighting, and organic materials—link each piece to the exhibition’s theme of fundamentalism. Each artwork included boldly portrays the core elements of its subject. The conceptual focus of the collection highlights the bonds between nature and its offspring—the human form. Significant attention is paid to the symbol of all beginnings, the female body, and the elemental extremes of black and white.
The exhibit features cultural standouts like Emil Lukas, whose work relates to the perception of pressure and form in a constant investigation of structure and materials. The renowned artist’s four pieces within FUNDAMENTAL, “Bulge,†“Anatomy of Amber Curve,†“Moon,†and “Wrap,†tell the story of pressure—created both by universal forces and man. On loan from the Sperone Westwater Gallery, the pieces feature strong representations of physicality and are made of organic materials including wood, thread, wax and jute.
Demonstrating the intertwining of man and environment, Michele Oka Doner’s “Sargassa,†2008—an eight-foot tall relief print on handmade paper from plant pulp—presents an imaginary goddess of the sea from the artist’s ongoing personal mythology into human form captured by oceanic entities such as algae and seaweeds.
Highlighting FUNDAMENTAL’s gender inspiration, Christina Petersson’s massive, 72″ x 96″ graphite on paper, “I Will Still Be Here, Long after the Kingdom Cometh,†2011, shares an impactful message of a woman’s connection to nature—fierce and corporal.
Capturing natural sensuality, Beatriz Millar’s video piece “Lux Matter†offers a journey—via a captivating video set to classical music –into the female power of creation in the preparation of bread and its offering as nourishment, a human fundamental need. The piece captures iconic reflections of female sexuality, natural wonders and the transformation of elements. Additionally, the piece investigates female roles and the borders between art and craft.
Adding to FUNDAMENTAL’s strength is a showcase of pure yet provoking photography from world renowned artists including Manuel Alvarez Bravo, Diane Arbus, Morris Engel, Walker Evans, Elliott Erwitt, Lee Friedlander, Graciela Iturbide, Helen Levitt, Martin Parr, Charles Pratt, Walter Rosenblum, Joe Schwartz, Louis Stettner, and Francesca Woodman. The artworks by Melissa Dubbin and Aaron S. Davidson, Jacopo Foggini, Rashawn Griffin, Tom Lieber, Mike and Doug Starn, and Shoshana Weinberger will also be featured within the exhibition.
In tradition, Sagamore, The Art Hotel, is hosting their Annual Art Basel Brunch on Saturday, Dec. 8, 2012. For the most sought-after Art Basel event of the season, the hotel partners with six local museums including the Bass Museum of Art, Lowe Art Museum, Miami Art Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art, The Patricia & Phillip Frost Museum of Art at FIU, and the Wolfsonian-FIU.
“This year’s collection is outstanding in its pureness and gathering of extraordinary talent,†said Cricket Taplin. “The pieces evoke innate reactions and will connect visitors to primary instincts. We present a refreshing, natural experience that will encourage individuals to reflect on the links between man and environment.â€
Avid collectors, Cricket Taplin and her husband, Marty Taplin, spent much time traveling the world to visit and collaborate with artists, galleries, museums, and private and public collections. The Taplin’s purchased Miami Beach’s famed Sagamore Hotel in 1997. Cricket Taplin then made the curatorial decision to share her personal collection within the hotel, putting the Taplin’s, their collection and the Sagamore at the center of the Miami Art Community. The property has hosted world-renowned artists for innovative art projects, including Massimo Vitali, Yoko Ono, Spencer Tunick, Olaf Breuning, Elliot Erwitt, and Roxy Paine. The Cricket Taplin Collection is a well-noted collection and exhibition space that furthers the dialogue on living intimately with art, collecting, exhibition, and public interface. Several projects have been praised for their public accessibility, performance and participatory aspects. These include The Stairwell Project and Timescapes, which involved invited artists from the New World School of the Arts who created murals in the stairwells of the hotel, as well as Spencer Tunick’s 2007 on-site art installation, a controversial, yet well-received photo shoot featuring hundreds of people in the nude.

Taylor is the daughter of renowned bluesman Otis Taylor and toured in his band for seven years as bassist and backup vocalist. Staking a claim as a musician in her own right, her thumping bass lines, sultry vocals, original songs, witty sense of humor and high energy performance creates a diverse act resembling an old time variety show or cabaret.
Not to be missed, Cassie Taylor and the Soul Cavalry will be enjoyed by even the most traditional of blues fans.

S.T.A.R.S. School for Autism is a non-profit organization with a commitment to provide a tailored learning experience for children with autism. The primary mission of S.T.A.R.S. is to provide an individualized scientifically varied education to children with autism. Through partnerships with the community and families, our students receive an integrative and systemic approach to education, aimed to help children reach their optimal potential.
S.T.A.R.S School for Autism is one of the very few schools in the State of Florida to incorporate holistic methods as part of the schools curriculum and is the first school in Miami-Dade to offer early intervention to children with autism. This holistic approach is implemented through DAP Wellness’ C.H.E.S.S. (Children’s Holistic Educational Support Services) program which is designed to meet the specific educational, developmental and emotional needs of each and every S.T.A.R.S. student and family.
S.T.A.R.S. is playing an important role in helping children and families whose lives are impacted by Autism. This important work is supported largely by the support of generous donors and partners who contribute to our cause. Without the continued support of generous donors like; El Dorado, TD Bank, CAC Medical Centers, POSH Beauty Studio, and Cao Chocolates the mission of S.T.A.R.S would not be feasible. Without contribution from these remarkable organizations and others, the financial resources that are unavoidably necessary to maintain the level of excellence we have achieved in education and environment for our students will likely go unmet.
S.T.A.R.S. is still working to reach its yearly philanthropic goal. We need help from the community in order to continue providing much needed services to low-income families in our community who are in need of assistance. In order to continue making a difference in the lives of individuals affected by the work of S.T.A.R.S. School for Autism, it is vital for us to meet this goal.
Join us on Friday, November 30, 2012 as S.T.A.R.S. School for Autism will be giving thanks and celebrating the advances made in the education and wellness of our students, at the 2nd Annual “Giving Thanks to the Different Colors of Autism.†The evening will begin at 6:00pm at the Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum at Florida International University, and will feature open galleries, food & drink, music, a raffle, a silent auction with prizes such as; a makeover at POSH Beauty Salon, tickets to see the Miami Heat, an inclusive trip to the 2013 Emmy Awards, and more! There will also be a very special surprise that will feature the students of S.T.A.R.S. displaying their many colors! A minimum donation of $25.00 per person will be collect upon entrance.
All proceeds for this event will go to support the education and therapies of the S.T.A.R.S. students. For more information on our program and contact information can be found on our website: www.starsautism.org.

OHWOW presents It Ain’t Fair 12/6/12-12/9/12
OHWOW is pleased to announce the fifth and final edition of the annual group exhibition It Ain’t Fair (IAF)
December 6 – 9, 2012
Friday and Saturday, 11 to 7 PM

Coinciding with Art Basel Miami Beach, It Ain’t Fair 2012 celebrates the history and tradition of IAF’s renowned multimedia production, and closes the chapter on what came to define OHWOW’s identity as a community platform for progressive art in all media.
Since the first installment in 2008, It Ain’t Fair proved an innovative and divergent idea; an exhibition and project providing an alternate experience to the dozens of December art fairs in Miami. The exhibition continued to evolve through the years, yet always reflected its time, excelling at capturing the trends occurring in contemporary art. Over the course of IAF’s history, OHWOW presented a wide range of work from artists in many disciplines: from Tauba Auerbach to Ashley Bickerton, Cyprien Gaillard to Clayton Patterson, Gang Gang Dance to The Gossip; visual arts, films, and performances coalesced into genre defining examples of the moment.
The final IAF moves from the Design District to a 6,000 square foot location on the beach to accommodate a large-scale exhibition and various projects, delivering a climactic conclusion to this definitive enterprise. It Ain‘t Fair 2012 assembles a selection of over 30 contemporary artists, many who contributed in past years, along with several new names: David Adamo, Diana Al-Hadid, Daniel Arsham, Scott Campbell, Julia Chiang, Dan Colen, Brian DeGraw, Sam Falls, Leo Fitzpatrick, James Franco, Cyprien Gaillard, Michael Genovese, Luis Gispert, Drew Heitzler, George Herms, KAWS, Harmony Korine, Hanna Liden, Nate Lowman, Ryan McGinley, Laurel Nakadate, Eddie Peake, Terry Richardson, Bert Rodriguez, Amanda Ross-Ho, Prem Sahib, Aurel Schmidt, Jack Siegel, Lucien Smith, Agathe Snow, Kon Trubkovich, Nick van Woert, Garth Weiser, Amy Yao, and Kim Ye, among others.
In addition, OHWOW brings its Los Angeles-based pirate station, Know Wave Radio (www.know-wave.com), to Miami Beach for a week of live programming to include performances, DJ sets, and interviews. Part art project, part community broadcast, Know Wave has presented a rotating cast of special guests such as Mykki Blanco, Nate Lowman, Kate and Laura Mulleavy, and Cat Power, among others. IAF 2012 will also host a soup kitchen – a social project that provides free dinner to anyone wanting a meal, daily from 5 to 7 PM. Hundreds of artists and creatives make the trip to Art Basel Miami Beach every year on shoestring budgets; the soup kitchen gives back and supports a community that has helped shape the energy and success of OHWOW’s endeavors.
Established in 2008 by Al Moran and Aaron Bondaroff, OHWOW is a gallery, publisher, and special project – a creative community – with gallery and retail locations in New York City, Los Angeles, and Miami. Through collaborations with various creative sectors, OHWOW produces projects and initiatives, extending its vision internationally. As a gallery, OHWOW organizes solo, collective, and group exhibitions, alongside presenting special projects and events conceived by outside curators. As a publisher, OHWOW fills a particular niche, providing books that blur the line between objects and treasures, from exhibition catalogs to specific artist pieces. IT AIN’T FAIR 2012

