The Confidante Miami Beach, a playful oceanfront oasis in Miami’s mid-beach neighborhood, continues to be a hub for the latest artwork in Miami with its rotating solo art exhibit joined by contemporary street artist and muralist Skott Marsi. The rotating exhibit, which kicked off during the renowned Art Basel in November 2017 and reimagined every eight weeks with a new artist, is one of many curated, unique activities put on by The Confidante for guests and visitors to enjoy.

The rotating art exhibit has debuted a series of diverse, impressive Miami-based artists including Ivan Roque, Claude Charlier, Sam Dobrow and Nestor Arenas. On August 6, Skott will showcase his exhibit “Controlled Chaos” that encompasses abstract, realism paintings.

Raised in Long Island, New York, Skott Marsi is a street artist and muralist. He attended Queens University of Charlotte and studied Graphic Design and Digital Communications. When creating his pieces, Skott draws inspiration from Picasso, Jackson Pollock and Banksy. His work has appeared in galleries across the world – New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Amsterdam, London, Spain, Greece and Milan – and he attains international recognition as a top contemporary street artist. Skott’s installation at The Confidante fuses spray cans and paint to create bold, abstract-colored images to convey modern day pop culture. The artwork draws inspiration based off his Miami experiences. Moving to Miami in 2011, Art Basel opened up his eyes to the Wynwood Arts District and the endless opportunities for artists alike. The installation reflects his experiences throughout these last seven years of living and working in Miami, inspiration from the local community and the artists that he has connected and collaborated with.

The rotating art exhibit, located on the south side end of the hotel’s lobby, is complimentary to hotel guests and visitors.

Cost: $10 to the general public, free to MOCA members and North Miami residents

The Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami (MOCA) will present the group exhibition “Monarchs: Brown and Native Contemporary Artists in the Path of the Butterfly” from May 24 – Aug. 5, 2018. Curated by Risa Puleo, the exhibition features the works of 37 artists who are native to the Americas separated into conceptual categories including indigenous, immigrant and assimilated.   
 
The exhibition focuses on the monarch, the only butterfly that migrates in two directions, as a geographic range and a metaphor. Monarchs (specifically those of eastern North American) fly from southern Canada through the Midwest on their way to Michoacán, Mexico and back. 
 
This survey of artists from or living in the path of the monarch, brings to life the Dakota Access Pipeline and the call to build a wall in Mexico as unrelenting issues that create challenges for people native to the Americas — being separated by conceptual categories of indigenous, immigrant, and assimilated. 
 
Like the butterfly, which takes at least four generations to completely navigate its way through middle America with inherited knowledge, these artists also use inherited cultural memory to showcase and explore historical narratives of their respective heritage through abstract techniques. 
 
Artists incorporate processes such as basket weaving, beadwork, copper hammering, and quilting, and materials such as stucco, plaster, ceramics, and feathers, that hold a high degree of resonance within native, immigrant, and brown aesthetics and vernacular cultures. The exhibition also charts the movement of styles and approaches through large spans of time across the Americas, speaking to an inherited means of production and genealogy of form. 
 
William Cordova, a nationally respected Miami-based artist, is one of the artists featured in the exhibition. Other artists include Gina Adams, Carmen Argote, Natalie Ball, Margarita Cabrera, Juan William Chávez, Rafa Esparza, Nancy Friedemann-Sánchez, Guillermo Galindo, Jeffrey Gibson, Sky Hopinka, Donna Huanca, Truman Lowe, Ivan LOZANO, Cannupa Hanska Luger and Marty Two Bulls, Jr, Salvador Jiménez-Flores, Nicholas Galanin and Merritt Johnson, Rodolfo Marron III, Harold Mendez, Mark Menjivar, Ronny Quevedo, Gonzalo Reyes Rodriguez, Josh Rios andAnthony Romero, Guadalupe Rosales, Carlos Rosales-Silva, Francisco Souto, Rodrigo Valenzuela, Mary Valverde, Dyani White Hawk, Nathan Young, and Sarah Zapata.

Cost: $12 adults; $8 seniors and military; $5 students (13 – 17) and college students (with valid ID); free for MDC MOAD members, MDC students, faculty, and staff, and children 12 and under.

Exhibition on View During Museum Hours:
Wednesdays–Fridays, 1:00 – 6:00 PM; Saturdays, 1:00–8:00 PM; Sundays, 1:00 – 6:00 PM

The first design exhibition scheduled in the MDC Museum of Art and Design after its April 2018 reopening, By the People: Designing a Better America will explore the challenges faced by urban, suburban and rural communities in the U.S. and its bordering countries.
Based on more than two years of field research—traveling to shrinking post-industrial cities, sprawling metro regions, struggling rural towns, border regions, areas impacted by natural and man-made disaster, and places of persistent poverty, this exhibition presents collaborative designs for more equitable, inclusive and sustainable communities.

Organized by the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian American Design Museum, and curated by Cynthia E. Smith, the exhibition features sixty design projects from every region across the United States, the exhibition will highlight design solutions that expand access to education, food, health care and affordable housing; increase social and economic inclusion; offer improved alternative transportation options; and provide a balanced approach to land use between the built and natural environment.
By the People aims to empower visitors to see themselves as designers—not just of objects, but also of ideas, strategies, and solutions that improve their daily lives. The exhibition will showcase the innovative and impactful actions generated through design, and inspire creative problem-solving at local, regional, national, and even international levels.

William Kentridge: More Sweetly Play the Dance 5/19/18

William Kentridge: More Sweetly Play the Dance
Saturday, 05/19/2018 – 09/30/2018 01:00 pm – 06:00 pm
Freedom Tower
600 Biscayne Blvd,
Miami, Florida 33132

Cost: $12 adults; $8 seniors and military; $5 students (13 – 17) and college students (with valid ID); free for MDC MOAD members, MDC students, faculty, and staff, and children 12 and under.

Exhibition on View During Museum Hours:
Wednesdays–Fridays, 1:00 – 6:00 PM; Saturdays, 1:00–8:00 PM; Sundays, 1:00 – 6:00 PM

More than 130 feet long, William Kentridge’s 8-channel video installation, More Sweetly Play the Dance, encircles the viewer. Partly filmed live, partly rendered in Kentridge’s signature animated style, the work covers the walls of a gallery with images of a procession in a blasted landscape. An update of the danse macabre, this parade of death includes a brass band in the lead, followed by people carrying possessions or shrouded bodies, priests, patients dragging their IV drips, skeletons, and a live ballerina (South African dancer Dada Masilo), who wears a military uniform and carries a rifle. Wooden chairs for the viewers and four megaphones on tripods playing the soundtrack make this performative video an immersive experience. Combining elements of medieval allegory with evocations of recent sights such as Syrian refugees and bodies felled by Ebola, Kentridge presents a never-ending carnivalesque reminder of our own mortality that is by turns morbid, chilling, comic, and political. But in the artist’s hands, the triumph of death ultimately becomes a celebration of resilience and life.
William Kentridge is regarded as one of the most significant contemporary artists of our time. He has gained international recognition for his distinctive animated short films, and for the charcoal drawings he creates through a unique process of erasure and re-drawing. A native of Johannesburg, Kentridge has always addressed the more challenging and intimate aspects of contemporary life in South Africa, during both Apartheid and the post-Apartheid period, investigating the ways in which identities are shaped through shifting ideas of history and place. In the course of his examination, he explores the role of poetry in contemporary society, and offers a biting, satirical commentary of that society, proposing a way of seeing life as process rather than as fact. He is a visual artist, a filmmaker, a director, and a great raconteur. His body of work has spanned several artistic disciplines over three decades. Through the mediums of film, sculpture, installation, charcoal drawing, and his work in theater, Kentridge has explored the nature of memory and emotions, and the ambiguity and complexity of social conflicts in the age of globalization.

