KCC Productions and the Van Dyke Cafe present Big Poppa E and the E Band

Born in 1948 and now in his third decade as a professional performing artist, E continues to nurture his passion for the Blues. Growing up in New York, he discovered his purpose at the age of 13, when he was drawn to the sounds of Acoustic Blues, and got his first harmonica when he discovered Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. In the 70s, 80s and 90s, he developed his singer/songwriting talents, as well as an aptitude for playing other instruments beautifully… His specialty was the blues harp. He established himself as a ground-breaking harmonica player, and became a percussionist with Hodges, James and Smith (back in the early 70s) as well as a studio musician with Bolic Sound Studios, playing behind Ike and Tina Turner. He also played percussions on Sussex Records with Bobbi Hall behind Bill Withers in 1971 through 1974. In the 80s, he moved to Chicago where he played with the likes of John Prine, Jo Mapes, and Joseph Jarman.
While family and other commitments would interrupt his career, E always returned to his roots in blues, and 2000 saw the release of his second album, “The First Time Out”, an extraordinary recording that was an eclectic mix of ten original compositions comprising Blues, R&B, Jazz, Delta and Gospel. In 2002, E hit his stride, adding his exceptional harmonica skills and powerful vocals to the mix. He delivers charismatic, compelling, and passionate performances that are charged with emotion and filled with his authentic signature style. Always experimenting with new sounds, he sometimes makes bold, daring renditions of obscure tunes of legendary icons such as Robert Johnson, Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker, adding his unique spin to them.
2006 was a creative year for E, what with three albums released and building his own record label, Black Owl Music. While his albums showcase the sensual range of his vocals and the use of his voice as an incredibly multi-faceted instrument, it is his haunting harp signature style that captivates and inspires his audience. “Mississippi Reminiscence” is the most personal of his work, and “Five Long Years: A Tribute To Carey Bell” has been hailed as sheer unadulterated blues.
KCC Productions and Jazid present Jazz at Jazid, with the Mushy Widmaier Ensemble
Tuesday November 30, at 11 PM
Jazid is located at 1342 Washington Ave, South Beach
For more information, call (305) 673-9372 or visit jazid.net.
Mushy Widmaier, is a prodigy of Haitian music, born and raised in Port-au Prince. He was completely mesmerized by the black and white suite, the array of tones, timbre’s and notes of the piano during his childhood. It was to become his favorite instrument, and he learned it well.
He is now considered one of the top 10 piano players in the Caribbean, one of its most exceptional masters. The 80’s brought recognition to Mushy and his brother Joel for having infected the Haitian music scene with a highly innovative style known today as the “The School of the New Generationâ€. Their group, Zekle, became synonymous with a modern jazz sound which includes soft oxygen-like singing, strong melodies, energetic arrangement, meaningful lyrics, keyboard pads and strings elements placed beneath the rhythm section. Mushy also has 150 plus commercial jingles and advertising spots to his credit.
His music has been used to promote the wares of fortune 500 companies such as Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Prestige Beer and the major banks in Haiti. Mushy Widmaier is a true scholar, and the very definition of a Renaissance musician. His evolution has led him to the following conclusion;
“Haitian Music is song, classical, roots, dance, contemporary, traditional, jazz and all musical genres originated from the Haitian soul. This variety constitutes the opera of our history.†Mushy

Karen Peterson and Dancers, a non-profit mixed ability dance troupe, will be performing Buoyant Dreams.
Byron Carlyle Theatre
500 71st Street, in Miami Beach
Dec. 11th at 4 and 8 p.m.
The production was created by four well established female artists, who joined forces to create a two-part performance that will ignite the senses with visual and musical artistry.
Buoyant Dreams, choreographed by Karen Peterson, is danced by able and disabled dancers, who explore how they relate to each other through dance and I Will Catch You is a contemporary dancework, choreographed by Joanne Barrett and performed to live jazz by The Wendy Pedersen Jazz Trio.
Visual artist, Maria Lino and Peterson collaborated to create Buoyant Dreams, which uses projected images of the disabled dancers in and out of water as an interactive backdrop to the mixed-ability performance. The dancers and images mirror each other creating a visually stunning and emotionally charged experience for audience members.
Lino had been working on a series about water for about three years when she approached Peterson about an interdisciplinary collaboration related to buoyancy and freedom of the human body in water.
“I explored and documented the possibilities of buoyancy and movement in water of dancers with physical challenges and how they relate to fully-abled dancers in such environments through video and digital media. I experimented with images of varying scale, angles, details and compositions, interweaving them with the choreography of Karen Peterson, creating a closely knitted performance of both disciplines,†said Lino, who won the Cintas Foundation Award in 1975-76 and 1976-77 .
The other half of the performance, titled I Will Catch You will be danced to live music by The Wendy Pedersen Jazz Trio’s newest work, Boy Meets Girl, and choreographed by Barrett , who has been teaching dance for over 24 years and was acknowledged as best dancer of the year by Time Out London.
Barrett’s works will be performed in an intimate setting reminiscent of a smoky jazz lounge, where the audience is meant to feel as if they are part of the performance. And though most of the performance is choreographed, she has created moments where dancers improvise to scatting by singer, Pedersen, or to one of the trio’s instruments – piano, bass and drums.
One of the pieces in I Will Catch You will be performed with the pianist, who will be in the house, close to the audience.
“I am excited about the collaboration and the opportunity to create feeling and imagery based dance structures and dance outbursts to improvised solos by jazz musicians,†said Barrett, who focuses on connecting with space, energy and emotions through precise sculpted movements.
Proceeds from this event will go to Karen Peterson and Dancers, a non-profit mixed ability dance troupe established in 1990. A graduate of The Boston Conservatory, Peterson has received numerous choreographic fellowship awards from Division of Cultural Affairs, Department of State and the Miami-Dade Department of Cultural Affairs.
The troupe promotes dance as a multi-cultural and inclusive art form and does extensive community and world outreach through workshops, video lecture demonstrations and performances. The troupe has traveled to places, such as, Trebinje, Bosnia , the VSA International Showcase in Washington D.C. and the Ruth Eckerd Murray Hall in Clearwater.
This season marks 21 years since Petersen founded the mixed-ability troupe and she is optimistic about the group’s future and its many possibilities.
“With able-bodied dancers you have a hundred choices. With disabled dancers there are limitations, but it is these limitations that challenge me and inspire the creative solutions that help us evolve each year,†said Peterson.
Peterson will be holding auditions for dancers in the beginning of next year. For more detailed information call 305-298-5879.
There will be two performances of Buoyant Dreams and I Will Catch You at 4 and 8 p.m. Dec. 11 in the Byron Carlyle Theatre, 500 71st St. There will an after party and fundraiser at the The New Hotel, which is walking distance from the theatre. Tickets are $15 – 25. VIP seating and admission to the after party will be available to $25 ticket holders. Tickets are available at 305-298-5879, at the window in the Byron or Colony Theatres or at www.ticketmaster.com or call Ticketmaster at 866-448-7849.
Karen Peterson and Dancers’ work is supported by Citizens Interested in the Arts; The Children’s Trust; the City of Miami Beach Cultural Affairs Program, Cultural Arts Council; the Florida Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, the Florida Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts; the Jewish Communal Fund: Marvin Leibowitz; the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, the Cultural Affairs Council, the Mayor and the Miami Dade County Board of County Commissioners; The Miami Salon Group; Norton Viney Private Foundation; Robert and Anne Altman, The Mildred Pallas Levenson Dance Foundation and other individual contributors.

