Art on Immigration, Family Separation, and the Power of Women

Miami-based Brazilian artist Jônatas Chimen highlights the role of women on immigration and family preservation in his latest exhibit 5 Madonnas in Exile, (or The Refugee Cathedral of the Ascending Bull).

As a first-generation immigrant and a descendant of Sephardic exiles who suffered forced-conversions, persecution, and expulsion during the Spanish Inquisition, Jônatas explains that much of his family’s legacy only survived a 500-year Diaspora due to the bravery of a few women:

“They made sure the family did not crumble while in exile, by being relentless spiritual, cultural, and business leaders. They were addressed by the title of Dona. But because they were so selfless and virtuous, I call them Madonnas.”

The artist’s own history of exile and religious conflict play an important role in his discourse. Elements such as a cathedral and bull are borrowed straight from this narrative.

“The ever-reliable bull is willing to provide necessary strength at a very low cost, but in times of euphoria, upheaval, and famine, it is often sacrificed in the bull-fighting arena. Similarly, immigrants are appreciated at times of bountifulness and peace, but in moments of crisis they are sometimes singled out and sacrificed, often not only rhetorically.”

Within this fabric cathedral installation, one is confronted by a spiraling maze also made of textiles. This further emphasizes the disorienting experience of being in exile and living in a situation of limbo, as it is currently happening to children sent to immigration detention centers.

At the end of this maze there is an altar, where several screens show a performance in which Jônatas drifts on a raft through water channels and the open ocean. Jônatas is wearing a suit and a bow-tie, signifying composure in the face of the unknown. Sojourning through the waters brings to mind that most asylum-seeking immigrants arrive to his home state of Florida via the ocean.

Deep within this fabric sanctuary, one is reminded of what his five Madonnas were clearly aware of; that alone we are nothing but threads, but together we can be as strong as the very fabric of society.

The exhibit counts with the important participation of assistant artist Rachael Kfare and scholar Reina Barreto, PhD.

Opening Reception: September 12th at The Art Gallery of Broward College South Campus, from 6 – 9:00 p.m.

Tony’s song, “No Te Confundas”, took the first place spot in the show “Salsa y Punto” for three weeks.

“I tell you people, you are going to hear a lot about Tony Succar… and you will hear from him with golden letters. This production has stunned and it is something to talk about”, said radio host Ricardo Sánchez.

A special performance by expert salsa dancers will accompany the band.

Eternal Bachelor Peter Fogel, 50’s, has MAJOR commitment issues and is stuck in “Manolescence!” He also senses his own mortality and after much soul searching decides to revisit the scene of all his romantic disasters.

And with that decision he brings you his auto-biographical tale of a comedian’s Quixote Quest to finally searching for the one woman who can transform his life — with his hysterical multi-media solo show, “Til Death Do Us Part… You First!” True Confessions about Marriage, Sex, & other things that end prematurely

It’s the holidays and Fogel is looking forward to a romantic evening with his girlfriend. Instead, she dumps him. Distraught and confused, he is magically visited by a Special Visitor who mentors him on how he continually screws up his own love life.

Fogel laments to the visitor:

“The longest relationship I’ve ever had is with T-Mobile!”

From the trials and tribulations of Marriage… to on-line dating… to “studying for his prostate exam…” Fogel mixes his signature wit along with riotous relatable characters and takes us on a whirlwind comedic journey of searching, finding… and eventually surrendering to his Soul Mate!”

To view a short promo video visit:

“Til Death Do Us Part… You First” spins a heartwarming hilarious yarn. So if you’re divorced, married… or ever b een single (and that’s everyone) and want to experience (again) the feeling of finding that Special Person to share your life with— then you’ll want to fasten your seat belt for 90 minutes of Non-Stop laughs!.

If you’ve laughed at “Men Are From Mars & Women are From Venus… ” and Defending The Caveman! you will LOVE Peter Fogel’s “Til Death Do Us Part… You First!”

Academy Award Nominee Chazz Palminteri (Bullets Over Broadway, The Usual Suspects, Bronx Tale) says…

“Fogels Sharp comedic writing and performance will make you look at your own relationships! A remarkably funny show with lots of heart!”

KPFK Radio

… A surprising and theatrical gem!”

The NY Post…

“The singles man, single man. Fogel tells such funny poignant stories about being single. One wants to go out and find him a suitable mate.”