SEVEN, the pioneering collective project organized by the galleries BravinLee programs, Hales Gallery, Pierogi Gallery, Postmasters, P.P.O.W, Ronald Feldman Fine Arts and Winkleman Gallery will return to Miami for the third year, at a new exciting location, from December 4th through December 9th, 2012. With a focus on a collaborative, exhibition-like presentation commingling galleries and artists, SEVEN looks beyond the art fair model to create a new platform for viewing and acquiring works of art.
Inspired by the prevailing need for a more intimate, personal way to engage visitors during the Miami fair week, the members of SEVEN come together to create an environment where artworks may be experienced in a curated context and interested parties can have a substantial, quality interaction with the dealers. The emphasis on cooperation rather than competition relates to the founding days of these established, long-running galleries, which despite over 130 years of combined experience, remain true to the non-conformist, adventurous nature of their beginnings in the New York and London art worlds. SEVEN will be the only space in Miami featuring an integrated exhibition format that will include several video rooms and our acclaimed fifty feet long Salon Wall.
SEVEN’s new location, a 25,000 square foot warehouse at 2200 Northwest 2nd Ave at NW 22nd Street in the Wynwood district, situates the project in the epicenter of the most dynamic section of Wynwood, surrounded by local galleries, coffee houses, restaurants and creative businesses.
Entry to SEVEN is free, and the opening day will be on Tuesday, December 4, 1- 8pm with a reception starting at 6 pm. On Thursday, December 6, SEVEN will host a party beginning at 6pm with a performance by ZAZAZOZO (Melanie Bonajo and Joseph Marzolla) that will start at 9pm. The fair will be open from 11am to 7pm daily (Sunday to 5 pm), December 5 through 9. Updates and other information can be found at http://www.seven-miami.com and http://www.twitter.com/sevenmiami

A Look at Some of the Most Talented and Legendary Graffiti and Street artists of All Time
Nov. 30 2012 – Jan. 13 2012
The recently opened “1004 Gallery and Boutique†will be presenting the newest and most prestigious art show in the Americas, 50 Shades of Art on November 30th 2012 in Wynwood, Miami’s hottest and eclectic art design district. The exhibition will be showcasing works by the biggest pioneers and the hottest up and coming graffiti artists and street artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. The artists include: Cap, Cope2, Sero, T-Kid, Estria, Sen2, Teck, Secret 007, Rson, Indie184 and Lyne.
50 Shades of Art is an exhibition that sets the standards and raises the bar for graffiti, answers how graffiti itself has continued to thrive and evolve among the new and older generations of graffiti and street artists, and what it will now do to influence younger artists and the contemporary art market. 50 Shades of Art strives to present graffiti as a true form of art and in the process educates the viewer on the fundamentals of graffiti and street art and how and why it has integrated and influenced our modern culture. Furthermore, art critics and collectors alike will marvel at the shows extensive history of urban contemporary art and will witness the legends and the hottest artists behind the artworks.
Conveniently located in the heart of Wynwood, Miami’s most popular design art district, the 1004 Gallery and Boutique will showcase 50 Shades of Art during the dates of Art Basel, the most important art show in the United States. Art Basel welcomes international art collectors, art dealers, artists, curators and other art enthusiasts by the thousands during this extraordinary event where they will witness some of the highest-quality paintings, sculptures, drawings, installations, photographs, video and editioned works. Can you say “perfect timing�
Enrique “Sero†Cruz director, owner, curator and exhibiting artist of the 1004 Gallery & Boutique mission was to bring to life a show that will evoke the true essence of graffiti and to reveal to the masses all elements of graffiti and street art. An experienced and long-term graffiti artist, Sero has definitely made his mark in the art community and captured the attention of the mainstream population throughout his 30 year career. During his art profession, Sero has influenced the graffiti movement by pushing the envelope with countless styles and techniques he has created like the great masters before him. Today Sero has been dubbed as one of “THE LAST KINGS†who has come out of the golden era of the New York graffiti movement in the 1980’s and continues to transcend the test of time. He is currently affiliated with legendary iconic crews such as FBA, FC, IBM and SCW who are featured in the book Subway Art and famed documentary Style Wars. Sero has also been featured in the book The History of American Graffiti by Roger Gastman, famed director and also producer of legendary award winning documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop, featuring notorious street artists Banksy and Mr.
Brainwash. Sero has also been featured in the publication Miami Graffiti by James and Karla Murray.
Aside from his extraordinary accomplishments as a mainstream graffiti artist, Sero’s true mission is to educate the viewer of this exciting yet sacred form of art. According to Sero his ultimate goal is, “to enlighten those who do not understand this cultureâ€, and he has definitely fulfilled his ambition by putting together a show that will unquestionably achieve this.
As graffiti gains more recognition and exposure on a global scale, 50 Shades of Art is an exhibition that will answer why graffiti is a global phenomenon, will showcase some of the legends that helped to launch this very sacred underground yet unique art movement to epic proportions, and most importantly acknowledge why this free form art is and will continue to be extremely valuable among young and older art collectors.

Musicians, Surfers, Environmentalists and Friends collaborate on a Miami fundraiser to help power up the Rockaways, New York.
On Wednesday evening, November 28, 2012, a Hurricane Sandy benefit concert and documentary
screening will take place in Miami. Funds raised will help power up the communities of the Rockaways
in New York, a beachfront community that was hit by a 14 foot tidal surge that has left 23,000 residents
without power and in a critically damaged state.
Frustrated by the government’s turtle like response and worried about the approaching winter, musicians, surfers, environmentalists and friends in Miami are teaming up with Power Rockaways Resilience, a grassroots volunteer effort spearheaded by Walter Meyer and Jennifer Bolstad of Local Office Landscape Architecture, a husband-and-wife team working with planners, engineers and volunteers working to restore power to the residents of the Rockaways with solar powered generators.
Since electrical circuit boxes, wiring and heating systems have been inundated with salt water, solar generators can deliver power and heat to critical locations in the Rockaways, and can continue to supplement the grid with resilient power after the utilities power up again.
“The focus of this effort is not just about sustainability, but about resilience. We see the need on the ground in the Rockaways daily. The generosity of our friends in Miami will supply heat and power to alleviate suffering now, and will provide resiliency later.†Exclaimed Walter Meyer, whose fundraising efforts have already raised $13,482. He hopes friends in Miami will help double or even triple that amount.
The evening will feature :
Special screening of “Shadows of the Same Sun” Surf Documentary
Live Q&A with Walter Meyer of Local Office Landscape Architecture and Power Rockaway Resilience
Organized Live Acoustic Jam Featuring :
Brendan O’Hara

How Signs and other Comedies came to be:
“Can we truly judge a book by its cover? Depending on the Sign can you see a miracle? “Signs†and Other Comedies explore these questions and more,†states the playwright and director Wendy White. “Based on a premise that a picture can say a thousand words, the playwrights were given a prompt of the name of sign and asked to write an entire play based on the sign they chose – resulting in comedic one act plays and monologues reflecting the signs of our times in the most unexpected places.â€
The playwright and director, Wendy White has written over 125 one-act plays and was a resident playwright, curator and director at the Kraine Theater in the East Village of New York City from 1984 to 1992, and at the Expanded Arts Theater Company from 1994 to 2001, in the Lower East Side of New York City. Her off-Broadway productions are the base for her new venue at the New Light Theatre. She recently produced her one woman show; The Jewish Nun to sold-out audiences in Off-Broadway’s 59e59 Theatre and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Adam White, Gallery owner, Gallery 101 went to see “Who Could Have Predicted†in Miami in May 2011 at Wynwood’s GAB studio and decided to offer Wendy a permanent home in his Fort Lauderdale gallery surrounded by cafes, restaurants, boutiques and other galleries. “Wendy and New Light Theatre will be able to cast plays every month and have a solid home base from which to create. We are very excited to have her here; she is an immense talent that promises to get even bigger and better with this wonderful association†states Adam White, Gallery owner, Gallery 101(www.gallery-101.com).
Wendy White would like to thank the wonderfully talented playwright Vanessa Garcia, Artistic Director of Krane, Inc. for all her support in the process of developing Signs and Other Comedies – In 2010, Garcia, the Founding Artistic Director of Krane, Inc. was named one of Miami’s 20 Under 40 by The Miami Herald for her work in theatre. For more information about Garcia, please visit: www.vanessagarcia.org
The dream team includes the fabulous playwright, Elaine Alonso-Cruz who is joining us with her brand new comedy “Full Speed Ahead!”
In 2009, the New Light Foundation, Inc. represented the United States as Art Ambassadors by the 1-2-3 Kinderlachen e.V. foundation of Rottenburg, Germany by hosting the international “Global Gallery†project (www.123kinderlachen.org). During the course of this important project, the “world’s biggest canvas†emerged; painted by children – transcending all borders and conflicts.
The New Light Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit public foundation, has won numerous awards around the globe, has performed everywhere from Amsterdam to Paris; from Miami to Los Angeles to New York City; and has tackled subjects relating to women, love, politics, and Shakespeare. More information about the writer and director, Wendy White can be found on her website: www.newlightgallery.org. Please visit: http://www.newlightgallery.org/paintingswendy/theater-resume.html

Red is strong and confident. Red is exciting and sexy. Red is joy and celebration. Red is life. The exhibition, “Inspired by RED†is imbued with the cultural relevance of the color red. In some works it is used literally to represent things that are naturally red, in others it is used as a metaphor. However, it is the underlying emotional qualities of the color that dominates the exhibit.

MANO Fine Art Project Space is the working studio of Miami-based artist MANO and an exhibition and project space for art related events. MANO Fine Art participates in the Bird Road Art Walk, held on the third

About Griselda Lechini
Artist Bio
Griselda Lechini is a painter best known for her impressionistic landscapes. Her subject matter includes forests (and the roads within them), flowers, and musical instruments.
Her distinctive style is characterized by vivid colors that emit energy.
Argentinean by birth, Griselda Lechini has made the United States her home since 2000. Following a successful modeling and television career, she has breathed and lived painting full time since 2008.
Her works are held in private collections in Louisiana, Florida, New York and Argentina and exhibited locally in the Design District in Miami.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
The trees in my hometown and my father’s farm always talked to me about their strength and beauty.
From my childhood I have always known I would become an artist. The mountains of Argentina revealed to me power; ancient mystery and a permanence that has followed me through the years.
My travels took me around the world, and in each country I have done my best to take in the culture and the rhythm of the people. I pour what I have absorbed into my work. My fascination with nature has taken me to remote locations in search of myself and the answers to questions we all ask ourselves: who I am I and what am I hear on earth to do?
I create art because it allows me to express my feelings of joy and wonder at the universe. My purpose is to paint; to create and to share my love of the brush and creativity with the world. To communicate with people through color and emotion.
And I truly believe my art impacts us in a positive and hopeful way. Where there is always something beautiful around the corner or behind a tree, even, hidden in the bright colors. Where magic is always possible.

