“Other forms of philanthropy feed the body. The arts feed the soul.” My Miami stor y star ted before I ever came to Miami, with my mother impressing the impor tance of the ar ts on my brother and me. Ar t is the expression of our time. It tells us, in aesthetic ways, who we are, where we’ve been and where we’re going. Other forms of philanthropy feed the body and take care of physical needs. The ar ts feed the soul and nur ture the creative par t of our intelligence. This is why I believe it’s impor tant that people like you and me not only give, but become catalysts for others to give. That way, our culturally vibrant Miami reflects ever yone who lives here.

– Jorge M. Pérez

editor’s letter

n the magazine business, this page — the Editor’s Letter — is always the last one produced. It helps to have all the other finished pages on hand so the editor can write a balcony-view roadmap of what’s inside the issue. Sometimes, seeing all the individual pages and stories come together into a collective whole reveals themes and threads that we may not have planned. For this special Art Basel issue of INDULGE — our biggest and most widely read of the year — we made it a point to find an artistic angle in every feature, from photographing the director of an Everglades arts residency standing in the swamp (Queen of the Glades, p. 78) to seeking out the best galleries in Mexico City for one of our two travel stories (Escape, p. 130). As I dug into the editing process, one of those impromptu themes began to emerge through all of the art tales. Everywhere you turn in these pages, you’ll find women who are making an imprint on the art world and on Miami. Start with our featured Contributors (p. 34), and you’ll begin to see a Evan S. Benn trend take shape. These six women include some who are making their Editor in Chief INDULGE debuts and others, like Siobhan Morrissey, who are returning in spectacular fashion. Siobhan — a lawyer, art expert and journalist — delivered this issue’s cover story on Jorge Pérez (p. 140), a revealing look at The Related Group CEO’s personal collecting habits and his vision for PAMM’s next chapter. We also point you toward five artists poised to be the Next Big Thing (p. 158), four of whom are women. Our other main feature, The Future is Female (p. 150), takes you inside the minds, calendars and galleries of four Miami women who are defining our arts scene. Erin Michelle Newberg — herself an arts-world powerhouse — penned that piece. She also connected me with Pauldine France (Broker, p. 94) and Locust Projects’ Lorie Mertes (My 305 Style, p. 52), who became integral parts of this issue. The proud Miami women we highlight go beyond painters like Liv Dockerty (Artist, p. 86) and museum directors like ICA Miami’s Ellen Salpeter (Rainmaker, p. 71). It’s also chefs like Kaytlin Dangaran of Verde at PAMM (Dish, p. 101), writers like Danie Gómez-Ortigoza (Beauty, p. 50) and independent business owners like Diana Gonzalez of Wynwood Shop (Launching Now, p. 42). Individually, each of their stories resonate because they’re all fascinating, compelling and inspiring. But collectively, they paint a picture of Miami at this moment and at its very best. From the INDULGE family to yours, here’s wishing you an enriching Art Week, happy holidays and a joyous new year.

5 THINGS I LEARNED IN THIS ISSUE 1. Sometimes, even Jorge Pérez gets outbid on art (p. 140).

2. It’s less stressful to design custom-made guitars than to be a police officer (p. 68).

from the publisher

elcome to our annual Art Basel issue! We are so proud of this edition — a colorful palette of stories about the people and places celebrating this renowned international art event. The Guide (p. 165) aims to complement your Basel experience. From the seven fabulous Not to Miss recommendations to the seven equally exciting Free options, plus dozens of other Art Week tips, we give you the inside scoop on the best of Basel. Art stirs passion for serious collectors and everyday enthusiasts alike. After learning about Dennis and Debra Scholl’s curatorial passion (p. 74), culminating in purchasing, on average, an art piece every seven days; or Raúl and Mily De Molina’s pre-Basel party, where they describe the guests as “c’s”: critics, collectors, celebrities, colleagues (and friends), I am inspired by their dedication to, and love of, art (p. 84). My walls are adorned with art as well, celebrating French, Cuban, Argentinian and Bulgarian artists. Each piece awakens a joyful memory, like when I acquired my first serigraph at age 17. Or when I vacationed in Spain, where I fell in love with an engraving by Valentín Kovatchev. Or when I took a trip to Cuba with my younger brother, where we kept outbidding each other on a beautiful piece, to the surprise and amazement of the artist. In the end, while I took the piece home, all three of us had won. Yes, my walls narrate the story Lesley DeCanio of my life, but while my modest collection speaks to me, the real value of art is in the unexpected moments of inspiration we all feel when we discover a piece that moves us. And isn’t that so true during this singular week in December? We love Art Basel and Miami Art Week for the exposure to new artists and introduction to the gallerists and visionaries who support them. We become part of Art Basel when we engage and learn through the conversations, whether organized or organic, that we have with fellow art patrons and friends. With so many must-see recommendations throughout this issue, we want to ensure you are well nourished. Savor our selections in Dish (p. 101), because who doesn’t love pizza, especially R House’s unique Art Week version? Chef-owner Rocco Carulli designs his pizza art (literally) with vividly colorful sauces — gorgeous and tasty! Even if purchasing a Picasso isn’t on your to-do list, Picasso’s Prosciutto and Melon Salad at LaMuse Café in the Epic Hotel’s Avant Art Gallery should be. This masterpiece deserves its own photo gallery — or at least a social media post before the first bite. And because we have so much to celebrate, let’s toast with Taittinger Nocturne Champagne — in a white wine glass. (Who knew we’d been doing it wrong with flutes all this time?) In Pour (p. 108), contributor Amanda Mesa and contributing design director John Michael Coto’s breakdown of top bottles, proper glassware, food pairings, label decoding and retail sources is worthy of being an infographic art print. From sublime sipping to simple pleasures, this issue of INDULGE also reminds us to slow down and enjoy some sparkly holiday magic. So round up the kids, friends or significant other and enjoy a light-sweater evening marveling at the dazzling lights at one of three pictureperfect recommendations in Launching Now (p. 42). After the New Year, we’ve still got you covered. Add tickets to the Pegasus World Cup Invitational (Culture, p. 46) — January 27 at Gulfstream Park — to your holiday wish list. The second installment of the richest thoroughbred horse race on Earth will be an unforgettable way to kick off 2018. Remember: Not having enough wall space is no excuse to miss everything arts-related going on in the Magic City this time of year. You can bet I will be eyeing the new collection designed by Jeff Koons for Louis Vuitton — specifically, the “Monet” or “Gauguin” Neverfull handbags (Indulgence, p. 194). And what might be inside that bag? My INDULGE Art Basel issue, of course. Enjoy the season!

A veteran arts journalist and communications professional, Nicole Martinez is the managing editor of Orangenius, a New York-based startup creating an online platform for the creative economy. She oversees the editorial operations of Orangenius’ digital magazines, Artrepreneur and Art Law Journal. A retired dancer, Martinez contributes regularly to INDULGE, where in this issue she profiled ICA Miami's director, Ellen Salpeter (p. 71), and wrote about the Little River neighborhood (p. 114).

SIOBHAN MORRISSEY

A writer with a law degree, Siobhan Morrissey wrote about the art collection of Jorge Pérez and its impact on his namesake, Pérez Art Museum Miami (p. 140). Morrissey worked as a reporter while studying law at the University of Miami. She served as a prosecutor in Miami before returning to journalism in 2000. She writes for national publications, and her reporting has led to the rescue of a man trapped beneath an earthquakeflattened building in Haiti and to justice for three men falsely accused of rape. Morrissey, who is certified by the Appraisers Association of America, has been appraising art for nearly a decade for private and public collectors. In 2012 she founded Morrissey Fine Art.

NINA LINCOFF

Lifestyle and business writer Nina Lincoff profiled art collector Dennis Scholl for this issue (p. 74), and it turns out to have been a fortuitous match. Scholl recently gave the commencement address for the University of Miami’s School of Law, of which he is a graduate, and he invited six opera singers to “interrupt” his speech with song. Originally from California, Lincoff is in her first year at UM’s law school as a Miami Scholar, after working as a newspaper reporter. The advice Scholl had for the graduates? “Remember, leave room for the happy surprises.”

ERIN MICHELLE NEWBERG

Born and raised in Miami, Erin Michelle Newberg currently lives between Miami Beach and Cancún. Her globetrotting residencies and travels, which she regularly documents on mserinsita.com, have earned her recognition as a luxury lifestyle expert. She contributes to numerous Miami-based and international magazines, and she currently serves on the boards of several nonprofit organizations. Having previously written about Bloody Marys for INDULGE, she pivoted for the Art Basel issue with a feature story on Miami women who are influencing the art world (p. 150).

CARINA MASK

South Florida-based photographer and writer Carina Mask shot portrait images of several art-related individuals for her INDULGE debut. She said she felt a special connection to the work of Cuban-born visual artist Claudio Castillo (p. 163), one of our Next Big Things. “He invited me into his home and allowed me to photograph him, his workspace and his art,” she said. “Claudio’s work truly has a life of its own and is ever-evolving. Every piece has its own heartbeat."

CHRISTINA MENDENHALL

A Florida native, Christina Mendenhall is a photographer who regularly contributes to Miami Herald publications as well as national titles. This was her first time shooting for INDULGE’s Art Basel issue, where her portrait work included Deborah Mitchell, director of an Everglades-based art residency (p. 78). “I really loved photographing Deborah in Everglades National Park,” Mendenhall said. “It was an amazing collaboration and a true pleasure to photograph her in her element. She literally immersed herself in the environment. You could tell she felt most at peace out in nature.”

Diana Gonzalez had a simple idea for her new Wynwood Shop: maintain the eclectic, artistic intention of Miami’s original arts district. She did it by cramming together the works of 30 different artists, a few food trucks, a yoga area and a terrace. “We are just trying to collect as many artists into one space as possible so that they can make what they love,” Gonzalez said. The artists will build specifically for you, like jewelry to match an outfit and phone cases carved from wood as you wait.

The second annual South Beach Jazz Festival is creating a social statement in addition to brilliant music. Each of its shows will feature at least one performer with special needs, with the hope of demonstrating that disabilities don’t keep people from doing amazing things. “The idea is to create an interactive event with the audience,” said festival president David New, who is blind, “and maybe give a little understanding of people with disabilities along the way.” Headliner Branford Marsalis kicks things off on January 5 at the Colony Theater, and performances continue at various venues through January 7. southbeachjazzfest.com.

BLACK BOOK

As style director of AD (formerly Architectural Digest), Jane Keltner de Valle has carte blanche to explore every nook and cranny of some of the world’s most sensational homes. “I’ve always been curious about how people live with style and how it translates into their homes,” she said. “And there’s been a seismic shift culturally: People are more interested in lifestyle than ever before, so it’s an opportune time for us to help open up the conversation. Fashion, architecture, home, art… it’s all fluid today, and these disciplines merge in a spectacular way during Art Basel and Design Miami.” At work, Keltner de Valle’s responsibilities include producing, writing and editing home stories, as well as overseeing AD’s Discoveries section, which looks at all things style and design. Decorating your home, she said, is similar to a beauty routine: “It pays to invest in pure, quality products for both. Also, never underestimate the element of surprise.” Here, Keltner de Valle shares eight beauty products that she would buy for their design alone.

Richard Sell’s PureSalem Guitars are custom-designed in Miami before reaching the hands of musical artists worldwide.

t age 15, Richard Sell bought his first guitar at Ed’s Guitars. Located in a nondescript shopping center off of Bird Road, Ed’s was known for years as the place in Miami to buy a Fender, Gibson or cheap starter guitar from Japan. Sell taught himself how to play. He never joined a band or tried to find fame for the 12 lo-fi psych-rock albums he recorded. Instead, he spent 21 years protecting his fellow citizens as a Miami-Dade police officer, retiring to focus full-time on his custom guitars and accessories business. In October, four years after founding PureSalem Guitars and running the online shop from his home, Sell opened a brick-andmortar showroom in Miami. It’s located in the exact same spot where he bought his first guitar, at Ed’s, all those years ago.

