MANO Fine Art presents an extraordinary visual interplay of art and language. The exhibition entitled “Part of A Conversation” features contemporary works by twelve Miami-based artists. The works are as individual as the artists themselves with the common denominator being the combination of text and imagery to create provocative insightful and playful visual dialogues with the viewer. Passages of text, letter forms and remarkable gestural strokes that suggest writing yet remain illegible engage the viewer to “read” the artworks. While other works focus on repetitive patterns, such as linear rows and geometric shapes. Mostly, however, “reading” the artwork encourages viewers to be part of a conversation.

The evening will feature music for electric and acoustic guitars, violin, saxophone, narration and, of course, a copious amount of electronics. The works will showcase various experimental practices in electronic music. While some musicians will explore large sonic trance-like washes, others will investigate the power of pitch and rhythmic repetitions as contrasted with the principles of indeterminacy. If you are curious about learning how symbiosis and diversion manifest themselves in music and how live electronics can facilitate an inner journey, this is an event for you.

Weather Day includes a pregame presentation by the CBS 4 Weather Team about various weather related topics and affects to the climate in South Florida. The presentation is geared towards 3rd – 8th grade students and follows the Sunshine State Standards.

The month of educational fun continues on May 9 when the Marlins host one of the final three Marlins Ayudan School Partnership Program (MASPP) Career Workshops. The MASPP Career Workshop Series is a unique educational opportunity designed specifically for students of Miami Senior High School and TERRA Environmental Research Institute. The goal of the program is to offer students a real-world glimpse at a variety of disciplines as they begin the path toward their future career. Each workshop features presentations, panel discussions, a tour of Marlins Park, as well as small group breakout sessions. The topics covered in the remaining workshops are as follows: May 9 – Finance, Human Resources, Legal and Risk Management, May 16 – Social Media, Community Outreach/Foundation, Public Relations and Broadcasting, and May 23 – Grounds, Facilities/Events, Baseball Operations, and Player Development. Held select Thursdays at Marlins Park, the workshops are designed and hosted by the Marlins Ayudan teams aligned with Miami Senior High and TERRA.

On May 14 the Marlins will host the first of eight MASPP Nights. Each night the Marlins will celebrate and showcase the educational partnership with a different MASPP school.

On May 15 the Marlins will begin visits to the 17 winning classrooms of the Marlins Think Tank sweepstakes.

Throughout the lessons, students read about baseball, learn about Miami, and even hear from some current Miami Marlins players! During Think Tank Week, Marlins players, coaches, broadcasters and Manager will visit classrooms that utilized the program. The students and teacher will demonstrate to the Marlins personnel what they learned through the program, which is followed by a Q&A session and ends with an autograph session for the students. Think Tank visits will continue on May 17, 20 and 21.

On May 18 the Marlins will host the MASPP Teacher Appreciation Night. The Marlins will provide tickets to each school for their teachers to come and enjoy the game together. Each school is also receiving VIP passes for the postgame concert.

The dinner party will feature live music and a DJ spinning favorites from present day to the prohibition era, Gatsby inspired entertainers & old model cars from the time period parked out front of the restaurant.

Spirits were confined to the speakeasies during the Roaring 20’s but with Gatsby in charge…and Villa Azur mixologists in full-force, the drinks will be flowing all night! In addition to our regular cocktail menu we will be serving favorites from the decade such as the Mint Julep & Gin Martini.

The action-packed weekend includes the Publix Health and Fitness Expo, as well as a weekend kick-off party and a post-race awards ceremony and after-party at the famous E.R. Bradley’s Saloon on the waterfront.

“West Palm Beach is the ideal backdrop for a triathlon, with beautiful roads, the Intracoastal Waterway and the tremendous support from the City and Palm Beach County,” said Steve Tebon, CEO of Game On Sports Marketing. “We look forward to welcoming regional, national and international athletes to beautiful South Florida for the 2013 endurance event.”

Once inside, you will quickly be drawn to the open-air kitchen where Michelin-starred Chef Steven Rojas runs the show. The menu fuses together French & Spanish cooking techniques, using only the best ingredients. Downstairs you will find George’s Kitchen, while The Loft is located upstairs.

For this event, guests will enjoy 1 drink (glass of Champagne, well cocktail or soda) and a selection of complimentary hors d’oeuvres. Cost is $10 in advance or $15 at the door.

Dear Company or Individuals

Posh Production and Events LLC in conjunction with Friends Forever Rescue Inc. which is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that was founded in 2001 with the mission to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome homeless and unwanted dogs in need of help. Friends Forever rescue relies on volunteers to foster and transport the dogs. The dogs are featured on Petfinder.com and each Saturday the rescue brings the dogs to Petsmart in the Falls, S. Miami area for adoption from 10-4pm.

