Leave A Legacy and The Miami Foundation announced today that Amy Rosenberg is the recipient of the 2013 Ruth Shack Leadership Award. The award is presented to an emerging leader who represents the qualities of ethics, dedication and service to Greater Miami embodied by The Miami Foundation’s former president, Ruth Shack. She will be recognized along with the Community Champion Award recipient, David Lawrence, Jr., at the 15th Annual Donor Next Door Luncheon, Wednesday, May 8, 2013, 11 a.m. at Jungle Island.

Rosenberg is an attorney and arts advocate who founded Overtown Music Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and showcasing the tradition of music that existed for decades in Overtown. Rosenberg currently serves as co-chair of the board of directors after spending many years as the arts and social service organization’s executive director. She recently joined the National YoungArts Foundation (formerly known as the National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts).

David Lawrence, Jr. is president of The Early Childhood Initiative Foundation and leads The Children’s Movement of Florida. The Community Champion Award is given to a person who has contributed to the nonprofit community and has shown a commitment to Greater Miami through their work.

“Amy has founded a number of meaningful organizations that are serving our community. As an alumnus of our leadership program, Miami Fellows, she exemplifies the commitment to Greater Miami that we seek to instill in young leaders. This honor is well-deserved by Amy,” said Javier Alberto Soto, president and CEO of The Miami Foundation.

“This leadership award recognizes individuals in our community who have demonstrated their commitment to advancing civic engagement, public service and building bridges among diverse groups,” said Hank Raattama, shareholder at Akerman Senterfitt and co-chair of LEAVE A LEGACY. “Through Amy’s work in the community, many other people have been inspired to work toward creating a more vibrant Miami.”

Sound Theory Live to Relaunch on Wynwood Radio May 10

Award-winning music program celebrates return at The Stage Miami

Miami, FL – May 1, 2013 – After four years of broadcasting on local jazz station WDNA, the musical performance and interview program Sound Theory Live has found a new home: Wynwood Radio.

“We’re excited about resuming Sound Theory Live with our new media partners Wynwood Radio and look forward to bringing the global listening public even more compelling programming and music,” says founder and host Carlos F. Garcia, who also owns the show’s brick and mortar venue, The Stage Miami. “We invite everyone to celebrate with us at The Stage on Friday, May 10th, 2013 beginning at 7 p.m. for an extended two-hour show or listen in on the web. Following the show, Wynwood Radio will continue to stream live from The Stage with acts and DJs throughout the night.”

Adds Wynwood Radio’s Vice President and Director Vicente Solis: “We are delighted to be Sound Theory Live’s new home and media partners. Carlos and his team have many positive liaisons with the different Miami musical scenes. We believe that his show, in an online radio environment, can thrive, become more agile, fun and can also enhance the opportunity for community expansion that Wynwood Radio nurtures as part of its DNA.”

The move to web won’t change the show format, which according to the program website is “geared towards promoting the great local musicians by showcasing their talents live on the radio.” It will allow for greater content freedom and a looser format not beholden to news updates and public service announcements. Garcia adds: “The show expects to have increased flexibility both in programming and in location. We hope to bring the show to venues and events all over South Florida to help continue moving the Miami music scene forward!”

Once again the show will feature Garcia, voted Miami New Times’ “Best FM Radio Personality” in 2010, as the host, with the assistance of co-hosts Sasha Torres, co-owner of The Stage, venue booking agent Eric Garcia and show veteran, Andrea Alarcon.

Slated to play live and be interviewed on the maiden Wynwood Radio webcast are: Afrobeta, Electric Piquete, Brendan O’Hara, Radioboxer, Humbert, The Problem Kids, Bachaco as well as veteran Miami DJs DJ Sire Esq., DJ Manuvers and many more. There are some surprise guests in store as well. The festivities and webcast commence May 10 at 7 p.m., during the show’s usual slot and time, and will continue through 9 p.m. Subsequently, Sound Theory Live will assume it’s regularly scheduled time on Wynwood Radio and be webcast from locations across South Florida and re-aired on Sunday afternoons, and potentially during other days and times.

Admission to the event at The Stage is free until 11 p.m. and $5 thereafter; enjoy 2-for-1 happy hour drink specials from 6 to 9 p.m. and other specials throughout the night. You can listen live on the web by navigating to www.wynwoodradio.com.

Rosenberg is an attorney and arts advocate who founded Overtown Music Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and showcasing the tradition of music that existed for decades in Overtown.  Rosenberg currently serves as co-chair of the board of directors after spending many years as the arts and social service organization’s executive director.  She recently joined the National YoungArts Foundation (formerly known as the National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts).

“Amy has founded a number of meaningful organizations that are serving our community.  As an alumnus of our leadership program, Miami Fellows, she exemplifies the commitment to Greater Miami that we seek to instill in young leaders.  This honor is well-deserved by Amy,” said Javier Alberto Soto, president and CEO of The Miami Foundation.

