for artists….BY ARTISTS Installation #70 will showcase the Mosaic Works of Carlos Alves & JC Carroll along with Swimwear Designer Fab Silberstein.

Here’s a little bit about the artists….

Carlos Alves
Alves kick-started his post-college career with a free flowing tile installation located on the floor and walls of the Art Center South Florida. The project eventually led to commissions by a number of public and private clients in the US, and from London, to Hong Kong.

Alves is now applying his artistry to large public and private artwork projects throughout the US and abroad. Located at The Palm Beach Court House, stands a 16’ Pineapple Sculpture on the Court House lawn as well as 6 tile murals and 10 benches depicting historical illustrations of Delray Beach. At the General Mitchell Airport Concourse “C” Floor, in Milwaukee Wisconsin there are 15 mosaic medallions from 3’to15’in diameter placed throughout a 2000 sq. foot terrazzo floor designed by Carlos. An entry floor at Fire Station #21 in Los Angeles California, and recently completed a Public Art Project at the Video Visitation Center and Palm Beach Sheriffs Office in Palm Beach County, and Verde Garden in Homestead, Fl.

Alves also enjoys projects with children and has accomplished many public artworks working with them. He feels that if his art works for kids then it really works. Impending is: The Dade County Children’s Courthouse. This project involves working with elementary school children to create the tiles. Carlos believes that creating public art requires striking a balance between personal expression and working within the parameters of the project. In his mind the artist needs to create a piece that can be appreciated by a wide range of people.

JC Carroll
Lives and works with her partner/ husband Carlos Alves in Miami, Florida. She is considered one of the original pioneers of South Beaches’ gentrification in the late 1980’s where she opened ART-ACT Performance Gallery. Having studied theater/ set design and fine art at the Wolfson Campus, FIU & interned at Coconut Grove Playhouse and Bellas Artes she opened ART-ACT to provide a space to further explore the burgeoning art scene of the time. ART-ACT brought to Miami Beach new and exciting artists like Tomata Du Plenty, and group shows from NYC’s Rivington School, COLAB, Ringling School & more. The theater concentrated on plays of great significance at the time, many based on Political/Civil/Gay rights and AIDS epidemic awareness holding countless fund raisers for the hopes of a cure. JC designed and created a majority of the set designs for these plays, and performed as well. The same values that went into the shows she produced goes into her visual art.

With the motto that everything and everyone was an art form JC produced / edited ART-ACT TV on WLRN Cable Tap. A 30 min. weekly show highlighting the art scene, local and international, as well as many countless colorful personalities. Upon returning to Miami she produced & edited “Live Wire” the off spring of Andrew Delaplaines’ Wire Magazine.

Fab Silberstein
A graduate of Miami International University of Art and Design . Fab Silberstein is on the rise to become one of the top swimwear designers of the near future. Her company La Belle Rebelle puts style in style as her Avant Garde spirit is showcased.

[Description]

The objective of ‘for artists..BY ARTISTS’ (www.facebook.com/forartistBYARTISTS) is to create a social colony for artists from all disciplines of the arts. We present a unique opportunity for painters, photographers, designers, sculptors and videographers to exhibit their works in a Large Digital Format environment. Selected artists gain access to utilize the technology of Haven and present their art in a dynamic presentation.

INSTALLATION # 69

LAELANIE LARACH www.laelanielarach.com

Laelanie Larach Nieves, a self-taught artist who at 15 made her first masterpiece ( Mysterious Forrest),was born in San Pedro Sula, Honduras.As the years went by,she began changing her style of painting and opted to fuse two of her passions, photography with abstract painting and the surreal style.

Each of her works has a different concept, but she predominantly uses bright colors, several textures and other techniques. Her inspiration for her work comes from different sources. It may be the open spaces, a sea breeze, or a profund silent that carries different levels of consciousness with a limitless reality; all is tranferred onto a canvas and all in done for the love of art.

Edge Zones presents the second annual Miami Performance International Festival from June 1– 30, 2013. M/P ‘13 is an exciting four-week program of performance art accompanied by video screenings, talks and workshops that culminate in an intense 4-day event. The festival is a tremendous opportunity for the public to come face-to-face with the breadth and depth of performance art and offers visceral and challenging performance works by renowned, mid-career and emerging artists from 19 countries, as well as more than 40 national and local artists. This annual event provides a look at the creative process across a range of media, and presents cross-disciplinary, collaborative work that speaks to the high level of innovation, critical thinking, and social engagement in Miami. Events are free but availability is limited.