INDULGE | DECEMBER 2017 / JANUARY 2018 | miamiindulge.com

BUILDING A LEGACY “Every time I send off one of my guitars overseas, I think, ‘OK, you’re going to France.’ How cool is that?” Sell said. “Like those cheap Japanese guitars, my guitars will be around long after I’m gone. It’s cool to think I’ll leave a legacy.” The Levitation, a paddle-shaped guitar that’s a riff on the old Vox models used by Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones, is the first PureSalem design that Sell put on the market. Through word of mouth and social media, he’s expanded his reach and now counts among his loyal customers musicians from ZZ Top, The Flaming Lips and The Dandy Warhols, and guitarists for Lady Gaga, Toni Braxton, The Backstreet Boys and more. The new PureSalem shop also sells all kinds of straps, pedals and other guitar accessories; a record player, vinyl collection and cushy couches encourage visitors to stay and chill. FOR LEFTIES, TOO Besides killer designs and high craftsmanship, PureSalem’s guitars are unique in that every model is available for left-handed players. A lefty himself, Sell had grown weary of having to play guitars meant for right-handed musicians or having to pay to have them retooled. “When I design my guitars, I like to mix and match pieces from the past and the future, and do different stylings and the carvings on the headstocks,” Sell said. “It’s like putting a puzzle together. It all goes back to me being a lefty and what, as a lefty, I could never get.” PureSalem is Sell’s testament to pursuing happiness and doing what you love. After the death of his mentor in the police force, Sell realized that the time to make a change was upon him. He traded in his badge for the courage to follow his dream. “My mental health is in a good place, whereas before it wasn’t,” he said. “I went from dealing with a heavy, negative vibe every day. Now I’m working with creative people, artistic people, people who are inspired to be doing whatever it is they’re doing. This changed my life. This saved me.” WORDS BY ASHLEY BROZIC / PHOTOGRAPHY BY FELIPE CUEVAS

PureSalem Guitars, 4045 Southwest 96th Avenue, Miami; puresalemguitars.com.

‘Now I’m working with creative people, artistic people,’ Sell said. ‘This changed my life.’

Richard Sell retired from the Miami-Dade police force to dive full-time into his passion: designing custom-made guitars. His new showroom, PureSalem Guitars, occupies the same space off Bird Road where he bought his first guitar as a teenager at Ed’s Guitars. PureSalem also stocks an array of gear and guitar accessories.

{ RAINMAKER }

Ellen Salpeter The Director of Miamiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Institute of Contemporary Art on building communities, making discoveries and breaking glass.

the movers Ellen Salpeter wears a Givenchy dress and Go Big or Go Home jewelry with her motorcycle in front of Dr. Pepper by local artist Mark Handforth at the new sculpture garden at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami.

VITALS 57. Director of the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami. Ellen Salpeter was born in New York to entrepreneur parents: Her father specialized in turning around dying businesses, and her mother owned a boutique. Exposed to the visual arts from a young age — Salpeter fondly remembers trips to MoMA — she pursued a work-study position at the Smithsonian while studying international management at Georgetown University. Her mother’s boutique happened to be on Miracle Mile, and Salpeter lived in South Florida for a year before moving to Paris and working with an attorney who represented the likes of Pierre Cardin and Serge Gainsbourg. In the late 1980s, she left traditional legal work and returned to her roots in the arts, moving back to New York to work for a commercial gallery. Since then, Salpeter has forged a career leading museums and cultural nonprofits, promoting the arts’ unmistakable role in civil society. In 2015, to lead ICA, she made Miami her home once again. Salpeter lives in Brickell with her adopted 12-year-old daughter, Hikma, while her 22-year-old son, Odediah, visits on breaks from Lehigh College. CLAIM TO FAME Helming the newly relocated ICA Miami, a cultural anchor in the Design District that boasts more than 30,000 square feet of exhibition space and an outdoor sculpture garden. FIRST PAYING JOB “I worked as a chambermaid once. That’s the person who cleans up the beds at a hotel. We were 16, 17. It was summer employment.” TAKING THE GIG “I like to consider myself a builder and someone who takes something to the next level. And the opportunity to get in early at the ICA was thrilling. Being able to work with such an extraordinary board, which we’ve expanded since I’ve been here, as well as Alex Gartenfeld, who is a curator on the rise, was very enticing.” NO COMPARISON “I don’t do the ‘New York or Miami?’ thing. New York offers a 24/7 hustle kind of vibe, while Miami allows you the respite and space and time to actually get engaged with things that matter.” SALT LIFE “I finally went out this past July 4th on my first boat ride in Miami. We spent the day going up the Miami River, discovering the Miami Marine Stadium and visiting Stiltsville. I think those bits of Miami that are off the beaten path are what make the city unique.”

INDULGE | DECEMBER 2017 / JANUARY 2018 | miamiindulge.com

OPEN-DOOR POLICY “My career has been institutional, but it’s also been about community building. We’re very committed to free admission and access for everyone, and using this building as a platform for the arts that’s built into a community.” CULTURAL AWAKENING “Now is the moment when if you come to Miami, you don’t have to recreate. You don’t have to go to the beach necessarily. You could spend five days here seeing art and mixing it up with shopping and outdoor activities. We are competitive now on a level with other important arts cities. And thanks to the Knight Foundation, more and more artists themselves, the cultural producers, are coming here.” CRITICAL THINKING “One of the things that makes a cultural capital vibrant is a very robust university system. Our thought was, as a small institution, how can we dip our toe in that water? So we founded the Art + Research Center in tandem with FIU, which will offer critical theory seminars in the contemporary arts. FIU students occupy half the slots, but the program is open to anyone with an interest.” GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT “My children are part of my world in a very significant way, but my greatest professional accomplishment is being a generous person. And I don’t mean handing out money. I mean having a generosity of spirit and paying it forward, helming organizations and setting them free. Making an impact and bringing people together.” GREATEST EXTRAVAGANCE “Traveling via motorcycle. My last trip was riding 1,000 miles through the Berkshires and the Catskills. A number of years before that, I rode west on Route 6 through Pennsylvania and New York all the way to Cook Forest, which is one of the oldest forests in the country.” WHAT PEOPLE DON’T KNOW “I love the sound of breaking glass. I think it’s symphonic. I don’t serve stemware in my house — I always have an urge to toss it.” MOTTO “I have a photograph that effectively says, ‘Some things will be OK, but not everything will.’ It’s really what I believe in life. Focus on the priorities. Get over the things that don’t matter as much. Learn from them instead.” WORDS BY NICOLE MARTINEZ / PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICK GARCIA

Dennis Scholl

An avid collector and benefactor with eclectic talents, he’s entering Art Week as the new boss of ArtCenter/South Florida.

ou’d be hard-pressed to find anyone in Miami with a résumé quite like Dennis Scholl’s: accountant, attorney, art collector, venture capitalist, documentary filmmaker, nonprofit arts executive. And, oh yeah, don’t forget winemaker and mezcal entrepreneur. Scholl has led an illustrious, if nonlinear, path over his lifetime. Many in Miami know him as the former Vice President for Arts at the Knight Foundation, where he helped expand Knight’s national arts philanthropy, overseeing nearly $200 million in grants between 2009 and 2015. NEW PERSPECTIVES Many more know him and his wife, Debra, as art collectors with a curatorial passion. Or rather, the flexibility to open their doors each year and have a different expert reconfigure and rehang the art in their Miami Beach abode. “It’s the thing we’re known for in the art world,” Dennis Scholl said, “this willingness to be involved in a curatorial project and give up complete control.” For Scholl, getting together over dinner with friends from around the world is the thing he most looks forward to when Art Basel rolls around. That, and the art. As collectors, the Scholls have purchased approximately 2,000 pieces over the past four decades. “If you do the math, we’ve bought a piece of art every seven days,” Scholl said.

‘We’ve bought a piece of art every seven days [for almost �� years].’ ARTCENTER ON A MISSION Today, Scholl is a few months into his latest venture as President and CEO of ArtCenter/South Florida. With an $88-million endowment thanks to the 2014 sale of one of its Lincoln Road buildings, ArtCenter is poised to expand its mission as a premier arts patron. “We’re going to make sure artists get the opportunity to interact with the rest of the art world by bringing significant artists here, not just during Art Basel,” Scholl said. In addition, he said, ArtCenter intends to fund artists’ travel and assist with residencies, as well as making direct grants to artists. The organization also will continue to provide artists with safe, productive studio spaces, something it’s been doing since the 1980s. “We have the capital now to do it all,” Scholl said. “We’re going to take that capital and put it to work for this community.” WORDS BY NINA LINCOFF / PHOTOGRAPHY BY CHRISTINA MENDENHALL

{QUEEN OF THE GLADES}

Deborah Mitchell

She’s an artist who encourages others to find inspiration in the River of Grass.

n a well-worn Hollywood cliché, the camera pans across a wall in a police precinct that’s been plastered with surveillance photographs, maps and news clippings, all linked together with string. A detective studies it, searching for clues, looking both obsessed and brilliant. It’s pretty much what you see when you walk into Deborah Mitchell’s home office. Half-crinkled sheets of paper — hung with scotch tape and pieced together with twine — flutter as she walks past. There’s a Florida map identifying flood zones. A photograph outlines a trail blazed by pioneer soldiers. Many of the images contain a signature of Mitchell’s artwork: digitally added birds, butterflies and bodega saints, melding the natural and manmade. ARTIST AND EDUCATOR Mitchell explains the collage in pieces, and what seemed like chaos suddenly has structure. It will be a field guide, a visual history of the ways we’ve depleted and preserved the Everglades. “How else would I get all of this in a little room in a way that I could understand it?” Mitchell has spent decades looking for inspiration in the Glades. For the past five years she’s been the Executive Director of Artists in Residence in Everglades, or AIRIE (airie.org), a nonprofit that gives artists a rustic cabin for a month, allowing them to create with nature. Her fascination with untamed Florida began when Mitchell was 6, after moving from Toronto. She chased catfish that crawled over Pompano Beach low-tide mud, and she sprawled in the back of her parents’ car to watch birds overhead. “It’s easy to see how an area is changing by the birds,” she said. “They are harbingers.”