“This leadership award recognizes individuals in our community who have demonstrated their commitment to advancing civic engagement, public service and building bridges among diverse groups,” said Hank Raattama, shareholder at Akerman Senterfitt and co-chair of LEAVE A LEGACY. “Through Amy’s work in the community, many other people have been inspired to work toward creating a more vibrant Miami.”

Weird Miami Bus Tours: Hosted By César Trasobares 5/4/13

Weird Miami Bus Tours: Hosted By César Trasobares

(bus leaves promptly at 10am)
PickUp/DropOff:
BFI #BasFisherInvitational
100 Northeast 11th Street
Miami, FL 33132

The unstoppable Weird Miami Bus Tours continues with artist/curator/art activist, César Trasobares.
Working in Miami for more than three decades Trasobares will guide us through the stranger parts
of Cuban cultural and historic landscapes that Miami has to offer.
 
In his own work, César Trasobares revels in the political fallout of Cuba’s exiles in Miami.  Primarily made through
collage, installation and performance, Trasobares focuses on the Cuban rituals that have taken root onto
American soil and that have deeply affected the social fabric of the city of Miami.
 
From the exhibition, “The Cuban Evolution," art critic Benjamin Forgey of the Washington Post notes that
"César Trasobares is the one artist in the group who confronts the bicultural situation absolutely head-on
[in a piece from Trasobares’s ‘Quinceañera’ series]." This fearless spirit will extend to Cesar as tour-guide
for the Weird Miami bus tours!
 
On Saturday, May 4th, 2013, Trasobares will discuss the Cuban cultural imprint that has been evolving in Miami
for more than half a century.  The tour will be expansive: from talking about the monumental projects Trasobares has brought to Miami as Executive Director of Miami-Dade County’s Art In Public Places Program, to the personal and miniscule; Trasobares will draw from his personal memoirs-in-progress currently titled, Among Friends.
Trasobares will not only share stories from his personal relationships with many esteemed artists, but we will
be able to hear these stories on-site!
 
The tour will meet at the BasFisherInvitational space first. From here we will venture through historic area of Miami to view site specific works of art and learn about Miami’s Cuban heritage all with the bonus of a bottomless cup of Spanish sangria!
 
Pack a snack since our lunch break will not happen until 1:30 pm.
 
César E. Trasobares (born 1949 in Holguín, Cuba), is a Cuban-American artist specializing in Collage, Installation, and Performance. In 1970 he studied in the Miami Dade Community College, Associate of Arts, in Miami, Florida. He is a graduate of Florida Atlantic University (Bachelor of Arts), Florida. In the past four decades, Trasobares has organized and exhibited in numerous exhibitions. From 1985 to 1990 he served as Executive Director of Miami-Dade
County’s Art In Public Places Program. Keep an eye on the de la Cruz calendar: Trasorares will be giving a series of
lectures drawing from his memoir, Among Friends; the most recent lecture being “Carlos Alfonso In Context: Public and Private Voices.”

Sweetwater Zumbathon to Raise Awareness and Funds for Autism 5/4/13

Sweetwater Zumbathon to Raise Awareness and Funds for Autism
Saturday, May 4, 11 a.m.
Jorge Mas Canosa Youth Center
250 SW 114th Avenue
Sweetwater, FL 33174
Tickets cost $20 in advance, and $25 at the door. Purchase Online.

The City of Sweetwater has joined forces with the D Amor Foundation for Autism and is hosting a Zumbathon.

Come out and join City of Sweetwater Mayor Manny Maroño along with an all-star lineup of Zumba instructors to help raise money for families affected by autism. Money raised by the event will help families affected by autism by funding activities such as taekwondo, soccer, music, art and speech and occupational therapies.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one in 50 children is diagnosed with autism or a related disorder. Autism is a developmental disorder that affects a child’s ability to communicate, process sensory information and also affects social functioning. According to Autism Speaks, autism is the fastest-growing developmental disability in the U.S., and costs a family about $60,000 a year. There is no medical detection or cure for autism, and boys are nearly five times more likely than girls to be affected.
 
The D Amor Foundation was founded by Maria and Jose Montalvo in honor of their son, Diego, who was diagnosed with autism at age two. Their goal is to help families affected by autism in South Florida and Puerto Rico find resources and access to therapies that can be costly and are not covered by traditional health insurance.
 
“This is a fun way for families to come together to help children battling autism,” says Maria Rivero Montalvo, president of the D Amor Foundation. “We’re here to provide hope and support. With the money raised by this Zumbathon, we will be able to help fund programs that can make a huge impact in these children’s lives.”
 