In celebration of Miami-Dade’s diverse art scene, works will be showcased by over 35 international artists across the city in a range of sites, including: the Miami Beach Botanical Gardens and at Edge Zones Projects at the Miami Design District.

Miami Performance International Festival ‘13 is a much-needed networking platform for the art community and brings together the most important curators, artists and arts organizations from Latin America, the Caribbean and around the world.

Curated by Charo Oquet, Miami; Eliu Almonte, Dominican Republic; Pancho Lopez, Mexico, Miami will be immersed in the participation of 70 international and local artists. Unlike theater and dance, all MP ‘13 performances have no designated areas nor are they presented on a stage, but rather on the floor, dissolving the boundary between the artists and viewers. 

Artists from the UK, Austria, USA, Dominican Republic, Argentina, Portugal, Mexico, Spain, Italy, Cuba, Panama, Canada, Colombia, France, Chile, Poland and Brazil.  This dialogue will continue throughout the year on Internet platforms through the Edge Zones and Miami Performance International Festival web portal (http://www.edgezones.org) and online blogs.

Curated by Ombretta Agro’ Andruff, Unpredictable Patterns of Behavior presents 12 artists, architects and composers that relate to patterns in very unique and distinctive ways. Whether they extrapolate natural patterns and integrate them in their art-making processes, or play with geometrical patterns, or yet create their own patterns inspired by existing man-made landscapes or by invented systems, they all offer us the opportunity to go beyond the pure aesthetic enjoyment of the artworks featured in the galleries, and reflect upon the patterns that served as their inspirations. This exhibition is a sequel to Agro’ Andruff’s 2012 New York exhibition, “(Un) Folding Patterns.”  The New York show focused on the relationship between mathematics and the visual arts. This sequel explores how creative minds interpret patterns across the artistic disciplines.

Memorial Weekend is here… almost!
Miami Beach locals leave South Beach for Urban Week… We face it ! How? By presenting designer swimwear line, Adoro by Maytee Martinez with camouflage cover-ups, war accessories and attitude.

Is this a typical fashion show? No it’s not.. it’s a concept show, with a different and fun theme for all. How? Models will be judged as they walk and how they walk and attitude is everything. This is NOT a pretty girl show with flowy dresses. This is a battle– a battle against the world with style and determination. Professional photographers will be capturing all the snapshots of the battle scene as it happens.
Is this a model competition? No, it’s also a styling competition. Watch local upcoming stylists battle Stephanie from Taste by Stephanie Guerra, the warrior. She is an established New York and South Florida stylist battling with the same bare campground rules provided to all parties. Each stylist will be given 2 hours, 3 models, camp fabric, nets, scissors and a staple gun. It is up to them to create down to the final countdown the wining look as they compete for the Memorial Weekend stylist award.

So is this a hotel fashion show? NO! Its an art expression show capturing the essence of the weekend, and come see a real show as we take the fashion show to a different level. Models WILL walk in the middle of the streets, where all the Urban street action takes place.

Is this all ? Please come join the “Party at Cha Cha Roster” as DJ’s start at 3 pm til sunrise and let the place light up with fashion wars, drinks and excitement.

Ticket Price: $30-85, Group Rates Available

Shaping Sound, the new, contemporary dance company forged by Emmy-nominated choreographer and “So You Think You Can Dance” superstar, Travis Wall, is bringing its first live national dance tour to Miami this summer with a two-day performance at the Colony Theater in South Beach, Wednesday, June 12th and Thursday, June 13th at 8PM. Travis will be joined by fellow dance industry visionaries, Nick Lazzarini (SYTYCD Season 1 Winner), Teddy Forance, and Kyle Robinson, as they lead a dynamic troupe of contemporary dancers through an explosive performance of movement, speed, physical strength, and pure passion. This is the first time a company has been created by and for contestants from the reality dance competition show.

This is the first time a company has been created by and for contestants from the reality dance competition show. The company includes LA’s finest dancers, who have also been featured on SYTYCD and “Dancing With The Stars” and performed with Adele, Florence & The Machine, Kelly Clarkson, Usher, Eminem, Drake, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Julianne Hough, Macy’s Stars of Dance, the Academy Awards, MTV Video Music Awards and more.

Today, every  major  TV network has a dance reality television show with a unique angle: from contestants competing weekly in front of a live audience, to behind-the-scenes looks at the lives of commercial dancers trying to make the cut, to “celebrities” paired with professionals fox-trotting their way across the stage.

