Gina Otto Change My World Now Initiative Tour Stop At Dadeland Mall
Saturday, November 12th
Dadeland Mall
7535 N. Kendall Drive
Miami, Florida
www.simon.com.
Dadeland Mall, Miami’s premier, fashion-forward shopping destination, is setting the stage for Gina Otto, author of the award winning modern-day fairytale Cassandra’s Angel. Otto is pioneering a movement to inspire self-confidence around the globe with her national “Change My World Now Initiative,†making a stop at Dadeland Mall Saturday, November 12th.
“Dadeland Mall is proud to host the “Change My World Now Initiativeâ€. The message Otto’s Cassandra’s Angel sends is crucial for children of all ages in our community,†said Humberto Maldonado, director of marketing and business development for Dadeland Mall. “It is amazing to see how kids can still be inspired by reading, and we are glad Dadeland will be able to bring this initiative to our community of families.â€
What began as a children’s book has since evolved into a global movement, including a musical set to be on Broadway in 2012. The national “Change My World Now Initiative†is a unique blend of entertainment and activism, and infuses award-winning literature with catchy tunes to inspire kids. In an era where children suffer from low self-esteem, Otto will hit 20 markets (schools and malls) as part of her effort to help children of all ages cultivate a better sense of confidence.
Children and their families will have the opportunity to become empowered at one of two 45 minute shows in the Saks Fifth Avenue corridor of Dadeland Mall. The first show will start at 1:00 p.m. followed by a second show at 3:00 p.m. The event will kick off with an intro from a musical cast member, followed by an inspiring speech given by Otto, a fun video, songs performed by seven members of the cast, culminating with a meet and greet with the cast and author.
For additional information about the “Change My World Now Initiative†and author, Gino Otto, please visit www.CassandrasAngel.com, Facebook: Cassandra’s Angel, or Twitter @cassandrasangel.

Tuesday and Wednesday, October 18 & 19 at 7:30pm
Chef Adrianne’s
11510 SW 147 Avenue
Miami, Fl 33196
for reservations please call (305)408-8386 or (305)408-8388 and follow Chef Adrianne Calvo on Twitter or Facebook.
Have you ever been blindfolded? Experience the nuances of your other senses dictating what you are enjoying without seeing. Chef Adrianne Calvo, an innovative Miami-based culinary artist whose rise to fame has been accomplished through bold concepts and exquisite cuisines, asks you to TASTE, FEEL, HEAR and SMELL as she continues her highly-regarded Dark Dining series Tuesday and Wednesday, October 18 & 19 at 7:30pm.
Chef Adrianne’s Vineyard Restaurant and Wine Bar, the enclave that has become an epicenter of gastronomic creativity in the highly competitive South Florida restaurant scene, will serve as the host location for this sensual dining adventure. This highly regarded culinary gem tucked away from all the vapid South Beach scene, brings to mind Napa Valley and is emphasized by the Northern Californian décor and menu inspirations for the evening.
Step away from the norm and try a completely new way to dine that will heighten you senses, develop your taste buds and aide you to participate in uninhibited conversation with your date. You will be surprised at what happens when you know no one is watching.
The concept of “Dark Dining,†which enjoyed significant popularity throughout Europe for several years before its introduction in various major cities throughout the United States, has been defined as “a sensory overload encounter that maximizes the art of flavor by suppressing vision, and therefore creates the ultimate in dining experience.†The concept was introduced on a wide scale in the Zurich, Switzerland-based eatery Blindekuh in 1999, which was owned by blind clergyman Jorge Spielmann. European cities such as Paris, Cologne, Berlin, and Hamburg eventually followed suit and now boast numerous restaurants that feature this extraordinary dining alternative.
The Dark Dining format, which entails that participants dine blindfolded in a particularly dimly-lit setting throughout a multiple-course meal, has proven to be an ideal platform for the work of a chef that is already renowned for her ability to pleasantly surprise her guests and their palates on a regular basis with dishes that feature a succulent, and often unprecedented, combination of flavors. With their sight temporarily unavailable, Dark Dining guests at Chef Adrianne’s are able to hone all of their other senses in on their meals, considerably enhancing their level of enjoyment.

Amnesia Miami: The Legend Returns
Co-Owners Andre & Gregory Boudou, Bob Sinclar & Pierre Denain To Make Amnesia’s Return to South Beach Official with a Grand Opening Celebration on October 21st, 2011
Co-owners Andre Boudou, Gregory Boudou, Bob Sinclar and Pierre Denain are thrilled to announce the highly anticipated reopening of world-renowned nightclub, Amnesia Miami. Amnesia Miami will officially open its doors on Friday, October 21, 2011, at the 136 Collins Avenue building – the same spot where Amnesia originally reigned over Miami’s night scene between 1993 and 1996.
“I built the first Amnesia Miami 20 years ago and now, together with my son Gregory, we have combined our experiences from previous ventures around the world to enhance the Amnesia concept with all new, top of the line technology.†said Amnesia Founder and co-owner Andre Boudou. “After working closely with the world’s best DJs for over 20 years, I designed Amnesia with the purpose of providing the best possible room for artists to showcase their talent,†adds co-owner Gregory Boudou. Co-owner and world renowned DJ and music producer Bob Sinclar adds, “With the combination of my influence and this one-of-a-kind musician’s haven, Amnesia Miami will lend itself to be the playground for the world’s most highly recognized celebrities and artists.”
The all-new Amnesia Miami takes over 29,000 square feet of multi-level internal space. The venue’s all-white interior exudes an avant-garde dimension of technology never seen before. The club boasts over 150 intelligent lighting fixtures, a custom-built Funktion One sound system, and five grand format LED screens with programmable moving capabilities, all which trigger the ambience for the main stage. The spacious dance floor is surrounded by 70 VIP tables, 2 private VIP sections, and a 2nd floor mezzanine, with direct views of the club’s guest DJs and performing artists. When the featured talent is not gracing Amnesia’s main stage, they can opt to relax in the Pre-Show Lounge or record tunes in the fully functional custom-designed recording studio. The combination of Bob Sinclar’s influence and this one of a kind musician’s haven, Amnesia Miami will lend itself to be the playground for the world’s most highly recognized celebrities and music artists.
Since the mid 1980’s, Andre Boudou’s worldwide brand, Amnesia, has marked over 27 consecutive years of global success. The creation of his first nightclub was pioneered in Cap d’Agde, France in 1984, and rapidly flourished as the leading dance venue in the country by offering an irreplaceable entertainment platform for the clubbing community. After shaping the venture into a worldwide renowned product, Mr. Boudou, joined by his son Gregory, decided to expand Amnesia’s presence overseas in 1993, and formed the legendary icon known as Amnesia Miami, which continuously elevated the art of clubbing for 5 full years. After almost two decades away from home, the newly transformed Amnesia Miami returns.
Amnesia Miami is located at 136 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach, FL 33139 and will be open Friday & Saturday nights from 11 PM – 5 AM. For more information and/or reservations, please visit www.AmnesiaMiami.com or call 305.538.2424 or email info@amnesiamiami.com