No-hoartsdistrict.com

“Fogel entertains us with anecdotes and characters that hold particular importance in his story, skillfully bringing them to life with his obvious gift for mimicry!”

Medellin: A City for Public Life,
Lecture by Jorge Pérez Jaramillo (Universidad de Santo Tomás, Medellin, Colombia)

Seen as an urban failure, Medellin was once plagued by violence and terrorism, deep social fractures, economic crisis, and a breakdown of democracy and the rule of law. Yet today the city stands as an inspiring example of overcoming urban ills. Jorge Pérez Jaramillo, Medellin’s former director of urban planning, offers a critical analysis of Medellin’s profound urban changes from the 1980 crisis until today, detailing the collective processes that, through strategic planning, led to increased local democracy, equity, and human development.

Jorge PEREZ-JARAMILLO is the Dean of the Santo Tomás University’ Faculty of Architecture and the former Chief Planner of the city of Medellín (2012-15), and deputy chief planner of the Medellin Metropolitan Area (2004-2008). Thanks to his work, the city was recognized as the Most Innovative City 2012 WSJ Citi ULI, Special Mention Lee Kwan Yew Prize 2014 Singapore, 100 Resilient Cities Rockefeller Foundation, and other many awards for its innovative initiatives. In 2017, he was Visiting Fellow at the Cambridge University King´s College, in the UK. He is currently writing a book on Medellín’s urban evolution.

The Confidante Miami Beach, a playful oceanfront oasis in Miami’s mid-beach neighborhood, continues to be a hub for the latest artwork in Miami with its rotating solo art exhibit joined by contemporary street artist and muralist Skott Marsi. The rotating exhibit, which kicked off during the renowned Art Basel in November 2017 and reimagined every eight weeks with a new artist, is one of many curated, unique activities put on by The Confidante for guests and visitors to enjoy.

The rotating art exhibit has debuted a series of diverse, impressive Miami-based artists including Ivan Roque, Claude Charlier, Sam Dobrow and Nestor Arenas. On August 6, Skott will showcase his exhibit “Controlled Chaos” that encompasses abstract, realism paintings.

Raised in Long Island, New York, Skott Marsi is a street artist and muralist. He attended Queens University of Charlotte and studied Graphic Design and Digital Communications. When creating his pieces, Skott draws inspiration from Picasso, Jackson Pollock and Banksy. His work has appeared in galleries across the world – New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Amsterdam, London, Spain, Greece and Milan – and he attains international recognition as a top contemporary street artist. Skott’s installation at The Confidante fuses spray cans and paint to create bold, abstract-colored images to convey modern day pop culture. The artwork draws inspiration based off his Miami experiences. Moving to Miami in 2011, Art Basel opened up his eyes to the Wynwood Arts District and the endless opportunities for artists alike. The installation reflects his experiences throughout these last seven years of living and working in Miami, inspiration from the local community and the artists that he has connected and collaborated with.

The rotating art exhibit, located on the south side end of the hotel’s lobby, is complimentary to hotel guests and visitors.

Cost: 30-40-45

Aug 24 at 8 PM: Arts Garage presents the Tal Cohen Jazz Ensemble. “A special talent that needs to be heard… Check him out!” – DownBeat Jazz Magazine

Tal Cohen’s unique piano style owes its roots to the Jewish folk songs and classical music he played in his formative years growing up in Israel. After moving to Australia at the age of 16, Tal continued his music studies at the prestigious Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts, where he completed his Bachelor degree jazz performance.

Currently, Tal is attending the University of Miami in the United States, where he received a full scholarship and teaching assistantship to complete his Masters degree under the mentorship of Martin Bejerano. During his time in the states he has had the opportunity to play with drummer Jeff “Tain” Watts, and West Coast-based trumpeter John Daversa.

One of the highlights of Tal’s career occurred when he received a call from Grammy Award-winning trumpeter and composer Terence Blanchard to play a show with his Quintet at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles. Blanchard also invited him to perform with the “Terence Blanchard Quintet” at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. Most recently, Tal appeared at the Perth Jazz Festival alongside acclaimed New York saxophonist Greg Osby.

