THE BEACH CHRONICLES – HALLOWEEN EVE GALA
The Hotel Victor and Select Vodka are thrilled to be hosting the much highly anticipated Beach Chronicles Halloween Eve Gala to be held Friday, October 30th at 8:00 p.m. at the stunning Hotel Victor rooftop. Guests will be spoiled with complimentary Cherry Redding Select Vodka cocktails and hors’douerves from the famed Vix restaurant. The Hotel Victor outdoor veranda will certainly set the pace for what is surely to be the sexiest Halloween event to hit Miami Beach. Look for the fashion forward and cult following of The Beach Chronicles to come dressed in some of the most avant-garde costumes on this Halloween eve.
The Beach Chronicles has created tremendous buzz by incorporating fashion, local socialites, and high profile Miamians into the actual fabric of this animated series. “We have gone to great lengths to include people and landmarks familiar to Miami to ensure the authenticity of the story. The Hotel Victor serves as a centerpiece and makes it the perfect host venue†says co-creator Kevin Sharpley. Emerging designers abound in creating the costumes The Beach Chronicles characters are now famous for; 50’s mod with a modern twist is the overriding theme. “I couldn’t be more excited to see my dresses on The Beach Chronicles’ character, Cherry. It’s sexy, it’s current, and it’s Miami!†exclaims celebrated emerging designer Jason Louis Studnicky. “I think the clothes and the amazing art deco buildings of South Beach are what make The Beach Chronicles so incredibleâ€, gushes actor Jimmy Jean Louis of the hit TV series Heroes and voice of The Beach Chronicles character Jacques Jean Jilles. This event will be a celebration of Miami fashion represented in The Beach Chronicles series as well as an opportunity for attendees to express themselves in their favorite costume of mystery and seduction.
South Beach and the word sexy have become synonymous and the Hotel Victor, The Beach Chronicle and Select Vodka will serve as a testament to that well earned reputation. Expect the evening to be peppered with the “whose who†of Miami Beach society dawned in their Halloween’s best, all in the spirit of our most beloved excuse to get dressed up; Halloween.

What can I say about La Sandwicherie, it is one of the best sandwich places I have ever been to. The ingredients are very fresh and delicious. As I have stated, their sandwiches are amazing. I usually get the salami, ham and turkey with everything and it is enough for two. They have really, really good salads. My favorite salad is the smoked salmon salad; all I have to say is WOW. They also have smoothies, which sound really good and refreshing, I have not had the pleasure have having one yet, but it is on my list. The staff is very friendly and helpful. So if you are looking for a really good sandwich this is the place to go.

The PooL Art Fair is different from all other art fairs in the US. Although there is a tradition in France of independent art fairs, starting from the famous Courbet’s Salon des Independents, PooL is the premiere fair in the US dedicated to artists that do not have representation in galleries.

PooL Art Fair Miami Beach 2009

The show will now take place at the Carlton Hotel on Collins Avenue and 14th Street. Of the many fairs in town at this time, PooL is the only show to present exclusively great-unrepresented artists. 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 may also apply to participate as exhibitors. The fair serves as an invaluable resource for the artistic community and the general public.
Exhibitors will be given a room at the hotel in which to display their work, creating a unique and intimate setting. They will share with the public their most recent works: unique, original, and challenging art.
PooL is produced by Frere Independent.
This not-for-profit art organization provides new avenues of dissemination and widespread visibility to emerging artists who do not currently have gallery representation.

SoBe Arts presents TUNES ‘N TOONS, a quasi qwazy pre-dawn extravaganza of cartoons and live music. Lummus Park Main Stage (8th Street & Ocean Drive – breakfast served at sunrise).
SoBe Arts Chamber Ensemble & SoBe Arts Jazz Ensemble with Montserrat Franco as Betty Boop.
Cartoons at dawn are a ritual American experience. SoBe Arts brings Sleepless Night to a colorful close by celebrating a visual art form that has long embraced both jazz and classical music. A blend of film projections and live performances opens with a late-late cabaret set – one that does not cater to children, veering from comic to provocative and hallucinatory. We welcome the Technicolor dawn skies with hues of the postmodern, orchestral standards twisted and re-imagined into the loony tunes, merry melodies, and irreverent reveries of a golden age of animation.
“It’s the perfect way to start the day – or end the night” http://www.sleeplessnight.org

I have to say this is one of my favorite places, the staff is always wonderful and the food is great. I have been to Lucky Strike a lot and I have never had a bad experience. One of my favorites is the baked potato chips, they come loaded with sour cream, bacon and chives and they are SO good. The pizza is also awesome and they have some really good specialty drinks, they have these martinis with pop rocks on the rim, yummy. The music is always good and if you want to watch a game or any sports they have quite a few big screen TV’s in the bar/restaurant area. If you are in the mood you can also bowl.

Party Rock www.partyrocklife.com
On a mission to capture their party into a way of life, and get everyone else on the LMFAO wagon, they started making original dance songs in their studio apartment to play in the clubs. In true DIY (Do-It-Yourself) fashion, Red and Sky released their “I’m In Miami Bitch†song on Myspace and branded their signature look — wearing loud colors, rockin’ glasses with no lenses and always stayin’ fly with one of their own self-designed shirts. To add to the list of entrepreneurial projects, they keep it real with their approach by running their own label and clothing line, Party Rock by LMFAO. “It’s always better to have a party in your life,” explains Foo. “Fun and laughter, the girls, dancing, celebrating… We want to feel the same way walking down the sidewalk as we do on stage.” Which explains an awful lot about their street attire. The guys, who are devout PETA members, favor pimp jackets, oversized glasses (minus the actual glass), faux fur embellishments and the occasional leopard spandex skin tight pants (girls sizes only). If it’s not vintage, then it’s their own Party Rock brand, which Foo and Sky wear exclusively. And their stylish strut seems to be working. “We get way more women now,” says Sky.
Septimo Boutique www.septimofashion.com
Silvia Fassardi’s Septimo label may stand for lucky number seven, but the recipient of this year’s GenArt Fresh Faces award is creating her own luck, becoming one of Miami’s most sought-after designers and, now, owner of a new South Miami boutique. Located on Bird Road, in the center of a thriving shopping district, Septimo is selling much more than the brand’s seven signature jewelry lines. That doesn’t mean fans will be disappointed.

