Smirnoff Ice and Univision Radio Summer Concert Series Featuring R.K.M & Ken-y 8/6/10

Smirnoff Ice and Univision Radio Launch Second Summer Concert Series Featuring Latin Music Artists

Univision Radio and Smirnoff Ice launch their second Summer Concert Series in Miami featuring chart-topping Latin music artists, this time enlisting the social media savvy public relations and ad house hybrid The brpr Group, conveniently based here in Miami. This summer, the series kicks-off seaside at Nikki Beach with Grammy nominated reggaeton duo R.K.M & Ken-y.

R.K.M & Ken-y, both from Puerto Rico, got their start after being noticed by Omar Fernando and Raphy Pina, two reggaeton moguls who quickly signed the duo. Since then, R.K.M & Ken-y have been an unstoppable force in the industry and audience favorites among the Hispanic public. Their first hit single, “Down”, reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart in 2006, and their album reached platinum status with over 600,000 copies sold internationally.

Like most Univision Radio events, the concert promises to be a social media frenzy, open only to contest winners who will have scored their passes by competing on several online platforms. R.K.M & Ken-y fans will have their chance at winning these free tickets by participating in trivia pop-quizzes on Twitter, local college campus “Barcoding”, which encourages students to add user-generated media content through the new and innovative social media retail network Stickybits, Foursquare check-ins mentioning Smirnoff Ice, and by broadcasting their inner “reggaetonero” via the Smirnoff Ice YouTube Channel and Facebook Fan Page. While Trivia champions and “Barcoders” will receive general admission passes to the hot summer concert, winning “reggaetoneros” will be awarded VIP entry, granting them access to the Smirnoff Ice Cooling Spot and exclusive concert after party. Winners of Twitter Trivia, or by any other virtual means, will be embarked upon a social media scavenger hunt using the aforementioned platforms to officially redeem their passes at an undisclosed location in Miami Beach.

The brpr Group’s resident TJ “Twitter Jockey”, Manu Gabaldon, will be on the scene during this highly anticipated reggaeton extravaganza orchestrating the concert’s stream of consciousness while on the 1’s and 2.0’s, with help from SocialBuzz TV and USTREAM, making the concert especially interactive by live-streaming audience tweets, twit-pics, and fan shots on the big screen. “We love what we do because we’re constantly creating and striving to innovate the digital space. The opportunity to work with Univision Radio on the Smirnoff Summer Concert Series is the perfect storm for the pioneer,” says the brpr Group’s Social Media Curator, Jennifer Batchelor, “merging music, food & beverage, social media, radio, and video 3.0, while allowing us to engage with the most ‘social’ sect of all, Hispanics.

FREEDOM ?: an art exhibition at CANDO Arts Co-Op 7/16/10

“FREEDOM ?: an art exhibition”
Friday, July 16, 2010, 4-9 p.m.
CANDO Arts Co-Op
309 23rd Street, Miami Beach
One block west of Collins Avenue
CANDO ARTS CO-OP on Facebook

ARE YOU FREE?

What shackles bind you? Are you tied up emotionally? Spiritually? Financially? Politically?

The resident and guest artists of CANDO Arts Co-Op have unleashed their creativity in a variety of media to express their feelings about what freedom means to them: having it, losing it, fighting for it. For one artist, it’s a commentary on women’s lib; for another, it’s a visual reminder of how fragile our society is, and yet for others it’s about physical barriers and how our hearts liberate us.

The interpretations are as varied and individual as the artists themselves and you can share their experiences at the Opening Reception of “Freedom ?: an art exhibition,” Friday, July 16, 4-9 p.m. at CANDO ARTS CO-OP, 309 23rd Street, Miami Beach, one block west of Collins Avenue. For more information, contact the gallery at 305.672.3336, or Paula Turk at myartshare@aol.com.

Bijoux Beach Miami launch at Miami SwimShow 7/17-20/10

Mandrake Public Relations Announces the Official Introduction of Bijoux Beach
Finally the Luxe Beachwear Line Has Come to Miami, Florida.