Hidden secrets revealed by Barry Fellman’s Mangrove Coast photos will be on view in an invited installation at this year’s Art Miami Fair. Open free to the public during Miami Art Week, new photos from this multi-year project will be presented in a specially designed shipping container at the entrance of Art Miami. The installation, part of the Deep See project, will invite viewers into an immersive water focused experience. 
 
Felllman’s images seduce you, inviting you closer to understand them.  As you approach they clarify into familiar forms of sea grasses and shells, while basic notions of scale and distance remain a mystery until your nose is nearly pressed against the photograph. You then realize you are looking at a wondrous and fantastic view of the shoreline, full of secrets and mysteries.
 
The mangrove ecosystem provides shoreline protection and serves as the economic base for the recreational and commercial activities that have made South Florida prosper.  It recycles nutrients and is the breeding and feeding grounds for hundreds of species, nurturing a wide range of marine life, amphibians, birds, and mammals. 
 
Mangrove Coast at Art Miami is one of four invited components of the Deep See project highlighting awareness about climate change, sea level rise and marine conservation.

Arts and culture are essential for building a community, supporting the development and contributing to economic opportunity. Collectively, arts and culture enable understanding of the past and envisioning of a shared, more equitable future. The 7th Edition of Art Africa Miami Arts Fair: Back To Black: No On/Off Ramps is set to kick off Miami Art Week and Art Basel 2017 on December 5-10, 2017. The art fair is housed between the Pan-African Pavilion at 919 Plaza at The Lyric and the Featured Artists Pavilion at 920 historic Clyde Killens’ building both on NW 2nd Avenue in Overtown. Art Africa Miami Arts Fair explores how Black Arts respond to the assaults that currently beset the global African Diaspora and the world at large and how artists of African descent and the global south create modes of intervention of radical autonomy.

The event is sponsored by the City of Miami Southeast Overtown Community Redevelopment Agency(SEOPW) and the Greater Miami Visitors and Conventions Bureau. Twenty-five artists from the United States, Africa, Europe, the Caribbean and Latin America are set to showcase their work.
This year’s theme, BACK TO BLACK: No On/Off Ramps, is a multimedia presentation including paintings, sculptures, photography, installation, and video as well as performance exploring how alternative narratives confront the resurgence of oppression and the idea of Black arts’ intervention in the cultural sphere as both necessary and urgent.

BACK TO BLACK: No On/Off Ramps explores how Black Arts respond to the assaults that currently beset the global African Diaspora and the world at large and how artists of African descent and the global south create modes of intervention of radical autonomy.

BACK TO BLACK: No On/Off Ramps honors all participant artists whose works have been deemed retaining a truth dimension of liberation. There will also be a series of lectures by noted artists and scholars who are at the forefront of the African Diaspora movement.

The “ways of an island”— its functioning components and life essentials are guiding principles. We examine family, land & sea, ritual, revolution and color as elemental forces that can illuminate the roadmap for a more generous, stable fate.

Past performers have included Alicia Keys, Major Lazer, A$AP Rocky, Cardi B, DMX, Pusha T and more.

No Commission Miami is the sixth in a series of artist support collaborations. Past editions were held in Miami, New York, London, Shanghai and Berlin where artworks were sold and artists retained 100% of sales proceeds. The No Commission platform is realized through a partnership between BACARDÍ, Swizz Beatz, and The Dean Collection in their continued support of cultural visionaries around the world.

No Commission: Miami is open via invitation only on Thursday, December 7. On Friday, December 8 and Saturday, December 9 No Commission: Miami will be open to the public from 12pm to 5pm, and from 7pm to 12am with valid registration.

Your tea dance just got artsier.
Miami’s favorite LGBT arty party returns to the back garden at Superfine! for the second year in a row, playing host to an evening of cocktails, art, and fun networking among South Florida’s LGBT movers and shakers.
Join us for a Saturday evening tea party and cocktail hour welcoming all of our LGBTQ friends and their allies in the back garden of Superfine! Miami. Sounds provided by Aural Fixation w/ DJ Mouthlove and a cast of guest DJs and performance artists representing the LGBT community set the background for a Miami Art Week evening to remember.

Blue Moon Hotel Miami Beach Presents “Fridge Art Fair Miami: The Art Bagel Edition”
Press Release (ePRNews.com) – NEW YORK – Aug 17, 2017 – Blue Moon Hotel Miami Beach Presents “Fridge Art Fair Miami: The Art Bagel Edition”

December 4-10: Fridge Art Fair returns for the 5th year to Art Basel | Miami Beach and Art Week Miami after an enormously successful 50 Shades of Fridge at the NU Hotel Brooklyn

during Frieze Week- New York 2017.

(Miami – August 1, 2017) – Fridge Art Fair has just announced that this year’s Miami fair entitled “Fridge Art Fair Miami: The Art Bagel Edition ” will be held from December 4-10 at the modern and historic Blue Moon Hotel in the heart of South Beach during Art Basel.

The esteemed Fontsquared has been appointed the curators of the fair. The husband and wife artist team, Ignacio and Jean Font ( https://fontsquared.org ), aim to create a uniform work of art by considering shape, form and color in their careful selection of works.

“We are honored to partner with such a gem of a hotel and to have such a talented curatorial team behind the scenes,” said Eric Ginsburg (http://www.worldoferic.com) Founder and Director of the fair. “Blue Moon’s spectacular art deco design will be a great backdrop to the amazing and diverse artwork featured at Fridge. Some of the new elements of the fair, such as a craft bazaar and video lounge, are really going to take this Fridge to the next level!”

A highlight of “Fridge Art Fair Miami: The Art Bagel Edition” is the “Fridge Magnet Project.” This project, open to all artists and art lovers, invites participants to create a magnet to be displayed during the fair. More information about participating in this truly Fridge Spectacular project can be found on the fair’s website. ( http://fridgeartfair.com )

Fridge Art Fair is also partnering with the Dog Wall of Fame Foundation, a branch of Fridge Art Fair, to present the “Fridge Dog All Star Wall of Fame.” Showcasing some of the world’s most renowned four-legged friends, inductees will be announced during the VIP/Press Bagel and Lox preview on Sunday December 3r d from 1-8pm. The nominees include fan favorites such as Toto, Spud McKenzie, and Lassie.

The video lounge, which will take place in Blue Moon’s scenic courtyard, will display “Fridge-a-delightful” videos that are thought provoking, fun and moving, and, like all Fridge’s activities, a reflection of the world at large. The world’s first Fridge bazaar —The Mini Bagel Bazaar Marketplace — will also take place during the fair in the courtyard. More details will follow.