Good n’ Plenty is a spotlight on ArtCenter/South Florida artists, from the first year the organization opened its doors until today. Established in 1984 by a small group who envisioned a cultural renaissance in a then-blighted and vacant avenue, this exhibit aptly coincides with ArtCenter’s 25th year and the 50th anniversary of Lincoln Road Mall by paying homage to past and current artists-in-residence with their most recent works. Good N’ Plenty is curated by alumni Kristen Thiele, who witnessed the non-profit’s development since its inception when her mother, Shirley Henderson, joined as one of its first artists-in-residence.
Participants include founding artist Ellie Schneiderman; luminaries William Cordova and Luis Gisbert; Haitian Diaspora artist and community leader Edouard Duval Carrie; Brandon Opalka; TMsisters; Gavin Perry; Beatriz Monteavaro; Carlos De Villasante; David Packer; David Rohn; Diane Hanson; Franklin Einspruch; Jenny Brillhart; Jonathan Peck; Joshua Levine; Juan Carballo; Julie Davidow; Kerry Phillips; Kristen Thiele; Luisa Basnuevo; Sara Stites; Shirley Henderson; Susan Lee Chun; Tawnie Silva; Vickie Pierre; Vincent Hemphill; William Keddell and Yolanda Sanchez.
Sweet Jesus by Alex Heria
Second Floor Windows, 924 Lincoln Road between Jefferson and Michigan Avenues, Miami Beach
Blending religious iconography with jewels, glitter and gold, mixed media artist Alex Heria illustrates the age-old relationship between Catholicism and money with visual effects and photography, found objects and carnival lighting. The bold installation will be on view in the second floor windows of ArtCenter’s 924 Lincoln Road property, creating a heavenly, tricked-out arch above the primary entranceway.
Additional happenings at ArtCenter/South Florida during the week of Art Basel Miami Beach include:
· “Gift of Art†– ArtCenter’s 40 artists-in-residence have created limited edition prints that will be available free of charge to visitors with vouchers. Vouchers will be distributed at the opening event on Wednesday, December 1, 2010.

On my usual roundabouts of events, I decided to concentrate this time in Miami Beach. First on my list was the launch of Money Clip Direct South Beach at Chez Badeaux salon on Alton Road. Money Clip Direct is a beautifully designed coupon book that is delivered to homes all throughout South Florida, filled with exclusive offers designed to save all of us money. Chez Badeaux was honored to open its doors to its neighbors and surrounding businesses as there was music and great food provided by King Kone. It gave all visitors the opportunity to have a glimpse of this wonderful salon and the services it provides.
Next on my agenda, I headed to D. Rodriguez Cuba at Hotel Astor on Washington Avenue for the Voices Against Brain Cancer Kick Off Celebration. Mano Lichtenstein, founder of VABC and Chef Douglas Rodriguez hosted this celebration alongside some of VABC Ambassadors. VABC toasted the launch of the Florida Chapter featuring the sounds of Conjunto Progreso. This event was also in celebration of the upcoming Sounding Off For a Cure concert to be held on February 11, 2011. The cocktail reception which included many Miami and Miami Beach socialites started with delectable cocktails and passed appetizers that only D. Rodriguez Cuba is known for. Later on, the restaurant area turned into one big dance floor as the guests moved to the rhythms of Conjunto Progreso and Voice Against Brain Cancer thanked the invited guest for a wonderful evening supporting a great cause.
After I left the great fundraiser, I went to the Grand Opening of Coltorti on Lincoln Road. The store celebrated their storied 75 year history in Italy by welcoming invited guest to their new store in Miami. When I entered the store, I was amazed of all the good fashion that it had. Their motto is to bring the Coltori way re-interpreted into Miami chic. According to Marzio Torcianti, Coltorti Managing Director, “The Miami woman is certainly carving out her own place in fashion…much in the same way you look at a New Yorker or Parisian.” Coltorti will become a great resource to the Miami woman who wants to dress Miami Chic. With exclusive arrangements for pieces from coveted design house such as Moncler and Viannet, Coltorti will definitely be one store that you don’t want to miss.
My last stop was a surprise, as I have heard through the grapevine that there was a hotel opening, so I wandered to downtown Miami and low and behold, I discovered that it was the JW Marriott Marquis Grand Opening. Unfortunately, when I arrived, most of the guests were already leaving but the action was still going inside. So I took the elevator to the 19th Floor and to my surprise, the party was still going. In one of the beautifully decorated ballrooms there was a basketball court where guests in their tuxedos and dresses where still playing up some hoops. In another room, rich desserts and expresso were being served. As I passed the pool table in that area, I encountered a virtual bowling alley where guests were hitting a strike one after another. In another adjacent room, other guests were enjoying a good round of virtual golf. The hotel and its amenities were amazing. It was a great night even though the great stars were gone but it gave me an appreciation of the hotel after all the commotion was gone.
All in all it was a great night and after that I headed back home where a warm bed was welcoming me and looking forward to another great night out in the town!

Frere Independent is proud to present the sixth edition of the PooL Art Fair in Miami Beach. Slated for December 3, 4 & 5, 2010 at the Carlton Hotel, PooL is the only exhibition to present great, unrepresented artists during Art Basel Miami Beach.
The simple, modest approach of the PooL Art Fair offers an exciting alternative to the “Art Fair” experience for dealers and collectors as well as the general public. PooL’s purpose is to create a meeting ground for outstanding artists, primarily those who do not yet have gallery representation. Contemporary art dealers, artist agents, emerging galleries, artists’ collectives, and non-profit organizations are also invited to apply to participate as exhibitors. The fair serves as an invaluable resource for the artistic community and the general public.
Our organization is committed to present to the world, talented artists that do not yet have representation. Frere Independent offers artists the opportunity to be a part of the unique and important cultural environment that manifests during Art Basel Miami Beach. It is also an opportunity for gallery owners, curators and other art enthusiasts to discover artists that are not shown in the other art fairs. Finally, artists are able to sell works while expanding their network as well as receiving invitations to exhibit or create site-specific works.
We select artists whose works are original, and challenging. Exhibiting artists use hotel guest rooms to display their work creating a unique and personal setting. We ask that they share with the public their most recent works.
The following artists will be participating:
Room 109: Aby Hassani
Room 110: Kevin Berlin
Room 114: Leander D’Ambrosia & Dore Page, Artists, Joanne Breslin, Curator
Room 115: Dan Pottick

Party with DJ Trace.1NE from 8pm
DJ Trace.1NE will be performing from 8 pm in the lobby of the Carlton Hotel. An avid student of Hip Hop growing up and self described eclectic, he caught a local buzz during Ultra ’09 after spinning for the Scratch DJ booth opening many doors and building a good rep with every new opportunity. Sticking to the script, Dj Trace.1NE continues to let history live, spinning on classic vinyl turntables, and keeping a diverse/open format.
Special guest : Zulema Griffin
Zulema Griffin of Deux Conceptualiste Noir
Projected Movement 1, 2010
Single-Channel Video; 5:30 shown on Four Plasma screens in lobby
Deux Conceptualiste Noir invites Kenya (Robinson) to wear their designs, pose and walk around parts of New York City, partly associated with established worlds of finance and European culture, such as Wall Street and Lincoln Center. The performance is inspired by Frantz Fanon’s seminal work Black Skin,White Masks that scrutinizes the psychological impact of blackness in predominantly white cultures. The work therefore suggests a critical reading of the feelings of dependency and inadequacy through fashion and body language.
Outlaw will be in Miami at the PooL Art Fair with TAKE CARE, a group show of seven artists making work about biomedical ethics in the 21st Century. TAKE CARE is in Suite 119 at the Carlton Hotel. Kristina Arnold, Sher Fick, Jeanette May, Lindsay Obermeyer, Adrienne Outlaw, Libby Rowe, Sadie Ruben
Also Dec. 2 – 5 Adrienne Outlaw will distribute, free to the public, 100 limited edition Enhancer viewfinders in public locations throughout Miami. As part of a multi-phase artwork addressing the ethics of pharmacological neuroenhancement, Outlaw has distributed some 400 of these brain-shaped, viewfinders in such places as Bangkok, Sao Paulo, Santiago, Copenhagen, Berlin, Costa Rica, Atlanta, Nashville, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and now Miami.
Adrienne Outlaw grounds her interdisciplinary practice in a rigorous commitment to craft.
Her often interactive work is informed by ethical issues developing with the rapid advancement of biotechnology. She is the recipient of grants, awards, and fellowships from such places as the Elizabeth Firestone Graham Foundation, Tennessee Arts Commission, and the Virginia Center for Creative Arts.
As part of her practice, Outlaw also writes, curates and runs programs for artists. She holds a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and an MLAS from Vanderbilt University.
We are excited to announce the Bu2 Suite at the Carlton Hotel during this year’s edition of the PooL Art Fair in Miami Beach. Bu2 is a program of Frere Independent that aims at extending opportunity for Artists and Collectors to sell and acquire art works online. This year in Miami Beach these artworks will be on view at the site of the fair and on the website as well.
Access to the Bu2 suite will be available to all-access cardholders to relax and enjoy complimentary Nespresso and wine and look at a selection of Art Work for sale.
Artworks will be available for acquisition online this Friday.

