FAENA JOURNAL

You Start with an Idea You end up with a Culture A new month is upon us and as time passes I can't help but remember when the Faena District was just an idea, sketches in a notebook, the result of long brainstorming sessions with luminaries from the world over. What was a dream is today a reality, the result of our passion, materialized with the help of great collaborators such as Rem Koolhaas, Norman Foster and Baz Luhrmann.Since its inception, these alliances have positioned Faena as

a place where the greatest minds meet, a platform where projects flourish in an atmosphere surrounded by the best in culture, design and hospitality. One notable contributor was the late Glenn O'Brien; we met in 2012 and immediately connected. It was only natural we commissioned him to help us develop what would be the narrative for our project in Miami Beach. Glenn helped us form our first Manifesto—our guiding principle—, putting our culture and

philosophy down in words. The first sentence he wrote for us (you start with an idea, you end up with a culture) was a glimpse into the future. Faena is now a strong voice that rose in the South and brought to the North a new way of doing things. We have gained so much strength through this connection that we are building a global movement – and we want you to be part of it. — Alan Faena

SECRETS OF THE L-SIT BY KINO MACGREGOR OF MIAMI LIFE CENTER. Those who are strong must become flexible and those who are flexible must become strong. The L-sit, also known as Brahmacharyasana, helps build the steady strength and dynamic suppleness of one’s yoga practice. This posture requires engaging the core to get the strength needed to lift up. If you focus too intently on the goal or the shape of the pose, your body will feel very heavy. You must breathe: exhale deeply, prepare the body, rest your mind, and inhale to lift up, move slowly and steadily, follow the breath. Try these tips to practice the L-sit: 1. Deep forward fold. Prepare by spending lots of time lengthening the hamstrings and releasing the lower back. 2. Pull it in. If you try to lift the legs you will end up kicking the legs out. Try instead to pull the heads of the femurs into their sockets and allow the legs to knit themselves into the pelvic floor. 3. Core like crazy. Round the back, tuck the tailbone, hug the lower ribs in and use your core to get the strength. 4. Change your gaze. Tuck the head under and point the crown of the head toward the toes. This releases the neck and assists the spinal flexion needed to lift up. 5. Breathe. Exhale deeply, prepare the body, rest your mind, and inhale to lift up, move slowly and steadily, follow the breath.

Miami Life Center offers open classes at Tierra Santa Studio on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 10:00 am. Drop in classes are $25 per person. In-house guests may dial Tierra Santa Healing House at 4381 for further information or reservations.

Last month, Faena Art, the non-profit cultural branch of Faena, hosted the Biennale of Moving Images, an exploration of the shifting territories of the moving images in contemporary art. importance of including Miamian talent in all of our endeavors. The show exhibited for two weeks at the Faena Bazaar, Faena Park, and the Faena Hotel’s Screening Room using non-traditional locations to feature works that weren’t curated in the traditional sense, but rather gave freedom to artists to play with time as a medium. Seeking to investigate new exhibition models and formats by building a show as a choir, the

exhibit brings polyphonic voices together, opening a window into contemporaneity. OTHER VENUES The Biennale of Moving Images will also be presented by Faena Art in Buenos Aires at the Faena Art Center. Following these exhibitions, it will travel to Teatrino Palazzo Grassi, Fondation Pinault, Venice; Schermo dell’arte, Florence; Tent, Rotterdam; and Galerie de l’UQAM, Montreal.

Sunday Sessions Keeping with its mission, Faena Art kicks off the summer with an event that is free and open to the community. The core mission of Faena is to serve as a platform for cultural expression and a collective space for the local community. To make this mission come to life, we’ve created a robust year-round calendar of eclectic programming with events happening habitually throughout the District. To kick off the summer season, Faena Art will host its first Sunday Session on May 7th, an interactive event where vibrant culture meets classic roller-skating inside of Faena District’s 43,000 square-foot Faena Forum. Once a month, this pop-up will take over the Rem Koolhaas / OMA-designed building, offering guests of all ages a chance to groove into the new week while roller-dancing over a literal work of art (the skating arena is a work created by Brazilian

duo assume vivid astro focus) to the beats of Miami-based DJs, Paperwater. From midday to 10 pm, the event will be open to the public and offer a menu of food and drinks created by our in-house culinary geniuses. No need to bring your skates—we’ve got plenty for you and your friends. JUN

Swagger is not one of those movies. Instead, this joyously innovative documentary immerses viewers in the hopes, dreams, and rich inner lives of eleven teenagers growing up in one of France’s most diverse neighborhoods. With thrilling flights of fantasy—including musical numbers and an imaginative science-fiction sequence—Swagger offers a refreshing, much-needed counter-perspective on the minority experience in France.