About Fridge Art Fair: Fridge Art Fair was born in 2013 on New York’s Lower East Side. Fridge Art Fair is the boutique, soft sell, dog-friendly satellite fair dubbed by Artinfo as “the baby who has refused to obey orders to stand outside the door while the adults confabulate inside.”

About Eric Ginsburg: Fridge Art Fair Founder and Artist Eric Ginsburg, ( http://www.worldoferic.com ), is best known for his unique and whimsical dog and cat portraits which consist of soulful and painterly qualities. Ginsburg credits his success to the Sol LeWitt as a patron and friend who commissioned works, and served as a mentor, along with William Wegman, who served as both Eric’s “pen pal” and as a “kind of a hero.”

Ginsburg’s works are found in public & private collections around the world including: Herb & Dorothy Vogel Collection of the National Gallery of Art; Corrie ten Boom Museum, The Netherlands; New Britain Museum of American Art; The Cartin Collection; Cindy Sherman; Fred Dorfman; William Wegman; Agnes Gund; Paula Cooper and the LeWitt Collection.

About Blue Moon Hotel: Located in the heart of Miami’s Art Deco District, Blue Moon Hotel is housed in a Mediterranean Revival building on Collins Avenue. The 75-guestroom historic hotel was created in 1997 through the artful combination of two unique buildings: the Lafayette Hotel, which originally opened in 1934 and the Floral Apartment Hotel (later known as Les Suites) built in 1940. Merv Griffin, the late entertainer and hotelier, once owned the hotel and gave the hotel its name after the song “Blue Moon” written by Rodgers and Hart. (Griffin was always particularly fond of the tune.) The hotel is an affiliate of Marriott’s Autograph Collection and is a proud member of HHM’s Independent Collection.

The event is expected to attract many guests throughout our community and bring French dignitaries to the City of North Miami Beach. In addition to unveiling the sculpture of Totor, we are revealing the Totor Art Plaza which will provide a brand-new look for the landscaping in front of City Hall for the enjoyment of our residents.

In July 2016, Stéphane Bolongaro, a former North Miami Beach gallery owner donated his world famous Totor sculpture to the City. Totor was the featured piece in Monaco this past March during Mr. Bolongaro’s art exhibition that hosted His Serene Highness Prince Albert II. In August 2017, Stéphane Bolongaro launched his second exhibition of Totor at the Promenade du Paillon in Nice, France.

As part of the vision of being a beautiful and safe residential community in South Florida, the City of North Miami Beach looks for opportunities to make that a reality. Implementing art in public places throughout the City is one such means of realizing that vision. To learn more, please contact us at public.affairs@citynmb.com.

Bubbles, Michael Jackson’s Chimp, Really Does Paint!

Miami, June 8, 2017: After great success at Art Basel 2012, the paintings by Michael Jackson’s chimpanzee, Bubbles, and many others will be on display for 10 days at Frames USA & Art Gallery in Miami. The opening reception will be on July 21, 2017 from 6pm-10pm where the public can view and purchase a very unique piece of original ape art.

“Purchasing a piece of original art by apes is a collectible. It creates conversation, it is a form of expression, and it is rare”, Adam Brand says, owner of Frames USA. “Not to mention that the proceeds from the sales of the art will go to an amazing cause”

Over the years, zoos and sanctuaries have dabbled into selling artwork at their gift shops by resident animals to raise money. However, the purpose of this art show, Apes that Paint, extends beyond that. It seeks to establish the fact that apes are artists without judgment and second that these ape artists are contributing to the fundraising efforts for The Center for Great Apes, located in Wauchula, Florida.

Aside from artworks from our star artist Bubbles, the exhibition will host other wonderful original pieces from celebrity apes. Among them, the art of chimpanzees from Planet of the Apes, and orangutans from the movie Going Apes, and NBC’s soap opera Passions. The crowd will enjoy complimentary food and wine sponsored by Carolina Ale House and a limited-edition gift with their RSVP to the event. For free admission and gift, RSVP at http://www.framesusamiami.com/frames-usa-events-1.html by July 18.

Come experience this unique art show and take an exciting piece home that will marvel friends and family, and learn about a sanctuary that helps protect chimpanzee and orangutans.

Gary Nader Art Centre is proud to present an exhibition by Brazilian contemporary master Claudio Tozzi. The exhibition “Territorios” will feature Tozzi’s most recent work and will be on view from March 2 through April 2 at the Gary Nader Art Centre in Wynwood, located at 62nd NE 27th Street.

Born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Claudio Tozzi initiated his career as an artist in the early ‘60s, with the appropriation of objects, images taken from newspapers, comics and photos associated with social issues through symbolic connotations. In the ‘70s, he created a new syntax through the construction of a thread of reticules and chromatic granulations that led to structures and spaces full of intense symbolic meanings. From the ‘80s until his more recent works, he intensified his formal concerns and started to work with basic structural elements such as lines, planes, colors and organic forms and materials that create formal analogies with pre-existing images and enlarge their constructive characteristics. Gary Nader Art Centre is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Photographs of INK Art Fair 12/3/16

The small, but interesting INK Art Fair is one of our favorites! It features works on paper, prints and work that you will not see anywhere else. For example, one item we saw was a drawing of a capitol building from 1739. The oldest items we saw was from the 13th century. And they have work all the way up to today. It is a wonderful quiet respite from the noisy mayhem of many of the shows.

Andy Sweet, a native son of Miami Beach, spent years photographing the life and residents of South Beach. His work was cut short when he was murdered in 1982, but he left behind an amazing, insightful body of luminous color photographs that still shine today.

Before Art Basel recognized Miami Beach as a burgeoning arts community, Andy recognized its importance, beauty, and the fleeting nature of that era. His work is now being rediscovered by a new generation and will be on display as part of Ed Christin Collection (Booth # PH04) at Pinta Miami in Wynwood as part of Art Basel, November 30-December 4.

Andy’s showing at Pinta Miami, includes some of Andy’s original prints, as well as some of the recently-printed restorations. A VIP Private Event will be held on Wednesday, November 30, 6- 8 .m. Invitation is valid for two. RSVP to VIP@pintamiami.com

This is the first time Andy’s work will be featured in Art Basel. This exhibition comes in the wake of his exhibition at the Miami Beach Cinematheque, which ran from September to November 2016. His tragic death and the following trials were covered extensively in the media. The son of a prominent Miami Beach family, the gruesome nature of his death diverted attention from his art just when his work was gaining a following.

By mischance, his negatives were lost, leaving only the prints he’d made as his legacy, their colors slowly fading away. In 2006, on finding a trove of color ‘work prints’ Andy made prior to printing full-size prints, Stan Hughes realized that digital technology could be used to restore the fading colors back to their original jewel-like glory.

Exhibition Dates: Thursday, December 1, noon to 8 p.m.; Friday, December 2, noon to 8 pm.; Saturday, December 3, noon to 8 p.m.; Sunday, December 4, noon to 7 p.m. http://www.pintamiami.com. Ed Christin Collection (Andy Sweet’s photography archivist).