Currently, the Friends Forever Shelter was deemed not livable due to the amount of mold found in the building. Ms. Dee Smith, the founder is looking at options from several resources in finding temporary housing for her dogs. The Friends Forever Inc., has acquired five acres of land to build a new shelter, from a generous donor. Their goal is to raise from this event $20,000.00 to begin the process of breaking ground. Posh Production and Events is committed, in this charity and your support is greatly needed for this event

Each year, Posh Production and Events holds an event in order to benefit a non-profit organization. This year we are hosting an event called 1st Annual Posh for Paws.

BEYOND THE INVISIBLE
From May 20 to July 20, 2013
Artist Talk and Reception: July 20, 6-9pm
Venue: Art Parks at Young Circle Gallery,
Hollywood Blvd and US1, Hollywood, FL

“BEYOND THE INVISIBLE”, the art exhibition of Carla Fache’s new works, investigates the transformative effects of color, expanded balance expectations of the painted medium, and the artist’s unique process.

Fache’s intention to interpretate the spaces between the material and the emptiness; making visible the unconsciousness of physics through exploring the subconscious links that connects balance, brings to life her new series of work which unveils hidden dimensions through her paintings.

In this new aggressive line of work, Fache delves further into her studio practice by creating a balance proposal beyond the frontiers of the canvas, interplaying between color and material; and by layering colors that evoke the acceleration of matter across a surface, light through space, and action over time in ways that blur conventional definitions of painting.

Fache’s new paintings are charged with an intuitive spontaneity; the intensity of her colors and her experimental approach to process are linked in her search for the interconnection between the concept of space and its viewer, building perspectives through the exploration of balance, space and spontaneous geometrics. Which, guided by the command of light and vibration, boost paradoxical color effects.

“These new paintings are all about exploring the color balance, the intuitive and all the in between”, explains Fache.

Her work and Bio may be viewed at www.carlafache.com

BEYOND THE INVISIBLE Art Exhibition runs from May 20 to July 20, 2013. Artist talk and reception is on July 20. The public is invited to visit the Arts Park at Young Circle Gallery to view her works, Monday to Saturday from 12pm to 6 p.m. For more information contact Arts Park Gallery at 954.921.3500

Sound Theory Live to Relaunch on Wynwood Radio May 10

Award-winning music program celebrates return at The Stage Miami

Miami, FL – May 1, 2013 – After four years of broadcasting on local jazz station WDNA, the musical performance and interview program Sound Theory Live has found a new home: Wynwood Radio.

“We’re excited about resuming Sound Theory Live with our new media partners Wynwood Radio and look forward to bringing the global listening public even more compelling programming and music,” says founder and host Carlos F. Garcia, who also owns the show’s brick and mortar venue, The Stage Miami. “We invite everyone to celebrate with us at The Stage on Friday, May 10th, 2013 beginning at 7 p.m. for an extended two-hour show or listen in on the web. Following the show, Wynwood Radio will continue to stream live from The Stage with acts and DJs throughout the night.”

Adds Wynwood Radio’s Vice President and Director Vicente Solis: “We are delighted to be Sound Theory Live’s new home and media partners. Carlos and his team have many positive liaisons with the different Miami musical scenes. We believe that his show, in an online radio environment, can thrive, become more agile, fun and can also enhance the opportunity for community expansion that Wynwood Radio nurtures as part of its DNA.”

The move to web won’t change the show format, which according to the program website is “geared towards promoting the great local musicians by showcasing their talents live on the radio.” It will allow for greater content freedom and a looser format not beholden to news updates and public service announcements. Garcia adds: “The show expects to have increased flexibility both in programming and in location. We hope to bring the show to venues and events all over South Florida to help continue moving the Miami music scene forward!”

Once again the show will feature Garcia, voted Miami New Times’ “Best FM Radio Personality” in 2010, as the host, with the assistance of co-hosts Sasha Torres, co-owner of The Stage, venue booking agent Eric Garcia and show veteran, Andrea Alarcon.

Slated to play live and be interviewed on the maiden Wynwood Radio webcast are: Afrobeta, Electric Piquete, Brendan O’Hara, Radioboxer, Humbert, The Problem Kids, Bachaco as well as veteran Miami DJs DJ Sire Esq., DJ Manuvers and many more. There are some surprise guests in store as well. The festivities and webcast commence May 10 at 7 p.m., during the show’s usual slot and time, and will continue through 9 p.m. Subsequently, Sound Theory Live will assume it’s regularly scheduled time on Wynwood Radio and be webcast from locations across South Florida and re-aired on Sunday afternoons, and potentially during other days and times.