The food of the Andes was showcased, for the first time, at the First Annual Taste of Peru on October 23 – 24 at the Miami Beach Convention Center. The show organizers, World Trade Center Miami, partnered with the Peruvian American Chamber of Commerce of South Florida (PACCSF) to bring this new element to fruition, which includes cuisine-related activities such as an inauguration cocktail, seminars, dance performances, contests, tastings and cooking demos.
In recent years, Peruvian food has become a global cuisine and is the new darling of the culinary world. In Miami, Florida alone, there’s an estimated 135 Peruvian restaurants. Julio Rodriguez, President of the PACCSF, has made it his mission to promote the innovation and sophistication of the foods and beverages of his native Peru. In addition to the festivities, Mr. Rodriguez organized two types of seminars. The first, hosted by a renowned Peruvian Chef, which focused on special ingredients, chef secrets, recipes and other like topics. The latter seminar spolighted how to successfully launch a Peruvian food & beverage business.
The PACCSF debuted the Peruvian Pavilion. According to Rodriguez, eight companies exhibited at the Peruvian Pavilion with coffees, Piscos, beverages, seafood and other food products. “Peru has 84 of 104 ecosystems that exist in the world making its ingredients and dishes as varied as the imagination itself,†said Rodriguez.
“Given the Free Trade Agreement between Peru and the United States, working closely with Peru was a natural choice,†said Charlotte Gallogly, President of the World Trade Center Miami. “The participation of countries like Peru underscores the scope and reach of our trade show as we become more and more international and continue to contribute to cross-border trade.”

Having shared the stage with greats such as Sammy Figueroa (performing on his Grammy-nominated album, The Magician), Robby Ameen, Lew Soloff, Lauryn Hill, James Morrison, Kevin Mahogany, Slide Hampton, Gary Bartz, Geoff Keezer, Rodney Whitaker, Carl Allen, Dennis McCrell, Jeff Hamilton and John Clayton, Troy has not only just released his third album, The XenDen Suite – an 8-part composition for jazz quartet and string quartet – but also his first DVD – a live concert performance of The XenDen Suite.
Troy leads the exciting nu-jazz project, The NuJive Collective, which features some seriously talented young Miami-based artists, while showcasing Troy’s original compositions – an eclectic concoction of jazz, groove, Latin and neo-soul.

SIP.TASTE.DRINK.DISCOVER. South Florida residents are about to be lured into temptation with the arrival of eden South Beach, a new “garden-to-table†eatery in the heart of Miami Beach. The locavore-inspired, Seasonal American restaurant, bar and lounge will restore the historic building at 210 23rd Street to reflect the mood of its lush, wilderness-like atmosphere, where all inhibitions are lost and eating from the garden is considered a standard, not a sin.
With the quintessence of paradise and the modern attitude of South Beach, owners Kelley Jones, acclaimed chef Christopher Lee, nightlife magnate Chuck Schafer and local entrepreneur Lawrence Rizzo are set to arouse South Florida’s dining and nightlife scene with something new to DISCOVER.
“We wanted to create a destination where guests can enjoy food, DRINK, nightlife and culture – all in one space,†said co-owner Jones, a hospitality industry veteran with more than 25 years of experience. “We are proud to debut our concept in Miami; the location, energy and vibe made it the obvious choice for eden.â€
The executive chef is James Beard Award-winning and Top Chef Masters alum Christopher Lee, known best for his artfully presented and refined take on national cuisine. The extensive menu, a combination of “New American Classics,†farm- and garden-fresh ingredients and artisan products at their seasonal peak, features simplicity at its finest.
“We’ve created a menu that revives traditional American favorites with modern interpretations that are inventive, yet restrained,†said Lee. “We want the menu to be approachable for everyone – simple yet vibrant with bright, bold TASTEs.â€
eden South Beach’s menu is divided into three offerings: Temptations, 1st Courses and Main Courses. Temptations, plates meant for sharing, include Grilled Littleneck Clams with chile butter and toasted breadcrumbs ($12) and Blackened Chicken Quesadillas with avocado, pico de gallo and caramelized pineapple ($11). 1st Courses excite the palate with Crispy Calamari seasoned with curry and Thai sesame dressing and sprinkled with toasted coconut ($13), as well as Heirloom Tomatoes with house-made burrata cheese, pesto and aged balsamic ($12) and Beef Carpaccio with arugula, shaved Parmesan cheese, pickled onions and drizzled with a truffle dressing ($18). Main Course dishes boast the best of Florida’s local and seasonal offerings and include Seared Yellowfin Tuna with aji amarillo, ratatouille and a warm orange vinaigrette ($32) and Braised Beef Short Ribs served with a potato puree, brussel sprouts, freshly grated horseradish and a red wine sauce ($35).
The sinful, house-made desserts offer playful indulgences such as Eve’s First Bite, a warm apple tart topped with crème fraiche and candied ginger ($8); Temptation’s Passion Fruit Cheesecake with sweet n’ salty macadamia nuts and caramelized bananas ($8); and an addictive Milk Chocolate Orange Pot de Crème served with warm sugar cookies ($9).
The food is the main event at eden South Beach, but the sensuous, urbane décor completes the experience. Renowned interior designer Andrew Alford of Dirty Lines Design Studio has infused a little good and little evil into the restaurant, bar and garden. Every detail, from the recurring snake depictions to the subtle integration of the taboo letter “X†throughout the dining room, and the kaleidoscope wallpaper print with images of arugula, purslane and frisee, has been carefully thought out to create a dynamic space that celebrates life as it relates to food, wine, nature and hedonism.
The private outdoor “Garden of Eden†offers a gracious, landscaped patio serving as the perfect backdrop for either an afternoon respite in one of the four cabanas, a two-course meal at a dining table or a late-night bite with cocktails and friends at the custom-made mirror, quartz and ceramic bar. An array of fresh herbs and “forbidden†fruits including papaya, rosemary, Meyer lemon, chives, key limes, mint, fennel, bananas, cilantro and more will be utilized in more than 20 percent of the menu and not only enhances the aromatic, al-fresco ambience but also offers guests a glimpse of what goes into the kitchen.
The 3,000-square-foot interior space features a palette of warm gray, black and white with bright emerald accents throughout, the latter inspired by chef Lee’s culinary color wheel. Guests will be greeted by a 10-foot feature wall draped in orchids and exotic greens mounted against silvery faux pony fur, the same color of the natural stone topped bar, which seats 10, and serves as the perfect place to enjoy one of eden South Beach’s exotic signature cocktails, made in-house, also sourcing the garden’s bounty. The comprehensive wine list includes more than 70 wines from around the world with a selection offered by the SIP, a two-ounce pour; taste, a six-ounce pour; drink, a bottomless glass; or discover, wine by the bottle. Skilled service professionals are on-site to suggest a perfect pairing for each guest’s plate and palate.
eden South Beach is an experience of food, drink, nightlife and culture featuring Seasonal American cuisines by CEO of Société Hospitality Kelley Jones (www.societehospitality.com), venerable James Beard Award-winning Chef Christopher Lee (www.chefchristopherlee.com), Colorado nightlife magnate Chuck Schafer and Miami-based entrepreneur Lawrence Rizzo. A fusion of progressive technique, farm-fresh standards and Lee’s distinguished aesthetic and precision, the restaurant’s menu of temptations draws notes from America’s melting pot of cultures to create inspired dishes with a “garden-to-table†approach.