Bijoux Beach a line of sophisticated beachwear will finally take over Miami, Florida during its Miami launch, taking place this upcoming Miami SwimShow 2011 from July 17 through July 20, 2010. This annual event usually brings together the most popular and exotic lines of swimwear, as it is considered the largest and most important swimwear trade show in the world. It’s the perfect international platform for Bijoux Beach’s takeover, as this London-based line enters the golden and sunny beaches of the United States.

Bijoux Beach is characterized for delivering show-stopping beach glamour, while still making it look effortless. The line has been casting its hypnotizing spell all over the world, and is about to take the U.S. by storm. Formed in 2004, Bijoux Beach has already established an impressive presence as it guarantees premium fabrics and hand-finished components. Characteristics that will captivate and no doubt conquer its future targets as Bijoux Beach is set to include its swimsuits and transition dresses to New York, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

The Spring/Summer collection is all about show-stopping details, opulence and figure flattering silhouettes. Bijoux Beach’s design flair is showcased in pieces like the Tulla, a two-piece pleated suit, constructed with impeccable lines and handcrafted with a Perspex buckle detail. Bijoux Beach evokes women’s eternal feminine qualities and infuses them with luxury features. Each piece summons the beauty and confidence of the feminine body in timeless looks, featuring goddess-like details. And lets not forget about Bijoux Beach’s most recognized touch, its crystal embellishments on figure “fantastic” silhouettes, such as the Orbis. This one-piece stylish sensation not only showcases this season’s hottest color, Salmon, but also combines it with delicate crystal beading and royal peacock feathers.

As the Miami SwimShow brings together fashion connoisseurs in an international forum, Bijoux Beach will make its initial exultant steps into the United States where it will be appreciated and loved by every woman’s inner sophisticated beach goddess, who craves only the finest things in life. For more information contact Paola De Castro at 786-218-5540 or via email at paola@mandrakepr.com. The series of events will take place from July 17 – 20th at the Miami Beach Convention Center which will include a fashion show and cocktail parties.

Classic glamour is back and on the beach. Bijoux Beach is a Collection of Luxury beachwear that offers timeless, couture-focused cuts, finishes and luxurious fabrics in the season’s most evocative colors with embellishments such as Swarovski crystals, gold, corals, turquoise and other semi-precious stones. Bijoux Beach Collections draw influences from luxury nautical living: think extravagant yachts and undiscovered isles.

Neal Rosenthal :: Under the Radar Winemakers and the Indigenous Grapes of Italy

In its best and purest form wine must reflect a specific sense of place. Neal Rosenthal brings to the market distinctive wines that reflect this devotion to the concept of “terroir”.

“The role of the winemaker is to render the fundamental character of the wine in its most clear and precise form so that it speaks to us of its geographical origin, its birthplace as it were, and the special conditions obtained in the particular vintage… An overwhelming percentage of wine made today refers only to where it wants to be – not from where it comes.”

This Thursday, taste the terroir of Umbria and Valle d’Aosta in these outstanding selections from The Mad Rose Group.

Cistercensi Coenobium Bianco, 2008 Umbria, Organic
Bea Montefalco Rosso San Valentino, 2006 Umbria
Grosjean Petite Arvine Vigne Rovetta, 2008 Valle D’aosta
Grosjean Toretle Vigne Rovetta, 2006 Valle D’aosta

Photographs from Social Media Day in Miami at The Pelican Hotel on 6/30/10

Social Media Day in Miami at The Pelican Hotel on Wednesday, June 30, 2010. MIAMI edition presented by Mashable.com & The brpr Group for the Miami sect. This was a celebration for those Miami social media mavens!

Social Media Day – MIAMI edition presented by Mashable.com & The brpr Group
Last night was an epic celebration of everything Social Media, and our Miami festivities were the biggest in the southeast (and bigger than LA). Miamians have once again proven their digital prowess as over 100 Social Media aficionados “checked-in” to The Pelican Hotel and Restaurant on Ocean Drive, giving a whole new, flesh and bones meaning to the term Social Networking Site.

Social Media Day, or #SMDAY as we call it in the biz, is the creation of Mashable and Meetup was the HQ, calling upon each city’s Social Media Mavens and Maestros to organize their own observance as Pete Cashmore, CEO of Mashable explains, “I see social media day as the beginning. We would like you to use this platform to continue to organize regular Meetups in your area.”