The New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA) Art Fair announces major changes: moving to Miami Beach, adding a new section. Public admission remains free.
The New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA) is pleased to announce that the 7th edition of the NADA Art Fair will take place in Miami Beach, December 3-6, 2009. The NADA Art Fair will move to a new location in the stately ballrooms and beachside environs of the historic Deauville Beach Resort on Collins Avenue in North Miami Beach. The change marks an exciting transformation of the fair and a new experience for both exhibitors and visitors alike. NADA’s non-profit model has always been a flexible and adaptable one, which is now responding to the needs of its exhibitors and the art world at large by creatively reinventing all aspects of the experience and presentation of new art in an art fair environment.
The NADA Art Fair Miami Beach 2009 will be presented in the Napoleon and Richelieu Ballrooms of the Deauville, a full-service beachside resort, conveniently located on Collins Avenue and the beach just north of the Art Deco District and the Miami Beach Convention Center. Featuring distinctive MiMo architecture, the Deauville boasts a glamorous past, hosting Sinatra and the Rat Pack, as well as the Beatles at their second US performance ever, broadcast live on the Ed Sullivan Show direct from the Napoleon Ballroom. The NADA Art Fair will now transform the Deauville into one of the foremost destinations for the contemporary art, performances, lectures, and events. We are approaching the concept of a resort fair as one that includes the following:
– Increased on-site resources and benefits for exhibitors – Special room rates for all exhibitors, artists and special guests – Special access and unique on-site program for VIPs – Continued free daily admission for all visitors – Convenient parking – Daily program of significant performances and panel discussions – And every convenience of being located on the beach in a comfortable full service resort, including an oversized swimming pool and intimate 200-seat theater.
The NADA Art Fair will for the first time be divided into two sections, with one dedicated exclusively to solo presentations. The total number of booths will also be reduced, reinforcing the high quality presentation that the fair is known for. The NADA Art Fair will remain the leading fair venue to discover work of emerging contemporary artists, and continue to hold dealers to the highest rigors of professionalism. Reconceived as a more intimate experience at this serene and accessible oceanfront location, the NADA Art Fair will bring the visitor closer to the artworks and artists that are at the creative forefront of their generation. In accordance with our mission, NADA will encourage and facilitate the continued growth of community amongst our exhibitors, artists, and members, fostering their intrinsic support networks of curators, collectors, advisors, and critics.
We look forward to welcoming you to the NADA Art Fair Miami Beach 2009. Please check our website shortly for updates and information regarding the application process, dates, times, and events. The deadline for applications will be Thursday, May 21.