Tired of eating out of trucks or cold sandwich cafe food? Verge Miami has you covered. A popular spot for collectors and attendees, VERGE offers 5-star dining options at the Catalina’s Kung Fu Sushi and Maxine Restaurants. Just drinks? Never fear–no overpriced $12 bottle drinks at VERGE! Join us at hotspot The Red Bar at the Catalina for daily FREE cocktail mixers at its famous Happy Hour from 7-8pm. Yes, free drinks every day!
“VERGE consistently breaks the mold, providing the vision to introduce new artists that are quickly scooped up by a market famished for new direction.” says Director Maria Jenson. How many artists now commanding high prices got their start at VERGE? Droves. And there’s no question as to why.

THE DRAWING SHOW
Continuing in the effort to advance the interests of unique approaches to the current state of visual art, Verge is proud to announce its commitment to mounting a section devoted exclusively to drawing as a medium that overlaps all disciplines. The Drawing Show will present drawing as a unique artistic practice, one that is universally accessible, and often the first step in an artist’s exercise of ideas that inform both their larger creative practice and the cultivation of new forms of visual art.
As a touchstone to the evolutions influenced by and visited upon artistic practice by the art marketplace and its requisite economic fluxuations, drawing continues to serve as a subversive force, both in its delineation of artistic ideas as well as in its potential to inspire and serve as the first step in production unrestrained by economic categories.
EMERGING LATIN ART
Recognizing the unique cultural environment of Miami as a gateway to South America, Verge will offer a speial section devoted to a survey of the best in emerging Latin art. As a constantly growing demographic within the United States, developments within Latin art can no longer be ignored without consequence to the state of visual art as a whole. This platform is a surprisingly overlooked devotion to the subject not represented anywhere else in the Miami art fair marketplace. By offering a section devoted to the exploration of new trends and ideas surround emerging Latin art, Verge is poised to act at the forefront of an otherwise underserved and underrepresented realm of artistic production.
COLLECTIVES & PROJECTS
Since the onset of the Recession, a growing movement among artists has taken hold to organize into collective and artistic groups who have taken charge of their own reception in the public sphere. These groups often operate at the fringes of commercial centers, in places remote from and yet accessible to traditional commercial centers. This has translated in the realm of emerging art as a unique approach to participation in the art marketplace. Freed from the constraints of previous decades’ definition of collectives as anti-capital or even hybridized independent approaches to their own public reception, these groups have evolved into saavy operators capable of fully delivering on the needs of their own self-interests. Verge is invested in providing an alternative platform for these groups and their projects.

October 16, 2010, New York, NY—Bringing a fresh voice and perspective to the mainstream art circuit, ZOOM Contemporary Art Fair announces their inaugural event will showcase the multifarious styles, media, and genres permeating the burgeoning contemporary arts scene of the Middle East and its diaspora. ZOOM presents a cohesive perspective that uses exhibitions, educational programming, and curatorial input to foster an interconnected discourse. Exploring an unconventional framework, ZOOM’s Selection Committee is comprised of curators Sam Bardaouil (Art Reoriented) and Shamim M. Momin (Los Angeles Nomadic Division LAND, former Whitney Museum), who together with Director Angeliki Georgiou have produced an intimate collection of 20 exhibitions showcasing artists by non-profit organizations and galleries from 11 countries.

ZOOM gives much deserved exposure to a burgeoning Middle Eastern art community while establishing itself as the essential gathering place for collectors, artists and art professionals.
“ZOOM’s genius lies in its focused yet open-ended approach,†says Sam Bardaouil, co-founder and curator of Art Reoriented. “By changing its thematic focus it will allow for a succession of worthy explorations which, while adding to the diversity of the international art fair scene, can allow for an educational experience accessible to the international arts crowd.” Debates, ZOOM’s educational program curated by Art Reoriented, will bring together notable international figures that will address current contemporary Middle Eastern art issues. Hosted at the neighboring Bass Museum of Art in Miami Beach, Debates participants include Susan Cotter, Curator of Exhibitions, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi Project; William Wells, Founding Director of Cairo’s Townhouse; Jessica Morgan, the Daskalopoulos Curator, International Art, Tate Modern; Francois Pouillon, Department Head of the History of Mediterranean Islamic Program at École Des Hautes Études En Sciences Sociales; Livia Alexander, Executive Director of ArteEast; León Krempel, Curator, Haus der Kunst, Munich and internationally renowned artists Sara Rahbar and Ahmed Mater.

Bar 721
721 N Lincoln Lane
Miami Beach, FL 33139
M’DELA “A music superhero defending love one dance floor at a time…”
and Bar 721 would like to invite you to a fun Meet & Greet cocktail and the Video release for her new single “Siempre Te Amare” (Love Song) based on The Cure’s classic hit.
…DVD giveaways and a chance to win an iPad loaded with M’DELA content.
For more information visit www.mdela.com and her facebook page.
M’DELA Bio:
As a little girl, M’DELA would roam around her living room in Lima, Peru, holding her plastic recorder as a microphone and singing along to the songs of ABBA, Olivia Newton-John, and The Cure. Who knew that her ‘kid’ performances would evolve into a long music career?
Always rooted in the music, she fell in love with the dance music of the 80s and 90s and absorbed all the pop and rock influences from Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, Blondie, New Order, Erasure, The Cure, Flock of Seagulls, Eurythmics, B-52’s, Michael Jackson, and Softcell.
“Siempre Te Amare” came to life with her adaptation of the The Cure’s “Love Song” in Spanish, “it really spoke to me…†confessed the singer/songwriter and in her words she said, “it reflects the longing for true love and, at the same time, the promise that love will triumph over evil.â€
The song was produced in Mexico City by the country’s top remixing producer Charly Gutierrez (DJ Carlos G) whose work includes over 400 remixes from top selling artists such as Paulina Rubio. The video was shot in South Beach with the famous Miami skyline in the background. The production is ready for a 2010 fall release.
M’DELA’s venture into the Dance Music world stems from a professional career as an award-winning songwriter and successful performances in Latin America.