‘When you’re out in the Everglades, you look inward.’ FINDING ANSWERS Already an accomplished artist, Mitchell spent a month a decade ago as a Big Cypress National Preserve fellow. “When you’re out there in the Everglades, you look inward and question things in your life that aren’t true to your soul.” At AIRIE, she helps others answer those questions. Ten artists a year — writers, painters, dancers, musicians and more — settle into AIRIE’s cabin at Everglades National Park to work on projects about the swamp. This year, with the help of a Knight Arts Challenge grant, the program opened its Nest Gallery within the park’s Coe Visitors Center. Drenched in natural light, it’s a comfortable place to display the work of AIRIE’s resident artists and to host educational workshops. Mitchell said the goal is to motivate others to explore the Glades — majesty, mystery and all. “This is important to do even if you’re not an artist,” she said. “The Everglades is a chance to stop and reset.” WORDS BY ERIC BARTON / PHOTOGRAPHY BY CHRISTINA MENDENHALL

Donae Burston

Find your way to the right party, and he might very well be there to hand you a glass of Jay-Z’s finest.

opping bottles with celebrities, socialites and royals is part of Donae Burston’s job. He travels the world as Champagne Armand de Brignac’s Sales and Marketing Director for the U.S. Southeast, Latin America and the Caribbean, hosting lavish parties and relishing in haute cuisine. Not bad for a bookworm with degrees in mathematics and industrial engineering. Originally from Baltimore, Burston started his career as an IT consultant for PricewaterhouseCoopers. After the recession hit, he made his way to Miami and into the world of luxury beverages. Burston, who was Moët Hennessy USA’s regional marketing director for Dom Pérignon and Moët & Chandon, said he liked what he saw in Armand de Brignac’s flourishing ultra-luxe team. “We are the new kid on the block, and we love that,” he said. OLD WORLD, NEW WINE The Cattier Family had been producing wine for 200 years when it decided to fashion a new Champagne for the 21st century. The 2006 debut of Armand de Brignac was an innovative break in convention (hello, metalized bottles). “We’re a small house, so we don’t have the production or financial pressures like others,” Burston said. Plus, it probably doesn’t hurt that Shawn Carter — aka Jay-Z — bought the company in 2014. And now, as some of the world’s wealthiest art collectors and purveyors of fine things descend on Miami for Art Basel, Burston is ready to welcome them with a glass of very special bubbly. It’s probably safe to assume some bottles of Armand de Brignac were opened this summer when Burston and actress Felisha Terrell celebrated the birth of their son, Noah. “Champagne is the true representation of a luxurious lifestyle,” he said. “It’s meant to be fun, celebrated and consumed.” INTERNATIONAL TOUR Last year was the first time Armand de Brignac was part of Art Basel, hosting an intimate dinner at Casa Tua, which was held right after Burston’s favorite Basel event: Vernissage. This year, the ne plus ultra of Champagnes is hosting several exclusive VIP receptions. Looking to 2018, Burston will be stepping up the brand’s presence at major events — think Grammys, Oscars, Monaco Grand Prix and Cannes Film Festival. He’s also opening new South American markets for Armand de Brignac, starting with Panama and Colombia. “We are the new darling of the Champagne world, a brand that people really didn’t see coming,” he said. “It’s been amazing to be a part of it.” WORDS BY CHRISTIE GALEANO-DEMOTT / PHOTOGRAPHY BY FELIPE CUEVAS

Victoria Rogers

The Knight Foundation’s VP for Arts is committed to making art available to everyone.

or Victoria Rogers, art is a bridge. “It’s how we connect to each other and our communities, and how we break down barriers,” she said. As Vice President for Arts of the Knight Foundation, Rogers oversees the Knight Arts Challenge, which this year will donate $8 million to fund projects in Miami, St. Paul, Detroit and Akron. “We look for innovative ideas that engage people in new and different ways; ideas that are transformative and create empathy,” she said. ARTISTIC UPBRINGING Rogers grew up in Kentucky, part of a family that both created and valued art. Her father was a classical musician, and her mother loved to sing. Two aunts were artists; one painted murals, the other, portraits. “I had access to dance and art classes, we drew, and we read voraciously,” she said. “In summer, my sister and I and four cousins performed plays that my aunt wrote. I believe the ability to think creatively is tied to access to the arts.” Before joining the Knight Foundation, Rogers was New World Symphony’s executive vice president. Part of the Knight Foundation’s success in enriching the arts scene in Miami and other cities, she said, is because it champions smaller projects. “Every genre has been given more of a voice by the Knight Foundation. It allows more voices to be heard that reflect the ethnicity of our city.”

‘The ability to think creatively is tied to access to the arts.’

A CHANCE TO REFLECT She loves the idea of finding art in surprising places — “It starts a conversation,” she said — as well as in expected places, like Art Basel Miami Beach. She pointed to the rise in satellite shows during Art Week as an example of an increasing appreciation for all kinds of artists: established and emerging, international and local. “Basel brings us some of the best contemporary artists,” she said, “but it also gives local artists an opportunity to have their work seen.” Most importantly, art helps us better understand each other and gives us an opportunity to reflect upon ourselves. Of course, art also encourages more than introspection and critical thinking. “At other times, it gives us pure joy,” Rogers said. “It’s a way to express our humanity. I marvel at the capacity people have to create.” WORDS BY JANA SOELDNER-DANGER / PHOTOGRAPHY BY ANDREW INNERARITY

{COLLECTORS}

Raúl & Mily De Molina Miami’s most affable power couple prepares to open their new art-filled home for their annual Basel soirée.

efore co-starring in Univision’s smash-hit newsentertainment show El Gordo y La Flaca opposite Lili Estefan, Raúl De Molina had years under his belt as a professional photographer. He covered the drug-ridden ’80s Miami Vice era and became a well-known paparazzo. It should come as no surprise, then, that photography is at the heart of Raúl and Mily De Molina’s significant art collection. The couple recently packed up their beloved, longtime home in Key Biscayne for a 37th-floor condominium at Brickell City Centre, which they share with their teenage daughter, Mia. What they may have given up in quietude, they made up for in sweeping views and a dynamic city life. “I can find everything I may want or need within walking distance,” Raúl De Molina said, “a box of chocolates, a movie, dinner.” ART ABOUNDS Of course, they took their contemporary art with them, and it immediately surrounds you as you enter their new home. Beijing artist Wang Qingsong, a De Molina favorite, shares wall space with one of Valérie Belin’s flower portraits; next to a Clint Eastwood portrait by Martin Schoeller are a striking piece by South African Pieter Hugo — part of his The Hyena & Other Men

series — and a monumental Havana cityscape by Miami-based Gustavo Acosta. For the first time in 16 years, the De Molinas’ unofficial Art Basel kickoff party, like them, will have a new home. The invitation-only affair, always hosted in their abode the Monday before Basel, brings an A-list crowd that the couple describes as mostly “c”s: critics, collectors, celebrities, colleagues — and friends. LIFE OF THE PARTY The tradition began in 2002 as a get-together to celebrate Mexicobased Cuban art dealer Nina Menocal, a friend of the De Molinas who was exhibiting at the first Art Basel. As the party has grown into one of the most buzzed-about events of the year, so has the planning. Save-the-dates went out months ago, followed by invitations. Mena Catering, which has fed the De Molinas’ guests since the first year, locked in a luxurious menu. After the party, Raúl De Molina likely will be playing The Girl from Ipanema while reflecting on his family and friends and looking forward to El Gordo y La Flaca’s 20th anniversary in September. Of course, the new year also will bring more art, food and wine, and far-flung adventures. Said De Molina: “Traveling and eating are my relaxations.” WORDS BY MARCIA MORGADO / PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY OF RAÚL DE MOLINA

hile her Lourdes Academy classmates were scooping ice cream as summer jobs, Liv Dockerty was figuring out how to become the next Diane von Furstenberg. After apprenticing at fashion factories in Wynwood, she attended Parsons School of Design, only to discover her real path as a painter. One cold call to Restoration Hardware’s contemporary art division, and a business was born. Here, the 25-year-old artist talks about success, the stigma of selling out and her desire to create an album cover. When were you bitten by the art bug? “My parents are avid supporters of the arts, so we’d go to Art Miami and Art Basel as normal family outings. We even had Lhasa Apsos named Picasso and Matisse. Around first grade, I saw Titanic and thought Leonardo DiCaprio’s character was the coolest guy. Since he played a figure drawer, I wanted to be like him and got out my crayons and pencils. Only I wasn’t drawing naked women but flowers.”

{ARTIST}

Liv Dockerty This Miami phenom pivoted from fashion design to painting — a decision that proved to be a stroke of genius.

INDULGE | DECEMBER 2017 / JANUARY 2018 | miamiindulge.com

How did you segue from fashion to painting? “At Parsons, I switched my degree from fashion to integrated design to have more opportunity. I’m happy I did because having a diverse background in typography, graphic and interior design all comes together in painting. When I moved home to Miami, I experienced a quarter-life crisis about what I was going to do with my life, and I started to paint as therapy. Not being confined to a tiny New York apartment, I could roll out a big piece of canvas and blast classic rock. It was something pent up in me and just took off.” Do you see a future combining both? “Definitely. I look up to Jeff Koons’ collaboration with Louis Vuitton

(see p. 194). Dior’s artist commissions for its Lady Dior bags last Art Basel also has my name written all over it.” Describe the artwork that got you in the door at RH. “They’re abstract — their inspiration comes from clouds — and typically large with a mix of solid acrylic paints and Golden Interference Acrylic Colors, whose colors and iridescence shift depending on your vantage.” Were you concerned about being labeled a sellout? “Yes, but I think that idea will change since millennials are constantly branding themselves. Even doctors and lawyers are becoming their own brands. We’re OK with making money.” What’s next? “My works are available through a new online gallery, NAVA Contemporary, launched by former art directors from RH. They have a really brilliant, approachable concept because people who might not know much about art have a lot of big walls to fill. My elementary school approached me to teach art, too. As for my wish list, I’d love to design an album cover like George Condo did for Kanye West.” WORDS BY REBECCA KLEINMAN / PHOTOGRAPHY BY FELIPE CUEVAS

the movers {MAYOR}

Daniel Dietch

He’s rolling along with his plan to help Surfside evolve into a destination for luxury developments, public art and community spaces.

ood luck trying to pigeon-hole Surfside Mayor Daniel Dietch. He’s a trained geologist and anthropologist who worked as an archaeologist in Israel before earning multiple master’s degrees, the latest an MBA from the University of Miami. He skateboards to city meetings, he’s lived in the woods, and he listens to Phish. He consults on environmental issues, and he collects art. Dietch is definitely multifaceted, which he says helps him to look at issues from different angles and see the big picture. ‘A REAL APPRECIATION’ As mayor for the past seven years, Dietch’s big picture has been positioning Surfside as a haven for high-end properties like Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club and Fendi Château, while simultaneously creating attractive public spaces and fostering a sense of community. The 48-year-old father of two also incorporates his love of art into his public and personal lives. “I’m not creative in that way, so I have a real appreciation when someone can translate what they see in their minds into reality,” Dietch said. As a family of skateboarders — Dietch and his sons have a ramp in their backyard — it was only natural that on a trip to New York, the Dietches acquired two Kehinde Wiley prints on skateboard decks.

MEET THE MAYOR SAY PLEASE AND… Believes in sending handwritten thank-you notes, because his grandmother taught him to.

HAVING FUN For the holidays, his family creates a goofy card for family and friends. One year they dressed as the British royal family.

OLD HABITS Drinks coffee from the same blueand-white travel mug he’s had since 1992.

WORDS OF WISDOM He regularly emails inspirational quotes to his sons.