Art Basel Miami Beach 2009: The Eighth Edition of America’s Most Prestigious Art Show, Featuring Totally New Exhibition Design and the Launch of the Oceanfront Area
From December 3 through 6, 2009, Miami Beach, Florida, will be home to the 8th edition of Art Basel Miami Beach, the international art show. More than 250 leading galleries from North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa will take part. Chosen by renowned galleries of the Art Basel Miami Beach Selection Committee, the galleries will show works by more than 2,000 artists of the 20th and 21st centuries. Special sectors are devoted to very recent artworks, curated exhibits, performance, and art in public spaces.
This year, the layout of Art Basel Miami Beach will be extensively redesigned, including larger spaces for many galleries, and an innovative floorplan to maximize the visitor experience inside the Miami Beach Convention Center. The Art Positions sector, focused on special projects by young artists and galleries, formerly situated at Collins Park, will now be sited in the center of the Miami Beach Convention Center. Art Galleries, the main section of the show, will again feature the Art Kabinett program, which spotlights curated presentations in the selected gallery’s booth, while Art Nova will present new works by more than 170 artists.
The totally new Oceanfront exhibition environment will be created by Los Angeles artist Pae White commissioned by Creative Time, the legendary New York-based public art organization, and host a daily program including the Art Basel Conversations, Art Perform, Art Video and Art Film. Presented in the public spaces between and around the Oceanfront and the Miami Beach Convention Center, this year’s Art Projects will connect the two main areas of the show.
Occurring annually since its launch in 2002, Art Basel Miami Beach 2009 will run from December 3 through December 6, 2009, with a VIP opening on December 2. Galleries selected from 33 countries will be showcasing paintings, drawings, sculptures, installa- tions, photography, editions, and videos. The show’s list of participants makes Art Basel Miami Beach the most prestigious art show of the Americas, featuring highly established galleries and the most dynamic newcomers. (The full list of exhibitors can be found at www.artbasel.com/sections). Prices range from a few hundred dollars for multiples and works by young artists, to several million for museum-quality masterpieces.
On the eve of the opening, prominent guests from around the world will attend the exclu- sive Vernissage. Many major US museums are organizing trips to Florida, and numerous groups of art collectors from Latin America and Europe have already announced their vis-its. During the show’s five-day run, more than 40,000 art lovers are expected to visit the international art show.
The redesign of Art Basel Miami Beach At the center of the Miami Beach Convention Center visitors will discover an area housing the Art Salon talks program, Art Magazines, Art Institutions and two restaurants. This central area will be surrounded by the Art Positions booths, while Art Nova will extend along a concentrated row at the south end of the halls. This new layout will improve visitor navigation and orientation within the halls, allowing more room for amenities such as restaurants and resting places, further enhancing Art Basel Miami Beach’s ability to be the best platform for its galleries. Furthermore, the Art Collectors Lounge will be significantly redesigned and enlarged, now including a restaurant with seated dining, plus lounges by our main sponsor, UBS, and the associate sponsors Cartier, NetJets and AXA Art.
Art Galleries: sector The Selection Committee – comprised of 12 renowned international gallerists – has picked more than 180 galleries for this year’s show. About half of the exhibitors come from out- side the United States, with strong participation from Europe and Latin America, plus 11 galleries from Asia and two from Africa.
Art Kabinett: sector Art Kabinett gives the 25 galleries participating in the Art Galleries sector an opportunity to present small curated exhibitions, in a separately delineated space within the gallery’s booth. The exhibition concepts for Art Kabinett are diverse, including thematic group exhibitions, art-historical solo shows and showcases for rising stars.
Art Nova: sector In this year’s Art Nova sector, more than 60 emerging and established galleries from 24 countries are presenting new works, by a maximum of three artists. Recent pieces by more than 170 artists will be on display, providing visitors an opportunity for discovering pieces fresh from studios around the globe – and making the sector an ideal place to spot the newest tendencies in artistic production.
Art Positions: sector Formerly located at Collins Park, Art Positions will now be situated in the center of the exhibition halls surrounding the central cube. The sector presents 23 young galleries from 9 different countries, showcasing cutting-edge projects by single artists or conceptual group shows.
The Oceanfront: The Oceanfront area, formerly home to Art Positions, has been created as a platform for Art Basel Miami Beach’s supplemental cultural activities. Situated directly on the beach, in the city where Latin America meets North America, the Oceanfront marks the point where the artworld interfaces with the broader public. We are delighted to have Creative Time, the legendary New York City-based public art organization, as a partner in the launching of this new dimension of Art Basel Miami Beach. Creative Time curator Meredith Johnson commissioned Los Angeles artist Pae White to design the central element of this space, and commission an artist DJ to provide music for this site of public interaction.
Free of any admission charge, the Oceanfront offers visitors many opportunities. In the mornings, they can attend the discussion panels of the Art Basel Conversations series, featuring prominent figures from every artworld domain. And every night during Art Basel Miami Beach, it will feature a special art event. The series of events will be inaugurated by the annual Art Loves Music concert on the beach, followed by the Art Perform program curated by Jens Hoffmann of the Wattis Institute; the Art Video program curated by Creative Time and the Art Film evening curated by This Brunner. Rounding out the experi- ence, the Oceanfront Cafe will offer visitors the possibility to have light meals and refresh- ing drinks.
Art Projects: Art Projects, this year curated for the first time by Patrick Charpenel of Guadalajara, Mexico, features projects by internationally renowned artists, selected from proposals by the galleries of Art Basel Miami Beach and installed in the outdoor public spaces of Miami Beach, within close proximity to Oceanfront area and the Miami Beach Convention Center. These works engage directly with the spectator, interrupting the daily routine of passersby in poetic, and surprising ways.
Art Perform: Based at the Oceanfront, Art Perform now features an intensified program of longer per- formances by rising international artists. As in former years, this program will be conceived by curator Jens Hoffmann, director of the CCA Wattis Institute, San Francisco. It will take place on Thursday and Saturday at 9 pm during the show.
Art Video: Art Video is a video program curated by Creative Time including discussions with artists and curators active in the field. The program will take place on Thursday and Saturday from 7 – 8.30 pm during the show.
Art Film: Art Film is an evening devoted to a single film with strong artworld connections, curated by Zurich film connaisseur This Brunner, followed by a panel with a selection of participants. Art Film takes place on Friday at 8.30 pm.
Art Basel Conversations: Now located at the Oceanfront, Art Basel Conversations offers audiences access to first-hand information on important aspects of the international artworld. This year’s topics include “Museum Directors: Change in Generationâ€, “Art Collections in Latin America†and “The Future of the Museum: The Portable Museumâ€. Distinguished artists, art collectors, museum directors, curators, critics, gallerists, publishers, and others active in the cultural sphere take part. There is also time allotted after each Art Basel Conversation for the audience to engage with the panel in a more informal fashion.
Art Salon: Situated in the central area of the Miami Beach Convention Center, Art Salon is a platform for discussion by artworld figures presenting their projects, with an emphasis on the most current themes in contemporary art. Informal in format but international in scope, it also features book launches, artist talks, roundtable discussions, and lectures.
Museums and Private Collections: Once again, Miami’s leading private collections – among them the Margulies Collection, the Rubell Family Collection, CIFO the private collection of Ella Cisneros, the de la Cruz Collection, the Mora Collection, the Scholl Collection, and the Robins Collection amongst others – will be opening their homes and warehouses to guests of the international art show. The museums of South Florida, too, will be staging important exhibitions to coincide with Art Basel Miami Beach, including exhibitions presenting Guillermo Kuitca at the Miami Art Museum, “Art from the Jumex Collection†at the Bass Museum, William Kentridge at the Norton Museum, George Segal at the Margulies Collection, and Raymond Pettibon and Sylvie Fleury at World Class Boxing.
Sponsors and Partners Art Basel Miami Beach enjoys the support of many partners, with UBS holding the premier position as our Main Sponsor. At the Associate Sponsor level, Cartier, NetJets and AXA Art Insurance continue their significant partnership with Art Basel Miami Beach.
Design Miami: This year marks the fifth edition of Design Miami, from December 1 to 5, with the world’s most prominent design galleries presenting contemporary and historic work. Design Miami’s award-winning Temporary Structure returns with an innovative, new façade designed by architects Aranda\Lasch. Located in the vibrant Miami Design District, the structure will transform a coconut palm lot into a cutting-edge exhibition space for limited- edition design www.designmiami.com.