Admission to the event at The Stage is free until 11 p.m. and $5 thereafter; enjoy 2-for-1 happy hour drink specials from 6 to 9 p.m. and other specials throughout the night. You can listen live on the web by navigating to www.wynwoodradio.com.

The Peter London Global Dance Company, Miami’s newest multicultural dance troupe, heats up the Carnival Studio Theater with a two-night stint featuring a choreographic sampler of six new works entitled “Spring Nights at the Arsht Center.” London’s choreography has received critical acclaim at AILEY’S Summer SIZZLER at the City Corp Theater in New York, NWSA performances at the Gusman Theater, The Colony Theater, South Miami-Dade Cultural Center and at the International Dance Festival in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

A dance visionary and veteran performer with the Martha Graham and José Limon dance companies, Peter London is now a dance professor at Miami-Dade College / New World School of the Arts and the Founder and Artistic Director of The Peter London Global Dance Company, which he created to establish a home-grown, world-class contemporary dance organization that promotes South Florida’s vibrant arts heritage. Mr. London’s vision was given an invaluable boost when his company received the 2011 Knight Arts Challenge grant award from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and support from The Miami Foundation. “I cannot begin to express how grateful I am to the Arsht Center staff for inviting and hosting my company,” said London. “The dancers are excited about this tremendous opportunity to perform in front of a larger audience in the heart of Miami at one of the most prestigious performing arts centers in the world. The hard work and steadfastness of the PLGDC dancers take us to new heights and we all feel blessed to showcase our talent to new audiences each time,” he continued.

Miami Marlins’ Logan Morrison announces launch of ‘ Project Lomo” 5/1/13

Miami Marlins outfielder Logan Morrison has officially launched his own philanthropic campaign entitled “Project LoMo.” In partnership with the American Lung Association (ALA), “Project LoMo” encourages youth to create their own charitable program or event to help their community become a better place and/or support a cause that is important to them. Inspired by the philanthropic work Morrison has done with the ALA over the past several years, the Marlins outfielder is using this campaign as a call-to-action for children to make a positive impact and difference in their communities.

“After my father lost his battle with lung cancer, I felt like it was my responsibility to do everything I could to raise awareness for the disease,” said Morrison. “With this campaign, I want kids to understand that they, too, can make a difference. I want to empower them to start thinking outside-of-the-box and realize that they can spark social change. Young fans who carry out a project will also generate contributions for the American Lung Association. It’s a great campaign and I’m excited to review all the submissions.”

Morrison will officially launch the campaign on Wednesday, May 1 at Miami Senior High School, where he and his mother will reveal the contest details to students at 2:45 PM ET.

Individuals or teams have until August 1, 2013 to complete their initiative and communicate (via video, e-mail, or letter) to Morrison what they accomplished and learned. Each authentic submission will receive an autographed photo, an officially-licensed t-shirt jersey, and will also result in a $100 donation to the American Lung Association on behalf of the LoMo Lung Fund.

Additionally, “Project LoMo” will recognize five individuals or teams who submit particularly compelling projects aligned with the goals of the campaign. Each leader and a guest from the five winning projects will receive a trip to Miami, all-access to a 2013 Marlins home game, the opportunity to throw out the ceremonial first pitch, a meet-and-greet with Morrison and some of his Marlins teammates, and participation in a group video with Morrison to promote the ALA. Winning project individuals/teams will also receive a $1,000 cash prize.

The “Project LoMo” campaign is Morrison’s second major initiative aimed at promoting awareness and raising money for lung cancer research. “LoMo Camp for a Cure,” Morrison’s annual fundraising baseball clinic, takes place in Delray Beach, FL every January. To date, Morrison has raised over $200,000 for the ALA. For more information on “Project LoMo” please visit http://projectlomo.mlblogs.com/.

“New Beginnings” by Wendy White, a Play by the Children, for the Children premieres at ArtServe on Saturday, May 11, 2013 at 8:00 p.m.

New Light Theatre is proud to present “New Beginnings”, an original play written and developed by the children residing at the Shepherds Way/HOPE South Florida homeless shelter. The children will showcase their acting and singing talents, as they remind the audience that art transcends any circumstance.

“New Beginnings” will be performed by the children and will be accompanied by the New Light Players – Jessica Pusceddu, Gema Calero and Gabriel Villasmil. Original art by the children will be on exhibit and a film produced by Anais Dominguez portraying the making of “New Beginnings” will be featured.