The fourth annual “Reason to Run†5K run/walk and family event benefitting CancerFree KIDS Pediatric Cancer Research Alliance
Saturday, November 5, at 8 a.m.
Deering Estate
16701 S.W. 72 Avenue
On-site registration and check-in will begin at 7 a.m. The registration fee is $25 for adults before October 25. The fee increases to $30 thereafter. For more information on the race event or to register, please visit www.reasontorun.org or call (305) 807-7079.
To date, the event has raised more than $100,000 for pediatric cancer research. Dr. Julio Barredo of UM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center received the first local award last year for a study entitled Targeting Glycolysis and the AMPK Regulated Metabolic Networks in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). This year, event organizers hope to raise enough money to purchase the Bio-Plex 200. The instrument would allow for complex analyses of protein and nucleic acid vital to the research being conducted at UM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.
The “Reason to Run†5K run/walk is the brainchild of avid marathoners and training partners Linda Martinez and Lisette Zamora. Both women have participated in a number of fundraising events for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
“Finding cures for pediatric cancers took on a special meaning for my family four years ago when my then 5-year-old nephew was diagnosed with a brain tumor,†said Linda Martinez, event organizer. “Through the work of dedicated doctors and nurses, he is winning his fight. But the fact remains that cancer is the number one disease killer of children, and the treatments currently available often negatively impact the quality of life for those who survive. Events such as this one will help fund life-saving research while raising awareness that there is still much work to be done.â€
After the run/walk, participants will be invited to enter the Deering property for a post-race event that will include a raffle, music, food, drinks, bounce-houses and other entertainment in the family area.
All participants will be automatically entered to win one of many raffle prizes. Those wishing to enter, but not run, can make a donation or purchase a raffle ticket for five dollars.
Sponsors for “Reason to Run†5K run/walk include: Palmetto Ford, SeaView Research, HiTEX Marketing, Jackson South Community Hospital, Dolphin Mall and Preferred Care Partners.
CancerFree KIDS’ mission is to fund life-saving research of childhood cancers. CFK supports research by raising funds in a myriad of ways and by actively advocating for additional funding of pediatric cancer research on a national level. The non-profit 501(c)(3) organization was founded on the belief that research can lead to a cure, not only for children, but for everyone. For additional information, visit www.cancerfreekids.org.

1111 Lincoln Road
1111 Lincoln Road, 7th Floor
Miami Beach, FL 33139
Purchase Tickets Online.
The Wolfsonian-FIU Visionaries invite you to join us in an otherworldly celebration of cocktails, dining, music and dancing on 11.11.11 at 1111 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach. Tickets to this amazing event are $150 per person with net proceeds benefiting The Wolfsonian-FIU Museum.
The Wolfsonian Visionaries will host 11:11:11, the second annual Visionaries’ fundraiser to benefit The Wolfsonian–Florida International University. The event will run from 7:00-11:11pm on Friday, November 11, 2011, at the landmark 1111 Lincoln Road garage. The evening, which also marks The Wolfsonian’s 16th anniversary, will feature signature dishes from Miami’s top restaurants and caterers, as well as top shelf spirits from Bacardi. DJ Mauricio Parra will curate the music, and the images of artist Emilio Chapela will be on display in a site-specific installation. The evening will also include a surprise interactive event to mark 11:11pm.
The Wolfsonian opened its doors on Washington Avenue on November 11, 1995, and the Visionaries have embraced this special date as the theme for their yearly fundraiser. “November 11, 2011 is a very special, transcendent moment of good will, and we’ve designed the 11:11:11 party with an emphasis on a feeling of euphoria, on celebrating a celestial moment,†says Jose Zaldivar, a member of the Visionaries host committee. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime moment. We’re celebrating the moment, the here and now, and making this party a true celebration of life.â€
The event will take place on the seventh floor of 1111 Lincoln Road, which offers panoramic views of Miami Beach. The mixed-use concrete and glass parking facility, developed by Robert Wennett, designed by Herzog & de Meuron, and opened in 2009, has become somewhat of a surprise event destination. Architect Jacques Herzog describes the structure as “all muscle without cloth,†in keeping with the Miami Beach aesthetic. Wennett, an emeritus member of The Wolfsonian’s Advisory Board, has generously donated the space for the event.
Zaldivar has designed the space to feel heavenly, “like a cloud of light.†It will be illuminated by images from a book on the theme of 11:11:11 by the artist Emilio Chapela, commissioned by Wennett for the event. Finally, at 11:11 p.m., guests will enjoy a surprise performance art piece. The evening features an impressive selection of tasting tables representing a dozen restaurants and caterers donating their services, including Le Basque, Lovely Daze Desserts, Lyon + Lyon, Meat Market, Petit Pois Events & Catering, Ortanique, Rosa Mexicano, Shake Shack, Stella’s Sweet Shoppe, and Thierry’s Catering. Each will serve a signature dish. “They are really going to wow people with the food,†says Zaldivar. Additional confirmed event sponsors include The Shore Club, Alhambra Antiques, ArtNexus, Fiction Events, and Jacober & Associates.
The Wolfsonian Visionaries is comprised of young professionals from Miami’s arts and business communities who are committed to promoting The Wolfsonian through innovative events and design-related programming. The 11:11:11 host committee includes Olga Granda-Scott and Douglas Scott, Aimet and Josh Oberhausen, Jaime Odabashian, Lucia Schito, and Jose Zaldivar. Tickets are $150 per person.