ST. JOHN’S ON THE LAKE CHURCH TO HOST SEVENTH ANNUAL “PET BLESSING” SERVICE FOR THE COMMUNITY
Fido, Fluffy and Ferris the Ferret of all Denominations are Welcome
Sunday, October 4
Realizing that pets are an integral part of many families, St. John’s on the Lake United Methodist Church is once again hosting a favorite community tradition when Pastor Melissa Pisco conducts the seventh annual “pet blessing” service on Sunday, October 4, at 11 a.m. in the St. John’s sanctuary. Well-behaved pets and their human companions of all faiths and denominations are welcome at this special service. Following the service, St. John’s congregation and their pet guests will host a special “yappy hour” on the church’s outdoor patio overlooking Surprise Lake.
The St. John’s pet blessing service celebrates the Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment. This Feast Day pays homage to the founder of the Franciscan Order who was renowned as a lover of all creation.
“The annual pet blessing is one of our favorite and most heartwarming community events,†said Pastor Pisco. “Our furry, finned and feathered family members are such a special part of our lives. This service gives us a chance to reinforce the spiritual message that ‘all creatures, great and small’ are deserving of our love and compassion. It’s also a sacred time to honor our companions for the peace and love they lend to our anxious world.â€

TWO CONCERTS ONE NIGHT! featuring Russian Red and Alex*Cuba
Thu. Oct. 15 8PM at Colony Theater
Two concerts at the beautiful Miami Beach’s Art Deco Colony Theater with some of the best of emerging Contemporary World Music artists! The night begins with Russian Red, the stage name for Lourdes Hernández, a singer-songwriter based in Madrid, Spain. Her beautifully crafted, minimal songs beam delicate folk harmonies and lustrous vocals, originally formed in 2007, by Lourdes and Brian Hunt. The moniker for Lourdes comes from a lipstick color she frequently uses. The evenings closes with Singer-songwriter Alex*Cuba who’s trademark sugarcane-sweet melodies, pop-soul hooks and rock chords subtly subvert commonly held notions of what Cuban music is. Alex is the vanguard, crafting a cross-cultural sound. Not tied to tradition, this Cuban-Canadian prefers his vintage Gibson over el sencerro (cowbell) anytime.

Smithsonian Magazine’s 5th Annual Museum Day
Saturday, September 26, 2009
On Saturday September 26, 2009, The Bass Museum of Art will participate in the fifth annual Museum Day, presented by Smithsonian magazine. A celebration of culture, learning and the dissemination of knowledge, Smithsonian’s Museum Day reflects the spirit of the magazine, and emulates the free-admission policy of the Smithsonian Institution’s Washington, DC-based properties. Doors will be open free of charge to Smithsonian magazine readers and Smithsonian.com visitors at museums and cultural institutions nationwide.
Last year, upwards of 200,000 people attended Museum Day, with all 50 states plus Puerto Rico represented by over 900 participating museums, including 84 Smithsonian affiliate museums. This year, the magazine expects to attract over 1,000 museums.
“An individual museum is not alone in its quest to integrate knowledge into people’s lives. Each museum is a small part of a universe of museums whose dialogues grow, and together expand an understanding and appreciation of culture, art, places, customs and/or animals. The Bass Museum of Art is proud to be a part of the fifth annual Museum Day and in Miami Beach, promote the understanding of art, historically and in the present.” states Silvia Karman Cubina, Executive Director of the Bass Museum.
On view in September at the Bass Museum of Art will be The Endless Renaissance, Tiny Stories [01], and Selections from the Collection.

A Very Wolfsonian Weekend Celebrates South Florida’s Car Culture
In keeping with the tradition of past Wolfsonian fundraisers, this year’s Very Wolfsonian Weekend, “An Affair On, In, and With the Motor Car,” on November 13-15, is anything but your typical fundraiser. The series of innovative events scheduled over the course of this three-day celebration of both car culture and museum founder Micky Wolfson’s seventieth birthday promise to prove illuminating and unusual, with a large dose of fun thrown into the mix.
The events, which take place in a variety of venues, are designed to foster intriguing connections with the museum’s interest in travel and transportation, providing new insights into ways in which the collection’s themes impact people’s daily lives.
“Our fundraising weekend this year ties into our Styled for the Road exhibition and offers a unique opportunity to celebrate and look at some very special elements of car culture in South Florida,” says Cathy Leff, director of The Wolfsonian. “This year’s events will be thought-provoking and expose participants to hidden gems in our community while providing a framework for people to examine the automobile’s role in American culture, past and present. And, to top it off, we’re celebrating our founder’s seventieth birthday!”
The weekend features four events:
• a lavish, behind-the-scenes reception at The Creative Workshop, a nationally acclaimed car restoration and customization firm where you’ll see exotic cars in all phases of reconstruction, including the workshop’s most famous car, the Sport Speciale
• a talk by renowned car designer Chris Bangle, the most influential living car designer and former chief of design at BMW, presented by The Wolfsonian and Braman Motors
• a birthday dinner for Micky Wolfson with a cocktail reception at the Bacardi Building Plaza sponsored by Bacardi, USA, followed by dinner in the Braman Motors Showroom, co-sponsored by Braman Motors
• a visit to two extraordinary automobile collections in South Florida, the Fort Lauderdale Antique Car Museum and The Dauer Museum of Classic Cars—this event is free for members, so join now!
The funds raised support the museum’s exhibitions, education programs, publications, acquisitions, and other initiatives. For ticket information or membership information contact ian@thewolf.fiu.edu or 305.535.2631.

On Monday, September 21, MoveOn members in the Miami area have a special opportunity to watch the one-night-only premiere of an important new film called The Age of Stupid.
The film is a powerful “docudrama” set in the year 2055, after global warming has done massive damage to humanity. Oscar-nominated actor Pete Postlethwaite stars as a historian who “looks back” on real footage from 2008 to try to answer the question, “why didn’t we stop climate change while we had the chance?”
In addition to the movie, the theater will simulcast a Hollywood-style premiere event from New York City.
September 21, 2009
7:30 p.m.
South Beach Stadium 18
1120 Lincoln Rd
Miami Beach, FL, 33139
You can purchase advance tickets by clicking here:

You’ll get so much more than just a great movie. The premiere event, simulcast live from a solar-powered tent in New York City to over 700 theaters in the U.S. and 50 other countries, will feature such celebrities as Gillian Anderson, Heather Graham, and Moby.
Also, MTV’s Gideon Yago will interview Nobel Peace Prize recipient Kofi Annan, environmental scientist James Hansen, and The Age of Stupid director Franny Armstrong. Ending the night will be a special, acoustic performance by Radiohead’s Thom Yorke.
The Age of Stupid was number one at the box office in the U.K. this spring, and this one-night event is poised to break the Guinness World Record for biggest simultaneous film screening. You can watch the trailer here: http://www.moveon.org/r?r=51921&id=17229-9306135-pDOul7x&t=1
Check out what critics are saying about this film:
“A captivating and constantly surprising film.”—George Monbiot, The Guardian1
“Think An Inconvenient Truth but with a personality.”—Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times2
“Political incompetence and inaction can usher in disaster… Rome is burning, and Franny Armstrong is fiddling the right tune.”—Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian3
The Age of Stupid looks us right in the eye and asks what kind of future we want for our kids. Be one of the first to see this important film and help spread the word so that as many Americans as possible hear its message. We hope to see you at the theater.