Aqua Art Miami is pleased to announce its return to the fair’s original location – the Aqua Hotel in the heart of South Beach. During the frst week in December, and running simultaneously with Art Basel Miami Beach, this boutique hotel will be trans- formed into a hub for innovative contemporary art programming, represented by the 43 galleries exhibiting there this year.
After a break in 2009, during which the fair focused on its Wynwood location, this return to the original hotel venue where the fair frst began in 2005 is welcomed by many. “We are thrilled to be a part of Aqua’s comeback to South Beach, as it’s certainly one of the best hotel fairs in the U.S., if not internationally,†boasts an enthusiastic Kathy Murphy, publisher of Modern Painters magazine, who are sponsoring Aqua’s Preview Opening on the evening of December 1st.
Over the years, Aqua’s organizers Jaq Chartier and Dirk Park have made it their mission to promote progressive galleries with strong emerging artist programs from the West Coast, as well as from the greater United States and abroad. This curatorial commitment is complemented by the unique art fair setting of a classic South Beach hotel with spacious exhibition rooms that open onto a breezy, intimate courtyard. The surroundings have become a favorite gathering spot not only for relaxation during the busy Art Basel week, but also as a place to exchange and disseminate new contemporary art ideas. And with its close proximity to the main Art Basel fair, Aqua Art Miami has consistently been ranked among the top satellite art events by collectors, artists, curators, critics and the art loving public alike.
Throughout its tenure, a number of new galleries have made their Miami art fair debuts at Aqua. This year is no exception with Walker Contemporary from Boston and Nudashank from Baltimore, among the newcomers. The fair is also thrilled to welcome back many of its veterans, including Seattle’s Platform Gallery, Gregory Lind Gallery & Eleanor Harwood Gallery from San Francisco, PDX from Portland, and Philip Slein Gallery from St. Louis. Local Miami art dealers are represented by Harold Golen and Cancio Contemporary, while our Canadian neighbors to the north have dispatched Birch Libralato and Katharine Mulherin Contemporary of Toronto, as well as Montreal’s Pierre-François Ouellette Art Contemporain.
The fair’s organizers are quite optimistic that with this year’s “return to form†and with the recent upswing of the art market, this will be one of the most successful incarnations of Aqua Art Miami during their six-year history of producing the event. Plus it’s great to be “back to the beachâ€.

It was a spectacular night where art, fashion and a wonderful cause collided and brought you the Go Red For Women 2010 Red Dress Fashion Show in Miami Beach. The art was the Bass Museum where the show was held, while the Fashion was by Perry Ellis International and the cause was the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women movement.
The evening started out with a fun Pre-Show Reception as the models got ready in some of Perry Ellis International’s beautiful lines of clothing. The Fashion Show was up next as the models strutted their stuff down the runway. Heart survivors were among some of the lovely models taking the cat walk that night. This was an evening to remember in the fight against heart disease! After the show was a Post-Party by PRIMP Hair Salon, one of the Fashion Show’s sponsors.
The cornerstone of the Miami Go Red movement, the Go Red For Women 2010 Red Dress Fashion Show is held during Miami’s Fall Fashion Week. The Miami Red Dress Fashion Show unites supporters of art, fashion, and health to bring critical attention to Heart Disease & Women. Symbolizing women’s fight against heart disease, the Red Dress is the icon of this international show.
In February 2004, American Heart Month, the American Heart Association (AHA) launched the Go Red for Women campaign as a critical step toward raising women’s awareness that heart disease is the number one cause of death for Women.
Through this campaign, we will empower women with the knowledge and tools they need to make positive lifestyle changes that will help reduce their risk of heart disease. Nationally, the color of Red will be promoted as the symbol for heart disease and to further establish the AHA as the leading authority on the subject.

The 9th annual Miami International Wine Fair (“MIWFâ€) presented its largest program to date with more than 1,800 wines from 18 countries and 70,000 exhibitor square-feet featuring the world’s top-rated wines. Organizers extended the traditional two-day event into a comprehensive four-day trade, education and grand tasting program. The first day, October 14, 2010, offered exclusive trade seminars catering to the exhibitors, while tastings and seminars were open to the public on October 15 and 16 at the Miami Beach Convention Center. On Sunday, October 17, closing festivities took place off-site with the hugely successful inaugural “Ceviche Throwdown,†a charity event produced in partnership with SUGARCANE raw bar grill and South Florida Foodies.
“We are very excited about the result of this year’s Wine Fair,†said David Bernad, MIWF founder and president. “Not only does the economy seem to be on a path to recovery, but we are seeing more foreign producers than ever determined to invest in the United States wine market. With wine consumption lagging in Europe and across the world, wineries are flocking to our Fair to establish new distribution channels while solidifying their existing relationships.â€
2010 Fair highlights include:
• Castilla La Mancha announced wine sales upward of 50,000 cases to California and Texas retail chains
• Eighteen percent more wines were available for tasting at this year’s Fair
• Seven percent increase in ticket sales, which led to a total attendance of more than 6,800 visitors
• Newcomer, Wines of Chile, stood-out with their presentation of exceptional wineries by wearing yellow mining helmets on Saturday, October 16, as a tribute to the 33 miners rescued from the San Jose Mine just three days prior
• Sold-out seminars, including “Sushi & Sake†by SUSHISAMBA and “How To Taste Wine – Objectively!â€
Further, Castilla La Mancha held a reception at the Fontainebleau on Friday, October 15 to unveil its newest collection of wines. In attendance was José Luis MartÃnez Guijarro, President of Fundación Tierra de Viñedos and Regional Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development for Spain’s Castilla La Mancha; City of Miami Mayor Tomas Regalado; Commissioner Deedee Weithorn; Chief of Staff Michael Llorente; and master of ceremonies Jorge Estevez of CBS television, who joined local community and business leaders, food and wine enthusiasts, and VIP guests.
Wine buyers raved about the unique experience and diverse selection of wines the Fair had to offer:
• “One of the few wine industry shows that affords the opportunity to meet with numerous owners and representatives of wines that are not currently imported in the United States market.†– Eric Blanz, Liberty Wine Selections, New York
• “The only wine fair in the United States that truly has a diverse range of splendid wines representing countries from all over the world.” – Matt Reibel, Wine Gallery, Massachusetts
• “Outstanding quality and diversified wines abound.” – Alan Sazant, Cellar Masters of South Florida, Florida
• “The quality of wine and opportunity to work with new suppliers to the US market, make this a ‘can’t miss’ event.†– Douglas Due, Grocery Outlet, California
Parallel to its public appeal, MIWF offered Latin American and European wine producers a platform to forge valuable trade relationships. As a result of the 2010 agenda, more than 1,900 meetings were secured between wine buyers and exhibitors. On the heels of last year’s success, an expanded wine buyer program; an industry-only tasting and targeted wine dinners were major components of the Fair. Organizers wrapped-up the ninth edition successfully, exceeding last year’s achievements and visitor expectations.

Drink Specials ALL NIGHT!
A little bit about Zaida and the drifters:
The new acoustic trio known as “Zaida & the Drifters†consists of masculine and feminine musicality coming together as one. The magic happened when Tony Cruz, an active musician in the South Florida music scene, and David Denmark, a drummer aficionado (aka The Drifters) discovered the local singer Zaida – a Miami native who had learned to play piano from her mother by age twelve and had released her first album ‘Train Ride’ in 2000. Together and with a new collection of original songs and a growing repertoire of eclectic material, The Drifters and The Songstress make every performance an intimate experience. Each song tells a story and each lyric absorbed. If music is a window to the soul then Zaida and The Drifters are inviting us to peek in to theirs….