Dance With Me Photography Exhibit by Nicole Kent
November 5, 2011, 7-10pm
1310 Gallery
1310 SW 2nd CT (Middle St)
Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312
www.nicolekent.com
If your knowledge of dance is reduced to fist pumping and shaking your money maker, fine art photographer, Nicole Kent will broaden your repertoire when her first solo exhibit, Dance With Me, debuts at 1310 Gallery on November 5, 2011. Dance With Me is an in-depth exploration of Nicole’s fascination with dance and motion as a vehicle for conveying human emotion. Her images capture the beauty of dancers as they glide across the stage, defy gravity with acrobatic stunts, or pop and lock. To reinforce the concept of movement in her work, Nicole has chosen to showcase lenticular prints, a unique printing process that gives the viewer the illusion of motion as they walk across the room. The opening and closing receptions will feature live performances by dancers from Impact Dance Company, My Bollywood Studio, and Body & Soul Dance Theatre, many of whom are featured in her work. After being inspired by three floors of new moves, Nicole invites you to join her at The Green Room for the exhibit’s after party.

Featured are Antonio Madruga, piano, Felipe Lamoglia, sax, Russell Hall, bass, and Goetz Kujack, drums. The Quartet appears courtesy of KCC Productions and is opening for Spyro Gyra.
Antonio (“Tony”) Madruga was born in 1994 in Pembroke Pines, Florida. His home environment is one where music is highly appreciated. His father Omar played the trumpet during his youth, and his mother Cora prenatally exposed Tony to classical, jazz, and rhythm and blues by placing headphones on her abdomen. He began formal piano lessons at five, and has always loved to jazz up any song regardless of its original genre.
Tony has participated in local talent events since the age of eight and has earned various awards. He has appeared at the Lincoln Theater in Miami Beach, in Lecce, Italy, as part of the Miami International Piano Festival, and at the Golandsky Institute Symposium in Princeton, NJ. At Princeton he performed with Danilo Perez. He was featured in Jazziz magazine in October 2005.
He made his solo debut in 2006 for the Miami International Piano Festival at the Lincoln Theater. He was a guest performer in with Bill Charlap’s master Class at the 92nd Street Y festival in Manhattan. He was featured on HBO’s family special “The Music in Me”, performed with Danilo Perez at the Panamanian Jazz Festival, and played at the New York jazz Club Sweet Rhythm with David Rozenblatt (drums) and Matt Fieldes (bass). Paquito D’Rivera made a guest appearance with him, and he appeared on Leonard Lopate’s program on radio station WNYC. He also made a guest appearance at Birdland with the Chico O’Farrill Jazz Orchestra and at Carnegie Hall as the guest of Paquito D’Rivera.
He received a DownBeat magazine student award for outstanding solo jazz performance and as best classical pianist. He performed with Paquito D’Rivera at the Duke Ellington Jazz Festival in 2007, and in 2009 was invited to back up Paquito and Wynton Marsalis at the White House. In 2011 he joined Esaperanza Spalding at the Grammy awards in the 2011 Grammy Jazz Ensemble on national TV. That same year Wynton Marsalis named him to his “Who’s Got Next†list of rising young jazz musicians. In the summer he was named a semi-finalist in the prestigious Thelonious Monk competition. This is a story which is obviously just beginning!

Saturdays 11-4 by appointment only
Free admission – Free parking
In room #104, visitors will have the opportunity to admire a spectacular portrait of José MartÃ, the great Cuban politician and writer, its author being Juan Manuel Freire, a Miami artist. It is important to emphasize that it is not an ordinary portrait: On a canvas measuring 56 x 66 inches (1.42 x 1.68 mts) the artist has pasted more than 650 photos of the most important buildings and monuments that existed in Cuba during the 1920’s in its six provinces. On the frame, those six provinces are represented by their emblems, territories and photos of their outgoing political forces at the time. In short, it is an artwork which comprises several steps: beginning with the idea itself, the research for photographs, the design of the portrait itself by using each one of the photos which had to be shaped up to conform the features, expression and shape of Jose Marti’s face. In almost all the photos monuments, buildings and residences are easily identified (under the right eye visitors will immediately realize the photo is that of the Havana Terminal Railway Station and under the left eye the photo shown is that of the Hotel Continental Colón , Province of Matanzas, etc.) This artwork will be exhibited at Room #104 together with paintings from the Museum Collection

Debuting The First “Crash The Ball†Party
Led By A Collection Of Celebrities, Famed Artists, And Established And Emerging Socialites
Historically Miami’s most elite formal affair since its inception in 1983, and amplified over the last 10 years by Art Basel Miami Beach’s most posh patrons, this year’s Miami Art Museum (MAM) Ball will mark new firsts with celebrity hosts, artist ambassadors, and the first-ever “Crash the Ball†party. Opening the door to a dynamic new guest list, this year’s hosts and ambassadors range from famed artists to bold face names the likes of Gloria Estefan and Dolphins owner Steve Ross; the next set of socialites and collectors; and Miami and Art Basel’s most established gala goers. The MAM Ball is upping the ante to once again be the most coveted affair during Miami Art Week and Miami’s social calendar.
As the Museum’s largest annual fundraiser, the MAM Ball welcomes recognized artists Carlos Betancourt, Jacin Giordano, Michael Loveland, Gean Moreno & Ernesto Oroza, Martin Oppel, Leyden Rodriguez-Casanova, Jen Stark and Frances Trombly, bringing an authentically artistic crowd to the black-tie bash. Miami’s biggest art patrons including Jorge M. Pérez, a top collector of Latin American art in the US; Gary Nader, owner of one of the largest galleries in the world; the sugar empire’s Fanjul family and many more, will unite all corners of Miami’s sophisticated circles.
The Ball will conclude with the first annual premiere of “Crash the Ball†as the official after party led by MAM Contemporaries, the museum’s young professional group. Guests will step outdoors into a lavish video lounge on the waterfront terrace, as one of Miami’s hottest deejays transforms the event into Basel’s biggest dance party.
Patrons of the Ball will be treated to an exclusive viewing of Miami-based, internationally acclaimed artist Dara Friedman’s latest video work, Dancer. Each centerpiece will be designed by one of MAM’s featured artists, available for guests to take home at $500 each, offering a meaningful memory and piece of art from an epic evening.