The trend caught on after Fox premiered So You Think You Can Dance in July 2005 and the show reached huge viewership. Travis Wall is responsible for making dance an exciting and accessible art for both dance and non-dance audiences. For that reason, he founded Shaping Sound with his three best friends to create opportunities for contemporary dancers. The creation of Shaping Sound was chronicled on Oxygen’s hit show “All The Right Moves”.

Fourteen Years Strong… an amazing week… a great cause.

Aqua Girl® traces its beginnings to the year 1999. That year, Alison Burgos and NYC’s legendary women’s producer, Shescape, gathered a committee of like-minded women from around South Florida to produce an exciting one-night event to benefit breast cancer. The event, Sweet Charity, was an extraordinary dance event bringing together over 800 women and raising over $15,000 for two local breast cancer organizations, Cancer Link and Gilda’s Club.

In 2000, Sweet Charity grew into an entire weekend of events and Aqua Girl® was born. The goal was to create a dynamic national fundraising weekend celebrating women and the issues that affect them. Women descended on Miami from all over the world and the first year of this spectacular weekend of events was a huge success.

We can’t believe how time flies. Now in its fourteenth fabulous year, Aqua Girl® continues to attract women from all corners of the country, the Americas and around the globe. The week continues to grow with an ever-expanding variety of events that enhance its appeal and have created what is now one of the hottest women’s festivals in the country.

At Aqua Girl® there is something for everyone. We have dance parties, live music, pool parties, a dine-out event, a VIP reception, celebrity meet-and-greets, and so much more. Having so much fun never did so much good.

As the largest charity women’s week in the country, your participation in Aqua Girl® contributes to a very good cause. In fact, 100% of the proceeds from Aqua Girl® benefit the Aqua Foundation for Women, a not-for-profit foundation whose primary mission is to serve as the funding catalyst for lesbian, bisexual, and transgender wellness and equality in South Florida through grants, scholarships, and initiatives.

Monies raised during the Foundation’s signature week, as well as through individual and corporate donations, go directly to educate, empower and foster the lesbian, bisexual, and transgender women’s communities throughout South Florida.

Over the past eight years the AFW has giving out over $400,000 in grants and scholarships while empowering hundreds of women to be engaged in our community.

The annual arrival of Nama Sakes in Japan is a widely-anticipated event, signaling the arrival of spring.  Nama sakes – young, unpasteurized and vibrant in flavor (nama meaning “young” in Japanese”) – are fruity with grassy notes, boasting a pleasant sweetness.  Hence the association with the change of season and SUSHISAMBA Miami Beach is the premier destination in South Florida to taste these sakes, which are available for a very limited time.  Enjoyed alone or perfectly paired with the restaurant’s renowned blend of Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisine, Nama Sakes are an epicurean delight not to be missed. Below are the special Nama Sake Sommelier Selections available at SUSHISAMBA Miami Beach until June 15, 2013.
Masumi “Arabashiri” Junmai Ginjo Nama Genshu    720ml     75.00
Combines the punch of just pressed sake with the fruity taste and aroma of Ginjo sake. Bracingly fresh and clean with a resounding finish—practically exploding with flavors. Arabashiri pairs well with robust foods, even Brazilian.
 
Tedorigawa “Kinka” Nama Daiginjo                       720ml    75.00
   Full, clean taste, with a nice balance of sweetness and acidity overlaying a delicate fruitiness.                                Like plum blossoms at winter’s end.
 
Dewazakura Dewasansan “Green Ridge:Primal Strength” Junmai Ginjo Nama Genshu  500ml    57.00
This nama, delivers a noticeable lift at first sip, followed by a pleasant tartness and a brisk finish.                                              Its lively taste stands up well to spicy foods.
 
Kikusui Funaguchi Nama Honjozo Genshu            200ml     15.00
Characterized by the fresh aroma of ripe fruit and a full-bodied, strikingly rich taste unique to this style of sake.                     Great served on the rocks.
 
Kikusui Funaguchi Aged Ginjo                                200ml     20.00
This Ginjo sake is packed as soon as it is brewed and aged at a low temperature for over a year,                                      allowing it to acquire a heavier mouth feel and rich character.
 
Seikyo Junmai Ginjo Nama       720ml    85.00                                                                                                    Bright and lively, this sake has notes of ripe watermelon, mango and citrus in the finish.                                                              It is well balanced with a rounded flavor and clean acidity.

Just like Gatsby himself, clean-cut and crisp Villa Azur is the perfect spot to celebrate the year’s biggest blockbuster that is finally coming to life on May 10th, “The Great Gatsby.” The beautiful all white dining room, crystal chandeliers and candles has the same rich and opulent feel as Gatsby’s famous parties from back in the Roaring 20’s!