Icons and Legends
Nikki Beach welcomes ‘ICONS & LEGENDS’, an exhibit by world renowned pop artist Steve Kaufman during Art Basel 2010
December 2 to 4, 2010
6PM-9PM
Nikki Beach Miami • One Ocean Drive Miami, Florida 33139
The cost is $20 per person and includes complimentary cocktails and hors d’oeuvres. Exhibit runs December 2nd – 4th from 5-8pm
Global luxury lifestyle entertainment group Nikki Beach is thrilled to announce that the iconic talents of legendary pop artist, Steve Kaufman, former assistant to Andy Warhol, will be shown from December 2 to 4, 2010 at Nikki Beach Miami during the international art festival, Art Basel. A much heralded event, with over 100 unique and timeless pop art pieces will be on display in Club 01, the sultry nightclub located upstairs from the beach club.
Kaufman, a truly inspired and gifted artist, not only committed his life to his craft, he was also a dedicated philanthropist, involved in over 175 charities bringing awareness to such issues as racial harmony, AIDS and homelessness. Working briefly as Andy Warhol’s assistant and ultimately completing unfinished portraits for Warhol’s clients, Kaufman moved on to became a world-renowned artist in his own right, creating portraits of Frank Sinatra, Muhammad Ali, John Travolta, Marilyn Monroe and many others. His too-soon passing in early February 2010 was a devastating blow to the international art world. “Guests attending this event will have the chance to purchase his truly unique, original and one of a kind artâ€, said Chris Raphael, a close friend of Kaufman when he was alive. Nikki Beach Miami is truly honored to host the works of this great artist during Art Basel 2010. This is an event that is not to be missed. The cost is $20 per person and includes complimentary cocktails and hors d’oeuvres. Exhibit runs December 2nd – 4th from 5-8pm. Event information http://www.nikkibeach.com/miami/events.php.
In 1998, Nikki Beach introduced the world to the ultimate beach club concept bringing dining, fashion, art, music and entertainment together. As quoted by the London Observer as “The Sexiest Place on Earthâ€, over a decade later, Nikki Beach continues to make its mark in the world’s hottest addresses and trendsetting locales, recently claiming the #1 spot in Travel Channel’s World’s Sexiest Beach Bars. The Nikki Beach concept has transcended its international venues and grown into a global lifestyle company with a seasonal clothing line; a sun care and fragrance line; Marketing and Public Relations Divisions; Global Sponsorships and Special Events; Nikki Beach Music; Nikki Beach Beauty; a VIP and Concierge program; and a Hotel and Resorts Division with 10 new locations to open starting in 2012. The Nikki Beach lifestyle can now be experienced in twelve cities, in eight different countries with more locations to come in the near future: Miami Beach, Florida, USA; St.Tropez, France; Cannes, France; St. Barth, French West Indies; Marbella, Spain; Cabo San Lucas, Mexico; New York City, New York, USA; Marrakech, Morocco; Koh Samui, Thailand; Cabarete, Dominican Republic; Toronto, Canada; and soon Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.

LOGO Projects presents Christine Lyall
11/1/2010-2/12/2011, M-F: 10am-5pm and by appointment
LOGO Projects at Ocean Ophthalmology Group
1400 NE Miami Gardens Drive, Suite 203
North Miami Beach, FL 33179
LOGO Projects in conjunction with Ocean Ophthalmology Group is pleased to present new works by artist Christine Lyall alongside an extension of Absolute Adriano, a survey featuring over 30 paintings and drawings by Adriano Nicot. Both collections will be on view from November 1st, 2010 through February 12th, 2011. Patients and the public alike are encouraged to visit Ocean Ophthalmology and peruse both showcases – LOGO Projects is an experiment in converting traditional professional business offices into alternative gallery spaces.
Christine Lyall’s formal artistic practice began after being diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. She found that creating art—especially complex, repetitive patterns and designs—helped to clear the cobwebs in her brain and calm her mind. Says Lyall, “The obsessive thoughts and nervous energy are still there, but I try to channel both into something productive and beautiful…I think everyone occasionally experiences feelings of fear, emotional conflict and self-doubt—especially when our dreams and our realities collide and we realize how different they are.”
Lyall often explores these episodes of conflict in her work, representing them with imagery such as ropes snaking through holes dotting a canvas, or with fragments of faded material snagged on a piece of rusty barbed wire. Using everything from conventional painting and drawing materials to matches, fabric remnants and beads, Lyall creates works that range in style and complexity from simple line drawings to multi-layered, three-dimensional structures.
Although her artwork is inherently personal, Lyall’s message is ultimately universal and simple: While the human experience is complex, confusing and sometimes painful, it also is beautiful and worth examining.
Adriano Nicot’s Absolute Adriano highlights pieces in which the artist explores the mystical underpinnings of the daily. In Nicot’s hands chickens, chairs, and babies alike are all imbued with a heavy yet inexplicable symbolism. A couple matter-of-factly holds hands under a hovering fish and clowns (or are these ladies of high fashion?) hollowly meet the viewer’s gaze, daring us to laugh (or to not laugh?). The artist’s austere marks are often strongly reminiscent of prehistoric cave paintings, his smoky compositions are always both timeless and reverent. Nicot’s work is catalogued online: http://www.picturetrail.com/nicot
LOGO Projects is a non-profit program dedicated to matching artists and curators with professional business spaces. The program was founded by Kharis Kennedy, a New York-based artist, and Dr. Kevin Stewart. Dr. Stewart, a fellowship-trained glaucoma specialist from New York, relocated to Miami in 2008 to open Ocean Ophthalmology Group with Jesse Pelletier, MD, a cornea & refractive surgery specialist from Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.

The 9th Annual Miami International Wine Fair
October 14–17, 2010
Miami Beach Convention Center
By Talmage Thornhill
What an adventure! Traveling around the world via libation was the escapade of the day at the Miami International Wine Fair.
There were too many scrumptious samples to delineate all of them in their entirety, but suffice to say the choices were plentiful enough to please any palate. My favorite regions were Catalonia, which was much larger than I expected, and my old standard Chile. Peru had some interesting offerings as well.
Most of the hosts we encountered were friendly and somewhat nonchalant, but a few stood out as exceptionally enthusiastic. Some were also notable for their apparent lack of interest in laypeople like us, who did not have the power to bring their product to the US like the buyers and distributors whose attention they coveted. Many of the wines we tasted were not available for purchase in this country yet, and the goal of their representatives was understandably to change that. Across the board, everyone was generous with their pours and knowledge.
Traveling around the different areas was what really made the event special for me. The personalities and ethnicities mirrored the countries represented, so diversity was abundant. It wasn’t just wine that was available, either. Tequila, vodka, and new products such as canned bubbly wine were also present. The size, scope, and layout of the room were ideal: not too big to manage, not too small to get bored. The event provided some light food, but with such limited time, why focus on anything other than liquid love?
The Wine Fair was a great event. In the end we walked away satisfied and happy but not thrilled or blown away. By the time we arrived, in the evening when the event was open to the public, some vendors had run out of samples or were exhausted from a long day. Next year I’m campaigning for a VIP pass nice and early!

Felipe Lamoglia is a Grammy-winning saxophonist, composer and arranger. Born and educated in Cuba, he is a graduate of the prestigious Superior Institute of Art (ISA). By the age of 18 he was a member of Cuba’s acclaimed dance band, NG La Banda. In 1992 he moved to Brazil where he lived for seven years, absorbing the country’s musical and spiritual wealth and playing with great artists such as Raul de Souza, Arismar do Espirito Santo and others. With Bocato he recorded two albums and participated in the Montreux Jazz Festival. While in Brazil, Felipe founded his own quartet, Tumbao, and taught at the University of Free Music in Sao Paolo.
In 1999 Lamoglia relocated to the U.S. where he immediately began performing with the late Celia Cruz. In 2001 he began playing with Grammy winner Arturo Sandoval, performing all over the world and recording on Trumpet Evolution, as well as two DVD releases: Live at the Blue Note NYC and Live at the Ann Arbor Summer Festival. In 2004 he joined Grammy winner Gonzalo Rubalcaba, recording on his Grammy-nominated album, Paseo (Blue Note).
In 2006 Lamoglia arranged and played on Ignacio Berroa’s debut album Codes, also released on Blue Note and nominated for a Grammy. In 2007 Felipe contributed as arranger, performer, and composer for Arturo Sandoval’s Grammy-winning album, Rumba Palace.

Felipe has shared the stage with musical giants such as Herbie Hancock, Michael Brecker, Wynton Marsalis, Eldar, Dafnis Prieto, Ignacio Berroa and many others, participating in Major Jazz Festivals in the U.S. and abroad including JVC, Playboy, Newport, Henieken Jazz, Red Sea and in venues such as Blue Note, Iridium, Jazz Standard, Yoshi’s, Dizzy’s Club Coca Cola and many more.