Spanning two weeks and coinciding with Miami Art Week, Prizm Art Fair will take place November 29 through December 11, 2016 at its new location: 7230 NW Miami CT in the Little Haiti / Little River community.

The programing and highlights for Prizm connect directly to the fair’s mission of presenting the work of international emerging artists African artists and artists from the Global African Diaspora, who are traditionally unrepresented by galleries in the mainstream art world. The theme for the fourth edition will explore the global impact of Africa’s cultural DNA and will showcase over 40 artists from eight countries including: France, Haiti, Jamaica, Nigeria, St. Martin, and Trinidad and Tobago, split between two sections curated by fair Director and Founder Mikhaile Solomon and interdisciplinary artist William Cordova.

Tuesday November 29th – Opening Night

Thursday December 1st – Prizm Perform
6:00 PM – 6:30 PM – Nyugen Smith, A Letter Home: Hoping to reach you soon, Part 2
This thirty-minute performance aims to bring together three generations of Haitians to tell a story of belonging, longing, achievement and their contributions to global culture. This story will be told through instrumentation and performative actions made by the artist and a small ensemble of Haitian residents of Miami. The ensemble will be made up of family and friends of the artist who live in Miami and are musicians in their church (Salvation Army) band. Smith dressed as a military general will lead the ensemble through a series of formations and dialog that bounces between English, French and Haitian Creole, punctuated by musical scores. As a Haitian descendant, Smith knows very little about the history, culture and legacy of the Haitian people and is using this project to learn about the aforementioned while bringing the ensemble together to share their knowledge and experience making together.

6:45 – 7:15 PM Ayana Evans, Gurl I’d Drink Your Bath Water
Evans delivers a layered performance that is part social commentary, part autobiographical. An interactive performance piece, “Gurl, I’ll Drink Your Bathwater,” a piece originally created in 2015 for Performance Anxiety in New York, NY. Within this project the act of washing represents various ideas. There are references to the religious use of water to cleanse the soul, the need for women to be “clean” in our society, beauty ideals in the US, and even a nostalgia for the Palmolive soap used in the piece because it is the same dish washing liquid used by the artist’s mother and grandmother. The title is based on the Black American old school saying, “You’re so fine, I’d drink your bathwater.” This phrase has been used as both an extreme compliment and as an all too familiar catcall for Black women. For the the iteration performed at Prizm, has a new ending has been added.

Friday December 2nd – Prizm Panels
12 PM – 12:45 PM Evolution of Black Artist Movements: Jamea Richmond-Edwards and AMber Robles-Gordon
Artists Jamea Richmond-Edwards and Amber Robles-Gordon, Co-Founders of Delusions of Grandeur artist collective will speak of the relevancy, evolution and power of artist collectives and artistic movements. Richmond-Edwards and Robles-Gordon, parlayed a series of conversations about personal experiences in the art world, the cultural influence and legacy of Howard University, and the examination of artist group and movements such as Spiral, Black Artists of DC, Africobfra and the Black Arts Movement to build a contemporary art cannon. Delusions of Grandeur is a collective of emerging artists brought together by a shared interest and commitment to their art, a need to provide critique and commentary on social infrastructures within American society and to contribute to the prominence of the collective black voice and presence within contemporary art. Delusions of Grandeur is comprised of artists Shaunte Gates, Jamea Richmond-Edwards, Amber Robles-Gordon, Stan Squirewell, Wesley Clarke and Larry Cook Jr.

1:00 – 1:45 PM Young Art Collectors presented by Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation
TBA

2:00 – 2:45 PM – Caribbean Canon: A Caribbean Art Education Initiative with Daniela Fifi, Stephanie Cunningham & Erin Hylton
The history of art in the Caribbean exists in its fragmented past, resulting in the rich and culturally diverse artistic practices present throughout the region. Despite the immense impact that Caribbean art forms have had on the economies and unique cultures of these islands, many of their artistic practices have been inadequately researched and documented. Furthermore, Caribbean art forms are oftentimes left out of the national discourse within education. This presentation aims to address the lacuna present within Caribbean art education through presenting an online platform that will provide information and resources to regional and global audiences.

3:00 – 3:45 PM – Oasa Duverney Presented by Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation
Duverney discusses her exhibition, The View From Nowhere, a showcase of social justice-driven large-scale drawings and mixed media works created to give a “visual voice” for those who continue to be silenced. Her work comes from her own lived experiences and observations, with themes ranging from criminalization of black and brown, bodies, gentrification, housing scarcity, and other pressing social justice issues facing women and people of color in New York City and the United States at-large.

4:00 – 4:45 Pm Black Femininity In Contemporary Art With Karen Senefuru
Karen Senefuru discusses The Black Woman is God exhibition, a multi-media visual and spiritual exhibition for audiences to recognize an alternative to Western cultural narratives that challenges Eurocentric notions of God. Through an examination of cosmology, womanhood, feminism, politics and psychology, The Black Woman is God challenges gaps and fragments in art history that position Black art as only ancient or contemporary, failing to honor the space in between.

Untitled, Miami Beach – Fifth anniversary 11/30/16 – 12/4/16

Untitled, Miami Beach
November 30 – December 4, 2016.
on the beach at Ocean Drive and 12th Street

Untitled, Art has announced its 2016 exhibitors list for the fifth edition of Untitled, Art, Miami Beach. The curated selection features 129 international galleries from 20 countries and 48 cities, with 37 new exhibitors including galleries from Iceland, Sardinia and South Africa, as well as a continuing strong presence of Latin American and European galleries. The 2016 edition of the fair will be the largest to date, with an expanded floorplan that will accommodate many exhibitors taking larger booths. Through its unique, curated, approach, Untitled, Art continues its strong commitment to presenting a selection of emerging, established and historical artists; providing visitors the opportunity to revisit and discover a diverse range of art works presented within an architecturally designed space.

Untitled, Art’s exhibitors are carefully selected by the curatorial team, consisting of Artistic Director, Omar López-Chahoud and co-curators Christophe Boutin and Melanie Scarciglia, who work closely with the galleries and their artists to produce a cohesive show that feels more like an exhibition than an art fair. The 2016 edition will offer visitors a compelling dialogue between new discoveries and influential historical artists; diverse presentations of technology-based works; and collaborations with a selection of prominent non-profit organizations.

The extensive list of participants taking part in Untitled, Miami Beach spans 20 countries including Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, Iceland, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Panama, Peru, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom and the United States.
Several galleries will highlight historical works that explore conceptual practices, including New York-based gallery Nyehaus who will juxtapose the work of two pioneers of the “Light and Space” movement – Mathew Scheiber and Laddie John Dill. Also exploring this theme, Galeria Raphael Ortiz, based in Seville, will present a survey of renowned Spanish collective EQUIPO57, whose radical multi-disciplinary practice in the 1950’s and 1960’s explored the ideas of authorship and the influence of art on society. In addition to Noemí Escandell’s Dairio El Blanco (part of this year’s Special Projects) Henrique Faria Buenos Aries will also show conceptual works by a selection of Latin American artists from the 1960s and 1970s including Delia Cancela and Mirtha Dermisache. Works by a leading figure in the feminist art movement, Miriam Schapiro, can also be found at Eric Firestone Gallery (New York).