O’ Horten
(Written and directed by Bent Hamer/Norway/2008/ 90 mins.)
With Baard Owe, Espen Skjønberg, Githa Nørby, Bjørn Floberg
The moment the train leaves the station without engineer Odd Horten (Bard Owe) aboard, he realizes that the path ahead is a journey without printed timetables and well-known stations. Horten has been forced to retire after 40 years of traveling a very stable rail. His orderly, solitary existence is about to give way to a future of unlikely adventures and puzzling dilemmas. Proof positive that there is humor to be found in aging. O’HORTEN is Bent Hamer’s wonderfully skewed view of the human condition and gives us that somewhat absurdist vision with great warmth, a little melancholy and universal appeal.
In Norwegian with English subtitles.
WINNER: Flanders Int. Film Festival Best Director
“WARM, WHIMSICAL, WITH ITS OWN WAY OF LOOKING AT THE WORLD, “O’Horten” is a film made with impeccable delicacy and tact in all departments!â€
-Los Angeles Times
“METICULOUSLY CONSTRUCTED and Keatonesque!â€-New York Times

SEPHARDIC MUSIC – Romantic Songs of Spanish Jews
Montserrat Franco, Soprano
Claude Kadoch, Guitar & Darhukka
Free & Open to the Public
For centuries, the legacy and traditions of Sepharad (Spain in Hebrew) was transmitted through generations of Sephardic Jews on their Diaspora after they were ousted of Spain in 1492 and settled in several parts of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. They left Spain but never their language “Djudeo-Espanyol†also called “Ladino†(a language which defer from the Spanish or Castillan spoken by Christians at that time and which includes Hebrew elements and vocabulary from the local languages) neither the culture which includes an amazing oral tradition : tales, poems and songs or “Romanceros†just as the “Trovadours†will perform in the Middle Age.
The vast collection of Romances preserved and transmitted for generations will come back to life on September 27th when Singer “Montserrat Franco†will present in an unique venue accompanied by the Israeli Moroccan Artist Claude Kadoch. These songs express not only these historical changes but also the entire life-cycle of that people, with their moments of joy, sorrow and love, its festivities and celebrations. This rich and varied culture is the basis of the Ladino repertoire, a musical treasure that never ceased to grow in the new places where the Sephardic Jews settled.
About the Artist: Montserrat Franco, a graduated Vocal Professor, ethnomusicologist and grantee of several scholarships by the European Parliament in Madrid, Spain and the State of Israel researched about the Sephardic Romances and Traditions from 1999 to 2002.
She was commissioned by the State of Israel to perform around the world as a truly sephardic artist during International Literature Fairs and Symposiums of the Spanish Language always sponsored by the AECI (Spanish Agency of International Cooperation)

Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Performing Arts Showcase Sleepless Night at Miami Beach’s Colony Theatre, November 7, 2009
Gender-bending, great music, lots of laughs and some powerful takes on history and sexual identity are all part of the upcoming A Taste of Out in the Tropics Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) performing arts showcase. It begins at 10:00 pm and continues on past midnight on Saturday, November 7, 2009 at the Colony Theatre, 1040 Lincoln Road. A Taste of Out in the Tropics is part of the annual Sleepless Night event, a vibrant free indoor and outdoor cultural festival spread out over multiple locations throughout Miami Beach on the 13-hour night that marks the end of Daylight Savings Time. A Taste of Out in the Tropics is a presentation of Robert Rosenberg/Tropical Wave Productions, in association with FUNDarte and MiamiARTzine.com, with the support of the City of Miami Beach and other funders.
A Taste of Out in the Tropics’ featured performer is the women-led pop-rock group BETTY, whose hilarious and always fresh musical performances and theater work has made them popular worldwide. They are well known for their music for the groundbreaking Showtime lesbian series The L Word, including the racy theme song, as well as their Off-Broadway show BETTY Rules. Lily Tomlin has said they are “so joyously captivating, you’ll ovulate†and Gloria Steinem has commented that they “sing with heart, humor….and attitude.†BETTY will perform a full concert to close the evening.
A great line-up of local GLBT artists will open A Taste of Out in the Tropics with brief sets from 10:00 to 11:30 pm. The M.C. for the night will be Adora, South Florida’s infamous gender illusionist known for his spot-on comedy and lip-synching in both English and Spanish. Juan Carlos Zaldivar will appear in his Martà and I, a mixed-media piece that blends video and live performance. Drag It Out will present their female-to-male “drag king†show that is sure to entertain audience members of all persuasions. And finally, the evening will be rounded out with a performance from an ensemble of the always-popular Miami Gay Men’s Chorus.
A Taste of Out in the Tropics is a preview of what will be South Florida’s first full-fledged gay contemporary performing arts festival, Out in the Tropics, coming to Miami in July 2010. The festival will present award-winning, cutting-edge GLBT performing artists from around the country who address broad gender and social issues, for an extended weekend of shows and other events. “We are so excited to launch this new Out in the Tropics project by participating in Sleepless Night this year, “ says Out in the Tropics Artistic Director Robert Rosenberg. “Our intent is to create a gay and lesbian signature event that can have both a local and national profile while exposing South Florida audiences to new and exciting work that rarely if ever gets presented in the region.â€
Admission to A Taste of Out in the Tropics is free, with no reservations required, as is the case for all Sleepless Night events. For more information visit www.fundarte.us and www.sleeplessnight.org or contact robert@tropicalwavemiami.com.