After a Summer of smoldering festival sets including Camp Bisco, Amberland and Blackwater, Oxford Mississippi’s Zoogma is ready to bring their brand of electric fusion to the Culture Room. A blend of Electronica, Rock, Jazz, World and Hip-Hop, Zoogma is a musical experience that appeals to a range of audiences with a sound that is all their own yet steeped in the dance music tradition. Joining them is Miami’s SOUNDUO, a musical collaboration between producers/musicians Will Mills and Zach Morillo. SOUNDUO has showcased their abilities in the studio and during live performances, opening for such artists as Big Gigantic and Elliot Lipp and playing major music festivals including Ultra 2011 and Blackwater. They’ve remixed Conspirator and Afrobeta (released by Ultra Records), and independently released their first EP, “Future Dub is my Hobby” for free online.
Zoogma combine the sonic diversity and precision of a DJ with the excitement and immediacy of a five-piece rock group. Known for their energetic performances and retina pleasing light show, the band consistently dishes out heavy-weight beat-driven dance parties across the nation. Sets are kinetic, combining live improvisation with carefully crafted beats and melodic textures. Evolving from Oxford, Mississippi, Zoogma’s sound is an eclectic fusion of Electronica, Rock, Jazz, World and Hip-Hop. This blend of genres results in a musical experience that appeals to a range of audiences with a sound that is refreshingly original yet steeped in the dance music tradition. www.Zoogma.net
SOUNDUO is a musical collaboration between Miami-based producers and musicians Will Mills and Zach Morillo. It is a blend of bass heavy musical genres, sample-based electronic hip-hop, dubstep and traditional dub stylings. Acting as sidemen/engineers to numerous local acts and nationally-recognized artists has led Zach and Will to regional and national exposure as part of the local music scene. Their reggae and dub influences were soon augmented by Miami’s bass-heavy electronic music scene and audio/visual pioneers, leading them to the multi-sensory journey which has taken Miami by storm. www.Facebook.com/SOUNDUO

On Saturday, October 22nd, The Heavy Pets return home from their east coast tour to release their third studio album, Swim Out Past the Sun, at a celebratory record release party at The Stage in Miami’s Design District.
Returning to their acoustic roots on Swim Out Past the Sun, THP’s guitar duo set aside their electric axes for a more organic approach. Showcasing the intricate unplugged guitar interplay offered on the new album, guests at the record release party will be treated to a Stop Making Sense-style performance that begins with Jeff Lloyd and Mike Garulli on acoustic guitars and builds to the full electric band including keyboard player Jim Wuest, bassist Justin Carney and drummer Jamie Newitt. Skillfully blending rhythm and blues, jazz-funk and reggae fusion with rock and roll, THP are masters at creating an infectious dance party and October 22nd is sure to be one of their finest powerhouse live performances.
Famed American painter, Mark T. Smith, who contributed Swim Out Past the Sun’s album artwork, will be signing a series of limited-edition screen printed posters commissioned for the occasion and the band will be available to sign posters and CDs. Terry Newitt (drummer Jamie Newitt’s father) will be painting live during the performance, and Original MOONSHINE® Clear Corn Whiskey will provide complimentary cocktails for a portion of the evening.
Inspired by the efforts of Positive Legacy, the non-profit arm of Cloud 9 Adventures, THP will donate a portion of proceeds from Swim Out Past The Sun sales between its release and the band’s inaugural voyage upon Jam Cruise in support of Positive Legacy’s community outreach projects in Haiti.
The Heavy Pets (THP) are an American rock band whose contagious vibe blends rhythm and blues, jazz-funk and reggae fusion with rock and roll. Called “a living, breathing, force of nature†by Relix, THP are known for powerhouse live performances and infectious danceable songs with thought provoking lyrics. The group became an instant Sirius radio sensation in 2007 with the release of their double-disc debut album, Whale, driven by hit tracks “Operation of Flight†and “Sleep.†First embraced by the jam scene for their raw talent, their cross-over sound that is showcased on their self-titled album and was dubbed a “Top 10 Album of 2010†by The Huffington Post, propelled them into the periphery of mainstream music.
Returning to their acoustic roots on Swim Out Past the Sun (2011), THP’s guitar duo set aside their electric axes for a more organic approach. Featuring a three song sit-in by longtime Jerry Garcia collaborator David Grisman, the album presents a fresh perspective from the ever-evolving quintet. Swim Out Past the Sun was produced and recorded by multi-platinum, Grammy and Oscar Award-winner Scott Mathews and mastered by Grammy Award-winner Vlado Meller. Major festival darlings, THP have taken the stage at Bonnaroo, High Sierra, Gathering of the Vibes, moe.down, Langerado, Summercamp, All Good, Wakarusa, Bear Creek, Mountain Jam and their namesake PetZoo. www.TheHeavyPets.com