Just as Gatsby’s Supper Parties in NYC were extravagant and adventurous so are Villa Azur’s Thursday night extravaganzas…Therefore the hot spot co-owned by actor Olivier Martinez and frequented by Great Gatsby star Leonardo DiCaprio, will be paying tribute to classic movie by throwing a 20’s themed movie release party on Thursday, May 9th at 9pm.

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.

For the first time ever performing at Miami’s New World Center, celebrated jazz artist and pianist Keiko Matsui will join special guest Al Di Meola for a never before seen concert event featuring both artists as well as Keiko’s band.  Matsui is known around the world for her innovative contemporary jazz performances and Di Meola for blending world music and jazz; this performance will feature Keiko’s songs, including some from her new album, as well as Di Meola’s original work, of which several will be performed together.

Their uniting for this unique performance is being hailed as one of the most widely anticipated events of the year set to take place in one of the most stunning music halls in the United States.
With over 1.2 million units sold in the U.S. alone and sold-out appearances at concert venues across the world, Matsui is one of the leading artists in the genre. Her elegant piano melodies and gentle jazz grooves have broad appeal and she continuously delights critics and fans alike.

Al Di Meola is accepted as a bona fide guitar hero, perennial poll-winner and proclaimed virtuoso of the highest order.  For over 30 years, Di Meola has been recognized as a prolific composer and respected artist with over 20 recordings as a leader.  Albums such as “Friday Night in San Francisco” have earned him both artistic and commercial success with a solid fan base throughout the world.

This event at the New World Center will be the first time that Matsui and Di Meola will have performed together, and this is the only show currently scheduled featuring both artists.

The New World Center is home to the New World Symphony. In less than two decades, the New World Symphony has become a leading cultural institution in South Florida, generating audiences and critical acclaim around the world.

Marilyn Manson at Fillmore Miami Beach 7/21/13

Fillmore Miami Beach at The Jackie Gleason Theatre

General Admission tickets are $45.50. Limited VIP seating is also available.
All dates, acts and ticket prices are subject to change without notice. All tickets are subject to applicable taxes, parking and service and handling charges.

Popular Shock Rocker South Florida’s own Marilyn Manson comes to the intimate Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theatre. Picture Me Broken opens the show.

Love him or hate him, the self-proclaimed "Antichrist Superstar" – Marilyn Manson — was indisputably among the most notorious and controversial entertainers ever.  Starting out as Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids, they had become one of the most popular acts in the South Florida area.  Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor came calling, offering both a contract with his Nothing Records label as well as the chance to open for NIN; Manson accepted both offers, and the group’s debut LP, Portrait of an American Family, appeared during the summer of 1994. The group’s notoriety began to soar and during an appearance in Salt Lake City, Manson ripped apart a copy of the Book of Mormon while on-stage. Celebrated by supporters as a crusader for free speech Manson was the latest in a long line of shock rockers, rising to the top of the charts on a platform of sex, drugs, and Satanism. His brand of metal struck a major chord with the youth market, and he became a mainstream anti-hero. Such attention pushed many of his songs — including "The Dope Show," "The Beautiful People," and a cover of the Eurythmics’ "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" — into the upper reaches of the modern rock charts.

Pet Shop Boys at The Fillmore 9/12/13

www.fillmoremb.com .
 
Postmodern ironists cloaked behind a veil of buoyantly melodic and lushly romantic synth pop confections, Pet Shop Boys, vocalist Neil Tennant and  keyboardist Chris Lowe, established themselves among the most commercially and critically successful groups of their era with cheeky, smart, and utterly danceable music. Always remaining one step ahead of their contemporaries, the British duo navigated the constantly shifting landscape of modern dance-pop with rare grace and intelligence, moving easily from disco to house to techno with their own distinctive image remaining completely intact. Satiric and irreverent — yet somehow strangely affecting — they also transcended the seeming disposability of their craft, offering wry and thoughtful cultural commentary communicated by the Morse code of au courant synth washes and drum-machine rhythms. With hits like: "West End Girls," "It’s a Sin” "What Have I Done to Deserve This?" and "New York City Boy" they constantly rose to the top of the charts.  On July 16th they release their latest effort Electric.  Electric features nine tracks in total – eight brand new Pet Shop Boys’ songs plus a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “The Last to Die.”  The result is as uncompromising a collection of dance anthems as Pet Shop Boys have ever made. 
 