LOCAL ARTISTS Dietch likes collecting pieces that reflect where he lives. Local artists prominently displayed on his walls include Robert Flynn, Enrique “Sero” Cruz and Garth White, who graffitied the bedroom door of one of Dietch’s sons for his bar mitzvah. The mayor’s appreciation of art also is prevalent through the various public art displays around Surfside, like the town’s Turtle Walk that features 13 turtle sculptures, each painted by a different local artist. The sculptures stand five feet high and were commissioned to bring awareness to sea turtle conservation. A wall at the 96th Street park stood blank for nearly 20 years until artist Douglas Hoekzema aka Hoxxoh was chosen to create a colorful mural. Even Fendi Château has joined in, donating a sculpture by Pablo Atchugarry. “I want to foster local pride and celebrate local artists,” Dietch said. “Art shows the result of a creative process, and it brings excitement.” WORDS BY CHRISTIE GALEANO-DEMOTT / PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICK GARCIA

Faith Xenos

A wealth manager who built her practice by working with female investors wants to help women make it rain.

aith Xenos didn’t find success in the maledominated world of wealth management by assimilation. Rather, she prospered by focusing on a group of investors that her colleagues had been overlooking: women. Today, Xenos is the CIO and COO at Singer Xenos, the Coral Gables wealth management firm she cofounded. And the Women’s Financial Services Division, which she started more than 25 years ago, continues to grow, expanding by more than 10 percent in 2017. At Singer Xenos, women make it rain: 65 percent of the firm’s largest client assets are either jointly or wholly controlled by women. SMART INVESTMENTS When she got started, Xenos found herself helping widows navigate the difficult financial waters following a spouse’s death. “They didn’t want to ask what they considered the dumb questions,” Xenos said. “So I started putting the dumb questions on the table. It’s a good place to begin.” Her enthusiasm for art can, at times, conflict with her knowledge as a financial adviser. Like the time she paid too much for a pair of Lapis vases, her first major purchase. “I still love them, but I found out I really overpaid for them, which happens to a lot of people,” she said. “It’s like any other investment, when you fall in love with it, you may overpay.” IMPORTANT ASSETS There’s always a risk with investing, as Xenos was reminded of during Hurricane Irma. She’s a big collector of art objects, things like Buccellati silver and those vases. She said she knows the importance of insurance. And yet… “When I looked at the cost of insuring my collectibles, jewelry and art, it was prohibitively expensive,” Xenos said. “I thought, ‘No problem, I’ll just keep them safe, and it will all be good.’” Xenos’ home was in an evacuation zone, so where did the beautiful Buccellatis go? Up in a second-floor room, away from the windows. “The water intrusion in my house didn’t damage those things, but in hindsight I didn’t protect these assets,” Xenos said. “The storm was a big stress test, and we learned a lot.” WORDS BY NINA LINCOFF / PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICK GARCIA

{BRAIN OF TRAINS}

Dave Howard

Five questions for the CEO of Brightline, a New York transplant with the inside track on getting Floridians to ride the rails.

hen Brightline launches its express, inter-city train service by the end of the year, not only will it connect Miami to Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach in record time, it also will unveil the landmark Miami Central station downtown. The 11-acre mobility hub will link all of Miami-Dade County transit and boast a 20,000-square-foot food hall with a new restaurant by celebrity chef brothers Bryan and Michael Voltaggio. Brightline’s second phase will connect South Florida to Orlando. We talked with Brightline CEO Dave Howard, a former general counsel and executive with the New York Mets and President of MSG Sports, to find out how Brightline will transform our commutes. What drew you to Brightline? “It’s such a transformative, innovative and game-changing project that I could not help but become involved. Having been a New Yorker my whole life, I understand the importance of alternative transportation options in the life of a well-functioning region.” How do you see Brightline revolutionizing the way we get around? “As we seamlessly connect the three downtown city centers, we’re going to make people’s backyards bigger. They will have access to events and activities that they might not have thought about in the past because of traffic and parking challenges. It could be going to a new restaurant in Palm Beach or to a festival in Fort Lauderdale or to a Miami Heat game.”

INDULGE | DECEMBER 2017 / JANUARY 2018 | miamiindulge.com

How will the station change downtown Miami? “Residents will use Miami Central for culinary and business opportunities irrespective of whether they’re taking Brightline. It’s a visually stunning structure downtown designed by Skidmore Owings & Merrill along with Miami’s Zycosovich Architects. It’s already spurring substantial development.” What’s interesting about the experience aboard Brightline? “On board, the seats are leather with power ports. The windows are big and offer great views. We’ll have powerful and free WiFi. The trains are the most accessible ever built, from an ADA perspective. We’re particularly proud that the trains are 100-percent Buy American-compliant, using components supplied by more than 40 suppliers from 20 different states.” Do you like living in South Florida, having moved this year from New York? “I love it. I spent a lot of time in Florida during my time with the Mets because we had our spring training and minor league facility in Port Saint Lucie. My wife, Nancy, studied illustration at the Parsons School of Design in New York. I’m very excited — and she’s even more excited — about participating in Art Basel this year and getting more integrated into the offerings locally. A lot of the art that we have are pieces that she’s bought.” WORDS BY SHAYNE BENOWITZ / PHOTOGRAPHY BY FELIPE CUEVAS

Pauldine France

A magic formula of style, substance and smarts has served this real estate star well.

auldine France has taken an unconventional approach to commercial real estate that has launched her to the top of the game. “I do not use photographs on my business cards, nor do I take on dozens of clients or wear clothing that I find unfit to conduct business,” she said. A senior director at RKF, the retail leasing and brokerage firm, this University of Florida graduate with a background in diplomacy is proof that hard work and refined style can render excellent results. Over the next five years, she’s zeroing in on developing her own mixed-use projects. “I’m particularly bullish on serviced rental apartments,” she said. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY And she is particularly focused on achieving her goals while taking care of her clients. “I never have more than 20 emails, I answer my telephone calls myself, and I provide service of quality, not quantity.” And, for the record, clothing that she finds fit for business? Adam Lippes, Aritzia and Helmut Lang are among her go-to designers. Raised between Miami and Haiti, France has her bag of tricks for staying cool while doing site visits on scorching days. “Wearing linen helps this island girl.” Now she lives part time between Brickell and Long Island City. She said she finds the Manhattan skyline “invigorating and inspiring,” while she revels in Miami’s flexibility and business potential. Find her here doing her eight-minute walk to the office in flip-flops, sunglasses on, cellphone in hand, while toting her Valentino heels in a YSL bag.

‘COLOR INVIGORATES’ Her art preferences lean toward vibrant colors: the outdoor dynamics of the ’80s Brooklyn art scene and Wynwood Walls. “There is a visual and emotional warmth that I’m accustomed to reflected in my personality, my home décor and style of dress,” France said. “Color invigorates.” A devotee of Art Basel Miami Beach since its beginning, France said she appreciates the inclusion of street and urban art in galleries. She also enjoys viewing works from Italian chiaroscuro master Caravaggio, color explorer Paul Gauguin and surrealist bad boy Salvador Dalí. She bought a piece at last year’s Basel, a large oil canvas painting by a muralist that sits in her condominium’s living room. “I hope another piece captures my heart,” she said of this year’s Art Week, “and that I can afford it.” WORDS BY MARCIA MORGADO / PHOTOGRAPHY BY ANDREW INNERARITY / HAIR AND MAKEUP BY RORY LEE

{ADVOCATES}

Roy Black & Stuart Grossman

The powerhouse attorneys and passionate arts patrons find a moment to breathe before Basel sets in.

tuart Grossman and Roy Black have mastered the art of the courtroom. As lawyers at the pinnacle of their profession, they craft arguments, canvas for facts and paint pictures for juries that win their clients freedom and multimillion-dollar verdicts. It only stands to reason that these guys are avid art fans who count the days every year until Art Basel. Art for them is an escape from their hectic work lives — and each has his own way of enjoying it. AT HOME WITH ART For Black, it’s something to decorate his Coral Gables house, built by George Merrick and designated a historic property. “None of it is really worth anything,” he said, being polite. “The pieces are more decorative than anything else.” Take the groovy gold gator hanging on a wall. Photographer Greg Lotus, who has shot many a Vogue cover, noticed it while at a party at Black’s and asked to borrow it for a photo shoot. Now, next to the gator (Black graduated a double ’Cane, by the way, and has been teaching at the law school for nearly 45 years), stands the framed magazine piece Lotus sent as a thank-you. Or take the numerous works by 1960s cartoon/pop artist Peter Max, who Black became friends with while defending him on charges of income-tax evasion. “I would sit with him and my wife, and he would draw pictures while we’d be talking and give it to us,” Black said. “Just a fascinating man!”

Grossman lives in Coral Gables with his wife, Karyn, also an art collector, and has a passion for philanthropy. A former chair of the Miami-Dade County Cerebral Palsy Foundation, Grossman also founded Margaux’s Miracle Foundation, named in honor of his daughter, who died of a rare childhood cancer. It funds, among other things, a research fellowship at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Black, who says his sole hobby is reading, is noted for successfully defending William Kennedy Smith against rape charges in the nation’s first televised trial. He married one of the jurors, Lea, who starred on Real Housewives of Miami and is known for her fundraising efforts for at-risk youth through their Blacks’ Annual Gala and other nonprofits. Black’s many headline-attracting clients have included Rush Limbaugh and, “Who’s that boy singer today?” he asked with a smile. Bieber? “Yes! That was an experience.” ENJOYING IT ALL Despite years of intense lawyering, Grossman and Black find time to appreciate things like fine art — or a good laugh. Like when Grossman came to Black’s home for this article’s photo shoot wearing slacks and a shirt, only to have his counterpart greet him in a full suit. “I thought it was casual!” Grossman said. “I almost called you to find out how you were dressing.” Not skipping a beat, Black retorted: “You’re a [personal injury] lawyer — you can be casual. I’m more corporate.” He paused. “But you do need a lot of makeup.” WORDS BY LAUREN COMANDER / PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICK GARCIA

MODERN AND ABSTRACT Grossman, meantime, is the more traditional art collector, catalogue and all. He started buying pieces two years into his career under the tutelage of Helen Heninger, then the art director of Gump’s Gallery in San Francisco. Grossman tends toward the modern and abstract, with pieces from the likes of Larry Rivers, Richard Diebenkorn and Robert Motherwell, and displays them in his Florida and Montecito, California, homes. At last year’s Basel, he picked up a video piece honoring Georgia O’Keefe. The two powerhouses met as lawyers “trying to make a living,” as Black puts it, and now hold two of the 500 spots in the prestigious International Academy of Trial Lawyers. Though they run in the same circles, their client list is quite different. PATHS TO JUSTICE Grossman, an avid skeet shooter and fly fisher, fights for the underdog and for lifesaving procedural changes: a black man who died after police applied a chokehold, an 8-year-old killed after the power company knocked out lights to a busy intersection, two young men who became quadriplegics after jumping unknowingly into shallow water. “I try to make a difference and right something that’s happened,” Grossman said.

Attorneys Stuart Grossman, left, and Roy Black discuss their storied careers and varied tastes in art at Black’s home in Coral Gables.

Antonia Canero Davies is the founding partner of Canero Immigration Law Firm. She has practiced in Miami since 1992 and specializes in U.S. Immigration Law. How do you describe Canero Immigration Law Firm? “We have been serving clients for more than 20 years. There are four attorneys and five paralegals in our firm, and we are a boutique, full-service immigration firm. Though we specialize in employment-based immigration, investment visas and corporate matters, we also have a litigation and family-law immigration practice.” What sets your firm apart from others? “Our firm develops a strategy for the individual and their family first, and then we meet the corporate objectives. Immigration is a complex and unnerving legal process which involves many very personal choices. Our approach ensures that all the parties explore each facet of the new employment or investment before beginning the immigration process. Our goal when we start a case is to win. We know the problematic legal issues before we start, so we plan accordingly and use a combination of legal solutions. We strive for satisfied clients.” What is something people may not know about your firm? “Throughout my 25 years of practicing immigration law, I have focused on creating a partnership with my clients. The firm's philosophy is that clients need to take responsibility for their case. Since immigration law is complex, we use our knowledge and experience to simplify it and ensure our clients understand what we are doing each step of the process. Each form we fill out contains a person's life; the devil is in the details, so each case gets personal attention and my review. “Our team is our best asset, so we dedicate a lot of resources to staying current and evolving along with the law. We encourage lawyers and paralegals to attend at least one national conference a year, and one monthly webinar in their specialty. We have weekly team meetings to ensure the efficient handling of each caseload and the delegation of staff resources.”

A craftsman in the kitchen, chef Makoto Okuwa takes us behind the making of a salmon dish he’s just added at his eponymous restaurant in Bal Harbour. WORDS BY EVAN S. BENN / PHOTOGRAPHY BY FELIPE CUEVAS

ix years into Makoto Restaurant, a partnership with Stephen Starr at Bal Harbour Shops, chef Makoto Okuwa still gets excited about new dishes he creates. Like his Shake Ochazuke. The traditional Japanese comfort food stars a grilled salmon fillet atop brown rice and fresh vegetables, all in a shallow pool of hot dashi spiked with soothing green tea. Makoto, ever generous with his art, shares his techniques and tips for making the dish at home.