Wendy White, President of the New Light Foundation, Inc, directs and produces this labor of love as a result of a dream to help children learn to express themselves via the medium of playwrighting. Wendy has been working year-round at the shelter in the children’s after school program, “ACES” (After-school – Art – Academics- Collaborations for Educational Success), and will ultimately present a documentary which shares the children’s hopes and dreams through their eyes.

“I am deeply honored to help the children who participate in the ACES program and reside at the homeless shelter how to express and share their stories – the program’s goal is to give the children hope by being heard and encouraged through their circumstances – what results is a creative way to have fun and joy through the arts,” states Wendy, also a Playwright and Artist.

Donations are accepted for the children and their families residing at Shepherd’s Way/HOPE South Florida. Tickets are $12 and can be purchased online at: www.newlightgallery.org or over the phone at: 954.829.0638.

“If you reach for the stars, all you get are the stars. But we’ve found a whole new spin. If you reach for the heavens, you get the stars thrown in.” —Mary Poppins

Discover and trust your natural intuitive gifts and inner guidance for more satisfaction and joy. That’s the topic of a dynamic, interactive talk being presented by international lecturers Estelle Small and Patrick Kilhenny of the non-profit, educational organization, IPM (Inner Peace Movement) International.
Using this sixth sense comes in handy, from situations that require major decisions or simply knowing when to pop a dish out of the oven. Everyone is psychic and being sharply attuned to it helps life flow more smoothly. People gain trust, self-confidence and inner security when they start tapping into their psychic part. The lecture will also dip into an understanding about using inner guidance, or guardian angels, that help people with their unique missions in life.
This is an interactive lecture. Participants can even try a technique on using their intuition, and most are able to do it on the first try. Estelle Small and Patrick Kilhenny have been presenting on this topic for many years in North America and Europe. Their quest for understanding their sixth sense comes out of their own experiences.

Barezzito South Beach will open its entrance in April 26, 2013 as an entertaining blend of sushi, bar and music elements. The restaurant’s fuse of Japanese cuisine, Latin touch and tropical influences paired with fresh ingredients and mixology, sparks an influential punch on the palate. Architecturally enhanced walls and ceilings, creative furniture design with pops of color and sleek flooring at Barezzito South Beach will turn into a party every night. Barezzito was originally conceptualized in Leon, Mexico in 2003 and has since become a staple in being recognized as refined, comfortable, versatile, innovative, contemporary, unique and delicious. End of March, the Miami Beach location will be the 13th Barezzito establishment, first in the United States, setting a new standard in dining and partying never before seen or felt in the United States.

Positioned in the new Boulan Shops at Collins Park, on the legendary Collins Avenue in South Beach Miami, FL across from the Setai Hotel & Residences. The doors will always be open for both locals and visitors alike in this unrestrained 4,200 sq. ft. of space. Whether selecting from an outdoor or indoor ambiance, anyone can appreciate the prominent exterior deco structure, interior artistic lighting of changeable colors, warm hand crafted décor and Ébano finished floors of Barezzito South Beach.

Hailing from Mexico, Grupo Impulza has done it again, as this will be the group’s 50th establishment opened in ten years and their first in the United States. Omar Quesada and Oscar Webber own Grupo Impulza, and have chosen Miami’s local, Antar Sosa, to lead the successful string of restaurants into South Beach. Sosa has ten years of service industry experience and anticipates opening future Barezzitos’ in South Florida and nationally with other concepts.

“Barezzito will be so different than what is going on here in South Beach. There are very little customer value positioned restaurants or places with amazing entertainment, along with enjoyable food too. Placing our focus on sushi and tapas, along with having live music and DJs every day of the week, with a well-priced menu, there will always be something happening where you know you can enjoy all aspects, all together. Happy hours, live entertainment and nightly parties will be our focus as there is also an advantage to providing this in our market and niche area.”

Barezzito South Beach will integrate sushi to sashimi, bottles to cocktails, DJ to live music and tapas and more, Barezzito South Beach is projected to be a distinguished entertainment based restaurant venue open late for a salubrious taste.

Adora’s repertoire of lip-sycned interpretations include a variety of music from Yma Sumac to Opera, Edith Piaf to La Lupe.
In 2008, de la Torre formed ‘Homo-Sapiens (Art for evolution) with long-time collaborator David Rohn; their first project Silencio, involved an unspoken performance Piece about a Guard and Muslim inmate of a Gitmo style Detention Camp who fall in love. They have since produced a number of performance and video and photographic works that have been produced and exhibited in Germany, Israel and the USA.