The D Amor Foundation’s mission is to provide hope, and to help children with autism achieve a better quality of life by providing families with resources, educational tools and access to therapies such as speech, occupational, art, music and sensory integration, all of which are integral to managing the disorder.
The event will be led by Zumba Jammer Meli Kirkwood along with Miami Zumba Instructors Zumba Carrie, Eli Pereira, Susan Luria, Henray Cedeño, Janet Rentería, Maria Amelia Linares-Hemelberg, Marie Lourdes Buitrago, Morgan Zumba Cuenvo and Yvette Orozco. 
 
Maria Marin, international speaker and author, will be the presenter.

Take in Greater Miami and the Beaches’ Special Exhibits, World-Class Permanent Collections, Memorials & More with Buy One Get One Free (BOGO) and  "Join One – See Them All" Offerings
                                                                           
Art, history and culture are ingrained in every Greater Miami and the Beaches experience from sipping mojitos amidst iconic Art Deco buildings and strolling through murals along the Wynwood Walls to exploring the emerging Design District and browsing during Art Basel.  To celebrate its rich attractions and evolving art scene, the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB) brings Miami Museum Month to visitors and residents again this May 1 – 31:

BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE (BOGO): An ideal time to add a museum visit to your vacation or business trip itinerary or for families to spice up weekend plans, the "Buy One, Get One Free" gives admission to two for the price of one to any participating museum.

JOIN ONE, SEE THEM ALL: Absolutely the best time to join! When purchasing a membership at any one of the participating museums you can visit any of the other participating museums for free during Miami Museum Month. This saves visitors more than $50 per adult.

"The diverse experience that Greater Miami and the Beaches offers to our business and leisure visitors continues to evolve and it’s wonderful to see the growing popularity of our museums and cultural attractions," notes GMCVB President and CEO William D. Talbert, III, CDME.   "While visitors continue to enjoy our year-round sunshine and stunning beaches, we gladly welcome them to stay longer to enjoy more of what the destination has to offer – restaurants, nightlife, hotels, and spas as well as our new, emerging and heritage neighborhoods."

The Peter London Global Dance Company, Miami’s newest multicultural dance troupe, heats up the Carnival Studio Theater with a two-night stint featuring a choreographic sampler of six new works entitled “Spring Nights at the Arsht Center.” London’s choreography has received critical acclaim at AILEY’S Summer SIZZLER at the City Corp Theater in New York, NWSA performances at the Gusman Theater, The Colony Theater, South Miami-Dade Cultural Center and at the International Dance Festival in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

A dance visionary and veteran performer with the Martha Graham and José Limon dance companies, Peter London is now a dance professor at Miami-Dade College / New World School of the Arts and the Founder and Artistic Director of The Peter London Global Dance Company, which he created to establish a home-grown, world-class contemporary dance organization that promotes South Florida’s vibrant arts heritage. Mr. London’s vision was given an invaluable boost when his company received the 2011 Knight Arts Challenge grant award from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and support from The Miami Foundation. “I cannot begin to express how grateful I am to the Arsht Center staff for inviting and hosting my company,” said London. “The dancers are excited about this tremendous opportunity to perform in front of a larger audience in the heart of Miami at one of the most prestigious performing arts centers in the world. The hard work and steadfastness of the PLGDC dancers take us to new heights and we all feel blessed to showcase our talent to new audiences each time,” he continued.

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

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

Miami Marlins outfielder Logan Morrison has officially launched his own philanthropic campaign entitled “Project LoMo.” In partnership with the American Lung Association (ALA), “Project LoMo” encourages youth to create their own charitable program or event to help their community become a better place and/or support a cause that is important to them. Inspired by the philanthropic work Morrison has done with the ALA over the past several years, the Marlins outfielder is using this campaign as a call-to-action for children to make a positive impact and difference in their communities.

“After my father lost his battle with lung cancer, I felt like it was my responsibility to do everything I could to raise awareness for the disease,” said Morrison. “With this campaign, I want kids to understand that they, too, can make a difference. I want to empower them to start thinking outside-of-the-box and realize that they can spark social change. Young fans who carry out a project will also generate contributions for the American Lung Association. It’s a great campaign and I’m excited to review all the submissions.”

Morrison will officially launch the campaign on Wednesday, May 1 at Miami Senior High School, where he and his mother will reveal the contest details to students at 2:45 PM ET.

Individuals or teams have until August 1, 2013 to complete their initiative and communicate (via video, e-mail, or letter) to Morrison what they accomplished and learned. Each authentic submission will receive an autographed photo, an officially-licensed t-shirt jersey, and will also result in a $100 donation to the American Lung Association on behalf of the LoMo Lung Fund.

Additionally, “Project LoMo” will recognize five individuals or teams who submit particularly compelling projects aligned with the goals of the campaign. Each leader and a guest from the five winning projects will receive a trip to Miami, all-access to a 2013 Marlins home game, the opportunity to throw out the ceremonial first pitch, a meet-and-greet with Morrison and some of his Marlins teammates, and participation in a group video with Morrison to promote the ALA. Winning project individuals/teams will also receive a $1,000 cash prize.