Why add Shake Ochazuke to your menu? “In Japan, where I’m from, people eat this after a night of drinking or as a late-night dinner. It’s a Japanesestyle complete meal: starch, vegetable, soup and protein in one dish! My goal is to introduce my country’s food culture to our guests.” What are your tips for cooking salmon? “I always cook this salmon to medium doneness. At the restaurant, we cook it over charcoal with the skin on. The harder the heat hits

the skin, the better flavor you’ll get. Cooking with the skin on is critical. The umami from the skin flavors the rest of the fish. Then at the end we remove the skin and replace it with toasted nori, which looks like crispy skin but it doesn’t impart such a fishy element to the dish.” How did you come up with the Green Tea Dashi? “My favorite way to eat ochazuke is just by pouring hot green tea over the salmon, rice and vegetables. But I wanted to create a more complex

flavor for the menu at Makoto. So we added the dashi blend with the green tea, which makes it more flavorful and soup-like.” What’s the most important step of this recipe? “You have to pour the broth when it’s very hot. If the dashi is not hot enough, you’ll enjoy it half as much!” Makoto Restaurant at Bal Harbour Shops, 9700 Collins Avenue, Bal Harbour; 305-864-8600; makotorestaurant.me.

SHAKE OCHAZUKE (SALMON WITH GREEN TEA DASHI) MAKES 2 SERVINGS

INGREDIENTS 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin-on 2 tablespoons ponzu sauce 2 tablespoons butter mixed with fresh shiso 1 cup beets or other seasonal vegetables, quartered 2 cups Green Tea Dashi (see recipe) 1 cup cooked brown rice 2½ teaspoons kizami (chopped) wasabi

2 sheets toasted nori ¼ cup microgreens or fresh herbs GREEN TEA DASHI 3 tablespoons loose-leaf green tea 3 tablespoons bonito flakes 5 cups dashi 2½ teaspoons lemon juice 1½ teaspoons soy sauce 1½ teaspoons salt

1. Season the salmon with salt and pepper and place on a grill over indirect heat. Baste with ponzu sauce while cooking, about 7-9 minutes, depending on thickness. Finish with shiso butter before assembling rest of the dish. 2. While salmon is cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt, then blanch the vegetables. Remove from water. 3. Meanwhile, make the Green Tea Dashi: Combine green tea and bonito flakes in a tea bag or tea strainer, and place in an empty tea pot. Heat the dashi to just below boiling, 195 degrees, then pour it into the tea pot with the tea bag. Add lemon juice, soy sauce and salt, and allow to steep. 4. Place the brown rice in a bowl, and top with kizami wasabi. Arrange the blanched vegetables next to the rice. Remove skin from the salmon fillets and replace it with the toasted nori sheets. Place salmon on top of the rice. Pour Green Tea Dashi as desired. Garnish with microgreens. NOTES: Adapted from a recipe by chef Makoto Okuwa of Makoto Restaurant in Bal Harbour. Ingredients like ponzu, shiso, kizami wasabi, nori, bonito flakes and dashi are available at Miami-area Asian markets or online.

hampagne has a way of elevating every experience, whether you’re taking in art, ringing in the New Year or staying in with friends. Once exclusively associated with special occasions, French sparkling wine has become less of an extravagance and more of an everyday indulgence. Because who’s to say an intimate dinner at home or even a new haircut isn’t reason enough to celebrate with a bottle of bubbly?

DECODING THE LABEL In the world of Champagne, finding your sweet spot depends on the dosage — sugar added to a bottle before corking. A higher dosage means a sweeter Champagne, while the driest ones — brut nature — have no added sugar. Brut is the most popular style and sits roughly in the middle of the spectrum. YOU’VE BEEN USING THE WRONG GLASSWARE A long, elegant Champagne flute is great for watching those beautiful bubbles dance and float to the surface. But its narrow opening means too little surface area for wine’s delicate aromas to find their way to your nose. “It’s like watching an episode of Game of Thrones with your eyes closed,” said Belinda Chang, a James Beard Award-winning sommelier. “You get the sound, but you’re missing most of the fun.” Instead, opt for a regular wine Champagne glass. Dario Vigil, beverage flute director for Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club, recommends a white wine glass for lighter BordeauxChampagnes, proseccos and style glass cavas, and a larger Bordeaux-style glass for vintage Champagnes with more body.

{ NEIGHBORHOOD }

LITTLE RIVER

Named for the winding waterway that separates the neighborhood from El Portal to the north, Little River is emerging as Miami’s latest hub of art and design. Its historic roots — before the rebirth of the Ironside district and influx of modern galleries and trendy cafés — trace to being a settling ground for Haitian immigrants, who went to work in the area’s warehouses and bottling plants. Located just north of Little Haiti along the North Miami Avenue corridor, Little River today manages to strike a balance between industrial and impossibly cool. Cultural pioneers like MADE at the Citadel and Nina Johnson live harmoniously alongside old favorites like B&M Market and the quirky Football Sandwich Shop, making Little River an urban destination for the creatively inclined.

Much of Anthony Spinello’s success in the art world can be credited to brutal honesty. The young gallerist’s career began in 2004, at the nowshuttered Liquid Blue gallery in Wynwood. At the time, Spinello had attended a show there, and the gallery’s owner, real estate titan Jeff Morr, asked for his opinion. “You want the truth?” Spinello remembers saying, a brazen reply for a 21-year-old graphic designer. Morr was impressed by his critique and offered Spinello the role of gallery director. From that position, he triaged the gallery’s aesthetic before founding Spinello Projects in his Midtown apartment in 2005. “I had a wall separating my tiny living quarters from the gallery,” he said. Twelve years and almost a dozen moves later, Spinello Projects remains a cornerstone of Miami’s arts community. Its latest home, in Little River, is a former auto-body shop that Spinello transformed into “a unique space where we’re able to house art and have a large audience.”

HIGH ON THE

LOEWS

he Loews Miami Beach Hotel has something for everyone — every adult, child and dog. And, after a newly completed $50-million facelift as it prepares for its 20th anniversary in 2018, the Loews still has an unbeatable location: on the ocean, steps from Lincoln Road, in the middle of it all but somehow secluded in peace. You can let the day slip by at the pool, a frozen drink in your hand, a live band keeping your thoughts at bay. You can seek solace at the beach, riding the waves or building sandcastles in a shaded pit. You can set off on foot to find culture — The Fillmore, New World Symphony, Bass and Wolfsonian are all within blocks — or new clothes from designer boutiques along Collins Avenue. Or you can simply laze on your balcony while watching cruise ships lumber out to sea. It may sound trite to say the world is your oyster at the Loews Miami Beach, but it’s true (especially at the raw bar of its Lure Fishbar restaurant). Everyone feels at home when they’re on vacation here.

KIDS WELCOME There might not be a more kidfriendly resort in Miami Beach. Signs throughout the property boast “Loews Loves Kids,” and — trust me — kids love Loews, too. How could they not when there are chocolate-chip pancakes next to a bucket brimming with rainbow sprinkle-topped whipped cream at the buffet? And for dessert (ha!), kids can choose a mini cupcake with a chocolate number on top to match their age. Foosball and ping-pong tables and a life-size Connect Four game near the zero-entry pool keep family time going. Direct beach access makes it easy to sign up for a Banana Boat ride or take out a kayak or paddleboard. The Kids Club, which also got a piece of the hotel’s big renovation investment, features daily activities like treasurediving in the pool and making pizzas in a stone oven. ULTIMATE LUXURY If you’d rather keep the kids in sight and are looking for the ultimate VIP experience, the hotel’s poolside

Heading into its 20th anniversary, the newly refreshed Loews stands out among Miami Beach resorts for its vibe that’s equal parts adult-cool and kid-friendly.

Some of the Loews’ pool cabanas, left, are air-conditioned and include private butler service. One of the hands-on Kids Club activities is making pizzas like the ones that come out of the stone oven at Bar Collins, above. Signature restaurant Lure Fishbar is a destination for even non-hotel guests, who come for its fresh sushi, below left, and other treats from the sea. Miami mixologist Julio Cabrera designed its cocktail program, right, and its Miami Joe Coffee Co., below, serves Panther Coffee along with scoops of ice cream.

NEED AN EXCUSE TO SPEND THE NIGHT Three more reasons to staycation this winter.

SOAK Cabanas are perfect for families, accommodating up to six people. Hands down, their key amenity is air-conditioning, but full bathrooms, Apple TVs with kids programming and private butlers who delight with hourly amenities (think smoothies and fruit trays) aren’t shabby either. The Loews Loves Kids mantra extends to the Exhale Spa, where estheticians do a fine mom-andme mani. But it’s always nice to enjoy grown-up time at the spa, and there are plenty of opportunities for that. Start your morning at the daily meditation class, held on the rooftop’s Zen Terrace, and either continue the relaxation by taking in a massage or blow off steam at an exercise class that rivals those offered at elite, members-only gyms.

EVERYONE EATS WELL The hotel’s royal treatment extends to four-legged family members. The Loews made headlines in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma for opening its doors to locals and their pets after the property’s power was restored relatively quickly, giving cool refuge at deeply discounted nightly rates. Even outside of hurricane season, the 790-room hotel is quick to offer a check-in treat to its well-behaved canine guests, who can partake in room-service meals prepared especially for them. When it comes to dining for people, the options are seemingly endless. All of the hotel restaurants proudly serve local products — Panther Coffee, Funky Buddha Brewery and Zak the Baker are staples here — and Miami master mixologist Julio Cabrera had a

hand in the Bar Collins cocktail menu and staff training. Staying on property for the breakfast buffet is a no-brainer (remember the pancakes and whipped cream), and, for dinner, Lure Fishbar is a destination restaurant unto itself. Of course, the world is your oyster, so feel free to explore one of the critically acclaimed restaurants within walking distance or a quick Uber ride away. If you want to get rid of that beach-hair frizz before dinner, hit the on-site Glam+Go for a blowout. Whether you stay in or go out, it’s high time you head to the Loews for a holiday staycation.

Holy Land, Heavenly Food

A culinary tour through Israel’s modern restaurants, neighborhood markets and ancient food traditions.

COURTESY (MACHNEYUDA)

ou’ll never forget your first trip to Israel, especially if you keep a journal of your travel memories. That’s what I did in 1995 when, a few weeks before my 13th birthday, I went there with my family, to become a bar mitzvah atop Masada, the historic desert fortress. I brought that same journal with me when I returned to Israel this summer, alternating between reading the old passages and writing new ones. My unintelligible cursive then and now notwithstanding, what a difference 22 years makes. Those 1995 entries were filled with wide-eyed impressions of history and religious lessons come to life. The pages from the recent trip with my wife have more words

dedicated to divine food than to sacred sites. Regardless of your tourist desires, and even without a travel journal, a vacation to Israel is not one you’ll soon forget. It’s easier than ever to get there now that El Al has resumed its nonstop Miami-Tel Aviv route (from $1,000 roundtrip). I’ll spare you the musings of 12-yearold me, but here’s a peek into my journal from our latest visit to help you plot an eating tour through the land of milk and honey.

Seasonal dishes from Machneyuda in Jerusalem, above and left. The restaurant’s name is a play on Machane Yehuda, the giant outdoor market that it neighbors and where it sources most of its ingredients.