Aleloop Street Art Mobile Installation Art Basel 2011

Aleloop Mobile Art Installation – “Did You See Those MINIs?â€
A Multisensory Flash Mob During Art Basel Miami Beach
artbasel.aleloop.com
During Art Basel 2011, pop surrealist artist Aleloop will present a one-of-a-kind interactive Mobile Art Installation that will have people asking “Did You See Those MINIs?†From December 1st – 4th, a caravan of 10 MINI Coopers wrapped with Aleloop’s hip, happy & playful art will be travelling through Miami & Miami Beach in the heart of the Art Basel action, making scheduled stops at the most popular art fairs, parties, galleries and restaurants.
At each stop, 40 energetic performers will pop out of the colorful cars creating a multisensory Flash Mob around the Aleloop MINIs. Performers dressed in Aleloop designed tees will engage Art Basel enthusiasts with a multitude of mediums – music, juggling, singing, magic, hooping, dancing, live art and of course fun take-aways for the audience. The carnival-like atmosphere at each installation will engage all five senses, creating one of the most memorable and talked about Art Basel experiences of 2011. A film crew will be documenting the entire Aleloop experience for “The Making of a Spectacle, a Documentary,†a movie that will chronicle this non-traditional traveling installation.
The 10 MINI Coopers will feature thematically designed artwork with whimsical characters created by Aleloop with their own personalities and stories. Featured themes include: Fine Arts, Grunge, Video Game, DJ, MINI ME, Free Hand, Comics, Pattern, Driver and Nature.
Aleloop is also giving one lucky fan the opportunity to win their own MINI Cooper wrapped with the Aleloop artwork of their choice for a year. To enter the pre-contest, visit http://ArtBasel.Aleloop.com and follow them on Facebook for real time updates. A full schedule of destinations for the Aleloop MINI Cooper caravan will be available soon.
About Aleloop: Between 2002-2009 Aleloop (a.k.a. Alejandra Leibovich) served as Senior Art Director of Creative Services for three of Viacom’s most popular brands in Latin America: VH1, Nickelodeon and Logo TV. Aleloop has also designed for Cartoon Network, Nicktoons Network, 7UP, Dr. Pepper, XBOX, iTunes, Ironman, X-MEN, TNT, The Academy Awards and Playstation in addition to several consumer product clients and music video producers. Her specialty for television, commercials and music videos is blending animated characters and animated “worlds†together with live action actors and elements. Her work garnered widespread industry recognition including more than 20 “Promax†awards, which is the television motion graphics industry’s highest honor. In 2009 Viacom decided to move its operation from Miami to Argentina, and Aleloop decided to take this opportunity to remain in Miami and enter the world of fine arts.
Now, less than two years later, collectors across the U.S. and internationally, have snapped-up more than 11 of her original pieces. Aleloop’s originals and her giclee-originals have appeared at Comic Con San Diego, Optic Nerve at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Miami, G40 Art Summit, Art Whino, Art Link International, Pop Santa Fe, Lunar Boy Gallery, Multiversal and many many more. Demand for Aleloop’s original artwork has steadily climbed and “entry level†collectors now support a growing market for giclee-prints and giclee-originals, in addition to the limited but growing number of her original pieces. Aleloop lives and works in Coconut Grove, Florida and drives one of the most unique Mini Cooper S automobiles on the road anywhere in the world today.
Aleloop’s Art Basel Sponsors Include: Metro Wrapz, Art Whino and The Cheese Steak Gourmet

“Four Species†Exhibition Opening
October 18, 2011, 7 pm – 9 pm
Maor Gallery
3030 NE 2nd Ave.
Miami, FL 33137
www.maormiami.org
‘Four Species’ is a contemporary group show curated by Jon Feinstein (co-founder and Curatorial Director of the Humble Arts Foundation, NY) and Shana Beth Mason (Miami-based art consultant and critic) that will incorporate new works from four emerging artists in reference to Sukkot. Free and open to the public. The exhibition will feature two sculptural works, a live performance and a wall of the sukkah creatively re-imagined.
Beverages and free onsite parking available to attendees!
More about the exhibition: Four Species refers to the four varieties of fauna synonymous with the human spine (the palm branch ‘Lulav’), eye (myrtle, ‘Hadass’), mouth (willow, ‘Aravah’) and heart (citron fruit ‘Etrog’), held together to symbolize the unity of body, spirit, scripture and memory. The continuous cycles of life and death, the nature of impermanence and migration, and how the practice of making art as an intellectual and contemplative pursuit which may somehow stall or pause the inevitable movement of organic decay are all traced through seamless dialogue between the artists’ works.
Loriel Beltran, Catalina Jaramillo, Joe Segal and Shelter Serra’s work manifest the essence of the religious celebration towards a broader audience: a unique consideration within the Sukkah, itself and moving indoors to the gallery space. A repurposed wooden wall acts as part of the Sukkah’s physical structure, a resin cast of the actual Four Species, two highly finished aluminum-implanted wooden beams hung side by side, and a meditative performance will act as visual suggestions.

Eleven local artists have been selected to participate in “This Art is So Gay,†a visual art exhibition at the Miami Beach LGBT Visitor Center, sponsored by MetLife. The exhibition will kick off with an artists’ reception during Sleepless Night, November 5, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., with the artists in attendance and all art will be offered for sale with proceeds benefitting the not-for-profit MDGLCC Foundation for its LGBT scholarship program. The reception and exhibit are free and open to the public with the exhibition running through December 5 during Art Basel.

In addition to the visual art exhibition, the Sleepless Night kick-off reception will feature interactive “flash-mob†hurricane parties in celebration of “Captiva,†a new comedy that will be making its world premiere at the Adrienne Arsht Center’s Carnival Studio Theater. “Captiva,†from 2011 Carbonell Award recipient Christopher Demos-Brown, explores what happens when a family is stranded together on that western Florida island during a hurricane and they are forced to face each other with honesty and bottles of wine.
“We encourage the community to come out and support our local LGBT artists at this amazing exhibition’s unveiling reception,†said Steve Adkins, chairman of the board of the MDGLCC Foundation, Inc. “There won’t be a better way for people to kick off their Sleepless Night art experience.â€

The MDGLCC opened the country’s first-ever Chamber-sponsored LGBT Visitor Center last November. The Center is open to the public five days a week and has been the venue for special events for the MDGLCC, MetLife, Florida Grand Opera, Miami Gay & Lesbian Film Festival and Miami Beach Gay Pride, just to name a few. The LGBT Visitor Center, sponsored by MetLife, is located in Miami Beach’s Old City Hall at 1130 Washington Avenue, First Floor North, Miami Beach, in the heart of South Beach.