“Tal Cohen is one of the brightest stars playing the piano to come along in a long time and has the promise of being at the top of the curve changing our minds about music.”
–Terence Blanchard, DownBeat

Arts Garage is located at 94 NE 2nd Ave in Delray Beach. Tickets are $30-$40-$45 at artsgarage.org or 561-450-6357. BRING YOUR OWN … WHATEVER! The theater boasts cabaret-style table seating, where patrons can bring their own food and drinks, including alcohol. Music courtesy of KCC Productions.

Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) North Miami
770 NE 125th Street,
North Miami, Florida 33161
Website
Cost: $5

The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) North Miami will present the exhibition “Tracing the Red Thread,” by distinguished South Florida-based artist Mira Lehr, Sept. 6 – Nov. 4, 2018. The multimedia, museum-wide installation will reflect Lehr’s eco-feminist philosophy, the concept of mankind working with nature rather than dominating over it. Lehr uses the classical myth of Ariadne to explore the beauty, fragility and interconnectedness of the endangered aquatic ecosystem of the South Florida coast.

In Lehr’s mesmerizing installation, two and three-dimensional works evoke dense thickets of mangroves, the dangerous beauty of jellyfish and the ethereal luminosity of the coral reef. Lehr creates a mysterious world whose seductive beauty reminds us not only of the gifts that nature gives us, but of the importance of preserving them for the future generations.

Comprised of a variety of multimedia works, “Tracing the Red Thread” focuses on climate change and environmental issues as a major factor facing mankind today. The exhibition draws on the lessons Lehr learned six decades ago working with Buckminster Fuller on his “World Game Project.” As Lehr learned in her work with Fuller, the earth must be seen as a unified island within the oceans so one is made aware of the interconnectedness of all life.

Admission to MOCA is $5, but free for MOCA members and North Miami residents. An artist reception will take place on Thursday, Sept. 13, with an admission cost of $10 to the general public, free to MOCA members and North Miami residents.

Cost:

This year, Vizcaya Ball organizers pave the “silk road” for philanthropists and attendees to explore the Eastern influences of the historic estate during the upcoming 62nd Annual Vizcaya Ball.
To the naked eye, the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens design was decidedly Italian but woven into its tapestry are influences and inspiration that came from well beyond Europe and reached further east.
Examples can be found in the water channels in the Fountain Garden, reminiscent of Moghul garden design in Rajasthan; life-size sculpted peacocks in the Marine Garden symbolizing India; the O-bridge in the same garden inspired by similar bridges in China and Japan; and the Casba, the tiled, domed folly making playful reference to the Middle East. The decor in the Breakfast room and the Cathay guest bedroom in the Main House most aptly illustrates Chinoiserie, the style based on European interpretation of Chinese and Asian art and décor.
These influences will be celebrated as funds are raised for the continued preservation of the National Historic Landmark on Saturday, November 17, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. presented by Chopard and fashions by renowned designer Naeem Khan. Music is provided by the Danny Beck Band and fireworks display by Add Fire of Miami.

Cost: Free

Hi, my name is Matt Pack,

I’m the creator of the “Fast Pack Summer Slim Down Challenge” and I have something special to share with you.

If you are struggling with your weight, then this is for you!

You’re invited to a FREE nutrition seminar at the Primal Fit 360 studio.

During this 1 hour seminar, you will learn exactly what I did to help a small group of Primal Fit members lose over 100 pounds combined within 30 days doing simple exercises and focusing on diet.

The information I want to share with you is so powerful yet simple, I can’t wait to meet you in person and show you how to utilize this technique to achieve your personal fitness goal.

Our program sheds light on toxic food relationships and empowers people to take full control of those negative eating behaviors that are interrupting their well-being.

Traditional diet programs have failed individuals over and over again promising things they couldn’t provide. Especially for the person participating in the program, it can be extremely de-motivating when there is a significant amount of weight to lose with little to no progress.

Enough is enough and I chose to put all my energy into helping you and others who share this struggle.

My personal goal now is to take as much weight off of you as quickly as possible,
while empowering you to take massive action towards a healthier lifestyle.

The first step is education, that’s why I’m hosting this seminar for FREE and that’s why you should join me.

The second step is to take MASSIVE ACTION with the right people and support.

As I introduce you to a simple yet healthy technique to battle your weight, I will challenge you to implement what you learn during the 30 days “Fast Pack Summer Slim Down Challenge”.

Are you ready to learn how to improve your health?

Are you ready to take massive action and accomplish having the body you always wanted?

Are you ready to look in the mirror again and just be happy, less concerned and more proud of your body?