TEL AVIV Israeli soldiers are smoking after-lunch cigarettes and international Birthright students are mingling outside North Abraxas (no website) when we arrive for a snack. A U-shaped bar looks into an open kitchen, and cooks periodically light bowlfuls of sage on fire to refresh the air. Chef Eyal Shani is credited with igniting a global cauliflower craze, and his original version here — roasted whole, its charred leaves and head scattered with sea salt — is simple, straightforward cooking at its finest. Ditto an appetizer of fat Jericho green beans, snappingly fresh under a light sheen of lemon juice and garlic. Restaurateur Ofra Ganor’s beachside flagship, Manta Ray (mantaray.co.il ), draws locals and visitors alike. They come for her wildly varied

meze selections and super-fresh fish. From a serving tray with a dozen options, we picked cold salmon with Italian parsley, charred octopus with white beans, and roasted okra with tomato to accompany local sea bream, the whole-roasted catch of the day. We toured the Carmel Market with Inbal Baum, a U.S. expat and former attorney who runs the culinary company Delicious Israel (deliciousisrael.com). She led us to the city’s Yemenite quarter, on the outskirts of the market, and to Shlomo & Doron (facebook.com/ shlomodoronhumus). Making hummus since 1937, Shlomo & Doron gets everything right, from slightly warm, impossibly smooth chickpea dip to fluffy, pillowy pita to swipe it up. It’s also one of the few spots to find an unorthodox but otherworldly combination of shakshuka served in a hummuslined bowl — creamy, acidic and brilliant. Global food halls have found their way to Israel, and two of the newest are in Tel Aviv. Rothschild Allenby Market (rmarket.co.il ) and Sarona Market (saronamarket.co.il ) attract young, in-the-know eaters who come to nosh on everything from Japanese ramen to South African curries to Georgian breads. North of Tel Aviv, near the foot of Mount Carmel, the family-run Tishbi Winery (tishbi.com) pairs wine flights with high-end Valrhona chocolates. Behind the tasting room, an onsite bakery pulls warm raisin challahs and lush cheesecakes from a wood-fired oven, and — on Fridays before sundown — a food truck parked out back smokes the best barbecue brisket I’ve tasted outside St. Louis. At a Druze village (el-carmel.co.il ) atop Mount Carmel, a guide explains the ancient faith and its traditions over a table-bending feast of rice pilaf, stuffed grape leaves, lamb sausage, roasted eggplant, baklava, tea and spiced coffee.

ACRE Chef, restaurateur and hotelier Uri Jeremias has put the peaceful port city of Acre (also spelled Akko) in northern Israel on the world’s culinary map. His long-running Uri Buri (2eat.co.il/eng/ uriburi) — TripAdvisor’s No. 1 restaurant in the Middle East — is located just down the street from the Efendi Boutique Hotel (efendi-hotel.com). Jeremias opened the 12-room Efendi five years ago in a refurbished Ottoman palace that melds historic elements like a Crusader-era wine cellar and original ceiling frescos with modern luxuries. The Efendi’s rooftop is a prime perch to take in a Mediterranean sunset before strolling over to Uri Buri. A tasting menu shows off house favorites — thinly sliced salmon with wasabi sorbet is classic — as well as whatever’s outrageously fresh that day. For us, that was raw anchovies brined in seawater, pan-seared scallops with seaweed and a touch of cream, and shrimp with artichokes and a squeeze of lemon. We retired to the Efendi for a restful sleep in superb linens, only to wake up to more food. Shakshuka, rich jams, freshly squeezed juices, housemade lebneh and warm breads are fortification for a day of touring or traveling.

JERUSALEM Machane Yehuda Market (en.machne.co.il ) is the beating heart of Jerusalem’s culinary soul. More than 250 stalls hawking everything from fruits and spices to halvah and cheese come together in a maze of activity that crescendos on Fridays as shoppers prepare for the sabbath. Merav Oren, whose Open Restaurants (open-restaurants.co.il ) connects food lovers with chefs through workshops, cooking demonstrations, panel talks and tours, led us through the market, coaxing choice samples — tahini, dried nuts, herbal juices, Turkish meatballs — from her favorite vendors. At night, the produce stands close their shutters — revealing colorful commissioned graffiti art — and the craft beer bars, cocktail joints and late-night food kiosks come alive. Machane Yehuda is the birthplace of the Jerusalem Mixed Grill, a street food for the brave: griddled bits of cumin-seasoned chicken hearts, livers, onions and peppers stuffed in a pita. I liberally splashed mine with amba, a pickled mango hot sauce, and felt like I’d won the night.

the life

The ideally situated David Citadel Hotel (thedavidcitadel.com) is steps from The Eucalyptus (the-eucalyptus.com), just outside the Jaffa Gate to the Old City. Chef-owner Moshe Basson cooks new-school takes on decidedly old-school cuisine. Known as Israel’s Biblical Chef, Basson builds his Eucalyptus menu on wild herbs, native ingredients and ancient recipes. Figs filled with minced chicken, and slow-cooked lamb neck with root vegetables under a dome of baked dough were highlights of the family-style Queen of Sheba tasting menu. It’s a taxi ride from the hotel to Mona (monarest.co.il ), where rustic comforts like polenta with mushrooms and chicken livers with date honey are elevated to fine dining. We popped into the Mamilla Hotel’s (mamillahotel.com) rooftop bar for a nightcap overlooking the Old City before returning to the David Citadel next door. A proper Israeli culinary tour should wrap at Machneyuda (machneyuda.co.il ). Situated just outside the market (“machneyuda” is the locals’ nickname for Machane Yehuda), chef Uri Navon and his crew showcase modern creativity and classic techniques through locally sourced ingredients and dishes that are shaped by the area’s history. We plowed through nearly the entire menu while overlooking the action from the kitchen counter. Navon and his crew sent us off with a piece of seared foie gras — an unusual appearance on a dessert course — atop his mom’s semolina honey cake with a spoonful of wild berry coulis. A sweet end — and a reminder not to wait 22 years before coming back.

Mexico City’s Moment Shaken but not broken from a tragic earthquake, the city reminds us of its magical allure.

ndeniably, there is something captivating about the megametropolis that is Mexico City. From Aztec temples to carnitas tacos, we can never seem to get our fill of this place. Its exotic sprawl especially takes hold of creatives — the chefs, curators, artists, architects and others who have come to call it home. On the eve of Art Basel Miami Beach, we took a closer look at the artistic side of Mexico City. STAY Hotelier Samuel Leizorek remembers Polanco before it became the Beverly Hills of his hometown. The produce stand where his abuela shopped sits across from Las Alcobas (lasalcobas.com), the 35-room property he opened after attending The Cornell School of Hotel Administration.

Celebrating the pre-Columbian symbol for infinity, the lobby’s spiral staircase in sculpted rosewood with a zen fountain is the epitome of Yabu Pushelberg’s calm interiors. A longtime Leizorek collaborator, the design team recently completed his Las Alcobas expansion in Napa Valley and is refurbishing the original, 7-year-old hotel in Mexico City for an early 2018 delivery. Double-paned windows and cross-stitched leather headboards set Las Alcobas apart from hipster hotels. Top-floor suites upgrade to unique amenities, whether a bath overlooking a private lavender garden or a wraparound terrace with a two-sided indoor/outdoor fireplace and volcano views.

A display at Casa Bosques bookstore, above, showcases its focus on international art and design titles. At right, a lobby moment at Las Alcobas hotel.

the life

Aurora Spa’s scrub bar looks good enough to eat. But the honey yogurt, avocado, and custom blends of chocolate, walnuts and brown sugar ground in a mortar and pestle are instead meant for nourishing body treatments. Save chowing down for the hotel’s Anatol and Dulce Patria restaurants, supplemented with the addictive chile-dusted dehydrated mango from the mini bar. While other Miami businessmen play golf as a hobby, Yves Naman owns boutique hotel-andAirbnb hybrids. He opened La Valise’s (lavalise. com.mx) three fully appointed apartments in Roma Norte prior to its recent rise in expat popularity. Christian Louboutin, a regular who gifted crocodile skin to upholster a table, always requests El Patio for its signature courtyard with a siesta-ready hammock. Two can sleep under the stars in La Terraza, whose bed wheels outside.

A 24-hour attendant fetches continental breakfast at the café next door and pours complimentary tequila and mezcal toasts. Naman’s cozy concept spreads to Tulum and San Miguel de Allende this winter. EAT Mexico City’s well-trodden culinary trail leads to Pujol (pujol.com.mx), Contramar (contramar. com.mx; best described as the local Joe’s Stone Crab) and taquerías (El Parnita by day and its sundown sister, Páramo, are good bets). But after a run of rankings on world’s best lists, chefs are switching gears to humbler Mesoamerican fare. Tetetlán (tetetlan.com) is a hot-pink compound with a restaurant, juice-and-coffee bar, yoga studio and boutique located in restored stables. They are part of an iconic estate by architect Luis Barragán, and the name of the compound borrows the indigenous Nahuatl people’s word for “stony ground.” Clear flooring shows off its namesake volcanic terrain, a trippy sensation even without tequila. The chef begins his day at Xochimilco, where farmers cultivate the same agricultural canal system as their Aztec ancestors. Heirloom corn,

often as roasted cobs coated in huitlacoche, a pungent fungus, also sneaks into an Asadero cheese-oozing quesadilla. A cheese plate sources manchego and brie from Querétaro, whereas the margarita Palenque’s D’Aristi Xtabentún liqueur travels to Mayan territory. Though Mia Domenicca (miadomenicca.mx) opened last year, its new El Bulli-trained chef is putting his spin on the Mediterranean menu. His stint at Los Angeles’ French-themed Patina crops up through edible silver pearls nestled in raw Kumamoto oysters and pink oyster mushrooms à la meunière. Red wine-braised lamb shoulder crumbles with a fork. The Salty Gin, a dirty martini with a splash of tonic, outsells a Mexican adaptation of the pisco sour made with mezcal. Alas, principal Diego Patrón worked for the city’s Gin Gin joints (gingin.mx). Drinks and dishes at Mia Domenicca, left and far left, are the creations of principal Diego Patrón and his new chef, Santiago Migoya.

If I knew what art was I would say Today you are in this world Among six billion strangers And 60 centuries of history And 24,000 miles in any direction And tomorrow you are dust Art is how we try to understand this. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; From Three Short Poems by Sarah A. Bean

Cultural Icon

An intimate conversation with Jorge Pérez, Miami’s reigning king of art.

WORDS BY SIOBHAN MORRISSEY PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICK GARCIA HAIR, MAKEUP AND GROOMING BY ANDREA ECHAVARRIA AND VICKY MEJIA

orge Pérez wants to propel his namesake museum into becoming a Pan-American pantheon for art and culture. He sees Pérez Art Museum Miami as no less than the lynchpin uniting the cultures of North and South America. To realize that goal, he intends to focus on Latin American art — while remaining open to collecting great works created by artists anywhere in the world. “My preference is to buy a lot of great Latin American art so Miami becomes a Latin American culture center,” Pérez said. “I would like to see Miami become more and more the center of culture between the Americas. To combine the cultural thinking of the North and the South. And in doing that, I’m now following artists that are not only Latin American, but [whose work] I just love.” In an exclusive and wide-ranging interview with INDULGE, Pérez, 68, discussed his vision and plans during the course of an entire morning at his Miami manse overlooking Biscayne Bay. While a cadre of workers tended to huge trees that Hurricane Irma felled in his front yard, Pérez spoke about his latest ideas for PAMM and about how his taste in art is evolving. He also outlined his strategy for collecting art and revealed a few works he really wants to win at auction — if the price is right.

INDULGE | DECEMBER 2017 / JANUARY 2018 | miamiindulge.com

As Chairman and CEO of The Related Group, Jorge Pérez is helping reshape the South Florida skyline. As a cultural benefactor, he is hoping to build Miami into a world-class arts destination. Art fills the walls of his downtown Miami office. Previous page: Pérez admires Cuban artist Elizabet Cerviño, who used 225 handkerchiefs to wipe blue paint from a canvas, resulting in this diptych titled Limpiar El Cielo (To Clean the Sky).