The brpr Group was thrilled to answer the calling of the all-mighty Mashable as Agency Director, Christopher Renz, raves, “Being a part of the first ever Social Media Day is like being present for the first ever Valentine’s Day or St. Patrick’s Day. Ok, maybe not exactly the same, but it is huge — especially being on the ground and knowing how fast Social Media is growing. It was an honor for us at The brpr Group to be able to work with Mashable and we are very happy to help position Miami at the forefront of the revolution.”

SocialBuzzTV and USTREAM were large contributors, documenting this first ever Social Media Day extravaganza for the ages. Live streaming for nationwide bragging rights and an incredible postcelebration recap, already a YouTube sensation among those in the know, made Miami’s #SMDAY so much more than a “trending topic” on Twitter. Miami’s village voices were in full effect with The
Miami New Times, Soul of Miami, BizBash, and Miami Magazine, to name a few, as they bore witness to digital history in the making.

“If you’re in the business of Social Media, it’s really ‘Social Media Day’ everyday,” says Jennifer Batchelor, Social Media Curator for The brpr Group, “What makes today and this #SMDay celebration so special is the free bubbly with “check-in”. I mean, who doesn’t want to drink up while you Tweetup? But all Social Media nerd jokes aside, we are so grateful to the city of Miami and to Mashable for allowing us the opportunity to organize this gathering and celebrate the new school 2.0 tomfoolery with the finest digital media dynamos, community managers, and SMO pros in the industry.”

THE GENERAL (1926, US, Buster Keaton, 75 minutes, b&w, DVD)—Consistently ranked among the greatest films ever made, Buster Keaton’s The General is so brilliantly conceived and executed that it continues to inspire awe and laughter with every viewing. Rejected by the Confederate army as unfit and taken for a coward by his beloved Annabelle Lee, young Johnnie Gray sets out to single-handedly win the war with the help of his cherished locomotive. What follows is, without exaggeration, probably the most cleverly choreographed comedy ever recorded on celluloid. The Dynamo Café will also offer 2-for-1 beer and wine from 6-9pm on Dyno’Nites, especially designed as a venue for the local community to present their talent and knowledge.

Photographs of Hands Across the Sand on Miami Beach on 6/26/10

Hands Across the Sand on Miami Beach was held Saturday Morning, June 26, 2010.  Surfrider Foundation, the Sierra Club, Greenpeace, Environment Florida, 1Sky, ECOMB, and the Urban Paradise Guild for Hands Across the Sand – a global day of action to say NO to offshore drilling and YES to clean energy!  Millions of people joined hands on thousands of beaches around the world to draw a literal and figurative line in the sand protecting our coasts from any more oil disasters! The only way to ensure we never again see another Deepwater Horizon is to once and for all become free of our dependence on fossil fuels. The obstacles to this are not technical, or economic – they are political. Join us in sending a message loud and clear that we demand our leaders ban all new offshore drilling and start the clean energy revolution today!

$10 admission

Felipe Lamoglia is a Cuban saxophonist, composer, and arranger, born in Holguin, Cuba. At the age of 18 a scholarship came from the prestigious Superior Institute of Arts (ISA), the most important University of Music in Latin America. His big professional opportunity came at age of 18, being hired to play with NG La Banda, one of the most acclaimed Cuban orchestras ever. Felipe funded his own Orchestra called Oni-Ache, traveling to Sao Paulo, Brazil in 1992 for a musical exchange program with the University of Sao Paulo and went on to live in Brazil for seven years.

It was later, in 2004 when Felipe joined the GRAMMY Award-winner Gonzalo Rubalcaba, recording his GRAMMY Award-nominated album “Paseo”, released by the prestigious Blue Note Records. Around this time he kept on performing for two years with the New Cuban Quartet all over the world. In 2006 he arranged and played on Ignacio Berroa’s new album “Codes”, also released by Blue Note Records and nominated for a GRAMMY as well. This led to performing with Mr. Berroa’s quartet in diverse tours.

Recently Felipe worked as a producer in Arturo Sandoval’s latest album “Rumba Palace”, which won a GRAMMY Award in 2008, being in charge of all the arrangement and composing. By the end of 2007 his first solo album “Dimensions”, recorded in Brazil, was released. This project incorporates his Afro-Cuban roots with strong influences of Jazz and Brazilian music. “I can assure you no other place in the world deserves my solo debut more. I really hope that everyone who in one way or another has followed and supported my music through all these years can enjoy this album and receive my sincere thanks through all my music.”