The “Project LoMo” campaign is Morrison’s second major initiative aimed at promoting awareness and raising money for lung cancer research. “LoMo Camp for a Cure,” Morrison’s annual fundraising baseball clinic, takes place in Delray Beach, FL every January. To date, Morrison has raised over $200,000 for the ALA. For more information on “Project LoMo” please visit http://projectlomo.mlblogs.com/.

South Beach Comedy Festival 2013 was a Riot

The event, hosted by Comedy Central, is in its eighth magical year and is a veritable treat for South Beach. Continue reading “Review of 2013 South Beach Comedy Festival” →

100 NE 11th Street
Miami, Florida 33132

For the past few weeks AIRIE Fellow Alice Raymond has been working on an experimental mapping project, experiencing visitors’ perspectives on the Everglades National Park. In this artist talk she’ll share reflections on this project and her time at AIRIE.

Alice has been busy meeting rangers, scientists, and friends exploring the park with them to get their perspective. With a focus on human actions made through the park, she aims to get a global or outside sense of the use of the park, using her own view to put in balance others’ perspectives. Alice is interested in questioning the sense of wildness and landscape, looking at its evolution through decades and projects, pointing the permanent changes. She uses the vocabulary of maps as an example of the distortion between reality, perception and representation.

Following Alice’s talk we’ll share more information about the residency and the application process for 2014.

“New Beginnings” by Wendy White, a Play by the Children, for the Children premieres at ArtServe on Saturday, May 11, 2013 at 8:00 p.m.

New Light Theatre is proud to present “New Beginnings”, an original play written and developed by the children residing at the Shepherds Way/HOPE South Florida homeless shelter. The children will showcase their acting and singing talents, as they remind the audience that art transcends any circumstance.

“New Beginnings” will be performed by the children and will be accompanied by the New Light Players – Jessica Pusceddu, Gema Calero and Gabriel Villasmil. Original art by the children will be on exhibit and a film produced by Anais Dominguez portraying the making of “New Beginnings” will be featured.

Wendy White, President of the New Light Foundation, Inc, directs and produces this labor of love as a result of a dream to help children learn to express themselves via the medium of playwrighting. Wendy has been working year-round at the shelter in the children’s after school program, “ACES” (After-school – Art – Academics- Collaborations for Educational Success), and will ultimately present a documentary which shares the children’s hopes and dreams through their eyes.

“I am deeply honored to help the children who participate in the ACES program and reside at the homeless shelter how to express and share their stories – the program’s goal is to give the children hope by being heard and encouraged through their circumstances – what results is a creative way to have fun and joy through the arts,” states Wendy, also a Playwright and Artist.

Donations are accepted for the children and their families residing at Shepherd’s Way/HOPE South Florida. Tickets are $12 and can be purchased online at: www.newlightgallery.org or over the phone at: 954.829.0638.

“If you reach for the stars, all you get are the stars. But we’ve found a whole new spin. If you reach for the heavens, you get the stars thrown in.” —Mary Poppins

“HOPE South Florida is a partnership, a lead organization in a network of partner churches and organizations working together to provide a holistic Christian response to homelessness in our community. The Shepherd’s Way/HOPE South Florida provides shelter and life skill classes to homeless and hurting families throughout Broward County crossing denominational lines, Protestants and Catholics alike came together, united to serve individuals and families living on the streets.” For more information visit:https://www.hopesouthflorida.org/

The playwright and director, Wendy White has written over 120 one-act plays and was a resident playwright, curator and director at the Kraine Theater in the East Village of New York City from 1984 to 1992, and at the Expanded Arts Theater Company from 1994 to 2001, in the Lower East Side of New York City. Her off-Broadway productions are the base for her new venue at the New Light Theatre. She recently produced The Jewish Nun to sold-out audiences in Off-Broadway’s 59e59 Theatre and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland.

In 2009, the New Light Foundation, Inc. represented the United States as Art Ambassadors by the 1-2-3 Kinderlachen e.V. foundation of Rottenburg, Germany by hosting the international “Global Gallery” project (www.123kinderlachen.org). During the course of this important project, the “world’s biggest canvas” emerged; painted by children – transcending all borders and conflicts.

The New Light Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit public foundation, has won numerous awards around the globe, has performed everywhere from Amsterdam to Paris; from Miami to Los Angeles to New York City; and has tackled subjects relating to women, love, politics, and Shakespeare. More information about the writer and director, Wendy White can be found on her website:www.newlightgallery.org.

Wendy White would like to thank Vanessa Garcia, Artistic Director of Krane, Inc. for all her support in the process of developing New Beginnings – In 2010, Garcia, the Founding Artistic Director of Krane, Inc. was named one of Miami’s 20 Under 40 by The Miami Herald for her work in theatre. For more information about Garcia, please visit: www.vanessagarcia.org

This project is supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts.

Funding for this project is provided in part by the Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommended by the Broward Cultural Council.