KCC Productions Presents Expressions Of Lou-Lou During Art Basel Week 12/8/12
KCC Productions Presents Expressions Of Lou-Lou During Art Basel Week
Saturday December 8, from 7-11 PM
Moonchine Asian Bistro Garden Lounge
7100 Biscayne Boulevard
MIMO District, Miami, FL
“Expressions of Lou-Lou,†an exhibit of paintings by Lou-Lou Davila-Hagopian, accompanied by the music of Grammy-nominated singer Thania Sanz, will take place during Art Basel week at Moonchine Asian Bistro.
Lou-Lou was born and brought up in Puerto Rico. “Music and art were a big part of my life to the point that I thought everyone did it; I took it for grantedâ€. Lou-Lou ended up going to college at SUNY Old Westbury. In New York she was able to continue her music and cultural Odyssey that her parents had started her on. â€in my family, education and culture are primary, so when I decided I wanted to paint I called my mom, and enrolled in school at the Art Student League; that was a great and amazing place. On New Year’s Eve 1999 I stayed in Puerto Rico and started school in UPR’s Escuela de Artes Plasticas recinto de el Viejo San Juan, another amazing incredible place. “
Loulouism-Loulouismo comes from just plain down-to-earth music and amazing musicians playing hard, not to mention her Afro-Puerto Rican roots. She can best be described as a frustrated musician who paints music. Her works were recently chosen to be exhibited at the Miami Beach Arts Gala, where one painting served as cover art for the invitation and program, at the Stage Door Theater for a Christmas fund-raiser, co-exhibited with Aleloop at MaiArt night in the Design District, and showed twice at Viernes Culturales on Calle Ocho.
Grammy nominee Thania Sanz graduated from one of the most prestigious schools for jazz and composition, the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Her love of performing original material with her guitar has led her to be known as one of the best live acts in Los Angeles and Miami. She has produced and recorded 4 CD’s, where you can hear her sophisticated approach, musical and lyrical, and her sensitivity in performing. Her songwriting, singing style, and musical vision can take us through beautiful journeys of passion for life, like the troubadours of the old days.

Donate and help us support this important cause! Limited amount of tickets available! Purchase Tickets Online
A fundraiser to benefit the Children’s Bereavement Center (CBC). Featuring a solo exhibition with original works by urban street artists SKI and 2ESAE of UR New York, and a chance to win a one-of-a-kind Driade Nemo Armchair and limited edition prints painted by the artists. You do not have to be present to win, but join us for a fun night that will kick-off the week of Art Basel where you can meet and greet the artists.
All proceeds go toward supporting the Children’s Bereavement Center, which offers free peer support for children, teens, young adults and caregivers who are grieving the death of a loved one. Ticket price of $150 includes admission for you and a guest, and a raffle ticket to win a painted Driade Nemo Armchair. With the purchase of five tickets, you are supporting one child through the CBC for an entire year, and you will receive one extra raffle ticket for free! And, all tickets are tax deductible.
Creating and enriching community partnerships through art and design, Anima Domus, South Florida’s premiere destination for contemporary Italian home furnishings, has partnered with street artist collaborative UR New York (Mike Baca aka 2ESAE and Fernando Romero aka SKI), Pop International Galleries in New York City, and Italian contemporary furniture company Driade to actively support and give back to their most admired local charity, the Children’s Bereavement Center, which offers free peer support for children, teens, young adults and caregivers who are grieving the death of a loved one.
Over the next two months, armed with a white swiveling Nemo Armchair by Fabio Novembre donated by Driade and Anima Domus, UR New York will paint the iconic face in their cutting-edge urban industrial style where it will be completed at a LIVE painting event at Pop International Galleries in New York City, on October 3rd.
“It’s an amazing cause and it hits close to home. We both come from unstable backgrounds and have had to mold our way to where we are now,†says SKI. “Any chance we get to give back through our work interests us. No one did that for us, so we’re trying to set an example for others — for the youth,†says 2ESAE.
Follow Anima Domus, UR New York, and Pop International Galleries on Facebook and Twitter to see the progression of the Nemo flourish from start to finish. Once completed, the newly painted and one-of-a-kind Nemo will be available for viewing in New York City at Pop International Galleries until October, when it will then be transported to Miami, to be displayed at Anima Domus’ Design District showroom to coincide with Miami Art Basel festivities.
On December 4th, Anima Domus will hold an exclusive event “Facing the Future: In Support of the Children’s Bereavement Center and Our Community†with catering by Egg & Dart. During the event a raffle will determine the lucky collector who will take home this unique work of art. All proceeds collected from the raffle will go toward furthering the mission of the Children’s Bereavement Center.
During the week of Art Basel and Design Miami December 5th – 9th in Miami, visit Anima Domus to see the artists of UR New York paint another original Nemo Armchair at a LIVE painting event alongside an exhibition of their artwork artwork in conjunction with Pop International Galleries.
“Doing good for our community, and giving back to a city that we all love so much, is one of the core values of our company as well as the core values of all who are participating in this worthy project,†says Marconi Naziazeni, owner of Anima Domus. “The Children’s Bereavement Center is a very active institution that provides vital support free of charge to many families in a moment of extreme need. They truly need our support. â€

Each December in Miami, NADA runs a renowned art fair to vigorously pursue our goals of exploring new or underexposed art that is not typical of the “art establishment.†NADA’s fair is held in parallel with Art Basel Miami Beach and is recognized as a much needed alternative assembly of the world’s youngest and strongest art galleries dealing with emerging Contemporary Art. It is the only major American art fair to be run by a non-profit organization.
Artadia is delighted to partner with NADA Miami Beach this December, where we will give an unrestricted $4,000 award to an artist exhibiting artwork at the fair in any booth. The selected artist will also join the Artadia family and receive all lifetime privileges of the Artadia awardees, including access to Artadia’s national network, the option to participate in Artadia programs, such as our New York Residency program, our publications and exhibitions program and professional services. The award is generously funded by Artadia founder and president Christopher E. Vroom and will be announced on Friday, December 7th.
A jury compromising of two internationally renowned curators will walk through the fair on its opening day, Thursday, December 6, to determine the award recipient. The names of the jurors will be announced on Friday, December 7.
LittleCollector is thrilled to partner with NADA to offer exclusive just-for-kids tours of NADA Miami Beach! Kids will join an art educator for a fun-filled tour of the fair where kids will get to talk with gallerist and artists while exploring the concepts of media, scale, color, texture, narrative, and technique. Kids will receive a LittleCollector backpack and activity guide, plus other fun giveaways and treats! Tours will last approximately 45 minutes and adult supervision will be provided so that parents can tour the fair.

Returning to Miami for its 7th year, Fountain Art Fair announces an extensive lineup of unique, alternative, exciting art projects and performance art events. With more than 35 exhibitors from around the world, the 2012 art fair will provide a visual display of installation heavy artworks, a spectacle for art enthusiasts to enjoy.
The group of exhibiting galleries and artists include: Broadway Gallery, Creamhotel, Gallery DEN, Davis Art Services, Solo(s) Project House, Kaboose Gallery, Republic Worldwide, EMP Gallery, Gallery 4, Rush Arts Gallery, Amanda Hudson, The Parlour Bushwick, Pete’s Fingers, Saturated Threads, iArt-4 Collective, Front Room Gallery, McCaig-Welles Gallery, Danni Rash, Lindsay Carron, Sue Zola, Asan Gallery, Working Method, Grace Exhibition Space, Sarah Trouche, Martha Raioli, McCaig-Welles, The Marketplace, Living Walls, Yes Gallery, Firma NYC, The Murder Lounge.
To celebrate Fountain Miami’s largest exhibition to date, we are thrilled to host Jpatt of the Knocks! The Knocks garnered notoriety for their singles “Dancing With The DJ†and “Brightside.†This summer, The Knocks opened for Dragonette on their American/Canadian tour as well as playing Jay-Z’s Made In America Festival, Firefly Music Festival, Electric Forrest, and Camp Bisco. Fountain also will feature Brooklyn’s hottest music sensation Tiki Disco at Saturday night’s Miami New Times Event. As described by Vice Magazine, “Tiki Disco isn’t a disco party or an event sponsored by some shitty brand of booze that you wouldn’t drink unless it was free. It’s a bunch of ragers dancing, and doing it without the forced-fun vibe that’s attached to many organized parties.â€
Fountain Art Fair Miami transforms a 25,000 square foot warehouse with concrete floors and 16 foot ceilings into an interactive space inspiring art enthusiasts. Fountain creates a dynamic environment that is far from traditional boundaries and old fashion art fair layouts, where visitors are not mere observers, but become part of the community and participate in the unforgettable experience that is Fountain.
Since it was founded in 2006, Fountain has built a following as a tool of leverage, a support system for smaller independent galleries, collectives and artists desiring access to a larger audience of collectors and critics. The project has received critical acclaim for its uniquely alternative art fair model and genuine dedication to the artists and galleries who both share in and help to shape its vision and ideology. To further support its exhibitors, Fountain is now producing Fountain Sessions, a series of videos by directors team Uta Levan that will continue throughout the year.
Fountain has grown to represent over 60 international avant garde galleries and projects, showcasing progressive primary-market works in New York, Miami, Chicago and Los Angeles; a destination where visitors are guaranteed to discover the best of what’s fresh, exciting and cutting edge in all areas of artistic expression. This event is well on its way to becoming the premiere next-generation art fair and has proved to be an incubator for art.