ADMIRED ARTISTS

“I’m a follower of artists who I’ve liked for a long time,” Pérez said, naming those currently in his collection, such as three stalwarts of American contemporary art: Sol LeWitt, John Chamberlain and Kenneth Noland. He also is developing a strong desire for the work of several German artists, including Gerhard Richter, Anselm Kiefer, Günther Förg and A.R. Penck. His Latin American favorites include two artists from his native Argentina — Julio Le Parc and Luis Felipe Noé — as well as Cubans José Bedia and Rubén Torres Llorca, both of whom he believes are severely undervalued today. (Pérez, whose parents are Cuban, was born in a suburb of Buenos Aires. He has strong ties to both countries, as well as Colombia, where his family fled after Fidel Castro took power.) Pérez said he wants to add depth to the collection, in addition to melding North and South, by showcasing some of the best works representative of the United States and its European heritage as well as the often overlooked brilliance of Latin America.

FOUR CURRENT FAVORITES

Pérez wants to add depth to PAMM's collection, showcasing the overlooked brilliance of Latin America.

Jorge Pérez keeps track of the art he owns — and the art he wants to own — on his phone through Artfinder.com. It organizes his collection by artist’s name and nationality. And while Pérez tends to collect by artist rather than individual works, he acknowledged being partial to a few recent acquisitions. He singled those out here, as well as one that his wife, Darlene, said even manages to capture the attention of their teenage son, Felipe, and his friends. Walter & Zoniel, Iconostatus, 2012 “I think they’re just unbelievably beautiful,” Pérez said of this work’s 18 photographic portraits of people randomly approached in one of England’s ghettoes. “On the background they use gold leaf in a very concrete fashion. So, if you took the faces out, you would almost be looking at concrete art or Latin American art.” Michelangelo Pistoletto, Un Bimbo e Una Bimba, 2015 “We bought two very, very important pieces. This is not only a great, great 20th century artist, but also it’s about Cuba. It’s a beautiful piece of two Cuban children playing. Because of the mirror, you feel as if you are playing with them.”

VERTICAL COLLECTIONS

He envisions a museum collection that not only includes superior art, but also follows the creative lifespan of contemporary artists as they evolve. “The great museums have not just one piece by that artist. They have 20 pieces… I don’t mind buying more than one, two or three, if pieces arrive that complement the pieces and sort of narrate the history of the artist.” He is acutely aware of his role in bringing Latin American art to the world stage. His placement of artists’ work in PAMM brings recognition, which in turn enables them to earn a living. “In a way, I help educate folks as to what the important art is coming from the different [Latin American]

countries,” he said. “Because, if those artists are not picked up by recognized galleries or museums here, there’s no way they get to know who they are. And that’s why PAMM is very, very, very important for the artists. And this is not my ego [talking].” A hands-on guy, Pérez — who maintains a demanding schedule as Chairman and CEO of real estate empire The Related Group — also is seemingly ubiquitous in the art world. He makes a point of attending the major contemporary art fairs and biennales throughout the Americas and Europe. He cultivates relationships with existing and emerging artists. He regularly visits galleries big and small. And he personally inspects art offered for auction.

Liliana Porter, El Hombre con el Hacha y Otras Situaciones Breves, 2017 “Liliana Porter is an artist from Argentina whom I adore. This is a million figures, but it’s all one piece of art. So, all of it comes to Miami, and there will be a room in the museum for an exhibit, before it gets put away.” Darlene’s pick: Rafael Lozano Hemmer, Zero Noon, 2013 “Because it is something that is technologically driven, they’re engaged with the changes that they’re seeing,” Darlene Pérez said of Felipe and his pals. “Raw data is being collected constantly. It’s pretty wild. Hemmer, coming from MIT, is all about artificial intelligence, collecting data. He’s a genius, actually, in our world of art. He’s really pushing the needle.” —SM

'PAMM is very, very, very important for the artists. This is not my ego talking .'

BIDDING STRATEGY

While in London this past fall, he visited the three major auction houses — Christie’s, Sotheby’s and Phillips — to review their contemporary art up for bid in early October. Often auction houses sell art way below what one would expect to pay at a gallery, he said, adding that he has to be selective because typically “a lot of them that go to auction are not good pieces.” But if he finds something he loves at a reasonable price, he will often put in a bid at double the estimate. He becomes passionate about the work even before the bidding starts. For example, Pérez developed an interest in a series of wood cuts by Anselm Kiefer titled Teutoburg Forest and an untitled bronze sculpture by German abstract painter Günther Förg. “Eight years ago, I had seen a Kiefer of faces,” he said, explaining his unrequited interest in the work. “They are done in this thick paper, which are almost engraved, the

146

INDULGE | DECEMBER 2017 / JANUARY 2018 | miamiindulge.com

faces. At auction, it comes out that the book I loved is out for auction. These are unique, individual pieces. I think there are like 60 of them. I’m bidding on it. I think that I’m going to have it, because I’m going to bid like [crazy]. So, I’m hoping another guy that sees it is not nutty about it.” He was equally enthralled with the Förg. “It knocked my socks off,” he said. “From one side you see it, it’s a bronze. And it’s a window. When you see if from the other side, it’s almost like prints, as if somebody had punched the window. And he did it as a commission. They asked him for a commission and there’s this whole story behind it. And I loved it. Not liked it. Loved it. So I said, [forget] it. I don’t care if that’s not his medium. I want my Günther Förg.” Unfortunately, someone else was nutty for the Kiefer, paying more than one and a half times the high estimate, with a winning bid of $301,315. The Förg went for three times the high estimate, selling for $117,600.

'We've got phenomenal curators to help us, but We've always gone by our gut.'

NAVIGATING ART WATERS

It’s all part of the art of collecting, where one must set a limit and know when to fold. Sometimes it’s a matter of biding one’s time and a donor comes forward with a serendipitous gift, such as when inveterate collectors Mimi and Bud Floback donated one of Gerhard Richter’s famous squeegee paintings four years ago. The museum may not have the budget for such a multimillion-dollar painting. But that doesn’t dampen interest and enthusiasm for one

day owning more work by the artist. Pérez currently has his eye on a couple of Richter’s Flow prints. They are a profusion of color in abstract images that resemble a painter’s palette and measure 39 by 78 inches each. Even at that size, they would fit comfortably inside his 120-foot Benetti motor yacht, aptly named Andiamo. Italian for “Let’s go,” it suits his image as a man on the move. “I don’t care if the museum wants [the Richter prints] or not,” he said. “You know where I’m going to put both of those when I get them? In my boat.” ☐

HOME LIKE A MUSEUM The Pérez home is like a mini-museum with an exhibit that rotates every time PAMM puts on a show. “When we see a wall that is blank, it doesn’t last too long,” Darlene Pérez said. “We will change furniture around just to situate [the art], because every piece of art has a place on the wall that looks right for the area, the situation or the mood. We’ve got phenomenal curators to help us, but we’ve always gone by our gut.” A massive armoire-type sculpture by Polish artist Miroslaw Balka migrated to their rec room after being on display in the living room on the upper floor. It currently occupies the area once designated for the family Christmas tree. “With Christmas coming up, what’s going to happen?” Darlene wondered aloud, then laughed. “Realistically, we’re probably going to have to do something with the Christmas tree somewhere else, because, again, art takes precedence with where I’m going to put the Christmas tree. Or, maybe I’ll have a little Charlie Brown one.” —SM

The Future is

Female

Curators, collectors, gallery owners, artist advocates: Four women who are positioning Miami as a leader in the arts world. WORDS BY ERIN MICHELLE NEWBERG PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY BY FELIPE CUEVAS

BRANDI REDDICK Miami Beach’s Cultural Affairs Manager breaks down her day-by-day strategy to get the most out of Art Week. Before taking on her most recent role as Cultural Affairs Manager for the City of Miami Beach, Brandi Reddick curated Miami-Dade’s Art in Public Places program. A Georgia native with a graduate degree from the Savannah College of Art and Design, she’s a Southern belle at heart who is leaving a significant imprint on Miami’s arts scene. Reddick said she looks forward to Basel as “a big reunion where I see artists and gallerists who I’ve worked with or am currently working with.” If you see her out this week, she’ll likely be wearing a mix of vintage pieces and unique finds she’s picked up abroad. Her two non-negotiable style rules: 1. Always keep two pairs of heels on hand. “I never wear flats,” she said. 2. Red lipstick is classic. “It takes any outfit from day to night.”

150

SHE OPENED HER BUSY ART WEEK CALENDAR FOR INDULGE: Tuesday, December 5 (day): Design Miami/ preview. Tuesday, December 5 (night): Art Basel Public Sector opening. Wednesday, December 6 (day): Art Basel VIP opening. Wednesday, December 6 (night): The Bass member preview. Thursday-Friday, December 7-8 (day): “I’ll visit the satellite fairs: Untitled, Pulse, Scope and NADA are all on my list.” Thursday, December 7 (night): Pérez Art Museum Miami. Saturday, December 9 (day): “My all-time favorite Basel activity is Saturday morning studio visits with Miami artists.” Sunday, December 10 (afternoon): “I always go to the Convention Center two hours before the closing of Art Basel. It’s the best time to see the art.”

Untitled is one of the Art Week satellite fairs that Brandi Reddick never misses. Also on her list: Pulse, Scope and NADA.

NINA JOHNSON-MILEWSKI This top Miami gallerist could teach us all a thing about throwing a great art party.

Easily recognizable by her head-turning hair, this Miami-born gallery owner and mother of two boys is in her 10th season of running her Nina Johnson Gallery, formerly Gallery Diet, in Little Haiti.

BASEL HOSPITALITY

“I love to host during the fair! It is our responsibility to show that our city does have a warmer side.” She’s living up to that ideal this month, hosting a grand opening of Katie Stout’s exhibit at Nina Johnson on December 3. Johnson-Milewski is following that with a private dinner at her home to honor artist Emmett Moore. Top architects and designers will be in attendance, and the coolest part: “I commissioned Miami artist Jim Drain to paint a mural in my foyer during the dinner. He will be interacting with our guests!”

SUPERIOR SHOWS

If Johnson-Milewski can break out of the hosting role long enough, she said she’ll first check out NADA, whose move to the Ice Palace has her elated. Then she’ll head to Design Miami/, a show she praised for being “so well executed” and lined with her favorite galleries. “The design market is so small and the Design Miami/ fair is the best reflection of that.”

Nina Johnson-Milewski is a fan of the galleries that show at Design Miami/. New York galleries Friedman Benda, left, and Todd Merrill Studio, above, exhibited at Design Miami/ Basel in June.

CLAIRE BREUKEL

Five things to know about the Curator of Bal Harbour Unscripted and Director of El Salvador’s Y.ES Contemporary. A world-renowned master curator, Claire Breukel is an expert in describing art to others. She leads VIP tours through Bal Harbour, explaining the village’s Unscripted public art installments. She directs El Salvador’s Y.ES Contemporary, an initiative of the Robert S. Wennett and Mario Cader-Frech Foundation, which will host a cocktail reception during Basel to celebrate a new grant for writers. We asked Breukel, originally from South Africa, to give us a tour into her multitalented, multinational mind. Here’s what she said. 1. “I am an avid runner. This January, the Miami Marathon will be my sixth.” 2. “I was the first Director of Locust Projects.” 3. “I helped raised $27.2 million for Bono’s (RED) foundation.” 4. “I am a writer and editor. I published a book called Y.ES Collect Contemporary El Salvador.” 5. “Through the Y.ES foundation, I spend a lot of time in El Salvador, introducing the world to what is happening there. I just got back from a tour where I brought in a group from the Tate in London and Phillips Auction House.”

