North Miami Beach, Fl. March 11th – April 8th 2017 – On Saturday, March 11th at 6:30 pm, the North Miami Beach Library will don its culture and gala persona to host its first art exhibit. The opening exhibit will highlight the works of 18 contemporary artists whose bold and imposing pieces celebrate and honor the literary works of Maya Angelou, award winning author, poet, dancer, inspirational speaker and women’s advocate. The show will be on display through April 8th, 2017.

Untold Stories, an exhibit that highlights the female figure, historical transitions, societal opposition, silence, stories, hope and renewed vision, is sure to delight the senses of art aficionados and newbies alike. The exhibit features the works of established artist and muralist Freddy Villamil, mixed media artist and painter Alicia M. Vallejo and colorful bucolic scenes by renowned Sophia LaCroix among the many fantastic presenters. The exhibit was curated to present the best our Southeast Florida Community has to offer.

The opening reception for Untold Stories will take place on Saturday, March 11th at 6:30 pm and open the doors of NMB to a display that will accentuate the International Women’s Day/ Month celebration. The stage will be set with art in various formats including installations and sculptures. The artists will be on-hand to share their stories and connections while the nationally known BG Harmonies will deliver their musical talent to attendees. Local author, journalist, mixed media artist and winner of the 2016 Latin Book Award, Vanessa Garcia will launch the evening celebration. Inspirational and Empowerment speaker and author Kathy Andersen and Illustrator and author Alexandra Barbot will also be on-hand to make this a momentous event. Appetizers will be provided and a cash bar will be available.

NMB Library observation of IWD has been celebrating accomplishments and energizing women of all ages to dream and achieve rather than allowing societal constraints for the past three years. As a member of the Institute of Museums and Libraries, NMB library is elated to present an occasion of powerful cultural significance to the North Miami Beach Community. “I’ve always been inspired by the stories of those who are able to rise above adversity” said, Edenia M. Hernández, NMB Library manager. “Maya Angelou went without speaking for five years after a hideous abuse, later she arose and told her stories.” This exhibit will deliver a formidable message of strength, resiliency and resourcefulness that leads to triumph. It will elevate the spirit through the arts and resonate with those who are energized to tell their stories freely, those conflicted by the past, struggling in the present or someone who appreciates the challenges faced. We can all RISE above our circumstances and seek a life as intended, filled with hope, dreams and accomplishments for the future. Artistic expression is a healthy way to articulate our emotions. “Above all this event should inspire us to tell our stories that we may pass on the hope that has been placed in us.”

Tarek Abdallah is widely regarded as one of the world’s best players of the oud. He has a Master’s degree in Musicology from the University Lumière Lyon in France and runs regular oud workshops in various notable educational institutions around the world.

When Ballaké Sissoko & Vincent Segal released their first collaborative album, Chamber Music in 2011, they caught the music world by surprise. Everything about this duo was unexpected: the Malian master of the traditional harp, or kora; the French cellist with the unlikely background in trip-hop; and the elegant, soulful music they made together. After years of touring together Sissoko and Segal have created their own hybrid tradition, one that draws on the ancient well of West African troubadour songs, the rich heritage of Baroque music, and an elusive but somehow clearly modern sensibility.

Axis of Love is a three-part concert series presented by The Rhythm Foundation with major support from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Tickets are $20 for individual concerts in advance, $50 for a three-concert series.

The band is formed by several of Miami’s top Brazilian musicians including bassist and composer Diogo Brown, guitarist Cezar Santana and singer Mari Mac. They have performed with top Brazilian artists like Vanessa da Mata, and also James Brown’s legendary sax player Pee Wee Ellis. Their irresistible groove-fueled sound is influenced by top Brazilian and US funk and artists, including Jorge Ben Jor, Earth, Wind & Fire, Tim Maia and Seu Jorge, among others.

Students of the Guitars Over Guns program, in response to the tragic loss of Jakyri Fleurimar (age 15), are releasing a remake music video of Wiz Khalifa’s hit ‘See You Again’, March 2nd, 2017 at Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM).