Arthritis Foundation Held Annual Walk At Amelia Earhart Park
(Miami, Florida) – The Arthritis Foundation held their annual Miami-Dade Arthritis Walk at the Amelia Earhart Park in early November. Hundreds gathered onsite to begin the customary walk that helps raise awareness to improve the lives of those suffering from arthritis or related diseases. Monies raised at the event are placed in programs that facilitate information and preventive care to those individuals prone to develop the disease, and to other care programs that are developed to provide assistance to those who have already been diagnosed.Â
Among the honorees was Henry “Turlte†Thomas, Community Honorary Chair. Thomas is the head coach of the FIU baseball team which was able to reach the NCAA Regionals two years in a row.  Coach Thomas very proudly accepted his title to increase community involvement at the Arthritis Walk.Â
Medical Honorary Chair, Jorge L.Orbay, M.D. is a board certified orthopedic surgeon specializing in hands and upper extremities. Dr. Orbay has developed implant systems that have significantly improved the lives of his patients, and continues to make a remarkable difference through his Miami Hand and Upper Extremity Institute which provides specialized care, treatment, surgery and rehabilitation to arthritis patients.Â
Kiyah Hall was the Child Honoree. Hall was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis at the age of six. Through the Arthritis Foundation, her family is optimistic that she will be able to lead a perfectly normal life.
Arthritis is the nation’s most common cause of disability with over 50 million men, women and children diagnosed. The Arthritis Foundation organizes the nationwide Arthritis walk every year in an effort to continue raising awareness and be able to fund its fight against arthritis.
The walk featured live entertainment, refreshments, food stations, healthy activities, educational opportunities and a kid’s area for face painting, a petting zoo and pony rides.Â
Members of the Coral Gables Woman’s Club (CGWC) showed their support alongside President, Mireya Kilmon, who for many years has been battling arthritis. CGWC was a bronze sponsor along with Dunkin Donuts, Interval International, Miami Party Entertainment, SeaFreight and Preferred Care Partners.
Saul & Theresa Esman Foundation was the Platinum sponsor, followed by Silver sponsors Goya, The Hand Institute, Kendall Pain Relief Center and Leon Medical Centers.
FIU also made an appearance with its students, alumni, sports teams and, one we could not have done without, Roary.Â

The Friendship Circle of Chabad of South Broward is preparing the 33rd Annual South Florida Chanukah Festival Featuring The 8th Day Band at Gulfstream Park & Casino
The 33rd Annual South Florida Chassidic Chanukah Festival is getting bigger and better. Considering that over 10,000 people have participated each year since the event was moved to Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach back in 2007, the staff and volunteers preparing the upcoming Festival set for Thursday, December 13th, have coordinated a star studded program that will guarantee the biggest attendance ever. The crowd will be even bigger than last year, as tens of thousands of tourists, in love with Jewish Music, are expected that week in South Florida.
8th Day Band will be the featured entertainment.
8th Day, which was co-founded by brothers Shmuel and Bentzi Marcus, is quickly becoming one of Jewish Music’s hottest acts. The group has released four studio albums that get air play regularly on the radio in New York and Israel.
They have played hundreds of shows across the globe, including in: Lincoln Center in New York, American Airlines Arena in Miami,Universal Studios Citywalk in Hollywood, Hong Kong, Toronto, Spain, Chicago and many more.
8th Day’s fresh and unique sound is complimented by their catchy lyrics(mostly English with some Hebrew and Yiddish mixed in) and their spirited vocal harmonies. Their mega YouTube hit “Ya’alili†was rated one of the top singles in Israel in 2011 and most watched Jewish Music Video in Israel, the US and Australia in 2011.
Their most recent release “All You Got”, was released in June of 2012, and has been critically acclaimed worldwide.
The Festival takes place in Hallandale Beach, at Gulfstream Park, US1 and Hallandale Beach Blvd.The event is annually produced and directed by Chabad of South Broward, leaders in Jewish Education, social services and community outreach.
Last year, the Chanukah Festival was seen live around the world via Jewish TV @ Chabad.org. It was the most watched Live Jewish TV Show in 2010 & 2011. People from across the globe, from the Ukraine to Israel, from South America to Australia, were fixed to their screens for the three hour Chanukah production that warmed so many hearts and inspired so many souls.
The Festival will honor the Friendship Circle, a program with 87 branches worldwide, that caters to children with special needs, who are teamed up with local teenagers. These teenagers serve as volunteers and friends of these children with special needs.

Havana Fusion Underground at PAX by Bob Quesada
The sound is flawless. The melody emanating from the twelve musicians known as: Charanga Tipica Tropical is as good as good will ever get. This is a cohesiveness which can only be achieved after nearly forty years of playing together. It is the fusion that we know as “salsaâ€, being played the way it was meant to be played; with violins, flute, piano, trombones, bass, and of course: percussion, plenty of percussion.
On the dance floor some of the best dancers anywhere are going all out. Now, this is not the watered down stuff that you see on some tv shows, nobody here is dancing for ratings, they are dancing for the sheer enjoyment of moving their bodies to the rhythm of the music, and the moves are simply amazing. The dance floor is big enough to accommodate pros and amateurs alike, everybody has a smile on their face.
“Havana Fusion Underground†is the brainchild of Rene Gueits, a salsa dancing master himself and owner of “Salsa Loversâ€, Miami’s premier salsa dancing school (98,000 students so far…and counting). Gueits has brought together the band, cigar rollers, a dance art exhibit, a dance showcase by the salsa lovers student team and even a latin food truck to make this an unforgettable event in what could easily be described as the most eclectic place to party.
We are at the Performing Arts Exchange or “PAXâ€, a venue preferred by some of the best known international artists such as Ricardo Arjona, Chino y Nacho and Gaby Moreno just to name a few. There’s reason for these artists to want to perform here. Roxanne Scalia, one of the founders explains it this way: “PAX is about finding the authenticity in art…everything we book at PAX is very scrutinized…we are an independent performing arts center…we focus on latin and world music …we have over 740 yards of acoustic sound†she adds: “My whole intention of opening this place is I want every customer to walk out with something more… when you give good art, you walk out that much smarterâ€.

David Lynch Presents Silencio Pop-Up in FDR at Delano during Miami Art Week 12/4/12-12/8/12
David Lynch Presents Silencio Pop-Up in FDR at Delano during Miami Art Week
Tuesday, December 4 through Saturday, December 8
FDR at Delano
1685 Collins Avenue
Miami Beach, FL 33139
The FDR nightclub at Delano will be transformed into a salon-type atmosphere similar to the original location with a similar style of lighting and cocktails, featuring music, film, art, and fashion. This will be Members-Only, like at the Paris edition.
Surrealist visionary David Lynch is joining in on the Miami Art Week festivities this year with his very own pop-up club. The renowned filmmaker will transform the FDR nightclub at Delano from a chic lounge to a twisted artsy wonderland, with Lynch at the hands-on helm of the eccentric makeover.
Opening at 11 pm each evening, patrons can dip into artistic decadence from the Warhol era and beyond in a haven at which art enthusiasts can mingle, thrive and ogle. Silencio will stimulate both the mind and the senses with its attention to detail under Lynch’s eye as a meeting place for all things art, fashion, music, mixology and nightlife.

The Garage
1661 Pennsylvania Ave
Miami Beach, FL 33139
Friends, it gives us great pleasure to present to you our next musical Offering….Bondax
Originally from Lancaster, UK – this teenage duo build beats that lurk somewhere between hazy ambient dreamscapes, bouncy house and garage. Their Soundcloud is a sign of things to come with songs ‘Baby I Got That’ and ‘Just Us’ receiving multiple reloads from their thousands of followers. As well as an ever increasing tour schedule. Not to mention their record label Just Us supported by the likes of Annie Mac and Star Slinger…Here’s what they have to say about their hype: “Right now we are just concentrating in the studio to try and make the most interesting music we can. We’re excited about traveling the world and making an album next year. Our longer term goals aren’t really on our mind right now as things seem to be moving really fast and I think we just need to enjoy the journey”
We, not being as eloquent, will let their music speak for itself and any DJ or music lover worth their salt can attest..
As if they weren’t enough, we’ve enlisted Body High label boss Samo Sound Boy himself to set the mood for these two youngsters for what promises to be a night of highly contemporary art and music.
Advance tickets on sale this week.

“Craters” rises from the thought that as people move away from their natural environments, so does their understanding of life. In pursuit of encouraging the viewer to reconsider their world, Zimmerer explores the Earth by re-imagining the American wilderness, unfamiliar lands and the ways in which humans might live if they were closer to their roots.
According to the artist, the world most of us face every day is distant from the world we would face without civilization. Our progression to industrialization and the age of computers has enabled man’s accomplishments to flourish. At the same time, while technology provides endless benefits to society, it also triggers a detachment from our roots.
Delving into the poetics of landscape portraiture, Zimmerer’s photographs take the viewer through a journey where the natural cohabits with the humane in almost strange ways, restarting the imaginative past and turning it into a present opportunity to let go, fantasize and reconsider about what we aren’t anymore.
At the end, “Craters” explores the notions of space, land and their direct relationship with our position in this ancient planet, and wonders if humans in nature are an antiquated manner or do we need that relationship more than we have thought?
“Craters” will be open to the public on Thursday, December 6th from 6:00 to 10 pm at 310 NW 24th. St. Miami, FL 33127 (Wynwood Art District). The second opening night will take place during “Art Walk” on Saturday, December 8th. The show will end on February 2nd, 2013.

Miami, Florida 33137-3511
Coinciding with the 11th edition of Art Basel Miami Beach this December, 101/exhibit in Miami will present Chambliss Giobbi’s solo project, entitled SE7N.
Excess, hatred and indifference are all sure descriptions, within Catholic dogmas and mythologies alike, of The Seven Deadly Sins. Visualizing these manifestations of inertia and obsession is made possible by New York – based artist Chambliss Giobbi.
SE7N is the culmination of 1000s of images photographed, shredded, torn, cut, reassembled, composed and affixed to large aluminum panels, 92 x 56 inches, and sealed within burnished layers of bees wax. Also included, a select collection of Giobbi’s personal portraits will also be featured throughout the entire gallery space.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a 44-page catalog with an essay by Walter Robinson. Mr. Robinson has written for numerous publications including contributing Editor at Art in America. He is the former Editor-in-Chief of Artnet Magazine.
Chambliss Giobbi was born in New York City in 1963. He earned his BFA in Classical Music Composition from Boston University in 1986 before shifting into the field of contemporary visual art. He was the past recipient of the New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship (1991) and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1996. Giobbi’s work has been featured in exhibitions in Barcelona, Bucharest, London, Detroit, New York and Miami. His work is held in the permanent collection of the Museo De Bellas Artes in Santander, Spain. Publications such as BOMB Magazine, SLEEK Magazine(Berlin), FlashArt (Online edition) andThe New York Timeshave included Giobbi and his work. Giobbi lives and works in New York City.
101/exhibit is a contemporary art program dedicated to presenting international emerging and established talent. Spanning multiple mediums, with a particular focus on figurative painting and drawing, the gallery engages its audience with a finely- tuned roster of artists in consistent and flourishing states of production in practice. 101/exhibit is unique in its twofold mission to promote the artist and to inspire the collector. Founded by Sloan Schaffer in 2008, the gallery is situated within the heart of Miami’s Design District with a second space in West Hollywood, California.