Claire Breukel wrote a book, above, based on the El Salvador art collection and foundation she directs. She also curates Bal Harbour Unscripted, left, and will run in the Miami Marathon, below.

TANYA BRILLEMBOURG CAPRILES The art dealer and collector also co-founded IdeoBox Artspace in Wynwood. She explains what a low-key approach to Basel looks like. Some people grow up around art. Tanya Brillembourg Capriles grew up around art and artists. In her words: “Born in Venezuela to major art collectors, it was no surprise to have Fernando Botero, Julio Le Parc, Wilfredo Lam, Roberto Mata, Jesus Soto or Maestro Cruz-Diez relaxing in our living room,” she said. “As you can imagine, my interests in the art world were sparked by default. These artists and friends, who are now considered modern masters, were also gracing the walls of our homes in New York City, Paris, Madrid, Kentucky and beyond. “I’ve been in Miami 25 years. Not only am I a collector who founded IdeoBox, an art space in Wynwood, I am a private art dealer, focusing on modern Latin American works. “Last year we exhibited nearly 200 of our 700 works. With my mother’s foundation, Saludarte, we brought Bill Viola along with members of the Baleares Symphony and Medellin Philharmonic for a grand performance. “This Art Basel, I am taking a more-low key approach. I am most looking forward to seeing Elias Crespin’s newest works with Galeria RGR+ART at Art Miami. I also am thrilled to present an exhibit at IdeoBox. I think it will be courageous to step out of the box and show a North Korean artist, Jong Oh. It is always great to offer our visitors something different.” ☐

Artists whose work Tanya Brillembourg Capriles is eager to see include Elias Crespin (Circular Inception, above) and Jong Oh (Line Sculpture 6, left).

NEXT THING

Five on-the-rise artists — including three locals — and where to see their work.

WORDS BY CAITLIN GRANFIELD PORTRAITS BY CARINA MASK, CHRISTINA MENDENHALL AND ZACK OSTROWSKI ARTWORK COURTESY OF THE ARTISTS

CARMEN SMITH

FROM: Hollywood ART: Contemporary Painting SHOWING AT: Superfine!, December 6-10. 56 Northeast 29th Street, Miami; superfine.world.

What about the scenes and structures of South Florida that inspire your art? “At Virginia Commonwealth University, I studied Painting as well as Interior Design, so architecture has been a big part of my life professionally. When I arrived in Miami in 2008, I was captivated by the colorful buildings, the creativity in design, and the old and new buildings juxtaposing one another. “I noticed the light here and how it interacts with buildings. It’s a bright white light, and it makes these great dramatic shadows, especially under awnings. I think identity coheres in places, and people associate emotional and intellectual attachments to places.” What’s one thing you want people to take away from your work? “I hope to inspire a novel perspective on imagery and occurrences we often observe passively, whether it’s the beauty in simple everyday things or the scenes we try to ignore but need our attention the most.” Superfine! Creative Director James Miille on Smith: “What first drew us to Carmen’s work was not only her technical skill, but her ability to paint just a sliver of a scene that the viewer could immediately recognize the location, based on the shadows or the colors of the buildings. It almost conveys a realistic impressionism, allowing one or a few elements of a scene to speak for the setting as a whole.”

South Florida’s bright daylight and dramatic shadows, and their interactions with architecture, inspire Carmen Smith’s work.

Beyond Basel: Smith’s paintings are on display at Gallery One Hotel in Fort Lauderdale until March and will be at Superfine! in Mexico City and New York in February and May, respectively.

ABIGAIL DeVILLE

FROM: Bronx, New York ART: Sculpture SHOWING AT: Her installation Lift Every Voice and Sing will be in the Sculpture Garden at The Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, through October. 61 Northeast 41st Street, Miami; icamiami.org.

Danilo Di Michele in Giorgio Armani.

Why you need to know her: The 36-year-old New Yorker, who earned a BFA from the Fashion Institute of Technology and an MFA from Yale, has been making tsunami-size waves in the art world. Her large-scale installations resurrect forgotten histories of marginalized people who at one time fought to survive in or near the sites where her work is displayed.

How she does it: DeVille first researches the histories of the locations, people and events at the sites where her installations will be displayed. She builds on site, using materials that she finds in surrounding streets and dumpsters. Eventually she merges and connects the area’s past, present and shared DNA on a grand scale.

“The other portion of this new work (amerikanskie gorki) is a reference to the history and development of roller coasters. In Russia they were called American mountains. Splicing this form with the American mountains of discrimination, racism, anti-immigration, which are foundational pyramids in American mythos and pathology.”

What this installation signifies: “In thinking about my contribution for this inaugural exhibition at ICA Miami, I was very mindful of the myriad kinds of immigrant experiences and clashes of the African diaspora that occur daily in Miami. Lift Every Voice and Sing is the unofficial Black national anthem written by James Weldon Johnson.

ICA Miami Chief Curator Alex Gartenfeld on DeVille: “Abigail is, without question, a leading artist of her generation. And her approach to sculpture — as a monument, and as a form — is completely unique and her own. This new installation for ICA Miami has entailed incredible research, involving historical research ranging from the Underground Railroad, the invention of the roller coaster and the legal status of recent immigration from Haiti.”

Abigail DeVille’s large-scale, site-specific installations tell stories of people who had to fight for a better life.

ANIA JAWORSKA

FROM: Chicago ART: Architecture and Design SHOWING AT: NADA, December 7-10. 59 Northwest 14th Street, Miami; newartdealers.org.

Why you need to know her: Jaworska, a native of Poland, teaches at the School of Architecture at the University of Illinois at Chicago and was a finalist in the 2017 MoMA PS1 Young Architects Program. How do you use humor in your work? “I like to think that the work I produce is simultaneously funny and serious, simple and complex, familiar and unfamiliar. Conceptual and spatial impact is achieved through a reductive use of form, generating tension between the known and unknown.” What is your process for connecting art and architecture? “In my practice, a concept can manifest as a model, drawing, screen print, furniture, installation or largescale structure, depending on the objective. I like to treat objects and drawings as their own independent finished works, but also as proposals and possibilities for other explorations. The link between art and architecture is usually evident through the narrative aspect of the work I produce as well as the precise use of formal language and materials.”

Selections of Ania Jaworska’s design work, left. Unit 2b (Coffee Table), above, a lacquered wood piece, is part of her SET series.

Beyond Basel: “My work is represented by Volume Gallery in Chicago, where you can find works from three different series and scales: SET, Subjective Catalog of Columns and Cynic Architectures.”

What do you hope people will learn from your Perfect Stranger, PAMM’s largest exhibition to date of a Miami artist? “What I want is for people to simply come. The work is experiential and physical, and you have to physically be there to understand it. Being there in person is the only chance you have of allowing yourself to see and feel.” How did you get into structural filmmaking? “I met Austrian artist Hermann Nitsch when I was 20 at the Summer Academy in Salzburg. I told him what I actually wanted to do was make films, and he told me I should call his friend Peter Kubelka. So I did. I didn’t really understand this sort of filmmaking at first. The idea was not that a work was judged good or bad, but rather the sense of does it stand up and stay standing?” How can Miami continue to evolve in its arts and culture? “As an artist, you trust your instincts, work very hard to honor and respect those instincts, and then fully commit to the process. I would say the same holds true for a city. It’s a process of both discipline and trust.”

CLAUDIO CASTILLO

FROM: Miami by way of Cuba ART: Digital SHOWING AT: InterContinental Miami’s 19-story exterior LED display and lobby, December 7-10. 100 Chopin Plaza, Miami; icmiamihotel.com.

What’s it like to have a 200foot canvas? “Taking over the InterContinental’s digital canvas will be a career highlight, and it just so happens to be in my backyard. I’m thrilled that my fellow Miamians and visitors will get to experience this firsthand during Art Basel, and I’m hopeful that art lovers will step inside the hotel to experience a series of my generative art pieces, which will be in the lobby.”

Tell us about that work: “The Miami moon and tidal phases will be displayed in real time on a large indoor LED tower, while the background is in a generative cycle that will not repeat in approximately 400,000 years. Alongside there will be a frame displaying an assortment of other generative work, and the video screens will display videos of my older generative work.”

And outside? “I hope to display on the outside marquee a generative clock where the viewer can read the time of day, and see the tides and moon of Miami. Every hour on the hour, a different one-minute animation plays, to remind you of the hour.” InterContinental Miami General Manager Robert Hill on Castillo: “As our city has matured into a global arts destination, and the InterContinental Miami has emerged as downtown’s premier arts hotel, it’s only fitting that we are partnering with a local artist like Claudio to showcase his beautiful and thought-provoking pieces on Miami’s biggest canvas during Art Basel.” ☐ Claudio Castillo created a digital depiction of Miami’s tidal and lunar phases for InterContinental Miami’s 200-foot LED display, left.

WHAT’SNEW

4. NEW LOCATION! p Art Miami, the city’s original international contemporary art fair, pre-dates Basel by about a decade. Along with sister fair CONTEXT, it’s moving from Midtown Miami to a prestigious bayfront plot, the former home of the Miami Herald. One Herald Plaza, Miami; artmiami.com; contextartmiami.com.

Three questions with Philipp Kaiser Swiss-born, Los Angeles-based art expert Philipp Kaiser is making his Art Basel Miami Beach debut as curator of the Public sector, outdoors at Collins Park. INDULGE sat down with him to learn what we can expect under his direction. Why is public art important to Basel? “The Public sector is about bringing art outside of the Convention Center and into a public space where both visitors to the fair and residents of Miami Beach can encounter art in their everyday life. The sector allows audiences to interact with art in a different way than, say, in a gallery, museum or within a booth at an art fair. The open space of Collins Park provides the opportunity to present artworks that are larger in scale and embody more interactive elements that engage the viewer in a visceral and tactile way.” What makes it successful? “A public art piece is successful if it reflects its surroundings. The context is always relevant for the meaning of the artwork. Of course, there is plenty of room for play. In this sense, my exhibition will be focused, but also poetically open-ended.”

5. NEW CONVENTION CENTER! p Slated for completion in September 2018, the Miami Beach Convention Center is still a work in progress, but fairgoers will get a sneak peek at the modern new façade, and all four halls will be activated with entrances on both sides of the building. 1901 Convention Center Drive, Miami Beach; artbasel.com.

What public art has left a lasting impression on you? “When Hauser & Wirth initiated Allan Kaprow’s seminal 1967 environments Fluids, which consisted of numerous brick buildings carved out of ice that were melting under the sun of Basel a few years ago, I thought: This is the ideal public art. Kaprow originally conceived the piece for the Pasadena Museum of Art, but more than 40 years later, the re-staging of this work was as powerful as art can get.” —SB

indulgence By Claudia Miyar

op Art is a reaction against a reaction. After centuries of depicting nature, nudes and important figures, postwar artists freed themselves and made paintings about paint itself. Pop Art returned to depicting subjects, but this time modern, ordinary items like a soup can, a target, a flag. Jeff Koons marries these two traditions — the art of the past and everyday objects (in this case, luxury handbags and accessories) — in his new LV X Koons collection in collaboration with Louis Vuitton. His inspiration was the thread that connects artists over time. “One could see that an artist like Manet was able to become Manet through an awareness of Titian, Velázquez, Watteau and Goya,” Koons said. “This sense of connectivity was a really beautiful thing. It shows how one is able to find interest in something greater than the self.” No doubt these bags will spark interest — and a reaction. LV X Koons collection $585-$4,000. Neverfull MM bags shown $3,200. Louis Vuitton at Miami Design District, 140 Northeast 39th Street, Miami; 305-573-1366; us.louisvuitton.com.