Beyond Biba
A Portrait of Barbara Hulanicki
(Directed by Louis Price/UK/2009/55min)
Produced by Thomas Walters & James Collie
Barbara Hulanicki will always be remembered for BIBA, the shop that changed the face of UK fashion in the 1960s and 70s. BIBA would leave an indelible mark on the minds and wardrobes of the customers who ventured through its doors. Following its closure in 1975, many have attempted to reproduce the magic. All have missed the key ingredient: the involvement of its creator, Barbara Hulanicki. The legendary career of Barbara entered a new phase in 1987, when she completely reinventing herself as an interior designer in Miami. Hulanicki was at the forefront of the regeneration of Miami Beach, collaborating with Island Records founder Chris Blackwell. Barbara Hulanicki is now respected across the world as a major figure in design.
Barbara Hulanicki and producer James Collie will be present for introduction and Q&A after the film on Friday, with a reception to follow. Come celebrate with us!

About: Educate Tomorrow, Corp. is an international, nonprofit, certified 501(c)(3) organization. All over the world, poverty denies children, as well as adults, the promises of a better tomorrow. Forgotten by society and social welfare programs, children born into poverty are trapped in a cruel and often violent cycle that frequently continues for generations. Lacking the inspiration, confidence, knowledge, and means to change, entire families are lost to the cycle of hopelessness.
Educate Tomorrow believes that the best way to end the cycle of poverty is through education. Our mission is to make education an attainable goal for the most disadvantaged in our world, so that all may be afforded the possibilities that can be achieved through learning. We strive to reach out to these individuals and provide them inspiration, guidance, and support and lead them on the path of life-long learning.
Educate Tomorrow’s primary mission in the US is to provide one-on-one educational mentors to foster care children that are turning 18 and “aging out” of the system. Since its founding in 2003, Educate Tomorrow has successfully implemented its mentoring programs, education programs and life skills camps across the nation. Additionally, it has reached internationally by continuing to support the work of it’s founders who established one of the first local language primary schools, adult literacy programs and boarding schools in the remote and impoverished village of Kabey Fo in Niger, West Africa.

My studio is in the first floor of the 924 Art Center Building on Lincoln Road (across from Books and Books) number 110. Please find the invitation attached below.

The concept is that each presenter is allowed 20 images in a power point presentation that is shown for 20 second each– giving 6 minutes and 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise, interest level up and gives the opportunity for more people to express their ideas.

Reception – Simon Starling: Inverted Retrograde Theme, USA (House for a Songbird)
Friday, August 28 – 7-9PM
Conceptual artist Simon Starling (b. 1967 Epsom, England) explores the relationships between craft, material, technique, social history, association and memory. Inverted Retrograde Theme, USA (House for a Songbird) is comprised of two scale models of prefabricated single-family houses that are pinned to the ceiling by tree branches. They are each a one fifth- scale recreation of existing homes located outside San Juan, Puerto Rico. Built in the 1960s, these houses were part of a postwar philanthropic effort in developing countries, financed by the New York-based Rockefeller Foundation.
Overlapping traditions, geographies and historical narratives, Starling combines the modernist theories of architect Simon Schmiderer (born Saalfedlden [Salzburg Province, Austria], 1911); died Highland Beach, FL April 2001), and Austrian composer and theorist Arnold Schonberg (born Vienna, 1874; died Los Angeles, 1951) who, in both of their respective fields, created rigid systems based on modular logic which were intended to enhance creativity. The architect was influenced by the composer, and was known to incorporate his musical theories in his work.
Simon Schmiderer, a faithful modernist, was best known for his “serial” housing, his motto being “one house in one hour.” He was the architect for the extensive residential building project in Puerto Rico during the 1960s, basing his designs on pre-formed, inexpensive, concrete modules with ample open windows, omitting glass to “integrate” the interior and exterior. The wire mesh around the houses represents the security measures the actual inhabitants of the project in Puerto Rico took to maintain their safety in the high-crime area, as the original architectural plan dismissed the inhabitants’ practical needs, and was comprised of all open spaces with no security. The sound of singing birds coming from inside the seemingly caged homes completes the startling visual metaphor.
The architect adapted the composer’s serialist techniques in his work, and Starling illustrates this idea into the installation by mirroring the structures. The title for the installation is derived from Schonberg’s compositional system which can be played as “original,” “inverted,” “retrograde” or “inverted retrograde.” Aspects of inversion and translocation (characteristic for twelve-tone music) were added to offer a new perspective of the modernist idea. Starling takes Schoenberg’s ideas further by flipping the houses upside down and pinning them to the ceiling, each balanced by one thin mahogany branch. The exhibition is on view through September 13, 2009.
Please join us on Friday August 28, from 7-9PM for a special reception. Beverages compliments of Dziac, Grolsch, and Cafe Bustelo. Hot Nights Cool Jazz featuring the Dave Fernandez Quartet from 7-9PM.
Free for Bass Museum members; $10 non- members.

The Flying Carpet
Pip & Duane Brant
Opening night on Saturday, September 5 from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. coincides with the Lincoln Road art walk
Pip Brant’s carpet is comprised of a found oriental rug, embroidery, silkscreen, brass ornaments, wood, car parts, electric motor, laser-light and rheostat controllers. The rug first entered Pip’s life in the early 1980s in Wyoming. The many adventures of Pip’s carpet were just taking shape when she had an epiphany: she would create an impotent “flying carpet†that only shakes and lights-up when foot pedals are engaged.
Duane’s installation pieces are dubbed “Sew Organs’ or interactive acoustical sound machines. In addition to the flying carpet, ArtCetner’s audience will be invited to play with these instruments that combine vintange sewing machines with shellacked, wooden acoustic forms that are electronically connecte to organs, cellos or old radios.
The show will run from September 4th – Ocotober 11th, 2009 at the ArtCenter/ South Florida’s Lincoln Road Gallery.