General Admission tickets are $49.50 and go on sale Friday, April 26TH / 10AM at LiveNation.com or charge by phone 800-745-3000 and at the Fillmore Box Office during normal business hours (Mon. – Fri., 11AM – 6PM and during show days).  Limited VIP seating is also available.
All dates, acts and ticket prices are subject to change without notice. All tickets are subject to applicable taxes, parking and service and handling charges.

Claws for Kids at Joe’s for Boys and Girls Clubs 5/5/13

Posted on    by

Claws for Kids at Joe’s for Boys and Girls Clubs
Sunday, May 5, 11:30 a.m.
Joe’s Stone Crab
11 Washington Avenue
Miami Beach, FL 33139

Table sponsorships range from $1,500 to $10,000. Underwriting opportunities are available, and individual tickets are $175.

Guests Can Enjoy Joe’s Without the Wait Before Stone Crab Season Ends!
 
Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade will hold a last call before stone crab season ends! At the organization’s 2nd Annual “Claws for Kids” fundraising brunch, guests can enjoy delicious stone crabs and other signature Joe’s cuisine without the wait. All event proceeds will benefit Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s state-of-the-art South Beach location. Last year’s event raised $32,500 net for the cause.

Joe’s will open up its restaurant for brunch on May 5 only for supporters of Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s “Claws for Kids.” Menu items will include stone crabs, cole slaw, hash brown potatoes, creamed spinach and Key Lime pie. For those who don’t eat stone crabs, main course options will be available. Entertainment will be provided by Frank Sinatra impersonator Jeff Grainer of Sinatra Sounds Entertainment. Showcasing/selling their pieces on site will be Santayana Jewelers and Gaby Malcer Custom Jewelry.
 
“Last year’s ‘Claws for Kids’ brunch was a great success, and we’re happy to continue this annual event,” said Judy Kramer, Claws for Kids committee chair. “The brunch presents a great opportunity to enjoy Joe’s delicious cuisine without the wait while raising funds for the new South Beach Club.”
 
“Claws for Kids” committee members include Judy Kramer, Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade former Board President Olga Guilarte, Lana DeSimone, Susan Geiger, Irene Korge, Raul Marmol, Connie & Fred Rebozo, Jeff Samas, Rae Stein, Eris Thomas, and Dr. Mark Walker.
 
After having served the children of Miami Beach for 27 years, the prior 2,500-sq.-ft. South Beach Club on the existing site was demolished in September 2011 to make way for construction of the new facility, which will open early summer 2013 during a celebratory ribbon-cutting party. The new South Beach Club will feature a teen center, state-of-the-art computer lab, teaching kitchen for children, homework rooms, games rooms and a creative arts room, and will serve approximately 400 children from the local area.

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.

Selected artists gain access to utilize the technology of Haven and present their art in a dynamic presentation.

Installation #68 will feature David Rohn | Danilo De La Torre | Alexis Trigoura

DAVID ROHN

David Rohn grew up in the suburbs of New York, the city in which he lived during most of the ’70’s and ’80’s. He studied Architecture, Art and Urbanism at NYU, the Ecole des Beaux Arts, and Pratt Institute, he moved to Paris again in 1989 , and later settled in Miami in 1992 where he began to exhibit paintings, videos, installations, and performances. Currently associated with Carol Jazzar Contemporary Art, Miami, his work has reached museums and collections both public and private.
In 2008, he formed:”Homo-Sapiens (Art for Evolution) with collaborator Danilo de la Torre for the creation and production of a variety of performance, Video, and Photographic projects, typically with themes related to social issues.
David Rohn also contributes writing on art for Artlurker and Whitehot Miami.

DANILO DE LA TORRE / ADORA

Born in Havana Cuba .
Trained in classical ballet . Worked in musical theater and cabaret from age of seventeen.
Went to Paris France in 1985 to join Le Ballet Theatre de la Seine, where he continued to work in contemporary and modern dance.
Visit Miami Beach in 1986 (later to be know as South Beach) Relocated there, soon to become Adora, an icon whose outrageous bouffant wigs, extraordinary make up and captivating stage presence made him/her the undisputed “Queen of South Beach”, a title that survives even in that somewhat changed Scene.
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.

“Wailing, plucking, and gongs . . . composers have used many types of sound production in contemporary piano music. This concert features the piano as a playground for timbral exploration. 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

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.