(Design District)
Miami, FL

Tim Reynolds is a Grammy-Nominated, multi-instrumentalist known as both a solo artist and as the lead guitarist for Dave Matthews Band. He recorded and toured as a sideman with the Dave Matthews Band from its inception until late 1998, rejoining them as a permanent member in June 2008. He often tours with Dave Matthews as an acoustic duo, in addition to performing as a member of Dave Matthews & Friends. He has performed on nearly all of DMB’s CDs.
With a musical career spanning more than thirty-five years, guitarist and sonic innovator Tim Reynolds is known for his masterful command of melody and timing and for his uncanny ability to improvise on any instrument he touches. Having explored most musical styles, from rock, jazz and blues to classical and reggae, Reynolds’ wide-ranging musical versatility is evident each time he picks up his acoustic or electric guitar. Technically brilliant, yet emotionally honest, Reynolds’ music is inspired and authentic.
It was in the mid 1980s that Reynolds founded his breakthrough electric power trio, TR3 (Tim Reynolds Trio), known for their fusion of funk, rock, and jazz. He toured with TR3 during the 1980s and 1990s, using a rotating cast of musicians. It was at this time he met and befriended Dave Matthews and their ongoing musical collaboration began. He eventually decided to disbanded TR3, relocate to Santa Fe, NM, and pursue his solo acoustic career. During the 1990s and 2000s, his musical progression continued throughout his many years on the road as a solo guitar wizard playing for packed houses and to crowds who quickly determined that he is one of the most talented and thoughtful musicians on the circuit today.
Reynolds discography is more than prolific. He continues to release a large number of acoustic and electric CDs, from the widely-acclaimed “Stream†to his recently-released acoustic “The Limbic System†and collaborates frequently with other musicians on a number of side projects.

Slated for the 2nd, 3rd & 4th of December 2011, the show has been part of the most important art week of the world for years. The week is lead by Art Basel Miami Beach which attracts over 200,000 visitors eager to discover new artists and purchase art.
Located at walking distance from the main show, PooL Art Fair offers the exhibitors a unique opportunity to be part of this important event. Each participating artist, or group of artists, will use the hotel’s guest rooms as an exhibition space, creating an intimate setting. The show will be comprised of artists, artists’ collectives and curators. Hence, the fair will serve as an invaluable resource for the artistic community and the general public.
PooL is the successor to the acclaimed New York Independent Art Fair (November 2000), a groundbreaking exhibition that attracted thousands of visitors from the US and abroad. 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.
Following the French tradition of independent salons, PooL pioneered the idea in the US; the fair is dedicated to artists that do not have representation in galleries at concurring art fairs.
The Deadline for the application to PooL Art Fair is October 20, 2011.

Zadok Gallery / Marshall Arisman opening
Friday, October 28th 6-9pm
Zadok Gallery
2534 North Miami Avenue
Miami FL 33127
You are invited to attend an opening for Marshall Arisman at the Zadok Gallery on October 28th, 2011 from 6pm until 9pm at the Zadok Gallery. Please save the date and join us for the official grand opening of his show entitled “The Ayahuasca Series”.
This is a group of paintings and large format drawings. Ayahuasca (ayawaska pronounced [aja’waska] in the Quechua language) is any of various psychoactive infusions or decoctions prepared from the Banisteriopsis spp. vine, usually mixed with the leaves of dimethyltryptamine-containing species of shrubs from the Psychotria genus. The brew, first described academically in the early 1950s by Harvard ethnobotanist Richard Evans Schultes, who found it employed for divinatory and healing purposes by the native peoples of the Amazonian Colombia, is known by a number of different names. A notable property of ayahuasca is that neither of the ingredients cause any significant psychedelic effects when imbibed alone; they must be consumed together in order to have the desired effect. How indigenous peoples discovered the psychedelic properties of the ayahuasca remains unknown.
Marshall Arisman is an internationally known painter, illustrator, teacher, and story-teller. Arisman’s work has strong emotional themes which often explore the connections between humankind and violence and the resulting spiritual impact, and may be seen in the permanent collections of the Brooklyn Museum, at the National Museum of American Art and the Smithsonian Institution, as well as in many private and corporate collections. Marshall Arisman work has been part of the larger cultural language for the past several decades, appearing in places such as the covers of Time magazine, book covers and feature films. Mr. Arisman was the first American invited to exhibit his artwork in mainland China. His series, “Sacred Monkeys,” appeared at the Guang Dong Museum of Art in April 1999. He is the subject of a full-length documentary film directed by Tony Silver titled “Facing the Audience: The Arts of Marshall Arisman.”
Collections include: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Brooklyn Museum, New-York Historical Society, Smithsonian American Art Museum, Telfair Museum of Art, Guang Dong Museum of Art; Guangzhou, China.

Afterwards, come dance the night away at Green Room’s weekly event Black Friday with resident DJ’s Linder Smash and Kaos for a night of new wave, dark house, and industrial music.