Discover and trust your natural intuitive gifts and inner guidance for more satisfaction and joy. That’s the topic of a dynamic, interactive talk being presented by international lecturers Estelle Small and Patrick Kilhenny of the non-profit, educational organization, IPM (Inner Peace Movement) International.
Using this sixth sense comes in handy, from situations that require major decisions or simply knowing when to pop a dish out of the oven. Everyone is psychic and being sharply attuned to it helps life flow more smoothly. People gain trust, self-confidence and inner security when they start tapping into their psychic part. The lecture will also dip into an understanding about using inner guidance, or guardian angels, that help people with their unique missions in life.
This is an interactive lecture. Participants can even try a technique on using their intuition, and most are able to do it on the first try. Estelle Small and Patrick Kilhenny have been presenting on this topic for many years in North America and Europe. Their quest for understanding their sixth sense comes out of their own experiences.
Cost: $10.00

It is the third installment in the Indiana Jones franchise. Harrison Ford reprises the title role and Sean Connery plays Indiana’s father (although, in reality, Connery is just twelve years senior to Ford), Henry Jones, Sr. In the film, set largely in 1938, Indiana searches for his father, a Holy Grail scholar, who has been kidnapped by Nazis (Wikipedia)

Slow Art Day began after founder Phil Terry spent 30 minutes looking at Hans Hoffmann’s 1943 painting Fantasia at the Jewish Museum’s 2008 exhibition Action/Abstraction. The experience sparked an idea to help those outside the art world better appreciate museums’ offerings.

The newest member of South Florida’s art community, the Sanjuan-Brown Hollywood Arts Foundation, Inc. d/b/a Gallery 2014 provides an unprecedented opportunity for new and emerging artists from developing countries, as well as local and student artists who might otherwise lack access to the public, to showcase their quality, original pieces and sell them for fair value.

New C-Art Gallery Opening in Miami with Pop-up Exhibition 5/2/13

New C-Art Gallery Opening in Miami with Pop-up Exhibition
INVITACIONMay 2 at 7p.m.
O. Ascanio Gallery
2600 NW 2nd Ave
Wynwood Miami, FL
RSVP: info@c-artgallery.com

The newest gallery to open in Miami, C-Art Gallery, in collaboration with the prestigious Marlborough Gallery in New York, is pleased to present  “Reflections.” Curated by Kosme de Baraños, the show will take place as a “pop-up” exhibition, as the gallery will reveal its permanent home at a later date.

For his first solo exhibition in Miami, David Rodriguez Caballero presents thirty aluminum, brass and vinyl art works. His characteristic aluminum and brass pieces are from his metal series, while his vinyl works form part of an independent series that juxtaposes different layers of monochrome acetate resulting in a paint-like finish. The exhibit is comprised of geometric abstractions, wall installations and freestanding sculptures, taking spectators on a journey through the artist’s transition from three-dimensionality to sculpture.

David Rodríguez Caballero arrives in Miami for his solo exhibition after a strong showing at the Marlborough New York (Recent Works, Marlborough Chelsea, February 2012), and Madrid (Ongoing pieces, Marlborough Madrid, November 2012) that were well received by the public, critics and art collectors. In addition, his work was recently showcased at Art Basel Miami Beach, The Armory Show and Arco.

“I am honored that C-Art Gallery has given me this opportunity. Guests will be able to observe the breadth of my work, from my characteristic brass and aluminum pieces, to my recent aesthetic investigations and combinations of organic elements with inorganic elements.  The inspirations derived from living in New York over the past two years are apparent in my newer pieces — the skyscrapers and concrete mix with my visual thinking to produce abstract configurations,” said Rodriguez Caballero.

Director of C-Art Gallery Cesar Rodriguez stated, “we are excited to launch C-Art with such a visionary artist, it sets the tone for what we plan to do next. We are convinced that David’s work is an excellent option for contemporary art collectors throughout South Florida and Latin America, and are certain locals will enjoy the show.

“I am thrilled that his work will be showcased in Miami, his pieces will captivate both art collectors and art aficionados,” quipped Curator Kosme de Baraño. David Rodríguez Caballero is already creating the art works that will be shown in future exhibits, i.e. at the Carmen de Valencia Center in Spain in June of 2013, and the Monaco outpost of the Marlborough next October.

Barezzito South Beach will open its entrance in April 26, 2013 as an entertaining blend of sushi, bar and music elements. The restaurant’s fuse of Japanese cuisine, Latin touch and tropical influences paired with fresh ingredients and mixology, sparks an influential punch on the palate. Architecturally enhanced walls and ceilings, creative furniture design with pops of color and sleek flooring at Barezzito South Beach will turn into a party every night. Barezzito was originally conceptualized in Leon, Mexico in 2003 and has since become a staple in being recognized as refined, comfortable, versatile, innovative, contemporary, unique and delicious. End of March, the Miami Beach location will be the 13th Barezzito establishment, first in the United States, setting a new standard in dining and partying never before seen or felt in the United States.