More then 200 guests gathered recently at Broken Shaker to celebrate two iconic whiskeys and two great American writers at the Twain vs. Orwell Mixology Competition presented by Glenmorangie and Ardbeg. Eight local mixologists and members of the United States Bartenders Guild competed in a literary inspired competition to see who could create the freshest new Twain or Orwell inspired cocktail using Ardbeg or Glenmorangie single malt whiskey.

The trial was performed “Iron Chef’ style before four judges: David Blackmore, global brand ambassador for Glenmorangie/Arbeg, Trisha Cancilla, regional marketing manager for Glenmorangie/Ardbeg; Galena Mosevich, cocktail writer for Miami.com and The Miami Herald, and Mickey Heads, distillery manager for Ardbeg who came in all the way from Scotland to be a part of the event.

At 7:30pm, live bagpipes sounded to present the competition finalists Trevor Alberts of Gramp’s in Wynwood and Michael Parish of Broken Shaker, who each won a private edition bottle of Ardbeg or Glenmorangie. But to name the ultimate cocktail and mixologist, the contestants then entered a sudden death round where they each had to create a shot using Ardbeg or Glenmorangie. Michael Parish was crowned the first place winner earning a brand new iPad mini for his inventive and delicious concoction.

Guest enjoyed a variety of single malt whiskey samples throughout the evening including Ardbeg’s private edition Galileo, which was just named theWorld’s Best Single Malt Whiskey at the 2013 World Whiskey Awards in London. Ardbeg’s 10 Year Old, Uigeadail and Corryvreckan were also served along with Glenmorangie’s The Original Lasanta, Quinta Ruban and Nectar d’Or.

Artist Jon Grey entertained the crowd with the live creation of an original Twain vs. Ardbeg painting. Other fun highlights included Twain and Orwell Madlibs, an interactive photo area where guests could dress up as characters from Twain and Orwell books, butler passed Scottish bites, and of course,Broken Shaker’s famous hand crafted punch bowls.

What’s the connection between the whiskey’s and these writers? Glenmorangie’s Ealanta is aged exclusively in wooden casks sourced from the Mark Twain Nation Forest in the Missouri Ozark Mountains. While George Orwell wrote his famous book 1984 while living on the Isle of Jura in Scotland. The area is next to Islay, the home of Ardbeg.

When the great Argentinean tango master Astor Piazzolla died in 1992, there were few musicians keeping his music alive. But Argentine-born, Brooklyn-based bassist, bandleader, and producer Pablo Aslan has brought an extraordinary focus on tango’s relationship to jazz, and on Piazzolla’s ideas about jazz tango. Piazzolla in Brooklyn, the latest recording by Aslan, was inspired by Take Me Dancing, a 1959 jazz tango recording by Astor Piazzolla. Newly recorded in Buenos Aires with a group of musically bilingual Argentine players, Piazzolla in Brooklyn updates Takes Me Dancing into state-of-the-art jazz tango. Join MDC Live Arts for a one-night performance of the rebirth of Jazz Tango.

HIIIII!!!! WE ARE DOING IT AGGGAIIINN!!! APRIL 20TH!!!

For those of you that don’t know Floatopia is a social event that has taken place in Santa Barbara, Cali since 2004. The title “Floatopia” describes the main activity the event is known for—floating on rafts and other home-made or store bought floating devices along the coast and partying on the beach. Since 2004, Floatopias have sprung up all over the states.

We brought Floatopia to Miami for the first time last September and on April 20th we are bringing this floating party to Miami again!!!

No bouncers, no guest lists, no cover charge, no promoters, just good ol’ fashioned fun!

Bring your float, raft, inner-tube, rubber tire or anything that floats and join us!

Note: Your “beverages” must be in discreet containers such as plastic bottles. Remember, NO glass bottles are allowed on the beach!

Invite your friends & like our FB page, Floatopia Miami, for more info.

Just like last time, please, please, please let’s not give anyone any reason to stop our fun! Get crazy…within legal limits. Remember we are floatOPIA, as the Miami New times pointed out, a type of utopia, an ideal community…of party people haha ;) …No drama, please. We are all one big, friendly, floating party family.

Please PICK UP AFTER YOURSELF, let’s be kind to this beautiful beach. Leave nothing but your float print. Some of us will be staying after the event to clean up the beach, please do your part.

We are very, very excited to be bringing Floatopia back to Miami again! THANK YOU ALL FOR BELIEVING IN FLOATOPIA MIAMI!

Peace, Love, Rock n’ Float!!!!

On Friday, April 19th, we cordially invite you to a night of debauchery as we toast to CHARLLIE DROZE.