SPECIAL EVENT
Friday, August 28, 7pm
TALK AND BOOK SIGNING BY SENATOR BOB GRAHAM—Senator Bob Graham will discuss his new book, America: The Owner’s Manual, an insider’s guide to making the political system work for you. Designed with students in mind, this how-to book can be used by all to make politics a hands on activity, rather than the spectator sport it usually is.

A NEW environmental film series in collaboration with: ECOMB The Environmental Coalition of Miami & the Beaches
FOOD, Inc.
(A documentary film by Robert Kenner/USA/2009/94 min.)
In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation’s food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government’s regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA. Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment. We have bigger-breasted chickens, the perfect pork chop, herbicide-resistant soybean seeds, even tomatoes that won’t go bad, but we also have new strains of E. coli—the harmful bacteria that causes illness for an estimated 73,000 Americans annually. We are riddled with widespread obesity, particularly among children, and an epidemic level of diabetes among adults.
The film on Friday will be followed by a Q&A with an organic farmer Gabriele Marewski from Paradise Farms Organic.
The film on Saturday will be followed by a Q&A with Chef Jeff Mcinnis from De Lido Beach Club at the Ritz Carlton.

along with CHICCO SECCI
Click here to purchase tickets
Roger Sanchez has always operated several miles ahead of his dance music colleagues. Sanchez’s front-running position in the club community comes from an innate talent and taste for creative exploration.
From the beginning of his career, he has consistently strived to redefine the boundaries of underground house music, beginning in 1990 under the moniker Underground Solution with the single “Luv Dancin.” With that now classic single, Sanchez proved that the texture of a thick syncopated baseline, and a simple but contagious melody, could rise above the confines of a small venue into mainstream consciousness and on to crossover radio airwaves. The track was eventually re-recorded with the haughty and seductive delivery of newcomer Jasmine, further expanding its already ardent international audience and providing a glimpse into Sanchez’s creative grasp.
“I’ll never forget hearing, that record played in a club for the first time,” says Sanchez. “Watching people react to it was a revelation. I knew this record was different from anything l had worked on and it was just the beginning.” From that point he rose to the top of the major label remix league, adding his magic touch to a broad selection of today’s greatest artists. One of those would again change the course of career travel for Sanchez; “‘Take Me Back To Love Again’ by Kathy Sledge was one of the first records that I had to really show people that I could handle something with real depth,” he says of the song that he transformed from a sultry R & B ditty into a full throttle, gospel-spiced mover. “It wasn’t just a case of re-cutting the keyboards and beat. l went back into the studio with Kathy, and she re-sang the song. It was pure chemistry. We connected and really respected one another and that brought out the best we had to offer.” A worldwide No. 1 smash, “Take Me Back To Love Again” led to post-production of Sledge’s next single “Heart.”
Along the way, Sanchez further developed his unique and highly musical image within clubland with a foray into the world of independent label ownership. In 1992, he formed One Records, an outlet that earned a sole reputation for it’s cutting edge releases by Sanchez and a host of other underground luminaries. Last year came Narcotic Records. Among it’s early releases was “Another Star” which proved to be a massive vocal club anthem on which he teamed up with Kathy Sledge once again. Narcotic has emerged as a label that can deliver eclectic club tracks from the likes of Ashley Beedle, Deep Dish and DJ Disciple.
The hardcore of Sanchez’s tenure in dance music is an ongoing passion for stepping behind the turntables. “To me, spinning records can be just as creative as producing and remixing,” he says. “A great DJ can take a record and give it an entirely new sound or vibe, by the way they deal with the beats or chord progressions.” Sanchez still spins regularly, serving the longtime disciples of his hallowed ‘Ego Trip’ travelling parties, which were the talk of New York and Europe.
“DJ-ing is part of what draws me into making music,” says the New York native, who divided his early 20’s between seasoning his musical aptitude and studying architecture at the Pratt Institute. “For a while I tried to do both, but what can I say, music was what touched me more deeply. I had to give it a shot.”
Needless to say, Sanchez made the right decision. In addtion to a full slate of production, writing and remix chores, 1997 will see the birth of Narcosis Records which will be an outlet for more experimental music including Drum ‘n Bass and Hip Hop. Both Narcotic and Narcosis will continue the Sanchez philosophy of nurturing new talent and providing inspirational dance music.

Writer and director Dan Castle crafts an impressive feature debut-combining the ravishing elements of surfing movies with a compelling family drama. The cast is an incredible ensemble of up-and-comers including Xavier Samuel of the upcoming Twilight saga, Eclipse that make both the visceral surfing sequences and tender emotional scenes seem effortless. While the brothers’ complicated relationship forms the crux of the film, the waves and the beaches of Newcastle can also rightly claim a starring role.