Positioned in the new Boulan Shops at Collins Park, on the legendary Collins Avenue in South Beach Miami, FL across from the Setai Hotel & Residences. The doors will always be open for both locals and visitors alike in this unrestrained 4,200 sq. ft. of space. Whether selecting from an outdoor or indoor ambiance, anyone can appreciate the prominent exterior deco structure, interior artistic lighting of changeable colors, warm hand crafted décor and Ébano finished floors of Barezzito South Beach.

Hailing from Mexico, Grupo Impulza has done it again, as this will be the group’s 50th establishment opened in ten years and their first in the United States. Omar Quesada and Oscar Webber own Grupo Impulza, and have chosen Miami’s local, Antar Sosa, to lead the successful string of restaurants into South Beach. Sosa has ten years of service industry experience and anticipates opening future Barezzitos’ in South Florida and nationally with other concepts.

“Barezzito will be so different than what is going on here in South Beach. There are very little customer value positioned restaurants or places with amazing entertainment, along with enjoyable food too. Placing our focus on sushi and tapas, along with having live music and DJs every day of the week, with a well-priced menu, there will always be something happening where you know you can enjoy all aspects, all together. Happy hours, live entertainment and nightly parties will be our focus as there is also an advantage to providing this in our market and niche area.”

Barezzito South Beach will integrate sushi to sashimi, bottles to cocktails, DJ to live music and tapas and more, Barezzito South Beach is projected to be a distinguished entertainment based restaurant venue open late for a salubrious taste.

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

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

DAVID ROHN

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

DANILO DE LA TORRE / ADORA

Born in Havana Cuba .
Trained in classical ballet . Worked in musical theater and cabaret from age of seventeen.
Went to Paris France in 1985 to join Le Ballet Theatre de la Seine, where he continued to work in contemporary and modern dance.
Visit Miami Beach in 1986 (later to be know as South Beach) Relocated there, soon to become Adora, an icon whose outrageous bouffant wigs, extraordinary make up and captivating stage presence made him/her the undisputed “Queen of South Beach”, a title that survives even in that somewhat changed Scene.
Adora’s repertoire of lip-sycned interpretations include a variety of music from Yma Sumac to Opera, Edith Piaf to La Lupe.
In 2008, de la Torre formed ‘Homo-Sapiens (Art for evolution) with long-time collaborator David Rohn; their first project Silencio, involved an unspoken performance Piece about a Guard and Muslim inmate of a Gitmo style Detention Camp who fall in love. They have since produced a number of performance and video and photographic works that have been produced and exhibited in Germany, Israel and the USA.

ALEXIS TRIGOURA

Born in 1971 and raised in Regla, Cuba, Alexis Trigoura experienced the quintessential Cuban childhood. His family’s name was well-known throughout Cuba due to their popular and successful butcher shop. In 1980, however, due to the progressively intense demands of Castro’s regime, Alexis and his family were compelled to leave their beautiful homeland. Alexis, just ten at the time, joined his father, mother and two brothers on the 90-mile pilgrimage to U.S. shores via the Mariel Boat Lift.
Alexis learned of his love of painting early in life, at the age of three. The media he enjoyed most was watercolor but he later discovered charcoal, oil, acrylic and pastels. He didn’t stop there. Sculpture inspired him as well and, with his resourceful imagination, Alexis created sculptures with whatever materials he could find.
It wasn’t until his adult years – after being a flight attendant and traveling around the world – that Alexis realized no other place captured the beauty and sincerity of Cuba. An intense desire to return home gave him the courage to visit and photograph the island he left behind 24 years earlier. Alexis’ photographs capture memories of his colorful childhood and the love of an island he once called home.

Walking Into Walls (And Curtains), a workshop by Asher Hartman 4/29/13

Posted on    by

Walking Into Walls (And Curtains), a workshop by Asher Hartman
Asher Hartman WorkshopMonday, April 29, 6:00-9:00 pm
Cannonball
1035 North Miami Avenue, Suite 200
Miami, FL 33136
Free and open to all
Kindly RSVP to splash@cannonballmiami.org  or 786-347-2360.

Cannonball (Miami, FL) and Machine Project (Los Angeles, CA) are thrilled to announce a workshop by artist Asher Hartman. Free and open to the public, Walking into Walls (and Curtains) is a workshop of actors and visual artists interested in stirring up new ideas about “live art.”

We will collectively ponder and perform questions about the ways in which the coupling of actor and artist can spark new ideas about the relationships between the being and the object; space, place and text; seeing and sensing, making and witnessing. Our goal is to rethink the ways in which crossing disciplinary boundaries can widen the sight lines of live art.

The fine print: without making a grand distinction between performance art and theater, we may consider spoken texts, naturalistic and other acting techniques, and blocking and choreography, meditation, and energy work as useful tools, and we will be thinking about concepts of audience and stage. Everyone will perform.