Special Guest: Ernesto Simpson
Drummer Ernesto Simpson has performed or shared stage with personalities like Carmen McRae, Dizzy Gillespie, Wynton Marsalis, Mike Stern, Michel Legrand, Herbie Hancock, Michael Brecker, George Benson, Salif Keita, Tito Puente, Giovanni Hidalgo, Arturo Sandoval, Paquito D’ Rivera, Ray Barreto, Brian Lynch and Gonzalo Rubalcaba, just to name a few. He also plays for the famous Cameroonian song-writter, singer and bass player, Richard Bona.

Special Guest: Armando Gola

Human Rites Exhibition Opening Reception at Bass Museum 6/24/10

human rites opening reception: Thursday, June 24 – 7-9pm
Gertrude Silverstone Muss Gallery
6pm: private curator tour for upper level members ($125 and higher)
free for members, $10 for non-members

The Bass Museum of Art is pleased to present Human Rites. This exhibition examines ritual through art; and it also examines art through ritual, depending on your point of view. From mundane human activities to sacred practices, from the past through the present, rites and rituals have been pervasive subjects in artistic practice. Human Rites will present works such as 15th century devotional polychrome statues of Mary and 16th century altarpieces alongside works by renowned contemporary artists. This juxtaposition of works circumscribes the timelessness of rituals, expressed historically and anthropologically in religious, as well as other contexts.

Works of art in this exhibition also reflect both the subconscious and premeditated human need for rituals in our every day lives. Votive works by Janine Antoni and Marina Abramovich survey the ceremonial aspects of womanhood; Rirkrit Tiravanija’s Buddha figurines describe the devotional offerings that people manufacture for their gods; collected items by artists like Mark Dion, John Beech, and César Trasobares investigate form, the found object and performative aspects; Allan McCollum ‘s repetitive series’ reflect the construction of objects as substitutes for the real object. Ai Wei Wei uses the bicycle as both symbol and found object in the construction of a monumental totem form. Artists in the exhibition include: Thomas Hirschhorn, Priscilla Monge, El Anatsui, Erwin Wurm, Mark Dion, Christian Boltanski and Cesar Trasobares, and others.

Curated by Silvia Karman Cubiñá, Bass Museum of Art Executive Director and Chief Curator, and Steve Holmes, Adjunct Curator, Bass Museum of Art. This exhibition is the second of three exhibitions in The Endless Renaissance series at the Bass Museum, that began with the exhibition The Endless Renaissance in 2009 and will conclude with a publication in 2012.

The proceeds from the Florida International Wine Challenge will beneft two very worthwhile charities. We are proud to work with and support both the Florida Breast Cancer Foundation and the Melanie Finley Ovarian Cancer Foundation. After the professional tasting conducted behind closed doors, the wines from the 2010 FIWC will open to the trade, media and general public to give them an opportunity to test their palates against the participating panelists. This event will also further support our charitable partners.

Gold & Silver Medal winners will be featured in the 2010 edition of the Miami International Wine Fair, October 16 and 17. These wines will shown poured at the VIP section of the Fair. The timing for this is perfect; it will be just as people are beginning to consider their holiday wine purchases.

FIWC will facilitate distribution services for companies without representation in Florida to be able to take advantage of all the benefts offered. Regional and national wine, lifestyle and entertainment publications will feature full-page advertisements listing all Gold medal winners in the months following the event.

Children’s Cancer Caring Center is a non-profit (100% administration cost-free) located here in South Florida at Baptist Hospital dedicated to covering the cost of treatment of cancer patients from infancy through age 20, or until treatments are completed. America is currently experiencing a cancer epidemic, while rising medical costs are the highest in the world. As a consequence, the demand for the CCCC’s free services is greater than ever. For these children and their families, the CCCC is the light at the end of a dark tunnel – their only hope – Their HOPE begins with you!