New exhibitors to Untitled, Miami Beach include Reykjavik-based gallery BERG Contemporary, which will present new and rarely seen works by pioneering video artists Steina and Woody Vasulka. Through important video and print work the presentation will cast a light on the couple’s extensive career and explorations of the malleability of the image, the manipulation of electronic energy and the interrelation of sound and image. Cape Town’s WHATIFTHEWORLD will make its first appearance at the fair, presenting a solo booth of works by South African artist Paul Edmunds. Magnin A, from Paris, will also make their debut with a selection of contemporary African artists.

Miami is recognized as the gateway to Latin America, and Untitled, Miami Beach continues to have a strong presence of this region at the fair. This year, highlights include presentations from Baró (São Paulo), Mite (Buenos Aires), CURRO (Guadalajara), DiabloRosso (Panama City), as well as Galleria Macca’s solo booth of works by Argentinian artist Diego Singh. Argentina in particular has increased its presence this year, with seven galleries and numerous artists represented at the fair.

Time-based and new-media arts will also be presented by a number of exhibitors at Untitled, Miami Beach, 2016. Of note are two exhibitors whose programs focus on artist utilizing film, video and new technologies; Aspect/Ratio with works by Alejandro Figueredo Díaz-Perera and Sabina Ott, while Microscope will be debuting new works by Zach Nader, Kevin Reuning and Eileen Maxson.

As part of its curatorial ethos, Untitled integrates not-for-profit and artist-run exhibition spaces into the overall layout, positioning artworks and artists in direct dialogue. This year’s non-profits exhibitors include the ICA Miami, Aperture Foundation, Exile Books, Brodsky Center at Rutgers University, Microscope and SiTE:LAB.

Held at the “Waterfront Fair in the Round”, Concept Art Fair sits on a 32-acre Noguchi designed Bayfront Park on Biscayne Bay – the epicenter of Downtown Miami’s Arts, Museum and Entertainment District – bounded on the north by Perez Art Museum Miami and on the south by the city’s dynamic Brickell Financial District, home to over 1000 companies making up Miami’s global trading, banking, law, creative and tech industries. Over 45 participating galleries will be exhibiting internationally renowned modern and contemporary art.
Highlights of the fair include a rare view of the artworks by Pritzker-winning architect, Richard Meier who is currently completing a re-design of Miami Beach’s Shore Club. Collectors will have the first viewing of Meier’s collage installation which contains 224 major original works of art. Meier’s collages join the tradition of collages in modern art, alluding to Dadaist collages, and to their later interpretation by artists such as Robert Rauschenberg. The collages of Meier also resonate the decollagist legacy of European post-WWII artists such as Mimmo Rotella and Raymond Haines. Meier’s collage practice suggests an in-depth examination of his vision of constructed and deconstructed spatiality, offering a key to the work of a globally significant architect who is also a unique artist.
Art historian and author, Peter Hastings Falk will present the works of the large and innovative paintings of Gil Cuatrecasas [1935–2004], a brilliant but reclusive visionary colorist whose paintings had been buried for the last forty years — and nearly discarded. “The Cuatrecasas Discovery” is making its first appearance on the East Coast at Art Concept having made its debut earlier this year in Los Angeles where a feature article in the Los Angeles Times concluded that “No one has ever painted like this.” After attending Harvard and Yale he worked with Josef Albers. This solo exhibition is presented by redM, the online illustrated biographical encyclopedia of artists who have been rediscovered — or newly discovered — by founding Editor and Curator, Peter Hastings Falk, and his Art Advisory Board. Falk underscores the surprise that, for Cuatrecasas, the artist’s style, as well as his technique, are unique in the history of painting. “These paintings elicit a strong visceral reaction,” says Falk, “People linger in contemplation not only over the compelling imagery but over the inscrutable complexity of the technique and paint-handling. No one has fully figured out how he did them.” Fourteen paintings will be exhibited, with a few as long as 14-18 feet. Cuatrecasas’s particular form of action painting exemplifies how web-like configurations of color and surface become a free-floating energy in the world, suggesting an existential stance regarding the intersection of art and life.
Art Concept Fair revitalizes the notion of the Bayfront Park as an open space for the arts. “Reimagining Miami Public Spaces – Homage to Isamu Noguchi”, part of the Art Concept Fair program, is a special outdoor project in Bayfront Park by Miami Mountains Foundation and the City of Miami Public Art Initiative on the significance of art in public places to enhance urban communities and create new audiences. Produced in partnership and with the support of Miami-Dade County Cultural Affairs/Art in Public Places, Miami Beach Art in Public Places, Bayfront Park Management Trust, the Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Museum, American Institute of Architects, International Sculpture Center, The Miami Foundation, Next Level Fairs and private sponsors. The Biscayne entrance to the fair will be transformed into an outdoor sculpture exhibition through the duration of the fair. The project will stretch Noguchi’s notion interactive sculpture and will expand the scope of viewing participation from the purely experiential-sensual, to the social and historical.
Redesigned in the early 1980’s by Noguchi, the park’s 32 acres of lush greenery, its proximity to the water – which affords a spectacular view of the bay that can be enjoyed from the fair’s dining area – its central location close to ample parking and public transportation, and its proximity to Miami’s leading restaurants, luxury shopping, museums and five star hotels.
Art Concept’s 50,000 sq. ft. 4700 sq. meter column-free venue is enhanced with the translucent ceiling, waterfront dining, lecture pavilion, and outdoor sculpture garden drive from Miami making this the premiere art fair location for Art Basel Week visitors. A short 12 minutes Beach’s Convention Center the fair will offer easy direct access to satellite fairs and the city’s highlighted social events.

bo.lee gallery presents artist Andrew McIntosh at Pulse art fair Miami
1-4th December 2016

Booth S-107
Indian Beach Park
4601 Collins Av.
Miami Beach

London based bo.lee brings the eerie Scottish Highlands to sunny Miami Beach in a beautiful pairing which reflects McIntosh’s new body of work ‘Where We Belong’.
Born in Scotland in 1979, for his latest body of works, Where We Belong (2016), Andrew McIntosh has returned to the landscape that surrounds his family home which he got to know intimately while growing up. In his trademark painterly realist style and with a subdued, earthy palette, the artist depicts beautifully atmospheric locations from marshy moorlands to misty woodlands and ice-capped hills.

But these are not simply haunting Highland landscapes, however, as clearly present within each scene is an old caravan, some of which might have been manufactured half a century ago or more. Situated in picturesque spots but seemingly abandoned and without a human in sight, these somewhat dishevelled caravans appear both strangely incongruous yet somehow completely at home. Glowing with the warmth of the setting sun, the caravans become transformed into mysterious portals to other places and other times, suggesting that metaphysics, science-fiction or the paranormal might not be far away.

Fans of Westerns might spot that several of the landscapes depicted inside the caravans are scenes from classic movies of this genre. It is as if McIntosh is drawing both a comparison and a contrast between the picturesque beauty of the landscape in which he grew up and that of the American Midwest. Both are places that inspire the romantic imaginary: dreams of travel and escape, of leading different kinds of lives.