Hartman’s workshop and public performance, "The Florida Room," are part of a new collaboration between Cannonball and Machine Project, offering three Los Angeles-based artists research residencies at Cannonball and the resources to create new performance-based works in response to Miami. Participating artists include Corey Fogel, Asher Hartman, and Juliana Snapper. This collaborative project is generously supported, in part, by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.

Asher Hartman is an interdisciplinary artist, independent curator, and psychic based in Los Angeles. His practice centers on the exploration of the self in relation to Western histories and ideologies. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, including shows at the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; Beijing Open Performance Festival, Beijing; Hayward Gallery, London; Cultural Center of the Philippines, Manila; Recontres International, Paris and Berlin; Torrance Art Museum, CA; MIX, New York; London Underground Film Fest and Images, UK; and in a number of Los Angeles venues including Machine Project, LACE, Sea and Space Exhibitions, Monte Vista Projects, Human Resources, and The Hammer Museum.
Hartman received his BA from University of California, Los Angeles, and his MFA from California Institute of the Arts, Valencia.

The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery has acquired several large scale Elman portraits. Most recently, it acquired Elman’s portraits of Pulitzer Prize recipient Jhumpa Lahiri and U.S. Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky. These acquisitions join Elman’s portraits of Pulitzer Prize recipients Alan Dugan and Stanley Kunitz in the museum’s permanent collection. Elman’s 1991 portrait of poet Stanley Kunitz standing in his beloved garden following its devastation by Hurricane Bob is included in a current exhibition at the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery titled Poetic Likeness: Modern American Poets. That exhibition continues until April 28, 2013.

Elman has made over 200 paintings in this series of notable talents such as Norman Mailer, Robert Motherwell, Douglas Huebler, Justin Kaplan, Joel Meyerowitz, Annie Dillard, Mark Strand, Sebastian Junger, Alec Wilkinson, E.J. Kahn, Jr., Varujan Boghosian, Al Jaffee, Lee Falk, Elise Asher, Anne Bernays, and Ruth Reichl. The dimensions of most works are either 60 x 43 inches or 40 x 30 inches.

Elman has maintained a studio on the tip of Cape Cod in the Provincetown Art Colony since 1970. In 1989, after a half-lifetime of making only abstract art, he started portraying the Provincetown Art community at leisure – what people do when they are not working – the fabric of life that draws people back every year. Now a full-time Miami Beach resident, Elman has turned his focus to portraying the people and culture of Miami.

Grand Opening Celebration
Sponsored by Chivas Regal
$10 Admission; Free for BAC Members and Miami Museum Month Participating Organizations’ Members

The Bakehouse Art Complex (BAC), South Florida’s premiere center for emerging and mid-career artists, proudly announces the completion of the Audrey Love Pavilion.
 
The Audrey Love Charitable Foundation recognized the Bakehouse Art Complex for its role in the fabric of Miami’s cultural community with a gift of $250,000. The renovation, funded by the grant, has completely transformed and improved the main entrance to the facility. With its signature flour silos still intact, BAC has converted the courtyard into an inviting outdoor event space. Award-winning architectural firm Shulman + Associates, located in Miami’s Design District, designed the renovations to enable patrons to experience the BAC in a whole new light. New features include a pedestrian ramp with integrated seating leading up to new large glass doors, a window looking into the gallery, a stage for performances, and state-of-the-art lighting. The renovation also provides the opportunity for BAC resident artists working with large scale sculptures to showcase their work outside of the building.
 
"This is the first significant capital development project since the organization’s inception nearly 27 years ago. We are so very grateful to the Audrey Love Foundation, Shulman + Associates, and our board member, Dr. Robert Apfel, for their support and dedication to the Bakehouse Art Complex," expressed Arlys Raymond, Executive Director of the Bakehouse Art Complex.
 
The late Audrey Love of The Audrey Love Foundation was a lifelong patron of the arts, a benefactor of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Metropolitan Opera, an early supporter of the Lowe Art Museum at the University of Miami, The Frost Museum at FIU, and the Florida Grand Opera. Audrey Love passed away in 2003 at the age of 100. The foundation’s recognition of the Bakehouse Art Complex signifies an appreciation for the facility’s 25-year commitment to creativity in the visual arts in Miami and its commitment to the future. And it has given the Bakehouse Art Complex the opportunity, and excuse, to let her name live on in Miami attached to a physical entity, The Audrey Love Gallery and Pavilion.

Just as the Impressionists challenged the Académie des Beaux-Arts with their independent exhibitions in 19th Century Paris, or street artists such as Banksy stirred emotion in the streets of London in the 90s, this group of young, forward-thinking artists is shaping the face of their growing world-class city. As Miami grows into a major global city and establishes its cultural identity, this avant-garde collective of young artists has made it their mission to contribute a unique substance to the landscape of culture and art. Calling the burgeoning artistic hubs of Miami their home, their vision is of a Miami recognized for class and connoisseurship in modern art forms, including hip-hop, deep house, nu-disco and the various genres that inhabit Miami’s underground, waiting to burst to the surface. Welcome to our vision.