Paley, a Distinguished Professor, holds the Charlotte Fredericks Mowris Endowed Chair at the College of Imaging Arts and Sciences at the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, New York, and is the recipient of three Honorary Doctorates in Fine Art. Broadly published and an international lecturer, Paley received both his BFA and MFA from the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. Commissioned by both public and private corporations, he has completed more than 60 site-specific works. His work can be found in the permanent collections of over 30 museums, nationally and internationally, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Toledo Museum of Art, and the Victoria and Albert Museum and The British Museum, both in London. Several of his works are on display currently at the Frost Art Museum, including Clay Center Model, in the foyer of the Museum, and Portal, which is part of the American Sculpture in the Tropics exhibition outside the Museum in The Sculpture Park.
In addition to American Sculpture in the Tropics, Breakfast in the Park guests are invited to view the Museum’s other current exhibitions:

New This Year! Scope Expands to include Modern Masters
Grounding its established focus on post-war contemporary masters and the newest contemporary editions, the Fair now includes dealers specializing in modern works on paper. To represent this area, the Fair has added Leslie Sacks Fine Art (Los Angeles) and Susan Teller Gallery (New York). Sacks will offer works by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Marc Chagall in addition to post-war works by David Hockney, Richard Diebenkorn, and Ed Ruscha. Susan Teller will present a focused exhibition of mid-twentieth century American printmakers entitled Peggy Bacon & Her Circle featuring works by Bacon, Isabel Bishop, Minna Citron, Wanda Gág, Reginald Marsh, Anne Ryan and Marguerite Zorach. Also presenting American mid-century modern prints is Dolan Maxwell (Philadelphia), with works by Judith Rothschild, Benton Spruance, and Dox Thrash. Marlborough Graphics (New York) will also feature excellent examples from its vast holdings in European modern masters in addition to Francis Bacon, Chakaia Booker, Richard Estes, and Manolo Valdes.
Post-war Contemporary Masters
Aaron Galleries (Chicago), another new exhibitor, will augment the Fair’s strength in contemporary masterworks with works by Willem deKooning, Wayne Thiebaud, and Kenneth Noland. Singular works by Gerhard Richter, Sol Lewitt, and Robert Rauschenberg will be on offer at Dranoff Fine Art (New York) and Carl Solway Gallery (Cincinnati) will show multiples, trial proofs, and unique works by John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Ann Hamilton, and Frank Stella.
Late twentieth century contemporary
A series of photographic portraits from the late 1990s by Chicago-born and New York-based artist Rashid Johnson will be a highlight at Aaron Galleries. The artist’s major solo exhibition, “Message to Our Folks†was on view at the Miami Art Museum this fall. Dolan/Maxwell will showcase prints and works on paper by Steven Ford, Ryan Parker, and Cheryl Warrick. The Verne Collection (Cleveland), with its special emphasis on rarely-seen contemporary Japanese artists and American artists working in Japan, will exhibit works by Daniel Kelly and Hiroshi Yoshida.
New Editions by Contemporary and emerging Artists
Another new exhibitor, Childs Gallery (Boston), will highlight new works by emerging and mid-career contemporary Cuban artists fresh from this year’s Havana Biennial. These artists are noteworthy for their commitment to using traditional printmaking as their preferred medium for exploring socio-political issues.
The Fair’s contemporary editions publishers will offer collectors the opportunity to acquire fresh new projects before they are scooped up by major galleries. These include works by Sean Scully, Suzanne Caporael, and Cameron Johnson at Tandem Press. Florida’s own Graphicstudio/U.S.F. will present print and sculptural editions by Christian Marclay, Alex Katz, E.V. Day, and Carlos Garaicoa. MixografÃa® (Los Angeles) will present a one-man show of six new editions by John Baldessari. New editions by Martin Puryear, Isca Greenfield-Sanders, and Gary Simmons will come from the Berkeley-based print workshop, Paulson Bott Press. Stoney Road Press (Dublin) widens the Fair’s roster of contemporary artists with new editions by Irish artists Brian O’doherty, Dorothy Cross, and William Crozier.

Miami Gardens’ 8th annual two-day Jazz in the Gardens music festival at Sun Life Stadium is proud to announce as the festival host, nationally syndicated radio personality, Michael Baisden.
Michael Baisden is undeniably one of the most influential and engaging personalities in radio history. His meteoric rise to No. 1 is redefining radio with the numbers to back it up. The show is nationally syndicated and is heard in over 78 markets nationwide with over eight million loyal listeners daily.

My goal is to make this the most successful Jazz in the Gardens Festival ever!
Jazz in the Gardens success is attributed to the list of legends that grace the stage each year along with its incredible food, affordable tickets and Miami Gardens’ amazing March weather. For the past seven years, the festival has enjoyed unprecedented growth and has consistently delivered increases in attendance. Nearly 50,000 music lovers from the Caribbean, United States and all over Florida attended the 2012 festival. Tickets to the 2013 festival go on sale November 15, 2012, 10:00 a.m. at www.jazzinthegardens.com, the Sun Life Stadium Box Office, www.ticketmaster.com and at Ticketmaster locations.

Guests will receive a first view of mega-scale artworks to be presented in the solo exhibition during Miami Art Week and enjoy musical entertainment, light fare and refreshments.
Following a challenging upbringing and journey leading to establishing her studio in Venice, California, Ashley Collins has broken ground creating mega–scale, contemporary and layered paintings of horses. Collins’ technique incorporates collage with pages from the 1800s to mid-1900s, obscured historical images and book covers, among other unique layers. Her goal to create lasting works of passion, depth and hope has established her position as one of the most highly valued female contemporary artists of our time.
Collins’ 900 plus work history is included in many of the most important art collections in the world. Today, Collins is among an elite group of valued contemporary artists, as her artworks are iconic in the lexicon of American art.

Bass Museum of Art Presents The Endless Renaissance Six Solo Artist Projects
Bass Museum of Art Presents: The Endless Renaissance – Six Solo Artist Projects
Thursday, December 6 through Monday, December 10, 2012, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
VIP reception on December 5, 2012 9pm-12am.
Bass Museum of Art
2100 Collins Ave
Miami Beach, FL 33139
The Endless Renaissance – Six Solo Artist Projects: Eija-Liisa Ahtila, Barry X Ball, Walead Beshty, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Ged Quinn and Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook will be on view during Art Basel Miami Beach 2012.
The exhibition runs through March 17, 2013.
This December, the Bass Museum of Art shifts away from the curated group show to make room for six individual solo artist projects. On December 5, the Bass Museum of Art presents six international contemporary artists: Eija-Liisa Ahtila (Finland), Barry X Ball (USA), Walead Beshty (UK), Hans-Peter Feldmann (Germany), Ged Quinn (UK) and Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook (Thailand). In 2009, The Bass Museum of Art embarked on an ongoing exploration of the notion that all art was once contemporary and inversely, that all contemporary works of art are part of a continuum of art history. This ongoing project and these six artists presentations pay homage to the Bass Museum of Art’s mission statement, “we educate and inspire by exploring the connections between our historical collection and contemporary art.â€
Eija-Liisa Ahtila is a video artist and photographer. She will present a three-screen video projection, The Annunciation, though the Gospel of Luke (1:26–38) provides the narrative and Renaissance painting the iconography, Ahtila interprets the Annunciation with moving images that are at once spiritedly reverential, contemporary, and humane. Through her choice of actors—some of whom are professional and most (a group women from a center for social services) of whom are not—Ahtila questions the nature of performance and the notion of linearity, and presents the “story” of The Annunciation in strikingly original ways. In two versions: one image in a single frame (38 min.), followed by three images (split screen) in a single frame (33 min.). Courtesy Crystal Eye, Finland. In Finnish; English subtitles. 71 min.. Ahtila lives and works in Helsinki, Finland.
Barry X Ball, through the use of unconventional materials and innovative methods, has reinvigorated the age-old tradition of figurative stone sculpture. Ball employs an elaborate array of equipment and procedures to realize his works, ranging from the cutting edge to the traditional, from 3-D digital scanning, virtual modeling, and computer-controlled milling to hyper-detailed hand carving and polishing. The sculptures’ complexity is echoed in their clinically poetic titles. With their simultaneous fever-pitch intensity and surreal stillness, Barry X Ball’s bravura works make an expansive case for the reconsideration of contemporary sculptural practice. Ball lives and works in New York, New York.
Walead Beshty will feature a selection of glass and copper works that demonstrate an awareness of their own histories. Fitting perfectly inside proprietary sizes of FedEx boxes, these glass sculptures travel through the company’s massive infrastructure from venue to venue, becoming severely chipped and cracked. Likewise, Beshty’s large copper panels are handled directly by manufacturers, shippers and art handlers, resulting in smudges, hand-prints and tarnishes. Beshty’s work exposes the marks of time and physical signs of usage that take place in the process of production, shipping and installation of works of art. Just as an Old Master painting holds a provenance, a history of ownership and display, Beshty’s use of fragile materials like copper and glass aid in the disclosure of each object’s “provenanceâ€, and the evidence of their handling. Beshty lives and works in Los Angeles, California.
Hans-Peter Feldmann’s approach to art-making is one of collecting, ordering and re-presenting amateur snapshots, print photographic reproductions, toys and trivial works of art. This project is Hans-Peter Fedlmann’s first solo museum exhibition in the U.S. Feldmann reproduces and recontextualizes our reading of them in books, postcards, posters and multiples. Feldmann lives and works in Dusseldorf, Germany.
Ged Quinn specializes in allegorical paintings that include contemporary images in idyllic scenes based on classical paintings such as the pastoral works of Claude Lorrain and Caspar David Friedrich. The Endless Renaissance Quinn will present densely layered paintings that transform art historical genre painting into contemporary experience. Quinn lives and works in Cornwall, United Kingdom.
Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook is universally recognized as one of the leading video artists from Southeast Asia who was recently featured in dOCUMENTA (13). She will present works from her Two Planets series, in which members of Thai villages discuss several classic works of modern European painting while Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook fixes her camera on them. Contemplated outside of a museum in this atypical context, the work explores the conventions of viewing and interpretation that have come to be central features of the Western experience of art. Rasdjarmrearnsook lives and works in Thailand.