Replacing verses of the original song with their own lyrics, GOGO students such as Xavier Gustave, cousin of Fleurimar, had the opportunity to express themselves in honor of Fleurimar’s memory and the many others lost to senseless gun violence. The song and video remake, which involved more than 80 Miami-Dade County Public School students, is a community call-to-action; a platform for those who can still speak up, want to be heard and want to make a difference.

This special screening, hosted by Local 10 Anchor Neki Mohan, will be the first public showing of this project, promising to engage the community in conversation surrounding solution-based actions. As part of the evening’s program, messages of encouragement will be delivered by Miami-Dade County Public Schools Superintendent Alberto Carvalho (via video), WSVN 7 Reporter Ann Keil and Commander Francisco Fernandez of the City of Miami Police Department.

Students spent months writing, rehearsing and editing this project, which was recorded at Noisematch Recording Studio in Wynwood, and filmed at North Miami Middle School with a special appearance by members of the North Miami Police Department.

Come out and show your support!

Karen M’Closkey, a founding partner of PEG office of landscape + architecture, is a licensed landscape architect in the States of Pennsylvania, California and Michigan. She has over ten years of experience working on a variety of award-winning landscapes.

Karen is an Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania. She teaches core design studios, advanced option studios, and contemporary theories of landscape architecture. Her advanced options studios explore techniques for working with repetition, ornamentation and surface modulation as a means to produce new forms of topography. Her book titled Unearthed: the Landscapes of Hargreaves Associates (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2013) utilizes a selection of work by this highly regarded landscape architecture practice as a vehicle by which to gauge recent disciplinary trends. She received a research grant and publication grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts and The David R. Coffin Publication Grant from the Foundation for Landscape Studies.

Other writings include “Synthetic Patterns: Fabricating Landscapes in the Age of Green”(Journal of Landscape Architecture, Spring 2013), “Not Garden” in VIA: Dirt (Cambridge: MIT Press, 2011), “Criticality in Landscape Architecture: Origins in 19th-century American practices, in Modernism and Landscape Architecture, 1890-1940” (Washington D.C.: National Gallery Center for Advanced Studies in the Visual Arts, forthcoming 2013), among others. Her focus considers the use of design techniques and the environmental values they manifest in both Modern-era and contemporary landscape designs. Her forthcoming book (co-authored with Keith VanDerSys), entitled Dynamic Patterns: Visualizing Landscapes in a Digital Age (Routledge Press), situates the emerging expressions of pattern in landscape architecture.

Karen received a Masters in Landscape Architecture with distinction from Harvard University and a Bachelor of Architecture with distinction from the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc).

Join us in celebrating the fourth year of the PAMM Fund for African American Art. Enjoy performances by Olujimi Dance Theater and Aja Monet, announcement of new acquisitions and more.

The evening will showcase “Kahina: A Tangled Root,” a performance by Olujimi Dance Theater. The piece is inspired by North African queen, warrior, and religious leader, Dihya Kahina, who lived during the seventh century. The work generates a conscious awareness and expanded knowledge of self and collective identity of the Black Female Body. The performance will “un-earth’ significant historical, economical, philosophical, and cultural contributions of the Black Female Body utilizing ancestral memory, story, song, text, collective memory, and moving images with an exploration of landscape, environment, and the metaphysical body. This original work is a story of displacement, migration, reciprocity, sustainability, and exile to freedom.

In addition, guests will enjoy poetry by Aja Monet, the youngest individual to win the legendary Nuyorican Poet’s Café Grand Slam title.

The Fourth Annual Reception for the PAMM Fund for African American Art presented by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation with additional support from Kroma. Support from d’Ussé Cognac is also gratefully acknowledged.

In addition to his recordings, he has performed on a worldwide stage that has taken him to prestigious international festivals and halls in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, as well as the 2012 Olympics in London. At home, he has toured nationally at festivals and top venues, including New York’s Lincoln Center and D.C.’s Kennedy Center. He has received numerous awards, including the New York Nightlife Award for “Outstanding Jazz Vocalist” (which he won three times), the Backstage Bistro Award for “Ongoing Achievement in Jazz,” the Harlem Speaks “Jazz Museum of Harlem Award,” and the DownBeat Critic’s Poll Award for “Rising Star Vocalist.”