Thania Sanz
Tuesday, October 19, 11 PM
1342 Washington Ave., South Beach
305-673-9372
Jose Negroni is a pianist and composer of remarkable creativity and brilliance. He has worked with pop artists Chayanne, Carmita Jimenez, Yolandita Monge, Jose Luis Rodriguez and Braulio among others, as well as with Jazz greats Ed Calle on saxophone, percussionist Sammy Figueroa, trombonist Juan Pablo Torres and renowned violinist Federico Britos.
In 1995 Negroni moved to Miami where he became Creative Manager for Sony Music Publishing Latin, mentoring and signing many young writers, meanwhile developing his own compositions and concepts. His first album, “Naturaleza/Nature” on Universal Music Latino, contains elements of jazz, pop and Latin music and pays tribute to the spirit of his native island in tunes such as ‘Isla’, ‘Coqui, Coqui’ (which refers to the little frog with its characteristic cry which only dwells in Puerto Rico) and ‘Nature’, the title track of the album, inspired by the fresh and rich landscape of Puerto Rico’s natural paradise.
As a member of a new generation of Puerto Rican artists, whose sensibility goes beyond salsa, Negroni is obviously involved in a grand love affair with the acoustic piano and his music has a delightful beauty, anchored in jazz with hints of classical lyricism and New Age.
Grammy nominee Thania Sanz graduated from one of the most prestigious schools for jazz and composition, the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Her love of performing with her guitar and original material has led her to be known like one of the best live acts in Los Angeles and Miami. She has produced and recorded 4 cd’s, where you can hear her sophisticated approach, musically and lyrically, and her sensitivity in performing them. Her songwriting, singing style, and musical vision can take us through beautiful journeys of passion for life, like the troubadours of the old days.

Celebrate our Quince!
Friday, November 12 at 8pm
Fontainebleau Miami Beach
www.wolfsonian.org
Put on your dancing shoes and help us celebrate our Quince! That’s right, The Wolfsonian is turning fifteen (and you thought we were born yesterday). To mark our coming of age, celebrate our accomplishments, and pay homage to our many friends, the Wolfsonian Visonaries are throwing the museum a fantastic, Miami-style Quince. “This is going to be a very fun party, one of the best of the season,” says Gingi Beltran, Wolfsonian Visionary Quince co-chair and vice president of The Patton Group, Inc.
Join us on Friday, November 12 at 8pm as we dine and dance the night away. The place? An oceanfront ballroom and outdoor terrace at Fontainebleau Miami Beach. The sounds? Miami’s own Grammy-nominated Latin jazz band, Conjunto Progreso, led by Johnny Aguiló, and DJ-about-town Jody McDonald. The food? Excellent, the best the Fontainebleau chefs can whip up. The libations? Spirits generously provided by Bacardi. Dress? Festive black tie, and why not wear a tiara and gloves while you’re at it? The cause? Funds raised by the Quince will help The Wolfsonian continue to do what we have done so well for the past fifteen years—bring you thought-provoking exhibitions, innovative academic and public programs, grow the unique collection, and stimulate thinking about the significance of design in our lives both historically and today.
“The Wolfsonian is a jewel in our city. It has made a major contribution to our community and it is such a respected museum internationally,” notes Beltran. “Look at all it has done. It is truly amazing that The Wolfsonian has accomplished all of this in only fifteen years.”
The Quince is the first major event to be planned and hosted by the newly formed Wolfsonian Visionaries. Event chairs, in addition to Beltran, are Adrian De Brasi and Jaime Odabachian. “We have been so honored that The Wolfsonian has allowed us to organize the ball. It has been a fantastic creative experience,” says Beltran. The Visionaries are a group of community leaders, many from the art and design world, who work with The Wolfsonian to plan events and who are engaged in an ongoing dialog with the museum, providing ideas and feedback in areas such as programming and fundraising. The group is open to new members; meetings are the second Monday of each month at The Wolfsonian from 6-8pm. Anyone interested in joining should contact ian@thewolf.fiu.edu or 305.535.2631.
The Quince is part of our annual Very Wolfsonian Weekend event on November 11-13, the whole of which is dedicated to celebrating fifteen years of The Wolfsonian.

KCC Productions and Jazid present the LeNard Rutledge Ensemble Tuesday, November 2, from 11 PM – 2 AM. Jazid is located at 1342 Washinton Avenue, South Beach. For more information call 305-673-9372 or visit jazid.net.
Captivating, soul stirring, earthy and funky. These are just some of the words used to describe the song stylings of LeNard Rutledge. Growing up in Miami, Florida, LeNard was always surrounded by many different musical styles. His parents had an extensive music collection ranging from Classical, Jazz, Hymns and the funk of James Brown.
In the fall of 1984, LeNard went to St. Augustine’s College in Raleigh, NC. LeNard was awarded a Band Scholarship by Dr. Harold Jeffries (Director of Bands). It was in Raleigh when LeNard’s musical journey took flight. In the fall of 1984, he recorded two jingles for WLLE, a local AM radio station. He played drums, co-wrote and sang background vocals. He played timpani and general percussion in the Concert band and was the back–up drummer for the Jazz Ensemble. After a year of hinting and periodic begging, LeNard got his first big break. In the fall of 1986, LeNard sang the ballad “Teach Me Tonight†at the Annual Spring Concert. His confidence grew as he sang more songs, which led to other projects such as studio work and voice-over jobs. For fear of letting his drumming chops falter, LeNard played at area clubs to keep the rust away. A musical friend (Rick Best) introduced him to song writing.
In 1992, Stanley Baird, an area saxophonist, asked LeNard to submit songs for his upcoming CD, Stop, Look & Listen. Stan recorded three of his songs and released them on his label, Saxony Records. In 1995, LeNard submitted two of those songs to the Billboard Songwriting Contest. One of the songs, “So In Love (with you)” placed in the top 1% of 50,000 R&B entries. In the fall of 1995, he returned for a while to Miami. Needing extra cash to return to school, a childhood friend, Alan Morley told him he could earn extra money producing Rap and Hip-Hop Music. He introduced him to Gary Bradshaw (a Miami Rapper). From October 1995 to January 1996, LeNard “ghost wrote†and produced 9 original tracks for Gary. After returning to school in January of 1996, LeNard made the Dean’s List and Graduated in May 1997 with a B.S. Degree in Industrial Hygiene and Safety.
In May 1997, LeNard moved back to Miami. In October 1997, LeNard auditioned as a vocalist for the Melton Mustafa Orchestra. He got the gig and was the featured vocalist until 2003. LeNard has been a featured vocalist at area jazz spots in South Florida. The Museum of Contemporary Art, the Van Dyke Café and O’Hara’s Jazz Pub are the most notable. LeNard has shared the stage with a number of highly respectable jazz artists such as: Nnenna Freelon, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Kenny Drew Jr., and Harry Allen. In May of 2006, LeNard was named BEST JAZZ ARTIST, by the Miami New Times magazine. His first CD, Hello World, was released in November

New Jazz from the Netherlands
As part of the New Cool of the jazz scene in the Netherlands Benjamin Herman blows away every cliché while working hard to return jazz to the dance floor, and building bridges between the mainstream, improvisational jazz and the pop scene. He began his career when he received a saxophone as a bar mitzvah present. Since then, Benjamin has become known as the hardest-working, sharpest-dressing and most original musician in the Netherlands. He is the winner of several Edison awards (the Dutch Grammys). Joining him are some of Holland’s finest players. Bassist Ernst Glerum has worked with Steve Lacy, Lee Konitz, Han Bennink and John Zorn. Guitarist Anton Goudsmit has worked with Tony Allen, Han Bennink and John Zorn, and is a founding member of the Ploctones. Anton appeared here at the Byron Carlyle two years ago with Eric Vloeimans. Drummer Joost Patocka performs with the Beets, Carolyn Breuer, Ernst Glerum, Jazz Cats, and Five Up High.
“Benjamin Herman seems to re-invent himself for each CD. While his style and sound remain recognizable, his borders extend each time.” Jazz
“This is music that also scores high on an international scale … with this release he will likely become too big for our country!”
– Jazzism Magazine (Netherlands)