November 30, 2012- January 26, 2013
Galleria Ca D’oro is pleased to present Foreverglades an environmentally minded public art exhibition by International Artists William Sweetlove and artists collective, Cracking Art Group. Presented in partnership with Miami Dade’s College Museum of Art + Design and famed Swiss watchmaker Girard-Perregaux, Foreverglades will open with a public reception. The exhibition will run through Saturday, January 26th, 2013.
Foreverglades, an interior and exterior installation in the public realm, establishes a locally conscious perspective focusing on environmental protection, sustainability, and advocacy of South Florida’s National Parks and Preserves. An exhibition unlike anything else of its kind, Foreverglades will encompass a presentation of 300 animals made out of recyclable plastic, resin, and aluminum, native of South Florida, including three specific regional species: native alligators, sea turtles, and frogs literally crawling up, down and around Miami Dade College’s nationally historic building – a feat never before attempted on the famed structure. For the European-based artists, William Sweetlove and Cracking Art Group, the animals were researched and selected for the important role each play in the development and history of our local landscape.
Accompanying the exhibition, the museum in partnership with the MDC Earth Ethics Institute, US National Parks Conservation Association, Everglades National Park, Biscayne National Park, Dry Tortugas National Park and Big Cypress Preserve will present: Foreverglades: here today, hopeful for tomorrow, a one-day educational symposium on Friday, November 30th at the MDC Freedom Tower. The one-day event will feature panel discussions, exhibitions, and performances focusing on the education of advocacy for our fragile South Florida landscape and how artists seek unique ways to present the message. The future may be unknown for the Florida Everglades, but Foreverglades is a true testament to how artists use art to create public awareness for the world we compromise in hopes it will exist forever.
Additional support for Foreverglades is provided by the Consulate General of Italy, Consulate General of Belgium, Consulate General of France, Gulliver Preparatory School and the Biscayne Nature Center. The official opening event for “2013, Year of Italian Culture in the US,†will also take place during the opening of FOReverglades with the patronage of the Consulate General of Italy in Miami and the European Ministry of the Environment.
“Italy is well known for its cuisine, fashion, and design. With this initiative we aim to demonstrate that Italy also has talent in the field of contemporary art. Italians can export brilliant artists and create prestigious events for the world to enjoy. The ecological messages of our artists are well developed in Italy and we are delighted to collaborate with the national parks here in Miami to further their important work in preserving our environmentâ€, declares Gloria Porcella, Italian curator of the Miami Installation.
“The importance of preserving our environment is beautifully represented in Forevergladesâ€, says Michele Sofisti, CEO of Sowind (Girard-Perregaux and jeanrichard). “We hope that together we are able to spread the message further and increase public awareness of this issueâ€.

Mohogany is a multi-layered performance project adapted from the written works of 1930’s German playwright/poet: Bertolt Brect and features original music by composer: Kurt Waill. This complex and mesmerizing presentation has been adapted for Miami audiences and is the brainchild of director/producer: Jose’Manuel Dominguez in collaboration with emerging artist/musician: Rayko Redwolf.
Originally entitled: (The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny), about a fictitious city founded by immigrants in an unknown place in Florida, also named Mahagonny. The town of Mahagonny is a place founded as a result of forced migration that becomes a decadent attraction for many immigrants. The work talks about the dreams of generations of immigrants, the process of adaptation, corruption, and the economic crisis among other things. The story is centered on a main character, Jimmy, and his struggles as a musician trying to succeed.
While Mahagonny is a fictionalized city, there are many parallels to life in Miami: The radically different lives of the very rich and very poor, the life of immigrants, everyone’s pursuit of the American dream, and meteorological and psychological phenomena of hurricanes, which, in this city, like in Miami, they are a seasonal dramatic issue.
Mahagonny will be a full-length performance that uses the atmosphere of cabaret. The particular performative universe of this work will be created by using dancers, actors and musicians, all working collaboratively. There are many elements of physical theater and all of the performers move and dance; some of the actors will have interventions as musicians; and some of the musicians will be actors.
Mahagonny will appeal to all kinds of adult audiences, especially in terms of age, ethnicity and linguistic diversity. The piece will be performed in Spanish with supertitles in English. The project is design within a fully accessible concept. Audiences interested in the professional development and expression of persons with disabilities will be especially interested in this work.
We invite you to come out to a performance of MAHOGANY and have your soul stirred by an amazing ensemble cast including: Ivette Kellems, Carlos Ortiz, Jose Salinas, Luis Nalerio, Yesenia Nieblas, Fernando Goicochea, Gabriel Ochoa, Bernardo Bernal, Sebastián Ochoa, and Sergio Mora. Rayko Redwolf (music director and performer), José Brown, Hans Hernandez, Set and Costume Designer: Susy Raffo, all under the direction of Artistic director: José Manuel DomÃnguez, Assistant director: Maria A. Franco and Executive producer: Alex Negron.
Antiheroes Project, Inc. is a non profit organization which fosters inclusion in South Florida, produces and presents artistic projects with enphasys in the collaboration between artists with and withouth disabilities. The organization, founded in 2011, believes that artistic venues are ideal places for convergence of different audiences.

Alcazaba Pre Thanksgiving Party by Bob Quesada
They are dancing everywhere, in the hotel lobby, in the courtyard, in the restaurant bar, in the halls and of course on the dance floor which is “cheek to cheek†room only. The party, which is known as “The Alcazaba Pre-Thanksgiving Reunion†packs about two thousand people in the Hyatt Regency Coral Gables Hotel on the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving.
The crowd is enjoying disco, freestyle and latin music, DJ Alex Gutierrez is in control, every flawlessly matched mix brings a roar of approval from the forty to fifty something crowd which has waited a whole year for this. With the number of year round clubs that litter the landscape, one wonders: Why wait? Why this place?. As Gutierrez puts it: “…they get the sound of Miami here…Alcazaba has never changed…these people met the people they married here…they divorced because they would escape here on happy hour…this is built into the fabric of their life…â€
Alcazaba opened in 1988 it stayed open for twenty one years. That longevity is almost unheard of for a club. The biggest night of the year for the club was always the night before Thanksgiving.
After closing in 2009 a funny thing happened… the patrons refused to let go. Slowly… via word of mouth and of course… social media, they demanded to have a party just like they had had every year for the past twenty one years, on the Wednesday night… before Thanksgiving. Hotel management complied and the rest, as they say, is history.
The party has now become a tradition, “This is the Cuban St. Patrick’s†says Gutierrez laughing, and to judge by the heavy hitters he’s got on the dj roster: Frank Banderas, Kiwi Mario and Mike in the Night, he is determined to make this the hottest spot south of Dublin. Even Billboard songwriter of the year Lewis Martinee drops by and mixes a couple of tunes to the crowd’s delight.
As the night progresses, Mike in the Night’s unique voice announces: “Ladies and gentlemen…we are going to be doing this once a monthâ€â€¦the crowd goes wild…the wait’s been reduced…from 364 to 29 days…

Matching Set: Last year Pocket of Lollipops duo Maite and Tony brought you the mind-expanding Cashmere Kitty. This year, they are joining forces with Verge Art Fair for their opening night Art Party to produce Matching Set, an unruffled line up of musical acts Datamouth, Cog Nomen, Pocket of Lollipops and DJ Jiriki.
Posh Punk Duo Maitejosune Urrechaga & Tony Kapel from Pocket of Lollipops bring to you another combination of their artshmaltz. These two have been know for their installations and music performances together. Individually Maite is a visual artist and Tony is a writer. When these two forces combine they marry iconic tones. Past events have included: “Cashmere Kitties,” “Snowcone in the Stairs,” “It’s Okay to Cross now,” and “The Halls Ways.” These events have ranged from Live Paper Ball Fights, feeding the audience lollipops, and creating and coloring masks to chase snails. For this special performance, Maite describes her goal as helping the audience to “imagine drizzles steel pressing themselves into your being.”
Datamouth is the moniker of Chris Salazar, an artist and musician originally from Santiago, Chile who currently lives in Miami, FL. Salazar’s musical background is diverse: guitarist in the influential South Florida punk band Milkshed in the 1990’s and early 2000’s; guitarist in the instrumental rock band Vidavox (described as an amalgam of jazz, progressive rock, jam band, & math rock) in the early-mid 2000’s; and performer/collaborator in various other musical projects. Additionally, video game soundtracks and Freestyle music were among the earliest electronic influences on Salazar. His approach to electronic music is atypical in that his tracks often evolve from melodies written on guitar. Although Salazar is a senior art director professionally, outside of work, he continues to work in art by constantly drawing, designing, photographing + film-making, and creating music.
Cog Nomen is made up of Guitarist, Buffalo Brown and drummer, Brave Ulysses, both of whom have been staples in the Miami live music scene for a better part of the last decade. Cog Nomen’s music is part electro-pop with an good dose of psychedelic ambient rock-scapes (Imagine Pink Floyd jamming with Daft Punk at Brian Eno’s house). Each of their songs constructs a familiar place with spry rhythms, lush textures and engaging hooks without the safety net of plug-ins or pre-recorded sequences favored by laptop musicians. Their debut album Even The Odd was recorded live during the summer of 2011 while facing each other in the recording studio. Recently they have been at it again with their unique twist of psychedelic and pop music- releasing their second album titled “The End Of Knowing (As We Know It)” in CD and MP3 format on August 1st. The Cog Nomen sound is so raw yet refined that its instantly familiar while exuberantly fresh and unpredictab
JIRIKI JiRiKi is an Atlanta based artist who grew up playing in different psychadelic jam bands, then enrolled into the electronic music production program at SAE institute in Miami which paved the way to her first EDM project as JiRiKi, which started in July of 2011. Sets and production include a fusion of Dubstep, Drumstep, Drum and Bass, Electro, Trip Hop, and Glitch.

ARTECHO is an event organized by TECHO, a youth led non-profit organization that seeks to overcome poverty across Latin America, through the joint work of volunteers and families living in slums. ARTECHO is a social initiative set during Art Basel, that aims to raise awareness of the realities of poverty through Latin America. Each year, TECHO invites a select group of renowned artists from around the world to participate by having them intervene small-scale replicas (16†x 8â€) of the houses that are build by TECHO throughout Latin America. The artwork is then exhibited and auctioned at ARTECHO, in an effort to raise awareness and funds for the millions of people living in extreme poverty conditions. Last year’s event raised USD227,000.00, enough to build 127 transitional houses.
Artists: Adriana Salazar, Pablo Tamayo, Jesse Florez, Glexis Novoa, Rogelio Polesello, Ana Alenso, Emilia Azcarate, Edwin Monsalve, Craig Kucia, Patrick Hamilton, Josefina Guilisasti, Guillermo Kuitca, Matias Duville, Pedro Tyler, Glenda León, Suwon Lee, Ernesto Neto, Amalia Pica
Solita Mishaan, Mariela Cisneros, Alberto Chehebar, Eduardo Padrón, Rosa de la Cruz, and Andres Oppenheimer are amongst this year’s Host Committee. ARTECHO counts on the support of main sponsors, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation; Santander Private Banking, and Drew Estate as supporting sponsors; Univision is the exclusive media partner for the event; and Diego Costa Peuser (Arte al DÃa/PINTA Art Show), art director for the event.
Exhibits from world-renowned artists including: Guillermo Kuitca, Pablo Tamayo, Ernesto Neto, Suwon Lee, Glenda León, Glexis Novoa, Ana Alenso, Patrick Hamilton, Rogelio Polesello, Amalia Pica, Pedro Tyler, Josefina Guilisasti, Matias Duville, Jesse Florez, Edwin Monsalve, Adriana Salazar, Emilia Azcarate, Nicolas Lobo, Craig Kucia, and a live art intervention of a full scale house (194 sq. ft.) by Peruvian artist Fabian de la Flor.
Nearly 173 million people live in conditions of extreme poverty in Latin America. Through the joint work of families living in extreme poverty with youth volunteers, TECHO seeks to overcome poverty in slums. TECHO is convinced that poverty can be permanently eradicated if society as a whole recognizes poverty as a priority and actively works towards overcoming it.