Lunch Money
Live @ White Room

Miami’s ‘Underground King’ Garcia is back for the free release of his third album Shattered Dreams, an album that purposely takes Garcia back to his Miami hip-hop roots of beats and rhymes. After the critical acclaim of his 2008 sophomore album Life Unscripted (which was executive produced by N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN and featured guest production by Midi Mafia, Reef, Diaz Brothers, DJ Honda, Omega One, Dani Kartel, Scram Jones, and more), Garcia and longtime producer-friend Mr. Fury went back to the lab and decided to record an album that was strictly ‘in the moment’ – free from thinking about radio, trends, blogs, etc. Consider Shattered Dreams a therapy session that we can all relate to.

Shattered Dreams – Executive Produced by DJ EFN and produced by Nick Fury HD with additional production by Hazardis Soundz (CNN, Triple C), Big Drain (CNN) and featuring Bern Biz (of ¡MAYDAY!) and Garcia’s cousin (which both of them make the group The Dysfunct) Adrianne (Of The Rescues).

Marion Cowings at the Upstairs at Van Dyke 6/11-12/10

Jazz singer Marion Cowings Performs June 11 and 12 at Lincoln Road’s Upstairs at Van Dyke

World-renowned Jazz singer Marion Cowings will perform.
Upstairs at Van Dyke, 846 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach, FL 33139
Friday, June 11, 2010 and Saturday, June 12 from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m.

Marion Cowings, world-renowned Jazz singer, is set to perform June 11 and 12 at Lincoln Road’s The Upstairs at Van Dyke. Cowings, a native New Yorker, is best known for his considerable range and smooth baritone voice. For decades he has been delighting audiences around the world including venues such as Blue Note, Village Vanguard, and Lincoln Center as well as many prestigious venues abroad. New York Times writer Jon Pareles once penned that Cowings sounded like a latter-day Frank Sinatra which may be attributed to his attendance at the now famous LaGuardia High School where he was chosen to perform as a solo vocalist with the New York Philharmonic. Cowings’ newest CD features performances with Hank Jones and Frank Weiss.

Upstairs at Van Dyke is a live music lounge and event space on the second floor of the historic Van Dyke Café overlooking Lincoln Road. Known for its warm and welcoming environment, the venue has made a name for itself by while playing host to the Jazz music tradition. The venue has also recently received a mention in Time Magazine’s Miami: 10 Things to Do in 24 Hours issue. The refurbished space boasts a full-service bar, state of the art sound system, grand piano and is staffed by an acoustic engineer. Live music can be heard at Upstairs at Van Dyke nightly from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.

The Complete Fritz Lang Metropolis at Miami Beach Cinematheque 6/4-6/10

04 FRI, 05 SAT, 06 SUN 8pm:
An MBC Premiere «DIGITAL» Presentation!
In collaboration with Emerging Pictures
Miami Theatrical DIGITAL Premiere!
The Complete METROPOLIS
(Directed by Fritz Lang/1927/Germany/Restored 2009/147mins.)
With Brigitte Helm, Carl Frohlich, Fritz Rasp, Rudolf Klein-Rogge

From 1927 until the early 1980s, Metropolis was screened in a variety of versions and lengths, all of them derived from the general release prints cut by Paramount and UFA. In July 2008, it was announced that an essentially complete copy had been found — a 16mm dupe negative unearthed by the curator of the Buenos Aires Museo del Cine that was considerably longer than any existing print. It included not merely a few additional snippets, but 25 minutes of “lost” footage, about a fifth of the film, that had not been seen since its Berlin debut. The discovery of such a significant amount of material called for yet another restoration, spearheaded again by the Murnau Foundation and coordinated by their Film Restorer Anke Wilkening.
In Metropolis, a towering city of the future, society is divided into two classes: one of planners and management, who live high above the Earth in skyscrapers; and one of workers, who live and toil underground, slaves to the whistle of Metropolis’s ten-hour clock. Freder Fredersen, the only son of Metropolis’ ruler, lives a life of luxury. One day, he follows a beautiful girl down to the grim Lower City. . .
“The cumulative result is a version of “Metropolis” whose tone and focus have been changed. “It’s no longer a science-fiction film,” said Martin Koerber, a German film archivist and historian who supervised the latest restoration and the earlier one in 2001. “The balance of the story has been given back. It’s now a film that encompasses many genres, an epic about conflicts that are ages old.”-New York Times