The afternoon will open with a performance by Dr Ed Calle’s student jazz ensemble, and there will be a farmer’s market as well hosted by The Market Company.

South Florida JAZZ, the area’s premier modern jazz organization, continues its 25th Anniversary celebration by presenting world-renowned vibraphonist Gary Burton

in a career farewell concert with long-term collaborator, pianist Makoto Ozone. The performance will take place on Saturday, March 4, 2017 at 8:00 p.m. in the Rose

& Alfred Miniaci Performing Arts Center on the Nova Southeastern University campus, 3100 Ray Ferrero Jr Blvd, Davie 33314. Tickets are $40 ($10 for students under

age 25 with valid I.D.) and can be purchased from Ticketmaster either online via http://www.southfloridajazz.org or by calling 954-462-0222.

Gary Burton is the most important vibraphonist of the modern era. Largely self-taught, he is a major innovator on his instrument because of his conception and

mastery of an extraordinary and four-mallet technique that continues to elude most practitioners. His accomplishments resulted in seven Grammy Awards. He has

been voted Best Vibraphonist innumerably in the important trade polls. In 2016, he was awarded a richly-deserved Fellowship from the National Endowment for the

Arts as a Jazz Master, an honor given only to luminaries who have advanced the art form.

Makoto Ozone (o-zo-nee) was born into a musical family in Kobe, Japan and began to play organ at age two. At twelve, inspired by Oscar Peterson, he switched to

piano. While classically trained, he strove to become a jazz pianist and met Gary Burton when he came to Berklee School of Music in Boston to study in 1980. He

played a classical solo concert in Carnegie Hall in 1983, the same year that he joined Gary’s jazz band. He stayed in the US until 1989, returning to Japan where he

continued performing works from the classical repertoire with major orchestras to rave reviews – a very rare acceptance of a jazz musician.

In 2013, in commemoration of the 30th anniversary of their debut together, Makoto toured with Gary in Japan for a month. They have now collaborated memorably

for over 33 years. This performance for South Florida JAZZ represents the conclusion, as Gary Burton retires from the profession with a brief tour with his friend Makoto.

He performs, writes and lectures on jazz, and is among a very few current clarinetists to develop an original authentic interpretation of the exciting New Orleans style.

He has been widely acknowledged as an expert in the field of traditional New Orleans jazz, and currently serves as a commissioner of the New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park. He has coordinated, performed in and hosted numerous jazz programs for Jazz at Lincoln Center, several universities and many other organizations. In addition to touring worldwide with his own Original Liberty Jazz Band and other groups at major concert halls and festivals, he has appeared in numerous documentaries, films and interviews. White has performed and/or recorded with noted musicians such as Wynton Marsalis, Lionel Hampton and Marcus Roberts. He has played on numerous highly acclaimed recordings, including his own critically acclaimed Crescent City Serenade and New Years at the Village Vanguard.

Dr. White has been given numerous awards and recognition for his contributions, including the rank of Chevalier of Arts and Letters by the French Government in 1987 and a National Heritage Fellowship Award by the National Endowment of the Arts in 2008.

The afternoon will open with a performance by Dr Ed Calle’s student jazz ensemble, and there will be a farmer’s market as well hosted by The Market Company. Special thanks to our presenting sponsor, the LeRoy Schecter Foundation.

Young Artist Initiative Presents
Complements & Dichotomies
1111 Lincoln Rd #OnLincoln
Friday, February 24th 8:00pm

Young Artist Initiative (YAI) presents Complements & Dichotomies, a design/installation exhibition organized by the Young Artist Initiative in partnership with Lincoln Road’s #OnLincoln series. The #OnLincoln series aims to elevate the destination beyond world-class shopping and dining, to one that is a haven for those seeking art, culture and design.

Young Artist Initiative (YAI) has made it their mission to empower Miami’s emerging artists through conceptually rooted exhibitions and installations designed to foster community engagement and cultural development. The exhibition will feature 20+ emerging designers and artists.