Silvano composed, performed & co- produced two songs, including the title track, of the 2008 GRAMMY-nominated album, “The Magician”, by Sammy Figueroa & His Latin Jazz Explosion. This wonderful CD has been nominated as “Best Latin Jazz Album of the Year”. The 4th World Ensemble, emerging in 2007 from Monasterios’ desire to experiment with the fusion of Latin Rhythms, World Music and Pure Jazz, features Monasterios on piano, accompanied by percussion, drums, bass and saxophone. The ensemble performs all original music composed and arranged by Silvano Monasterios.
“The Luckiest Penny” at the Ability Explosion
October 21st at 12:15
Miami Beach Convention Center
Featured on the Resource & Technology and Education Expo
It is FREE
“The Luckiest Penny” is an interactive all original musical that shares why “Self-worth has NO price tag!” It is seen through the eyes of two rare, pure copper 1943 pennies. Allister, believes that he is perfect because he lives in a plastic case which has protected him from taking life’s tumbles. Henrietta, on the other hand, is a tossed about penny with different abilities, who knows what is really important in life. The mission of the production is to accept each other’s different ABILITIES through a FUN and whimsical way! Here’s what Laura Duksta, Author, New York Times Bestseller, of I Love You More said: “The Luckiest Penny gives us all an opportunity to look at what we value about ourselves and other. It is an engaging story that encourages the conversation of self-worth and love!

The Webster
1220 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach, FL

By Talmage Thornhill
The Webster is undeniably cool. It has a pricey boutique with several different merchandise brands on the first and second floors. There’s a restaurant whose menu looks delectable, but so far I have only been tempted enough to try the rooftop bar and lounge.
Quite the chic sobe experience, everything about this place is hip: beautiful people, comfortable seating, exciting open view of Collins Ave from above, and eclectic, interesting music. In fact, the Thursday night DJ is one of the most creative cats spinning records I’ve heard in Miami in quite some time.
They have an excellent late night happy hour, during which cocktails are a mere $5. Paula, our cocktail server for the night, was as gorgeous as the bottle girls at Mynt and Mokäi but thankfully omits the snooty, I-deserve-all-of-your-money-and-you-are-lucky-to-be-here-attitude that too frequently accompanies so many of her contemporaries. The drinks are strong and there’s not a plastic cup in sight.
The bathrooms are downstairs, a bit far from the rooftop, but that’s the only thing that doesn’t basically totally rock about this joint.
I can’t wait to go back!

Captivating, soul stirring, earthy and funky. These are just some of the words used to describe the song stylings of LeNard Rutledge. Growing up in Miami, Florida, LeNard was always surrounded by many different musical styles. His parents had an extensive music collection ranging from Classical, Jazz, Hymns and the funk of James Brown.
In the fall of 1984, LeNard went to St. Augustine’s College in Raleigh, NC. LeNard was awarded a Band Scholarship by Dr. Harold Jeffries (Director of Bands). It was in Raleigh when LeNard’s musical journey took flight. In the fall of 1984, he recorded two jingles for WLLE, a local AM radio station. He played drums, co-wrote and sang background vocals. He played timpani and general percussion in the Concert band and was the back–up drummer for the Jazz Ensemble. After a year of hinting and periodic begging, LeNard got his first big break. In the fall of 1986, LeNard sang the ballad “Teach Me Tonight†at the Annual Spring Concert. His confidence grew as he sang more songs, which led to other projects such as studio work and voice-over jobs. For fear of letting his drumming chops falter, LeNard played at area clubs to keep the rust away. A musical friend (Rick Best) introduced him to song writing.
In 1992, Stanley Baird, an area saxophonist, asked LeNard to submit songs for his upcoming CD, Stop, Look & Listen. Stan recorded three of his songs and released them on his label, Saxony Records. In 1995, LeNard submitted two of those songs to the Billboard Songwriting Contest. One of the songs, “So In Love (with you)” placed in the top 1% of 50,000 R&B entries. In the fall of 1995, he returned for a while to Miami. Needing extra cash to return to school, a childhood friend, Alan Morley told him he could earn extra money producing Rap and Hip-Hop Music. He introduced him to Gary Bradshaw (a Miami Rapper). From October 1995 to January 1996, LeNard “ghost wrote†and produced 9 original tracks for Gary. After returning to school in January of 1996, LeNard made the Dean’s List and Graduated in May 1997 with a B.S. Degree in Industrial Hygiene and Safety.
In May 1997, LeNard moved back to Miami. In October 1997, LeNard auditioned as a vocalist for the Melton Mustafa Orchestra. He got the gig and was the featured vocalist until 2003. LeNard has been a featured vocalist at area jazz spots in South Florida. The Museum of Contemporary Art, the Van Dyke Café and O’Hara’s Jazz Pub are the most notable. LeNard has shared the stage with a number of highly respectable jazz artists such as: Nnenna Freelon, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Kenny Drew Jr., and Harry Allen. In May of 2006, LeNard was named BEST JAZZ ARTIST, by the Miami New Times magazine. His first CD, Hello World, was released in November.

Peruvian American Chamber Of Commerce Of South Florida To Present “Taste Of Peruâ€, Debut A Peruvian Pavilion And Offer Seminars At 14th Americas Food & Beverage Show
The Americas Food & Beverage Show hosts its first-ever open to the public event, “Taste of Peruâ€, a celebration of Peruvian Food, Spirits and Specialties.
The food of the Andes will be showcased, for the first time, at this year’s Americas Food & Beverage Show on October 23 – 24, the weekend preceding the trade show (open to the public), and October 25 – 27, 2010 (trade only) at the Miami Beach Convention Center. The show organizers, World Trade Center Miami, have partnered with the Peruvian American Chamber of Commerce of South Florida (PACCSF) to bring this new element to fruition, which includes cuisine-related activities such as an inauguration cocktail, seminars, dance performances, contests, tastings and cooking demos.
In recent years, Peruvian food has become a global cuisine and is the new darling of the culinary world. In Miami, Florida alone, there’s an estimated 135 Peruvian restaurants. Julio Rodriguez, President of the PACCSF, has made it his mission to promote the innovation and sophistication of the foods and beverages of his native Peru. As such, in addition to the weekend festivities named above, he has organized two seminars, taking place Monday, October 25th. The first, hosted by a renowned Peruvian Chef, will focus on special ingredients, chef secrets, recipes and other like topics. The latter seminar will spotlight how to successfully launch a Peruvian food & beverage business.
The PACCSF will also be debuting the Peruvian Pavilion. According to Rodriguez, eight companies will be exhibiting at the Peruvian Pavilion with coffees, Piscos, beverages, seafood and other food products. “Peru has 84 of 104 ecosystems that exist in the world making its ingredients and dishes as varied as the imagination itself,†said Rodriguez.
“Given the Free Trade Agreement between Peru and the United States, working closely with Peru was a natural choice,†said Charlotte Gallogly, President of the World Trade Center Miami. “The participation of countries like Peru underscores the scope and reach of our trade show as we become more and more international and continue to contribute to cross-border trade.”
Additionally, two Peruvian chef teams will be competing in the VI Annual Americas Chef Competition scheduled for October 26-27, 2010. Visit www.peruchamberusa.com to learn more about the weekend-long Peruvian activities. Tickets available for purchase online at myticketusa.com. For more information, contact the PACCSF at 786-290 2899 / info@peruchamberusa.com.
The World Trade Center Miami is a member of the World Trade Centers Association which is the preeminent global trade organization promoting two-way trade. There are 321 World Trade Centers located in 91 countries with a total membership of 2 million corporate members and associates. In the Western Hemisphere, there are more than 50 World Trade Centers either in operation or in the planning and/or construction stage.