TheUrbanCollective exhilarates Art Basel with dynamic Art Africa Miami Arts Fair experience featuring the most critically acclaimed contemporary artwork from the Global African Diaspora Fair to serve as cultural epicenter of Art Basel 2012 with grand lineup of events.
TheUrbanCollective and the City of Miami, SEOPW CRA gear up to present a top-notch line-up of the most exquisite contemporary artwork from Africa and its Diaspora during 2nd annual Art Africa Miami Arts Fair. With a pavilion themed around the art and culture of the African Diaspora and housed in a grand 8,000 square foot exhibition tent adjacent to the Lyric Theatre at 919 NW 2nd Ave. Miami, FL , the Miami Arts Fair will fare like no other Art Basel event. The Art Africa Miami Arts Fair is the first comprehensive fair to debut within Art Basel in some time and the first of its kind to feature the art of the African Diaspora exclusively.
This year’s exhibition will host over 50 contemporary artists from the Global African Diaspora in a tent/container hybrid model pavilion, which is sure to draw the curiosity of art enthusiasts, collectors, and aesthetes alike. Fair goers and exhibitors will have the opportunity to experience an unparalleled body of work selected by a jury of art professionals whose contributions to the art world are extensive and of critical importance to both seasoned and emerging artists alike.
Art Africa Miami is set to serve as the cultural arts epicenter of Art Basel; as the fair celebrates everything from Jamaica’s 50th anniversary featuring a special exhibition from artists of the Caribbean including Jamaica, Trinidad, Haiti and Barbados, to the musical honoring of the great Mambo King, Cachao, to the highlighted works of the Global African Diaspora’s best contemporary visual artists. Panel discussions on the state of contemporary visual arts in the Global African Diaspora will round out the exhibition, stimulating the dialogue of exhibitors beyond the point of awe and observation.
“South Florida temporarily transforms into an art Mecca during Art Basel and we wanted to give people the opportunity to learn and experience the unique culture of our local Diaspora artistsâ€, states Commissioner Michelle Spence-Jones.
“Art and Sustainable Design are powerful agents for positive transformation in our communities. We see the change happening throughout South Florida. TheUrbanCollective and Art Africa Miami plan to be a part of that transformative narrative for years to comeâ€, states Neil Hall, Owner of TheUrbanCollective.

Miami Ave in 2004 and continues to support the work of these artisans through our partnership and collaboration with a number of non-profit organizations including Global Partners for Development, Aid to Artisans, League of Artisans and NEST, which is dedicated to changing the lives of women artisans by giving them small loans to build and maintain art or craft-based businesses.

Daniel Johnston in Miami During Art Basel Week at Grand Central 12/7/12
Daniel Johnston in Miami During Art Basel Week 
Friday, December 7, 2012, 9pm
Grand Central – Miami
697 N Miami Ave.
Miami, FL, 33136
During this year Miami Art fairs Week, with, drawings at Wynwood walls and a concert + solo Art show @ Grand Central, long-time cult icon Daniel Johnston will entered the become a part of the Miami art movement. For anyone who had the slightest familiarity with his life and his work, the first question this Miami début will provoke is not ‘What does this say about the art world?’ but ‘What does this mean for Daniel?’ Because of the many complicated feelings Johnston tends to inspire, concern is usually high on the list.
Johnston is severely mentally ill. Diagnosed as bipolar, frequently delusional, occasionally violent (he attacked his former manager with a lead pipe and once brought down his father’s small plane, shutting off the engine mid-flight and throwing the keys out the window), he’s spent his adult life in and out of institutions. He has managed to sustain himself through the care of friends and family, and through an absolute belief in his artistic calling. These days, physically wrecked by years of medication, tons of acid dropped in the 1980s and a lifelong diet of hamburgers, Coke and cigarettes, he’s a hulking middle-aged child–man living in small-town Texas in the care of his elderly, fundamentalist Christian parents.
But all of this is old news to anyone who’s followed his career as a remarkably successful musical outsider (or to anyone who’s seen The Devil and Daniel Johnston, Jeff Feuerzeig’s 2005 documentary on his life). Johnston has been on hipster radar since the 1980s, when his DIY cassettes began making their way into the world. Singing in a shaky, plaintive warble, accompanying himself on rudimentary chord organ and guitar, he’s recorded scores of naive and witty songs about superheroes, about the battle between good and evil, about lost love, loneliness and madness – all weird and funny and intimate and tremendously catchy. And he has always drawn and painted as well, chronicling in twisted, cartoonish fashion his various obsessions and the characters that populate his interior world: Captain America, Casper the Friendly Ghost, Satan, a stalk-eyed frog named Jeremiah and a hollow-headed doppelgänger called Joe the Boxer.
And 33 of his pieces with all of them will be here in Miami, rendered in pen, water colors and marker on notebook paper, curated by Pablo Gehr; with a preview in Wynwood walls Dec 6 and the main art show & concert at Grand Central Dec. 7 and 8th during art fair’s week; alongside the work of 10 local artists making an homage show to Johnston, who will also collaborate by adding his characters in the canvases of the locals. Local Artists include The Concert organized by local event mogul AramÃs Lorié will be the place to be and the one event to make a mark in the local art scene during this year’s Art Fairs week!

Miami, FL 33130
Featuring Site-Specific Installations, Sculpture, Painting, and Photography, New Work Miami 2013 Exhibition Celebrates the City’s Artists and Marks 12-Month Countdown to Miami Art Museum’s Move to New, World-Class Facility
New Work Miami 2013 Focus of MAM’s Art Basel Miami Beach Events On view from November 21, 2012 through May 12, 2013
In celebration of the tremendous creative energy of the local artist community, Miami Art Museum will present recent and newly commissioned work by approximately a dozen Miami-based artists in New Work Miami 2013. The exhibition will highlight the diverse and innovative practices of Miami’s artists, featuring site-specific installations, sculpture, painting and photography. The exhibition will be among the last presentations in MAM’s current facility, marking the 12-month countdown to the Museum’s reopening in fall 2013 as Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) in a new, Herzog & de Meuron-designed building in Museum Park.
New Work Miami 2013 will be the focus of MAM’s Miami Art Week activities, when Art Basel Miami Beach, Art Miami, Design Miami/ and other art fairs attract an estimated 50,000 members of the international art community to South Florida. The exhibition’s opening celebration will take place during Party on the Plaza, the Museum’s signature Art Basel Miami Beach event on Thursday, December 6, 2012 and will be on view during the MAM Ball, the Museum’s major annual fundraiser, on Saturday, December 8, 2012.
Two artists, Consuelo Castañeda and Emmett Moore, have been invited to create an immersive environment within MAM’s plaza-level gallery that responds formally and conceptually to works by each of the other participants. This experimental approach aims to capture the collaborative spirit that infuses local artistic production, while envisioning a more active role for artists in shaping the conditions under which their work is seen and experienced. In keeping with the organizational method explored in the galleries, the museum has invited an artist run nomadic space known as SPRING BREAK to contribute to the development of the exhibition’s accompanying programs, which will include film screenings, discussions, workshops, site-specific projects and other time-based experiences.
“The work coming out of Miami’s flourishing arts scene is fresh and ingenious. It challenges us to develop new ways of engaging with the arts community and our many constituents,†said Miami Art Museum Director Thom Collins. “New Work Miami 2013 is a salute to the incredible growth in Miami’s cultural landscape and represents the Museum’s commitment to supporting the continued growth of the arts in our area. We are delighted to present this exhibition and, as we prepare to move to our new facility, look forward to creating new programming commensurate with Miami’s incredible artistic activity.â€
The New Work Miami series is indicative of the strong bond that has formed between the Museum and the city’s artists. It encapsulates MAM’s dedication to supporting the local artistic community, while signifying the vital role that the Museum will continue to play in nurturing the growth of the arts in Miami.
Among the featured artists are:
Gideon Barnett, who employs the language of traditional documentary photography to create quasi-anthropological, conceptual projects that examine Miami’s unique cultural landscape;
Bhakti Baxter, who presents a series of paintings drawn from images of masks and figurines from around the world; the work explores the ways in which visual conventions and cultural beliefs influence our collective understanding of human history.
Sinisa Kukec, who uses found furniture, resin, pigment, graphite and other materials to create sculptures that display jewel-like effects while teeming with oozing, organic surface textures;
Odalis Valdivieso, who employs experimental digital photographic techniques to subvert modernist painterly traditions; and
George Sánchez-Calderón and Tom Scicluna, who will create newly-commissioned outdoor works.
Co-organized by MAM Associate Curators René Morales and Diana Nawi, the exhibition explores ideas pertaining to the local built environment; the city of Miami as both a historical object and a psychological state; site-specificity and the nature of display within domestic versus museum contexts; and the dynamic relationship between artistic and curatorial practice.
“With this project, we have asked artists to intervene in the exhibition design and other functions that normally fall within the purview of museum staff, from programming to marketing," said Morales. "In part, this is meant as a nod to the collaborative, artist-driven initiatives that have become so ubiquitous in Miami, constituting one of the defining tendencies of the local art scene."
“As someone who is new to Miami, I’ve been incredibly impressed with the depth and diversity of artistic practice here,†said Nawi. “Organizing this exhibition has been an invaluable opportunity to explore the city’s rich and varied arts scene and to see how the unique context of Miami has shaped artists who live and work here.â€
New Work Miami 2013 is organized by Miami Art Museum and co-curated by MAM Associate Curators René Morales and Diana Nawi. Support is provided by Nedra & Mark Oren and Dorothy & Aaron Podhurst.