Indeed, this new body of work might be read as a metaphor for faded or failed dreams of adventure, of journeying to places far from home, or back in time to places we once knew. While they are wistful, eerie and melancholic paintings, with their golden sunset scenes they are not devoid of hope, and maybe, just maybe, these caravans have not yet reached their final destinations.

PULSE Miami Beach returns to its oceanfront home at Indian Beach Park from Thursday,
December 1 through Sunday, December 4, 2016. The twelfth edition of PULSE in Miami will welcome a
diverse community of established and emerging galleries across five continents presenting the latest cuttingedge
artwork and current practices. Opening with its signature Private Preview Brunch on Thursday,
December 1 from 10am-1pm, PULSE looks forward to introducing its vibrant audience of art collectors and
enthusiasts to a dynamic overview of today’s contemporary art market.

Following last year’s successful expansion, PULSE will return with over 70 galleries and 200 artists
welcoming an array of national and international exhibitors. With first time exhibitors making up 25% of the
fair’s roster, PULSE will showcase new works from galleries from Colombia, Spain, China and Japan among
others. Housed within two spacious pavilions, PULSE’s overall range and diversity provides an immersive
experience for its guests. PULSE’s North Tent will highlight established galleries presenting multi-artist
booths while the South Tent spotlights IMPULSE, solo exhibitions whose artists are eligible for the PULSE
PRIZE, and CONVERSATIONS, dual-artist shows allowing galleries to explore conceptual dialogues
between the artists they represent.

This year, PULSE will debut its first PROJECTS Special Commission featuring digital artist, Anne Spalter.
The special commission, tied to PROJECTS programming, provides funding for an artist invited to showcase
their work at PULSE. Housed in the fair’s airy entry-way, Spalter’s Miami Marbles will invite visitors to explore
a new form of art ‘the Modern Landscape.’ Using photographs and video replicas of last year’s Miami Art
Week, Spalter digitally alters and distills images of the city’s atmosphere, architecture and foliage to create
contemporary landscapes. By abstracting Miami’s topography, Spalter encapsulates the vibrancy of the city
within each of her expansive spheres. An augmented reality component will also allow guests to engage with
the orbs through an interactive interface. Viewers will be able to explore kaleidoscopic moving videos on the
spheres and discover virtual orbs around the fair through the custom Marbles app.

“With the continuing growth of international representation amongst our exhibitors and the debut of Anne
Spalter’s special commission, we look forward to championing an experience that creates an opportunity for
deeper engagement and an even more rewarding experience for our exhibitors and visitors,” says Director,
Helen Toomer.

Art Basel today announced the gallery list for its 2016 show in Miami Beach, comprising 269 leading international galleries, drawn from 29 countries across North and South America, Europe, Asia and Africa.

The 16 curated solo booths in Positions provide focused platforms for individual artists to present a major project. Adrià Julià (b. 1974) will transform Dan Gunn’s booth into a multi-media installation, which includes a mural based on Picasso’s ‘Guernica’. For Manuel Burgener’s (b. 1978) first exhibition in the United States, Galerie Maria Bernheim will create an installation through the interplay of light between sculptures and photograms. Callicoon Fine Arts will feature tapestries and enamel paintings by Ulrike Müller (b. 1971), while High Art will exhibit a series of ‘Trans-Habitats’ – invented microcosms – by Max Hooper Schneider (b. 1982).

At RaebervonStenglin, an interactive installation by Dane Mitchell (b. 1976) will disperse an artificial scent that is typically used by hunters as olfactory camouflage. JTT’s installation of paintings by Becky Kolsrud (b. 1984) will reflect both her devotion to the female form as well as her infidelity to style, while at Off Vendome, Jeanette Mundt’s (b. 1982) suggestive female figures from historical paintings are set directly within the space in a performative staging. Melanie Gilligan’s (b. 1979) TV-sculptures at Galerie Max Mayer will be populated with abstract animations that comment upon systems of commerce. At Thomas Erben Gallery, Mike Cloud’s (b. 1974) heavily layered collages will recycle product imagery and scenes of consumer culture.

In addition to showing premier artworks across five gallery sectors, many exhibitors will present works in Art Basel’s project-based sectors: Kabinett, Public and Film, currently being selected. Over the coming months, further details about these special sectors as well as about the Conversations and Salon program of panels and talks will be released.

The Miami Beach Convention Center, Art Basel’s home since the Miami Beach edition launched in 2001, is currently undergoing renovation, to be completed in 2018. Carefully planned by city officials around the Art Basel shows, the construction will result in improved exhibition halls and state of the art facilities for exhibitors and visitors. During the renovation, Art Basel will continue to take place throughout the same four exhibition halls as in past years. For more information on the project, please visit mbccfuture.com.

Art Basel has always had a close relationship with regional arts organizations. As such, South Florida’s leading museums time their strongest exhibitions of the year to coincide with Art Basel. In December, the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) will present ‘Julio Le Parc: Form into Action’, an exploration of kinetic work by one of the leading Argentinian artist; ‘Susan Hiller: Lost and Found’, an immersive video installation; ‘Sarah Oppenheimer: S-281913’, a series of architectural interventions; a solo show of paintings by David Reed; and work by Ulla von Brandenberg in the museum’s project gallery. The Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami (ICA Miami) will present ‘Thomas Bayrle’, while NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale will show ‘Belief + Doubt: Selections from the Francie Bishop Good and David Horvitz Collection’, ‘Francesco Clemente: Dormiveglia’, ‘Regeneration Series: Anselm Kiefer from the Hall Collection’ and ‘Samson Kambalu: Nyau Cinema’. Other highlights include ‘Modern Dutch Design’, ‘The Pursuit of Abstraction’, The Politics of -Isms’ and ‘Visionary Metropolis: Tony Garnier’s Une Cité Industrielle’ at the Wolfsonian-FIU; a project by Mark Dion at the Kampong National Tropical Botanical Garden in partnership with Florida International University; ‘Question Bridge: Black Males’ and ‘Rudin Prize for Emerging Photographers’ at the Norton Museum of Art; ‘When We Were Young’ and ‘José Parlá: Roots’ at YoungArts; and ‘The Other Dimension: Contemporary art practice as the existence of higher dimensions’ by Antuan Rodriguez at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA). Recently rebranded as The Bass, Miami Beach’s contemporary art museum will present off-site activations throughout the week as the museum looks ahead to its re-opening in Spring 2017.

Visitors from across the world will also have the opportunity to view the city’s internationally renowned private collections. This includes ‘Toda Percepción es una Interpretación: You are Part of It’ with works from Ella Fontanals-Cisneros and CIFO Collection at the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation (CIFO), ‘Progressive Praxis’ at the de la Cruz Collection Contemporary Art Space, ‘Jannis Kounellis: Paintings; Anselm Kiefer: Installations; Featuring: Radcliffe Bailey, Florian Baudrexel, Mark di Suvero, Mark Dion, David Ellis, Mark Manders, Olaf Metzel, Meuser, Will Ryman and Jason Schmidt’ at the Margulies Collection at the Warehouse and ‘High Anxiety: New Acquisitions’ at the Rubell Family Collection.