This annual celebration for the local scenester includes a touch of Red-Light District, a dash of absinthe, the smell of candles and leather, and a raucous European madness that we can only call…
” The Moulin Droze “

We invite you to indulge us by dawning your best burlesque-inspired garb and becoming a character in our cirque. Consider this the one night a year that you can choose who you are… where you can be ANYONE you want to be: A courtesan dripping in pearls and lace, a french aristocrat in his best vintage tux, a can-can girl with only tassels and a boa she stole from a local boutique, a fortune-teller with deceptive intentions… even a penniless poet living from one glass of Pinot to the next with only the urge to write and drink.

All is allowed at The Moulin Droze.

Sensual soundtrack for our soiree will be provided by the incomparable DJ PRIDE. And the Unity Coalition will be serving unlimited complimentary cocktails with a donation to their organization between 10pm and 11pm. (#PartyWithAPurpose)

So please join us for a night of flirting with complete strangers, a night of surrendering to madness, a night of champagne and shows… a night… a night of EXCESS.

Eve Sussman | Rufus Corporation is a presentation of the video artist’s recent projects. This exhibition will present two major video installations, including an entirely new exploration of her noted film The Rape of the Sabine Women. A feature-length video-musical, The Rape of the Sabine Women is a contemporary reinterpretation of the eponymous Roman legend in a domestic 1960s setting, which Sussman has transformed into a five-part video installation. Also on view will be her 89 Seconds at Alcázar, a film based on the Diego Velázquez’s enigmatic Las Meninas, 1656. In this work, Sussman uses film to elucidate the circumstances of the exact moment that the painting aims to portray, a moment that has become immortalized in one of the most important paintings in art history.

The Bass Museum of Art is proud to present the exhibition Eve Sussman | Rufus Corporation, a presentation of the video artist’s recent projects. This exhibition will present two major video installations, including an entirely new exploration of her noted film The Rape of the Sabine Women. A feature-length video-musical, The Rape of the Sabine Women is a contemporary reinterpretation of the eponymous Roman legend. Presented in a traditional five act operatic format set in the 1960s, each of the film’s acts takes place in different locations, including Berlin’s Pergamon Museum and Tempelhof Airport, Athens’ Agora meat market, a classic modern 60’s dream house overlooking the Aegean and Athens’ Herodion Theatre. For this exhibition, Sussman and her team have reedited the film, and she is presenting it in a five-part installation, where each act of the film runs simultaneously in separate spaces.

Also on view will be her 89 Seconds at Alcázar, a twelve-minute film based on the Diego Velazquez’s enigmatic Las Meninas, 1656.  In her work, Sussman uses film to elucidate the circumstances of the exact moment that the painting aims to portray. By using a 360º Steadicam, Sussman is able to probe the quotidian scene that has become immortalized in one of Western culture’s most-discussed paintings.  In addition to these video works, Sussman will present photographic stills from these films alongside historical portraits from the collection of the Bass Museum of Art.

Eve Sussman founded the Rufus Corporation in 2003. Along with Rape of the Sabine Women, 2004, and 89 Seconds at Alcázar, 2007, the company has collaborated on other projects including Yuri’s Office, 2009, and whiteonwhite:algorithmicnoir, 2011. Rufus Corporation’s works have been exhibited and screened internationally and are included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; The Margulies Collection, Miami; Fundación La Caixa, Barcelona; and Centro Galego de Arte Contemporáneo, Santiago de Compostela, Spain. Eve Sussman is a 2010 recipient of the Anonymous was a Woman Award.

We present a unique opportunity for painters, photographers, designers, sculptors and videographers to exhibit their works in a Large Digital Format environment. Selected artists gain access to utilize the technology of Haven and present their art in a dynamic presentation.

Installation #66 will feature mixed media artist Cynthia Fleischmann, painter/photographer, and her exhibit “Silver.”

ABOUT THE ARTIST www.bodypaintography.com

Cynthia Fleischmann grew up in Küsnacht, Switzerland until she was 10, spending most of her time outdoors observing, playing sports, running around naked and drawing. Her appreciation for photography developed from her father’s love for pioneering photographers such as Ansel Adams, Edward Weston and Paul Strand that lined his gallery walls called Galerie Zur Stockeregg. Moving to Dover, Massachusetts with her mother and three older sisters imposed a new culture on her in which English became her prominent language and school activities and sports her focus and drive. She was intimately involved in creating stage sets for the school musicals and was nominated as most artistic in high school. Cynthia always had a passion for experimenting, and in 2009 she combined her painting and photography into one form she calls ‘bodypaintography.’ Although photography is her focus at the University of Miami, she does not feel limited by any form of expression and continues to experiment with painting, photography, lithography and drawing.