Graffiti Gone Global Presents â€Labrys Frisae†By Acclaimed Architect Marc Fornes During Art Basel Miami Beach 2011
Thursday, December 1: 6PM – 9PM – VIP Preview
Friday, December 2: 11AM – 8PM
Saturday, December 3: 11AM – 8PM
Sunday, December 4: 11AM- 4PM
The Rotunda
3252 NW 1st Avenue, suite 101
Midtown Miami
www.gggexhibit.com
Graffiti Gone Global (GGG), powered by Sushisamba, announces its fifth consecutive exhibition of urban contemporary art and design, running parallel to Art Basel Miami Beach. At the center of GGG 2011 is famed French architect, Marc Fornes, who will unveil ‘Labrys Frisae’ – a conceptual, non-linear structure reminiscent of three-dimensional graffiti. ‘Labrys Frisae’ will be the largest installation of Fornes’ oeuvre to date. In the months leading up to show, he will face the intricate task of bringing his work to life, assembling – by hand – more than 80 nodes, 12,000 unique parts and 100,000 connectors. Once completed, ‘Labrys Frisae’ will span 30 feet and rise 16 feet above the floor, utterly transforming Midtown’s glass Rotunda space.
“Fornes’ technique and overall vision for ‘Labrys Frisae’ embody the philosophy of GGG,†said Shimon Bokovza, founder and managing partner of SUSHISAMBA and GGG visionary. “His approach to architecture speaks to the ever-evolving nature of GGG and is reflective of our appreciation for, and cultivation of, progressive forms of art that question conventional standards.â€
Fornes will challenge his audience to understand his geometric morphology of surfaces and networks, reminding them that first appearances are not always what they seem. The design of “Labrys Frisae†will allow visitors to obtain a greater understanding of the installation through three entryways leading them ‘inside’ the structure. Moreover, the exhibiton space will permit viewers to experience Fornes’ work from multiple perspectives – from both the ground floor and the mezzanine level – while the visitor’s relationship with Fornes’ 3-D graffiti will shift according to their position in the Rotunda. Beyond the structure itself, Fornes will heighten and seduce the visitor’s visual and auditory senses with lighting and music, leaving them mesmerized by his ability to seamlessly transform mathematical cryptogram into a large-scale, art installation.
Since it’s inception in 2007, GGG has showcased an international ensemble of artists whose work transcends the boundaries of the street and gallery. In accord with the mission of GGG, Fornes has challenged traditional notions of urban contemporary design. From his Brooklyn-based studio, he identifies his work as subversive and embraces the grassroots and hands-on mantra of so many street artists who choose to express art in their immediate environment.
Fornes is inspired by his formal education at the School of Architecture in the United Kingdom and his practical experience as the project architect for Zaha Hadid Architects. In 2005, Fornes started his own label THEVERYMANYTM. Under this guise, he manufactures blueprints for his work with computational protocol – algorithms – which he then uses in the production of his designs. His trademark installations have been recognized internationally, by Museum of Modern Art in New York where he was invited to lecture, the Guggenheim in New York to show, and the Centre Pompidou in Parisand FRAC Centre in Orleans, to be part of France’s permanent collections.
GGG‘s mission is to celebrate and showcase the evolving art and culture of the street. Taking place annually during Art Basel Miami Beach, GGG is the only exhibit of its kind, showcasing the work of today’s most talented international graffiti and street artists. The project strives to break the barriers between the street and the gallery to bring the irrefutable influence of these creative energies on all aspects of design to light.

Sushisamba is a lifestyle group with a deep passion for art, food, music and entertainment.

Friday, October 21; Saturday, October 22 and Sunday, October 23, 2011, 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday evenings – Sunday Matinee at 2:00 p.m.

Who Could Have Predicted?
The Play that inspired Millions!
Who Could Have Predicted? that this original play would be the catalyst for the birth of the New Light Theatre at Gallery 101?
By popular demand, The New Light Foundation, Inc. and Gallery 101 are proud to present a brand new performance of “Who Could Have Predicted?” — a piece comprised of a series of shorts in honor of the 10th anniversary of 9/11 at their new venue – the New Light Theater at 3354 NE 33rd Street, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33308 on Friday, October 21 at 8 p.m., Saturday, October 22 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, October 23 at 2 p.m.
For reservations and advanced tickets please call Wendy at 954-829-0638; write to wendywhitelight@hotmail.com or visit New Light Theatre’s website at www.newlightgallery.org
Adam White, Gallery owner, Gallery 101 went to see “Who Could Have Predicted†in Miami at Wynwood’s GAB studio and decided to offer Wendy a permanent home in his Fort Lauderdale gallery surrounded by cafes, restaurants, boutiques and other galleries. “Wendy and New Light Theatre will be able to cast plays every month and have a solid home base from which to create. We are very excited to have her here; she is an immense talent that promises to get even bigger and better with this wonderful association†states Adam White, Gallery owner, Gallery 101. As a result of seeing this production, the New Light Theatre was born – incorporating the revolutionary concept of combining visual arts and theatre.
The story behind this historical project:
In the fall of last year, Krane, Inc. and New Light Foundation, Inc. decided that they wanted to honor the upcoming 10th anniversary of September 11th. However, the theatre companies did not want to show the over-exposed images of the towers crashing down all over again; they also did not want to hit audiences over the head with material they were already de-sensitized to.
Instead, the companies sent out a call to writers, asking them to submit shorts about the issues that arose post 9/11; in other words, the issues we grapple with today and have been grappling with for a decade. The writers were asked to not mention the Trade Towers, or September 11th; to not mention 9/11 or Ground Zero, or any of the other names that arose out of the space left behind.
The result was an influx of scripts from all over the United States, which were then judged by a panel of writers, directors, and actors. From these submissions, seven were selected. These are the shorts that comprise Who Could Have Predicted? Comedy and Dramedy that delves into the depths of Reality TV; the constant flow of electronic news-feeds; airport security; identity; immigration; and just plain sex. Who Could Have Predicted? had sell-out performances in Los Angeles, California and Miami, Florida – as a result of POPULAR DEMAND Who Could Have Predicted will be performed in Fort Lauderdale at the New Light Theatre at Gallery 101!
“What we found was really interesting. There was a lot of comedy submitted, which is fascinating — the results didn’t produce dramatic tomes of disaster, but just the opposite. I think that says something about the power of comedy to tackle serious subjects and twist our brains around in a way that makes us look at old ideas and situations in a new light,” says Vanessa Garcia, Founding Artistic Director of Krane, Inc.
“Who Could Have Predicted is an innovative leap into the present reflecting our post 9-11 world – encompassing a weave of plays from gifted national playwrights whose writings all transcend the current conflicts of our time resulting in an important yet comedic night of theater,†says Wendy White, Co-Founder of the New Light Foundation, Inc.
As for the companies themselves — Krane, Inc. and New Light Foundation, Inc. have produced performances all over the world from Amsterdam to Edinburgh; New York City to Miami. This is their first performance in Los Angeles.
In 2009, 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.
Krane, Inc. was named Best of the City 2010 by Miami Magazine, as the best up and coming theatre company in town. http://vanessagarcia.org/press/tethrical-chairs.php. Also in 2010, Vanessa 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.