Design Miami is the global forum for design. Each fair brings together the most influential collectors, gallerists, designers, curators and critics from around the world in celebration of design culture and commerce. Occurring alongside the Art Basel fairs in Miami Beach, and Basel, Design Miami has become the premier venue for collecting, exhibiting, discussing and creating collectible design.

Now under the ownership of Redwood Media Group, which produces fine art show exhibitions including Spectrum Miami and Artexpo New York, Red Dot Miami will feature up to 75 international galleries exhibiting paintings, sculpture, photography, and secondary market works.

“We are thrilled to bring a new and improved Red Dot to Miami Art Week,” said Eric Smith, president of Redwood Media Group. “Boasting an upgraded gallery-style exhibition space with deeper booths, an exclusive VIP lounge, and added programming—including Art Labs, Spotlight Galleries, and Art Talks—
Red Dot Miami 2016 is taking things to a whole new level.”

The theme for Red Dot Miami 2016 is [EVOLVE]: At every turn, the art world is shifting. Galleries, artists, and collectors alike are continuously evolving, in turn imploring us to expand our perspectives.

Since its inception in 2006, Red Dot Miami has enriched the city’s arts scene beyond measure, becoming one of the leading satellite shows during Miami Art Week. As it enters its 10th year, Red Dot Miami will continue to showcase galleries representing primary and secondary market artists, showing art to inspire attendees from all over the world with its site-specific Art Lab projects, Art Talks, specially selected Spotlight Galleries, special events, and more. Taking place in a beautiful gallery-style venue, Red Dot Miami 2016 aims to play a key role in the rich array of Art Week events, nurturing and strengthening Miami’s art scene with a dynamic agenda.

Spectrum Miami, a juried contemporary art show in the heart of the Arts and Entertainment District, will run from Wednesday, November 30 to Sunday, December 4 during Miami Art Week. As part of Redwood Media Group, Spectrum Miami is more than an art show—it’s a five-day fine art experience featuring top galleries and artists from across the U.S. and around the world, along with entertainment, curated projects, and evening events.

Every December, thousands of art collectors, gallery owners, dealers, curators, artists, and art lovers flock to Miami Art Week. Alongside the powerhouse shows of Art Basel, Art Miami, Scope, and Miami Project, Spectrum Miami showcases innovative new art in an elegant, gallery-style exhibition space.

“Last year, we moved to a new location in the Arts and Entertainment District, resulting in a 14 percent increase in attendance,” said Eric Smith, president of Redwood Media Group. “We are excited to see what this year will bring as Spectrum Miami has emerged as one of the best-attended cultural events in Miami.”

The theme for Spectrum Miami 2015 is [ELEVATE]: Heightening your senses at the hub of the art world. Spectrum Miami features specially curated programs that are informed by the theme, including site-specific Art Lab projects, Art Talks, a specially selected emerging LaunchPad Artist, and a selection of Spotlight Artists. These programs provide a dynamic experience for attendees, allowing them to view and interact with works by leading national and international artists and view exhibitions and events that showcase the thriving art landscape of Miami.

Spectrum Miami will also once again host ArtSpot International—a show within a show—curated by director Aldo Castillo, one of the most respected authorities on modern and contemporary art. ArtSpot will present carefully selected modern, contemporary, and cutting-edge galleries with a strong Latin-American slant that specialize in painting, photography, sculpture, mixed media, and ceramics.

Tickets for Spectrum Miami’s Opening Night Preview Party are priced at $50. General Admission tickets are $20 for one day and $75 for the Opening Night Preview plus a five-day pass. Tickets will also grant you access to Red Dot Miami, a gallery-only show also owned by Redwood Media Group that is located right next to Spectrum Miami.

Fridge Art Fair Miami 11/27/16 – 12/4/16

Four years ago NY-based artist Eric Ginsburg, known for expressionism focused on animals, had an idea to create an art fair during New York’s Frieze week that was different from the others. His goal was to create an intimate space for art and art lovers. When asked if he was planning on putting on a Fridge During Art Week in Miami right after the inaugural Fridge Art Fair ended, the answer was ‘Why not?’! Hence Fridge Art Fair during Art Basel was born!

Fridge is an art fair with a heart and passion. It’s been called everything from Raw to a boutique fair. In Eric’s words, ‘This year we’re proud to present artists whose work is authentic and personal, with messages for everyone.’ As in past fairs (with this being the 4th) the question posed to artists who participate is always “Can you fit it into the Fridge?”

Fridge Fair at Art Basel Miami Beach 2016 will take place at The Betsy Hotel with an amended title of “A Curated Mini Fridge”, indicating the (even) smaller space used to exhibit and celebrate. The Betsy Hotel (thebetsyhotel.com) is a four star-four diamond hotel in the luxury boutique space with a unique commitment to philanthropy, arts, culture, and education. Partnering with Fridge Fair aligns perfectly with The Betsy’s mission.

The public is cordially invited to The Betsy Hotel Presents “A Curated Mini Fridge” in the Underground Gallery, located behind the front desk, and down the stairs. The work is for sale and the gallery space is open 24/7. For more information contact artsandculture@thebetsyhotel. com or info@fridgeartfair.com

ABOUT SUPERFINE!
Superfine! represents the continued evolution of the art world. We believe that inspired original artwork by living artists is for everyone, not just a select few.

The spaces that we build are a complement to the creativity they showcase, and channel the same dynamic energy of the artists and artrepreneurs that make up our lifeblood. Our values are rooted in providing a fair and challenging counter to the typical white box space–one wherein exhibitors thrive and collectors gain access to the freshest original artwork on the planet. We encourage and welcome new collectors, and provide a refreshing alternative for established ones. We like to think that Superfine! puts the “fair” back in art fair by displaying only the strongest artwork by the most passionate living artists while also offering exhibition space as affordably as possible. In this way, we are able to cultivate a deliciously vibrant space where both collectors and exhibitors end up on the right side of the deal.

PINTA Miami is gearing up for its 10th anniversary celebration, which will take place from November 30 to December 4, 2016 at MANA Wynwood, located in the heart of the Miami Arts District. This edition will be the pinnacle of ten years that have left a mark on the world of modern and contemporary art from Latin America. In order to further our mission, PINTA Miami’s curatorial committee has expanded its project to include galleries from around the globe while maintaining a conceptual dialogue across all cultures, connecting Latin America to the rest of the world.

Launched in New York in 2006, the fair is considered the most important event of its kind. The founding of PINTA Miami was a milestone event in awareness of twentieth-century Hispanic-American art. It has increased the visibility in the United States of crucial figures like Julio Le Parc, José Gurvich, Jorge Eielson, Lydia Okumura, Antonio Manuel, Waltercio Caldas, Ivan Contreras Brunet, Carlos Cruz-Diez, and Spanish artist Elena Asins—all of whom have been featured in its exhibitions and galleries. Emerging contemporary artists like Elias Crespin, Ivan Navarro, Alexandre Arrechea, Dario Escobar, Matias Duville, Alejandro Londono, Gonzalo Fuenmayor, José Luis Landet, Ricardo Alcaide, Emilio Chapela, and many others have also participated in the fair. Through innovative management strategies, PINTA has been instrumental to major museums’ acquiring works by Latin American artists. A few examples of such acquisitions include a piece by Abraham Palatnik purchased by MoMA for its permanent collection; a work by Elias Crespín purchased by The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; and a work by Fernando Bryce purchased by the Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (MALBA).