Guest Review by Sylvia Pilar: Franklin Sinanan, Painter, Mixed-Media, Sculpture and Furniture Artist
Franklin Sinanan, Painter, Mixed-Media, Sculpture & Furniture Artist; Art Center South Florida 810 Lincoln Road, Studio 205, Miami Beach, FL 33139 November Exhibition: “Art of the Macabre†by Sylvia Pilar
Talented artists come from around the world, to live work and create in the Miami area, and it is no wonder that a plethora of  galleries thrive throughout Miami stretching far beyond the Wynwood Art Distract and to the beaches. One of my favorite places to view and attend art openings is The South Florida Art Center on Lincoln Road: The art center houses eclectic artists, studios and art in all forms: from fine art, to decorative; from the subtle and serene, to the exotic and erotic … and then there is “Voodoo†art: the dark art; art of the afterlife; art of the spirit world, or, what I will refer to as the “Art of the Macabreâ€.
It is here at the Art Center where I had the pleasure of attending a recent opening featuring resident artists displ aying their art. It is here, where we meet Franklin Roosevelt Sinanan, a unique, avant-garde artist like no other. It is here where we can find what I call the ‘Art of the Macabreâ€. Yes, it is here that we find the beauty in the “Art of the Macabreâ€.
Sinanan’s tiny studio space is like a miniature museum of voodoo and spiritual mystery. His art abounds in its entire splendor. It is a feast for the eyes, filled with overwhelming images that quietly scream the secrets of another realm with an intensity that seduces the imagination.
Sinanan’s work is more than just the  expression of the voodoo/dark arts. It is an expansion of his inner soul and passion. It reeks of his vibrant energy beneath his quiet exterior. There is a flame that sparks light and life into the darkness with or without understanding that awakens the beauty of the mysterious world in the “Art of the Macabreâ€.
Many are overwhelmed, many are perplexed and others are in awe of the images of alters, demons, and intense emotions that provoke the soul to question, and interact with alternative perspectives. Regardless of whatever viewpoint one may have, there is no doubt that Sinanan is an authentic artist devoted to expressing his imagination through his art! During Art Basel Week, Sinanan will have a show at the “Art of Africa†in Overtown.
Brief Bio:
Born in Trinidad and raised in Canada, Franklin Sianan now lives in Miami Beach. Sinanan is self taught and his work has evolved and h as taken on a distinct Afro-Caribbean flair since moving to Miami. “In Canada,†he says, “my work never looked like this. It was just a lot of white faces.â€Â   He refers to himself as the outsider but feels comfortable his work despite the controversial art form. He says, “I’m Canadian … I don’t know anything about Santeria or Voodoo. “I was born in Trinidad, but I wasn’t brought up there, so all this is new for me. I don’t even know if they practice voodoo in Trinidad. Miami influenced me to create these pieces without really knowing what I was doing. I just see it as art. But people keep telling me its voodoo or black magic. But I just pulled this stuff out of my head. It’s all imagination.â€
Sinanan Summation:
“My work allows me to release my emotions and to draw the viewer into the push - pull of life, love - hate, violence - compassion, good - evil. Through my work I become transparent - almost naked. Where nudity only shows my exterior, my art reveals the total me, inside and out – the real me! I’m not a news junky, nor do I read any lofty novels, but I absorb the world around me and with a non-religious spirituality I regurgitate my emotions into the work. For me, religion and politics are difficult to talk about, but when I channel it into my work it seems to come alive and mean something. I paint about everyday stuff: abuse, relationships, anger…….. Often my work offends people. I’m always surprised when people think my work evil, because I do it out of love for life. “

Chef Todd Erickson & mixologist Isaac Grillo celebrate the Lincoln Road hotspot’s special Art Basel-inspired menu collaboration with a digital wall-art installation featuring Richard Prince’s Lemon Fizz and complimentary “The Fresh Prince†cocktails.
Lemon Fizz Menu (available 12/3-9/12):
“The Fresh Prince,†Absolut Citron vodka, simple syrup, fresh pressed ginger topped with Lemon Fizz sparkling soda
Lemon Fizz Liquid Nitro Ice Cream, AriZona Lemon Fizz Sorbet; candied ginger; pomegranate; fresh basil & splash of liquid nitrogen
Iced tea company AriZona will launch Lemon Fizz, a sparkling lemon soda designed with renowned American painter and photographer Richard Prince of Nurse painting fame, during the 11th edition of Art Basel Miami Beach, taking place Dec. 6-9, 2012.
“As huge fans of Richard Prince and his work, it was important for AriZona to create a beverage that embodied the mystery and intensity of Richard’s art, and Lemon Fizz acts as the perfect beverage to symbolize those feelings. The package design celebrates Richard’s creativity and history within the art world, with secret elements for consumers to discover that signify the union of our creative forces,†says Jackie Harrigan, Global Communications Director.
Prince, a controversial artist, famous for his use of appropriation art and his Jokes series, which alluded to the sexual fantasies and frustrations of middle-class America, joined forces with AriZona beverages on the project.  “My latest work has embodied the use of tangible items, such as cans, to create installations,†Prince says. “As a fan of AriZona’s Arnold Palmer line, it felt natural to collaborate and the partnership evolved from there. The outcome is Lemon Fizz, which is a fantastic beverage and one that I can employ in my own craft.â€
The beverage will be packaged in a Pop Art-inspired, 23-oz. can, featuring representations of his Nurse and Jokes paintings, as well as larger black-and-white shots of Prince, photographed by Sebastian Piras and Sante D’Orazio. The beverage, to be launched nationally following the art show, will retail from $0.99 to $1.25, in line with other AriZona products.

The studio of Enrique MartÃnez Celaya will be open for an informal brunch to unveil several monumental works he has created for his upcoming solo show at SITE Santa Fe. This is a rare opportunity to see several key elements of what will be an unprecedented museum-wide installation that MartÃnez Celaya is creating for SITE next summer. For these new works, which include two large-scale paintings, and two massive sculptures, the artist has relied on readings on the nature of memory and on his own biography to create a world that belongs to the imagination of children and which juxtaposes sadness and melancholia against fantasy.

The “Free Mind Society Art Seriesâ€, kicks off with the “Free Your Mind†Art Exhibition and Event during Art Basel Miami, with a digital art and button installation in memory of American Icons that fought for freedom, to be displayed during a 1 DAY showing at pop-up gallery.
Designer Amir Youssef, the creative mind behind Chop Shop Barbershop and ButtonRevolution.com, will have an array of buttons from the life and times, of the “Free Mind,†in addition to canvas pieces portraying Seven of America’s Free Minds, including; John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, John Lennon, Chief Black Kettle, Harvey Milk, and Malcolm X. These installations are to honor the valor and courage of men who passionately fought for freedom and pursuit of equality for all man and woman; a passion that ultimately caused their opposition and death by those of their country. This exhibition will be donating 100% of the proceeds of art purchased to the foundations of the featured Great American Heroes.
To celebrate the exhibit, the Alessandra Gold Concept Store in Miami’s Design District will transform completely into AG Studios, a pop-up art space and gallery, to showcase the Free Your Mind Art Exhibition. The interior of the store will house the exhibit while the exterior of the store will additionally be transformed into the theme of the exhibit and will outwardly showcase art. The Alessandra Gold Concept Store, established in 2011, by owner, Alessandra Gold, regularly collaborates and curates known and emerging designers from all over the world; regularly attracting guests from the arts, fashion, vibrant and creative industries, a place where you could very well encounter models, producers, photographers and designers.

Oh Game Lords, how we have missed thee.
I can barely recall the nights I spent inebriated beyond belief, stumbling into the pool fully clothed, playing flip cup and spin the bottle and who knows what happened after everyone blacked out.
Now, right smack in the middle of White Party, Game Lords returns for a one night only reunion extravaganza.
Expect the usual debauchery, people getting naked, bitches getting arrested, randoms getting tossed in the pool and all that jazz.
Erica Fickling, a.k.a Vanna Black, and I will be there to lead everyone in the usual ridiculousness. Expect Nefariousgirl and 8MTS to be wandering around also, capturing every scandalous moment.
Spin the Bottle? yup. Truth or Dare? why not. Lex and I will for sure be getting a Kings Cup (Circle of Death) game going. It’s a party that gives everyone a perfectly good excuse to be bad, which is just fine by us, because we’re all so good at being bad.
See you there suckers,
The Prince of Darkness, The Kid.

More Info
Vernissage, December 6th from 6pm to 11PM
Open bar + DJ + Artists performances
Frere Independent is proud to present the 8th edition of the PooL Art Fair in Miami. Slated for December 7, 8 & 9, 2012 PooL offers an extraordinary venue to its exhibitors and visitors. On the 14th floor of the Luxurious Marquis, Exhibitors will showcase artworks in 9 3 story high Townhouse around the ‘swimming’ pool. The show retains it tradition to present great, independent artists who are otherwise unrepresented during Art Basel Miami Beach.
The simple, modest approach of the PooL Art Fair offers an exciting alternative to the “Art Fair” experience for dealers and collectors as well as the general public. PooL’s purpose is to create a meeting ground for outstanding artists, primarily those who do not yet have gallery representation. Contemporary art dealers, artist agents, emerging galleries, artists’ collectives, and non-profit organizations are also invited to apply to participate as exhibitors. The fair serves as an invaluable resource for the artistic community and the general public.
We select artists whose works are original, and challenging. We ask that they share with the public their most recent works.

Juan-Carlos Zaldivar | Rondel Witherspoon | Megan Vun Wong | Buchi Upjohn
Janice Thacker | Ramon Silva | Jaime Rubio & Miguel Rey

POCKET OF LOLLIPOPS
Posh Punk Duo Maitejosune Urrechaga & Tony Kapel from Pocket of Lollipops bring to you another combination of their artshmaltz. These two have been know for their installations and music performances together. Individually Maite is a visual artist and Tony is a writer. When these two forces combine they marry iconic tones. Past events have included: “Cashmere Kitties,” “Snowcone in the Stairs,” “It’s Okay to Cross now,” and “The Halls Ways.” These events have ranged from Live Paper Ball Fights, feeding the audience lollipops, and creating and coloring masks to chasing snails. For this special performance, Maite describes her goal as helping the audience to “imagine drizzles of steel pressing themselves into your being.”