For its next installment, the Young Artist Initiative has decided to evoke the study of the relationship between function and aesthetic in art, architecture, and design through its exhibition, Complements & Dichotomies. All participating artists and designers will be presented with the challenge of interpreting the exhibition’s central thesis: How do aesthetic and functionality converge in the creation of beauty?

Designed by award winning Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron, 1111 Lincoln Road houses world-class shopping and dining as well as the most visually stimulating automotive parking imaginable. Panoramic city, ocean and bay views, soaring 34 foot ceilings, and a dramatic concrete structure serve as the backdrop for our exhibition on the garage’s 7th floor.

The exhibition itself will exist as an experiential art form through its collection of immersive artistic interpretations from a curated group of emerging artists, architects, and designers. We invite you to enjoy and ponder the reflections of Miami’s emerging artists.

To note, free RSVP’s are only valid until 9:30pm EST. Early Bird Tickets & General Admission Tickets guarrantee admission to the Young Artist Initiative. Tickets are non-refundable. Tickets will be available at the door.

Guests must be 21+.

City Theatre, which is committed to new work and its extended family of playwrights locally and nationwide, is very pleased to bring Ayvazian back to Miami for audiences to enjoy the play and performance that developed from those first pages.

City Theatre is happy to be partnering with GableStage for this event. Joe Adler, Producing Artistic Director of the company, has once again generously offered his theatre to audiences who appreciate an evening of new work in its intimate space.

Gary Nader is pleased to present a Fernando Botero Sculpture Exhibit at the Gary Nader Art Centre in Wynwood from Feb. 9 through April 9. The exhibit was curated by Nader to showcase the modern master’s significant contributions to the modern and contemporary art world.

Fernando Botero was born in Medellin, Colombia in 1932. His signature style portrays people and figures in large, exaggerated volume, which can represent political criticism or humor, depending on the piece. He is considered the most recognized and quoted living artist from Latin America. In 1960, Botero took up residence in New York and, in the same year, won the Guggenheim National Prize for Colombia.

Botero’s work has been featured in several solo and group exhibitions at Gary Nader’s galleries. Botero has exhibited his work at the Museum of Modern Art in Copenhagen, the Maillol Museum in Paris, the Palazzo Benezia in Rome, the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, and the National Museum in Bogotá, among others. Botero lives and works in Paris, Monte Carlo, Pietrasanta, and New York.

Carmen Lundy Appearing With The Branford Marsalis Quartet 3/17/17

Carmen Lundy Appearing With The Branford Marsalis Quartet

Miami, Florida 33132

Cost: $45-$125

The 3-time Grammy Award-winning Branford Marsalis Quartet will be joined by guest-vocalist and Grammy Award-winner Kurt Elling in a singular collaboration of musical forces. The tight-knit working band featuring Marsalis on saxophones, Joey Calderazzo on piano, Eric Revis on bass, and Justin Faulkner on drums rarely invites other musicians into the folds of their nearly telepathically cohesive unit, and Elling’s deep jazz vocabulary, technical versatility, and outstanding intonation will enable the band to perform a variety of material in new ways. Opening for the Quartet will be jazz vocalist, composer and Miami native, Carmen Lundy. Hailed by The Evening Standard as “a genuine jazz singer”. Jazz singer, composer and arranger Carmen Lundy hails from Miami, Florida and received her B.M. degree from the University of Miami. In 1978, Lundy moved to NYC, where she worked with numerous Jazz veterans. In 1985, she released her first solo album entitled Good Morning Kiss, which topped the Billboard chart for 23 weeks. She will release her 15th album in February 2017, titled Code Noir. In April 2016, Carmen Lundy was honored with the 2016 Lifetime Achievement in Jazz Award by Black Women In Jazz and The Arts, based in Atlanta, GA. Carmen Lundy’s work as a vocalist and composer has been critically acclaimed by The New York Times, The Village Voice, The Los Angeles Times, Variety, The Washington Post, Jazz Times, Jazziz, Downbeat and Vanity Fair among others, as well as numerous foreign publications.