“Thanks to its impressive programming, PINTA Miami 2015 was extremely well attended. Our curated sections featured not only works by a range of legendary artists, but also recreations of historical performances. The fantastic selection of participating galleries from Latin America, Spain, and Portugal built new relationships with international collectors and directors of art institutions, enabling a great many sales,” states Diego Costa Peuser, the founder and director of PINTA Miami. “There was great interest in figures like Romulo Aguerre, Reynaldo Luza, Roberto Obregon, and Elena Asins, and in artists born after the sixties like the Carla Arocha – Stéphane Schraenen duo.”

PINTA Miami 2016 will be more international and interdisciplinary. Thanks to their successful sections at last year’s edition, curators José Antonio Navarrete, Roc Laseca, and Jesus Fuenmayor will return this year to curate sections on photography, drawing, and solo projects respectively. This edition aims to continue to provide a platform for its participants and to further the fair’s mission of showcasing pioneering artists and discovering young talents.

In addition, PINTA Miami launches the Young Collectors Desk, an initiative of Guijarro de Pablo Art Consulting. The objective is to provide to the assistants -already avid collectors and enthusiasts of art – with the necessary tools to maximize the experience at the fair. The Young Collectors Desk aims to educate and give attendees the opportunity to explore the world of the arts with guided tours that focus on the construction and maintenance of a coherent and sustainable collection. The initiative is directed by Jimena Guijarro, who combines her knowledge of strategic communications with her experience and passion for the visual arts. One of her specialties is to introduce and facilitate the collecting processes to newcomers to the art world.

PINTA Miami is directed by Diego Costa Peuser, CEO and Editor in Chief of Arte al Dia Internacional magazine. He is also the founder and director of PARC – Peru Arte Contemporaneo, BAphoto (Buenos Aires Photo), and the Buenos Aires and Punta del Este editions of Gallery Nights. In this 2016 edition, PINTA Miami will also enjoy the support of the SaludArte Foundation, directed by collector Tanya Brillembourg, and EFG Bank, a Swiss bank that has had offices in Miami for over twenty years. LATAM also returns to PINTA as the sponsor of VIP lounge. On this anniversary edition, PINTA reinforces its commitment to support and promote latin american art while connecting it to the rest of the world by “crossing cultures”, thereby taking the fair to new frontiers.

Toda percepción es una interpretación: You are part of it is a retrospective look from the viewpoint of contemporary issues of art, culture, politics and economics. It seeks to reflect on the successive reconfigurations of the art map in the last few decades, on the displacements and relocations of its primary centers, from Paris to New York, from Venice to São Paulo, from Basel to Miami. It speaks of areas that have succeeded in alternating centripetal or centrifugal forces, where art has relocated its meeting points and its observation points. We also pay attention to the effects of redrawing the financial or political map, with the repercussion it has on how one makes and proceeds in art.

Stacy Conde, of Conde Contemporary, the gallery on Miracle Mile in Coral Gables with a concentration on narrative realism, photorealistic portraiture and surrealism, has partnered with the Shelborne Wyndham Grand South Beach for the launch of Technique Art Fair during Miami Art Week 2016.

The focus of Technique Art Fair is primarily representational art, by a body of international artists, represented by a host of world class galleries and dealers.

Technique Art Fair will celebrate the tangible, the relatable, and the emotional qualities which artists convey in works that require more technique than abstraction.

“…contemporary art is in many ways so entranced by the conceptual that the actual work and technique involved in creating art, have become secondary, tertiary even, to the obfuscated artist’s statement. Happily, I sense a seismic shift is underway”, says Stacy Conde.

She isn’t alone in predicting a return to representational work.

‘After MoMA PS1 opened its ‘Greater New York’ quinquennial last fall with a noticeable crop of talented young figurative artists, the website Artspace exulted: ‘The figure is back, baby!’ Four days later, during the Frieze Art Fair, in London, The New York Times trumpeted: ‘The Triumphant Return of Figurative Art.’ And in December, during Art Basel Miami Beach, the über-dealers Jeffrey Deitch and Larry Gagosian joined forces to put on a splashy, market-friendly show of figurative painting and sculpture. Titled ‘Unrealism,’ it featured both old hands such as Marlene Dumas and rising stars like Mira Dancy, known for reinvigorating the female nude with electric colors and a feminist gaze.’ – by Fan Zhong, April 15, 2016 for W Magazine

Technique Art Fair will support approximately 20 booths reserved for art dealers and galleries, as well as space for independent artists, specifically sculptors.

Recently rebranded as The Bass, Miami Beach’s contemporary art museum will present off-site activations throughout the week as the museum looks ahead to its re-opening in Spring 2017.

Visitors from across the world will also have the opportunity to view the city’s internationally renowned private collections. This includes ‘Toda Percepción es una Interpretación: You are Part of It’ with works from Ella Fontanals-Cisneros and CIFO Collection at the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation (CIFO), ‘Progressive Praxis’ at the de la Cruz Collection Contemporary Art Space, ‘Jannis Kounellis: Paintings; Anselm Kiefer: Installations; Featuring: Radcliffe Bailey, Florian Baudrexel, Mark di Suvero, Mark Dion, David Ellis, Mark Manders, Olaf Metzel, Meuser, Will Ryman and Jason Schmidt’ at the Margulies Collection at the Warehouse and ‘High Anxiety: New Acquisitions’ at the Rubell Family Collection.

Wynwood Art Walk has become one of the most iconic events in Miami, and SWARM, the creator of its epicenter along NW 23rd Street and 5th Avenue, is now poised to serve as an advocate for the Miami music scene by showcasing local talent. “We’re committed to bringing live music to Wynwood Art Walk, and much like our passion for all things local, we intend to give Miami musicians a platform to promote their music,” said Tony Albelo, partner of SWARM.

Wynwood Art Walk will include a main stage where several bands will be scheduled to perform starting at 6:00 p.m. On Saturday, August 13, SWARM is hosting four local bands, including the sun-drenched, garage rock headliners SunGhosts and their debut album release party. The album was recorded at Cutting Cane Studios in South Florida and was produced by two-time Grammy-winning producer Joel Someillán. Although the album is set for worldwide release (iTunes, Amazon, etc.) on August 23, eager fans will get to pre-purchase it at Wynwood Art Walk, ten days before its official launch. This installment of Wynwood Art Walk will also feature live music sets by Alexander Di Leo, KIDS, and Magic City Hippies. For info on pre-ordering SunGhosts’ new album, follow them on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/sunghostsofficial.

It’s where locals get meet local artisans eager to showcase and sell their craft. It’s the place to satisfy that craving for five-star food trucks, and now, it’s the place to get up close and personal with Miami musicians who deserve to be center stage.