ALEXIS TRIGOURA

Born in 1971 and raised in Regla, Cuba, Alexis Trigoura experienced the quintessential Cuban childhood. His family’s name was well-known throughout Cuba due to their popular and successful butcher shop. In 1980, however, due to the progressively intense demands of Castro’s regime, Alexis and his family were compelled to leave their beautiful homeland. Alexis, just ten at the time, joined his father, mother and two brothers on the 90-mile pilgrimage to U.S. shores via the Mariel Boat Lift.
Alexis learned of his love of painting early in life, at the age of three. The media he enjoyed most was watercolor but he later discovered charcoal, oil, acrylic and pastels. He didn’t stop there. Sculpture inspired him as well and, with his resourceful imagination, Alexis created sculptures with whatever materials he could find.
It wasn’t until his adult years – after being a flight attendant and traveling around the world – that Alexis realized no other place captured the beauty and sincerity of Cuba. An intense desire to return home gave him the courage to visit and photograph the island he left behind 24 years earlier. Alexis’ photographs capture memories of his colorful childhood and the love of an island he once called home.

From bouncing balls and playing inside the piano, to preparations, vocals, and electronics, each piece in the program showcases a distinctive sonic world that can emerge from the piano.” A. Hsu

Ray Elman Exhibition of Portraits at Williams McCall Gallery 4/26/13

Ray Elman Exhibition of Portraits at Williams McCall Gallery

Elman_v3a-frontWilliams McCall Gallery
110 Washington Avenue, CU-3,
Miami Beach, Florida 33139
Webpage Link

The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery has acquired several large scale Elman portraits. Most recently, it acquired Elman’s portraits of Pulitzer Prize recipient Jhumpa Lahiri and U.S. Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky. These acquisitions join Elman’s portraits of Pulitzer Prize recipients Alan Dugan and Stanley Kunitz in the museum’s permanent collection. Elman’s 1991 portrait of poet Stanley Kunitz standing in his beloved garden following its devastation by Hurricane Bob is included in a current exhibition at the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery titled Poetic Likeness: Modern American Poets. That exhibition continues until April 28, 2013.

Elman has made over 200 paintings in this series of notable talents such as Norman Mailer, Robert Motherwell, Douglas Huebler, Justin Kaplan, Joel Meyerowitz, Annie Dillard, Mark Strand, Sebastian Junger, Alec Wilkinson, E.J. Kahn, Jr., Varujan Boghosian, Al Jaffee, Lee Falk, Elise Asher, Anne Bernays, and Ruth Reichl. The dimensions of most works are either 60 x 43 inches or 40 x 30 inches.

Elman has maintained a studio on the tip of Cape Cod in the Provincetown Art Colony since 1970. In 1989, after a half-lifetime of making only abstract art, he started portraying the Provincetown Art community at leisure – what people do when they are not working – the fabric of life that draws people back every year. Now a full-time Miami Beach resident, Elman has turned his focus to portraying the people and culture of Miami.

The Hangar Gallery, Wynwood will host local photographer, Anthony Jordon, Jr.‘s exhibition “Living & Loving 2: A Continued Celebration of Life”. This exhibit is a follow up tribute to Anthony’s solo show “Living & Loving: Celebrating our Comfort”, which raised funds for the 2010 Miami AIDSWalk.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the photos will be donated to Care Resources to fund their efforts in continuing their existing programs in support of HIV/AIDS outreach in South Florida.

Additionally, The Hangar Gallery has also offered to donate 10% of any purchases made on the evening of the exhibition.

As a self taught photographer, Anthony Jordon’s vision is to continually see what can be shot and shown through his lens for everyone’s enjoyment, not just his own.

He’s been shooting for several years throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties.

Benefiting AIDSWalk Miami with this show, Anthony has also provided various photographic works to support other local non-profits and national charities such as Care Resource, the Susan G. Koman Race for the Cure, and the Florida Breast Cancer Foundation.

Anthony’s works have earned him numerous recognitions such as:

1st place-Zone 3 during 2009′s Sleepless Nights photomarathon;

1st Place in the People Category of the Carnival Cruise Lines 2010 photo contest;

Featured Photographer and Best Black & White Photo of Best Photo Yet’s blog in September-October 2010.

Anthony was also recently chosen as an Instagram Ambassador and to provide social media content for Scope Miami and the Heineken Mural Project, both during Art Basel 2012.
Further works of Anthony’s can be viewed at http://antjphotog.500px.com/