Hot New Vintage Soul Series Opens At The Van Dyke Cafe August 16 and At The News Lounge August 23rd Puts Artists Back to Work
The upstairs lounge in The Van Dyke Café is very unassuming. In fact, if it wasn’t for the video stream downstairs, you might not even know about the mystical experiences happening right above the common area. But for those “in the knowâ€, it’s the ultimate in true raw traditional musical talent where artists unleash and audiences get a glimpse of an exclusive rare treat of talent available for the taking.
Upstairs at The Van Dyke Café on South Beach, a new series called “Vintage Soulâ€, co-produced by harmonica player, Randy Singer, keeps the music scene rocking and rolling with an exceptional grouping of local artists banning together to create and play music to a captive and appreciative audience. The interactive series features live music ranging from R&B and neo soul to jazz, blues, reggae, funk and gospel, spanning four generations of music including classics from Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Bob Marley, Chaka Khan, Sade, Alicia Keys, among many others. Due to the initial success and unprecedented response of the special performance held earlier this month, The Van Dyke Café located at 846 Lincoln Road in Miami Beach, rated the “Best Jazz Club†by Miami New Times, will host the series on a regular basis once a month until December, beginning Sunday, August 16, 9pm-1am. Sister café The News Lounge located on 5580 NE 4th Court in The Courtyard at 55th Street Station in Miami will also host the series starting August 23. As a new age outdoor garden lounge this setting acts as the perfect backdrop to the new series.
Co-producer of Vintage Soul, Natasha Haynes of PhoenixStar Entertainment comments on the purpose of the series and the state of the music industry today. She says, “The Vintage Soul series was created not only to pay tribute to classic soul music of yesterday and today, but to also give undiscovered artists and talented vocalists a moment in the spotlight. Major record labels have cut back on promoting new artists and traditional ways of promotion are simply not available anymore. Those with true talent have to self-promote and use whatever tools they have available to reach the audience that values their quality. So whether they are singing a classic soul cover song or one of their original songs, Vintage Soul, gives artists a platform of exposure so that they can market themselves and showcase their talent.”
Haynes enjoys working with singer, songwriter, and musician Randy Singer who, she says, helps find work for musicians. “Randy makes sure artists are seen and appreciated. He provides bookings, enthusiasm, and the tools they need to continue their work in an atmosphere that induces creativity and cohesiveness.†Singer is based in Miami and books talent all over the tri county area in addition to booking all the nightly entertainment at The Van Dyke Café and The News Lounge through his company Randy Singer Music. He himself has played all over the world with such greats as Franco da Vita, Toots Thielemans, Caetano Veloso, Juan Luis Guerra, Timbaland and Julio Iglesias in such places as Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Paris, Czech Republic, Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Germany, Amsterdam, Mexico, New York, and Nashville.
With music by The Derek Mac Band backing some of South Florida’s local artists, this series is already a hit and the best kept secret. With limited space and no cover, it’s best to get there early. For more information or if you’re interested in playing for the series, email phoenixstarmusic@aol.com with your photos, web-links, mp3 files and whatever else you think earns you some stage time or visit http://www.thevandykecafe.com/vintagesoul.

The Environmental Coalition of Miami and the Beaches (ECOMB) started an amazing project called “Raise the Bar.” ECOMB is trying to get all the bars in Miami Beach to recycle. A student from UM got a grant from Hands on Miami, and started with four pilot bars already.
ECOMB is fundraising at every one of those bars, and this month is Waxy O’Connor’s. The event is on July 27th, from 8pm to 2am. Ritchie & Rivenbark, The Rockadictos and The Dizzy Bird are playing. Proceeds of the bar will benefit Raise the Bar and ECOMB, and help raise awareness to this issue.
A University of Miami medicine student launched a program that is bound to launch Miami way ahead in the global green movement.
“Miami has been very behind in the green revolution, but now it’s time to step up to the plate,†said Fernanda Medici, one of the program assistants of ECOMB who is also responsible for pushing the project forward.
Raise the Bar (Miami Beach) is an exciting pilot program designed to promote recycling at local bars across Miami Beach. The program started on Earth Day, April 22nd, 2009, and it provided free recycling services to four select bars across the city through June 2009. In a joint collaboration between the Environmental Coalition of Miami Beach (ECOMB) and World Waste Services, Inc., each bar received complimentary recycling bins and pick-up for the duration of the program. A projected 15,000 bottles and cans have already been recycled in the four bars alone.
This is an unprecedented initiative generously funded by Hands On Miami’s Starbucks
Youth Philanthropy Committee, but this is only the beginning. Founded by committed volunteer / project coordinator, Neha Patel, and ECOMB Director, Luiz Rodrigues, it is intended that the program will eventually grow to incorporate all bars across Miami Beach. Currently, only a small percentage of bars in Miami Beach recycle, despite that recycling is cost-effective, saves money and is mandated by law. As a bold stride towards greenifying Miami Beach, the following bars have graciously committed to the program: Abraxas Lounge, Purdy Lounge, The Catalina, and Waxy O’Connor’s Irish Pub.
The ECOMB volunteers are planning on having a celebratory party at each of the four bars. The intention is to bring awareness to the issue and also raise funds for the organization.

ABOUT THE FILM
Official Selection of the Sundance Film Festival 2009 and Cannes Film Festival 2009
It’s been a decade since Ben and Andrew were the bad boys of their college campus. Ben has settled down and found a job, wife, and home. Andrew took the alternate route as a vagabond artist, skipping the globe from Chiapas to Cambodia. When Andrew shows up unannounced on Ben’s doorstep, they easily fall back into their old dynamic of macho one-upmanship. Late into the night at a wild party, the two find themselves locked in a mutual dare: to enter an amateur porn contest together. But what kind of boundary-breaking, envelope pushing porn can two straight dudes make? After the booze and “big talk” run out, only one idea remains?they will have sex together?on camera. It’s not porn; it’s art. But how exactly will it work? And more importantly, who will tell Anna (Delmore), Ben’s wife?
Writer/director Lynn Shelton, director of My Effortless Brilliance and recipient of the “Someone to Watch Award” at the 2009 Independent Spirit Awards, expertly mines the biggest ironies of the male ego to hilarious effect. HUMPDAY is a buddy movie gone wild.
“The movie’s unblinking observation of a friendship put to the test is amused, queasy making, kindhearted and unfailingly truthful.” -The New York Times

Hear the music of Handel’s youth, from chapel, chamber, and stage, as these influences blend into the unmistakable sound of the mature master. Through the compositions of Corelli, Keiser, Schelle, J.P. Krieger, Zachow, Steffani, Handel himself, and others, experience the sonic tapestry of the world in which this young composer became the man we now celebrate. Tableau Baroque is an American chamber music ensemble dedicated to bringing the music of the Baroque to life through emotionally connected, historically informed, illuminating performances. Core members Ian Howell, countertenor, and Henry Lebedinsky, early keyboards, are joined for this concert by Michael Albert, baroque violin/countertenor, and Brian Howard, baroque cello.