The objective of ‘for artists..BY ARTISTS’ (www.facebook.com/forartistBYARTISTS) is to create a social colony for artists from all disciplines of the arts. We present a unique opportunity for painters, photographers, designers, sculptors and videographers to exhibit their works in a Large Digital Format environment. Selected artists gain access to utilize the technology of Haven and present their art in a dynamic presentation.

Installation #67 will feature Dan Vidal (Photographer), Andrew C. Schrimmer (Illustrator/Painter), & Jennifer Art (Photographer).

DAN VIDAL www.dan-vidal.com

Since 1999, the bulk of my photographic work has focused on the dance music culture of the major cities of the United States, including the Miami metropolitan area, New York, and Las Vegas. In this decade of time, the “nightlife photographer” has risen from being a marginal player in the scene to an integral, almost ubiquitous documentarian.

With an eye towards getting away from that ubiquity, I utilize all the elements within the events and locations I’ve had the privilege of shooting at. Not content to use just a flash perched on top of my camera, I’ll utilize existing lights, reflections, fog, smoke, and look for the mysterious “right look” as it applies to what I do, in order to get the image.

JENNIFER ART www.jenniferartgallery.com

JenniferArt started as a creative idea which then grew into something that can be seen on many different platforms. It began with artist Jennifer Artidiello from Miami, FL with the gift of drawing by simply looking at an image and replicating it onto a larger scale in perfect detail and proportion at an early age. This was a hobby for years with no formal teaching. After high school, she attended the Art Institute of Los Angeles – CA and majored in Media Arts & Animation, then transferred to Miami International University of Art & Design. With the knowledge and projects she was heavily involved with she was able to combine all aspects of study and form her unique style.

JenniferArt’s purpose is to explore all boundaries that no one has ever breached in the art world before. To blend traditional art medium with new modern art mediums to create a one of a kind masterpiece that has no replica or equal. From Photography to painting, JenniferArt can cover each aspect of what makes Art. Through graphic design to visual painting, there is nothing that she won’t use to express the colorful images projecting in her mind. This has progressed into the Photography passion, where all those elements that have been taught on paper and digitally can come together on film.JenniferArt’s goal is to evoke awareness that women are powerful sensuous creatures that have the capacity create and destroy all that you love.

While in Los Angeles, she was part of Red Giant Productions that worked on various projects and studios such as Image comics, rhythm & Hues, and Sony to name a few. In recent years she has worked with several clients producing graphic design logo work, web site design, painting, and photography. Photography has really been the passion and drive that moves JenniferArt, with many projects that are still in the works it is her desire and goal to bring her view of what the embodiment of art is to light.
ADAM C. SCHRIMMER www.adamschrimmer.com

Adam C Schrimmer is a color blind artist, whose preferred medium is charcoal. He loves working with his hands and feeling every part of what he is creating. The simple versatility in the tool allows him to reach the degree of detail that he chooses. He enjoys the closeness that he feels with it; there is a natural bond that is unavoidable. It bears a nostalgic resemblance to finger painting as a child, there is a direct connection between his mind, body, and heart that is still exhilarating (even as an adult). He is recognized for his work in charcoal on large-scale mixed surfaces including wood panels and canvas.

During a solo exhibit where he worked ‘live,’ Adam’s work was classified as “Emotional Expressionism.” His drawings never take more than a day, they are started and finished in one sitting. No matter the size or subject matter. When he gets inspired to work it is like a surge of energy… a pulse of power; he becomes like an out of control freight train driven by the music in his ears and the blood pumping in his veins. Adam is a very passionate person and believes strongly that a feeling, emotion or state of mind cannot be duplicated. This moment, right now, as you read this short bio will be gone in a second and you will never get it back. His drawings are moments in time that he cannot create again, it would never be the same, because the emotional and physical state-of-being that urged him to make that specific piece of art at that specific time, on that specific day are now gone.

Two stunning works by this internationally renowned company from Montreal – Henri Michaux: Mouvements and Etude for Duets. Henri Michaux: Mouvements includes 64 stage-height pages of India-ink drawings by Belgian painter and poet Henri Michaux. Inspired by Michaux’s “feast of bursting lines, spots and kaleidoscopic arms,” Chouinard used them as a choreographic score reading them literally, from left to right and page to page. Works by Marie Chouinard portray dance as a sacred art with respect for the body as a vehicle for that art, a virtuoso approach to performance and the invention of a different universe for each new piece.