This event hosted by the Young Artist Initiative will take place at Bardot. Bardot is an intimate live music venue located in Miami’s Design and Art District in Wynwood. A small living room setting mixed with state of the art sound make it ideal for artists to perform and enthusiasts to let loose.

The First Ever Miami Dishcrawl Was A Blast

Who doesn’t love a pub crawl? With the exception of recovering alcoholics, mormons, fanatical Muslims, or otherwise lame people– Everyone loves a fucking pub crawl. That’s why we were elated at the notion of a Dishcrawl, a group of foodies crawling to multiple restaurants to pound some damn good food. Dishcrawl made it’s Miami debut, Wednesday, April 17th where more then 30 guests bounced around Bickell sampling it’s fares.

This time we crawled through Brickell visting EDGE Steak and Bar, Vapiano, OTC (Over the Counter) and The Hoxton.

Communication would be sporadic; remembrances of earlier conversations, intermittent pictures and short emails. The games of their youth informed many bodies of work for each of them; in the form of photography for Daniel and sculpture, film and installation for JJ.
Daniel Peet’s photographs are a visual tour of the disarming, forgotten, and astonishing scenes he comes across scouring the streets of his hometown, Saint Paul, Minnesota. In addition, he has made large photographic panels featuring what he calls Everyday Objects.
JJ PEET has been the Resistance, the Luxury Leader, and the Sunday Painter. His work is produced inside a series of small studios. He makes paintings, sculptures, film and drawing.

Their collaborative exhibition will be on view at Gallery Diet through June 1st, 2013. This is the first time Daniel is exhibiting in Miami. This will be JJ’s second exhibition at Diet.

Friday Tickets – Saturday Early Tickets – Saturday Late Tickets

Cannonball (Miami, FL) and Machine Project (Los Angeles, CA) are thrilled to announce the premiere of Asher Hartman’s new experimental play The Florida Room. This two-hour live, public play will take place at two private residences in the MiMo district of Miami and feature actors Franc Baliton, Rochelle Fabb, Michael Morrissey, Paul Outlaw, and Joe Seely.

The play’s non-linear, poetic narrative concerns a man who has become so alienated from himself at mid-life that he is split into beings, gradually becoming a deity whose creative and destructive impulses have a profound effect on his closest friends. Beneath the mythically charged plot is a terse exploration of psychological violence, debt, friendship, and the American quest for security. Audiences watch as the play unfolds around them. Musical, nastily funny, and haunting, The Florida Room makes us think about the deep emotional attachment we have to the material world.

Hartman’s public performance and workshop, Walking Into Walls, are part of a new collaboration between Cannonball and Machine Project, offering three Los Angeles-based artists research residencies at Cannonball and the resources to create new performance-based works in response to Miami. Participating artists include Corey Fogel, Asher Hartman, and Juliana Snapper. This collaborative project is generously supported, in part, by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.

Chris and Bob are talented, award-winning artists in their own right and will incorporate drawing/painting demonstrations into their presentation.

In Chris’s latest EVERYONE CAN LEARN TO RIDE A BICYCLE: Learning to ride a bike is one of the most important milestones of childhood, and no one captures the emotional ups and downs of the experience better than Chris Raschka, who won the 2012 Caldecott Medal for A Ball for Daisy. Using very few words and lots of expressive pictures, here is a picture book that not only shows kids how to learn to ride, but captures what it feels like to fall . . . get up . . . fall again . . . and finally “by luck, grace, and determination” ride a bicycle!

Bob Staake’s latest BLUEBIRD: In this emotional picture book, readers will be captivated as they follow the journey of a bluebird as he develops a friendship with a young boy and ultimately risks his life to save the boy from harm. Bob Staake has been working on this book for 10 years, and truly believes he was born to write this story.

This event is brought to us by Random House Unplugs: Random House is committed to helping schools, libraries and bookstores nationwide UNPLUG and Read during Screen Free Week to raise awareness about the importance of balancing screen time against other developmentally important tasks, like reading.

Join us as we welcome Ella Cisneros, a Venezuelan –born major art collector, who runs the Cisneros Fontanels Foundation in Miami.

If anything defines the adventure of twentieth-century art it is its liberation from the pursuit of beauty as an end in itself. It was a moment of change in which art and artists arose as researchers and producers of knowl¬edge, reflection and experience. In this convulsive panorama that shook the very foundations of art, as we can see in Pulses of Abstraction in Latin America, we find some of the most inspiring experiences and ex¬plorations ever to occur in the history of art.

There will be a conversation between Ella Cisneros and Peter Boswell, Museum of Art | Fort Lauderdale Curator at Large.