Looking for a sane alternative to the madness on Lincoln Road? Come to Books & Books in Coral Gables to hear Lawrence Samuel discuss his new book “Supernatural America: A Cultural History” (Praeger). “Supernatural America” is the first book to examine the cultural history of the supernatural in the United States, documenting how the expansion of science and technology coincided with a rise in supernatural/paranormal beliefs. From the flourishing of “spiritism” in the 1920s to the early 21st century, when the paranormal is bigger than ever, this entertaining and educational book explains the irresistible allure of the supernatural in America. This book is much more than an authoritative and compelling look at the cultural history of the supernatural over the last century in America—it also explains why we want to believe.

Mad Hatter Arts Festival
Returns to Coconut Grove
Coconut Grove – Mad Hatter Arts Festival returns for its 7th season taking place Saturday and Sunday, October 29-30 from 10am to 5 pm at The Barnacle and along the sidewalks of Main Highway, from the Cloisters to Calamari. This juried event features artists of all types of media.
Chalk It Up! street painting makes its Miami debut. This art form dates to 16th century Italy where artists travelled from town to town, religious festival to religious festival, transforming streets into temporary art galleries. This truly ephemeral art form is experiencing a 21st century renaissance. Chalk It Up! will be held in the parking lot at Grand Avenue and Fuller Street across from the UPS Store. The inaugural theme is Through the Looking Glass.
Additionally, Watch Art Happen will be ongoing throughout the weekend. Artists are invited to participate in this new element of the Mad Hatter Arts Festival, joining fellow artists painting en plein air on the streets of the historic village of Coconut Grove. Designated areas will be located around the Grove.

Author Jane Bernard hosts fundraiser at Indomania Restaurant for Feeding South Florida
Wednesday, Oct. 19, 7:30 pm
Indomania Restaurant
131 26th Street (off Collins Ave.)
Miami Beach, FL 33140
$35 per person, excluding drinks, tax and gratuity
RSVPS are required to attend the event. To RSVP, contact Indomania at (305) 535-6332
Event Open to the Public; Bernard to Speak About How Everyone Benefits When We Feed the Hungry, as Explained in Her Book, Am I Really Hungry? 6th Sense Diet: Intuitive Eating
The public is invited to not only learn about how feeding the hungry can benefit everyone, but also to enjoy a delicious three-course dinner on Wednesday, Oct. 19 at Miami Beach’s Indomania restaurant. Jane Bernard, New York author of the book Am I Really Hungry? 6th Sense Diet: Intuitive Eating is partnering with the popular restaurant to host a cocktail reception/dinner benefiting Feeding South Florida™ (formerly Daily Bread Food Bank).
In Am I Really Hungry? Bernard provides a 21st century way to think about diet and eating: focusing on values and priorities, instead of calories and losing weight. One of the book’s chapters, The Lucky Ones, explains how to turn food and eating obsessionsinto a positive and productive part of life by tuning into food needs of others. She refers to how when we feed the hungry, everyone benefits. Bernard regularly speaks at benefits to raise awareness about the needs of the hungry.
Indomania restaurant proprietors Ineke and Pieter Both-Berends are co-hosting the event to raise awareness of local hunger, and specifically to help feed local hungry children. Chef Ineke, who cooks and eats intuitively, contributed two recipes to Am I Really Hungry? The menu for the event will consist of Indomania’s acclaimed Dutch-influenced Indonesian foods including a cup of Soto Ayam (featured in the book); rijsttafel, including 13 to 14 different dishes; and spekkoek, layer cake with a scoop of coconut ice cream.
Attendees will enjoy a short talk by Bernard about using the senses when eating, and intuitive eating. Jennifer Wescott, marketing manager of Feeding South Florida, will also speak briefly about how Feeding South Florida provides food for the more than 936,000 South Floridians who are food insecure.
Indomania will donate 75 percent of all food sales from the event to Feeding South Florida. Copies of Am I Really Hungry? will be on sale for $15.97 plus tax. For every book purchased, Bernard willgive $5 to Feeding South Florida.
For more information about Jane Bernard and Am I Really Hungry? 6th Sense Diet: Intuitive Eating, visit www.amireallyhungry.net. The book is available on www.amazon.com and www.barnesandnoble.com.

Feeding South Florida does this by providing food and other grocery products; and by educating and engaging our community to fight hunger and poverty.

Music in the Key of Love ~ Deva Premal and MIten with Manose 2011
10/15/11, 7:30pm
Gusman Center for the Performing Arts
174 E. Flagler
Miami, Florida
www.StopBreatheandSmile.org
Stop, Breathe and Smile is honored to present Deva Premal and Miten with Manose Live in Concert on Saturday, October 15, 2011 at the Gusman Center for the Performing Arts located at 174 E. Flagler Street. Miami, Florida. This event is open to the public and tickets are available for $25, $35, $45 ($10 additional day of show)
Deva Premal’s pure voice and the ancient mantras she sings are a potent combination that is calling to an ever-increasing number of people. Her soulful rendering of these timeless sounds strikes a powerful chord – whether it’s for a private audience with the Dalai Lama, motivational speaker Anthony Robbins, actress-singer Cher or in front of hundreds or thousands of adoring fans around the world.
Miten, who plays guitar and sings harmony, also performs his own songs of celebration. During their concerts, Deva Premal & Miten invite the audience to experience the performance without the customary applause. This creates a deep silence, a connection between performers and audience that invites stillness and introspection. Says Miten, “The true purpose of our music is to awaken a longing in the heart for that which is omnipresent: the experience of silence and meditation. It’s not about entertainment – it is simply our spiritual practice.”
Deva & Miten are accompanied by Nepalese flute maestro Manose. Born in Kathmandu, Nepal, Manose has performed extensively with them and is featured on their new CD release, Password.
