OPENING RECEPTION FOR
Art Déco: Un Tour de France
Photographs by Alice Goldhagen

The style that became known as Art Deco first came to the attention of the world in the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes in Paris in 1925. While the Art Deco style is perhaps best known in its architectural expression, artists and designers also incorporated elements of the style into their designs for such diverse items as jewelry, textiles, furniture, graphic arts, fashion, and transportation.

Miami-based visual artist and photographer Alice Goldhagen brings a 21st century perspective to Art Deco architecture and ornamentation throughout France. Her photographs evoke the elegance and sophistication of the 1920s and 30s.

The exhibit is open daily (except Mondays) from 10:00 am until 5:00 pm, until 03 January 2009. Free admission.

Art Déco: Un Tour de France is made possible with the generous support of Rex Art, Dreyfus Ashby & Co. and the Alliance Francaise of Miami.

Location: Art Deco Education Center at Historic City Hall, 1130 Washington Av, Miami Beach

FULL HOUSE | POOL ART FAIR | MIAMI BEACH 2008
Frere Independent is proud to present its annual independent art fair, PooL. This is the fourth edition of the PooL Art Fair in Miami, and it is slated for December 5, 6 & 7 2008 at the Cavalier Hotel, during the art week in Miami. Of the many fairs that are happening at this time, PooL is the only one that is presenting the work of independent 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. The show will be comprised of young contemporary art dealers, artist agents, emerging galleries, artists’ collectives, and non-profit organizations. Hence, the fair will serve as an invaluable resource for the artistic community and the general public. Exhibitors will be given rooms 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, a not-for-profit art organization, that provides new avenues of dissemination and widespread visibility to emerging and independent artists who do not currently have gallery representation.

Originally envisioned as an event that would promote camaraderie in the arts by providing a meeting ground and market place for artists, art dealers, curators, and the public, the goal of the PooL Art Fair is to engage the public by making art accessible, and to encourage them to support artists. It’s imperative that artists be able to eat, read, and pay their rent just like anyone else.

PooL Miami 08 | Hours
Thursday December 4 Check-in time 3pm
Friday December 5 4pm- 10pm
Saturday December 6 4pm- 10pm
Sunday December 7 4pm- 10p

Participation in PooL Art Fair
The deadline for sending in the application has been extended. However, space is limited and rooms will be assigned as we receive and accept applicants. The show could fill up before the deadline arrives, so please do not wait for the last minute to apply!

To Apply:
Please submit an initial application to receive further information for submitting samples of your artwork. You can access the application at: http://www.divafair.com/divastore/home.php?cat=48 Under Pool Art Fair click on applications and follow the necessary instructions.
All applicants will be reviewed by the PooL Video Miami Beach 2008 Selection Committee, a peer group of international curators. Only the exhibitors who are accepted by the Selection Committee may exhibit at the fair.

Important notification from the fair management
Although art fairs opened to non-represented artists were a tradition in France at the time of Courbet’s famous Salon des Independents, they were non-existent in the U.S. until the creation of the PooL art fair. It is important that all artists understand that PooL is an exchange platform created for the artist. It is with the communication effort of each artist that the fair will be successful. In other words, each artist is responsible for his or her own success. Please invite every one you know, every one you meet and most importantly, every one you want to know. Space is limited, rooms will be assigned as we receive and accept applicants. The show could fill up before the deadline arrives, so please do not wait for the last minute to apply!

Online Version

Opening Reception, Saturday, October 25th, 2008
800 Lincoln Road Gallery, 7 – 10 PM
Free and open to the public.

The story ‘Just then Mischief made its way outside…’ is a fictional tale of a small humanoid creature aptly named Mischief and personified by artist Venessa Monokian’s work. Mischief laid in wait underneath people’s houses plotting to join the topside world shown in Luis Garcia-Nerey’s sculpture Bridge Elsewhere. Every day planning to escape from its hive (Natasha Duwin) making plans that appear to us as patterns made by water or erosion (Jill Hotchkiss). Eventually Mischief finally figured out how to break from its suburban bonds using characters created in the works of Luisa Mesa, Neysa Jin-Felker, and Nina Surel, leaving the viewer to wonder, ‘just what will Mischief do now that its bonds have been broken’.
This show was constructed as a collaborative effort between the newly juried artists ushered into the ArtCenter/ South Florida from the year 2007 and the current Director of Exhibitions Jacquenette Arnette.
All the artists involved were juried into the Artist-in-Residence program in 2007 and have successfully completed and fully integrated into working in the ArtCenter’s community of artists.