As far as the education of children is concerned, I think they should be taught not the little virtues but the great ones. Not thrift but generosity and an indifference to money; not caution but courage and a contempt for danger; nor shrewdness but frankness and a love of truth; not tact but love for one’s neighbour and self-denial; not a desire for success but a desire to be and to know. That’s how Italian writer Natalia Ginzburg begins her essay The Little Virtues, whose magic lies in the complete simplicity of her prose. She wrote this text after losing her husband and raising three children by herself. In it she shares a series of maxims that propose going against the modern, conventional trends of educating children. Unlike the list of 10 rules to raise a child written by Susan Sontag, which deals with everyday life and family routine, Ginzburg’s ecumenical topics encompass the rest. Hers is a modest posture, but is also a large-scale portrait of modern Western ideology, and of what we have considered to be the most important, to a large extent due to how we were raised by our parents; out of “an instinctive fear for life,” she says. While we all acknowledge and even aspire to the great virtues mentioned above, to her it seems we forget to convey them to our children because “we nourish the hope that they will spontaneously appear in their consciousness some day in the future, we think of them as being part of our instinctive nature, while the others, the little virtues, seem to be the result of reflection and calculation and so we think that they absolutely must be taught.” She says, however, that humans can find the small virtues in their surroundings and “drink them in from the air,” because the little virtues are quite common and widespread. By “small virtues,” Ginzburg refers to those defensive instincts that we develop to be more “secure” in life, such as shrewdness, tact and thrift. She makes special emphasis on our relation with money—in teaching kids that “it is bad that they feel lonely without the company of money,” and to be moderate with themselves and generous with others, which translates into a fair relationship with money, to be free from it.

Italian writer Natalia Ginzburg proposes a radically different education, focused on the great virtues and not the day-to-day. It isn’t that small virtues are, by themselves, contemptible, but that their value is of a complementary order, not substantial. They cannot exist without others, or by themselves, and by themselves they are a poor nourishment for human nature. But one cannot breathe in the great virtues from the surrounding air, and they should be the basis of our relationship with our children. Besides, the great can also contain the little, but by the laws of nature there is no way that the little can contain the great. Thus, Ginzburg argues on behalf of conveying love for the truth, generosity and courage, and that the rest of one’s upbringing, focused on the specific and mundane, will come on its own. For this to happen, we must first break the many educational premises our parents gave to us, because we are no longer the same, because the world isn’t the same than when they were young, and because it will continue to change. The great virtues are the only ones that by nature will never lose importance. It is no use our trying to remember and imitate the way our parents acted with us. The time of our youth and childhood was not one of little virtues; it was a time of strong and sonorous words that little by little lost all their substance. Strong in their principles, which they believed to be indestructible, they reigned over us with absolute power. It is necessary that in this dialogue we show ourselves for what we are, imperfect, in the hope that our children will not resemble us but be stronger and better than us. First and foremost, education is a climate. Rilke wrote: “It is not inertia alone that is responsible for human relationships repeating themselves from case to case, indescribably monotonous and unrenewed: it is shyness before any sort of new, unforeseeable experience.” Ginzburg’s essay could be a little uncomfortable for many, precisely because she promotes a renewal of the greatest values and the hardest to uphold—those which the parents

must first exercise in order to bestow. She recommends keeping a distance from children, trusting they will find the small virtues for themselves once they have valued and adopted the big ones. Her “educational climate” invites us to recover that substance that has become diluted in the world and in so many human relations. Ginzburg is one of those rare writers who, like Tarkovsky, values boredom and silence as fundamental tools for creativity. And for her there is only one thing a parent can fruitfully foster in children, and which represents true health and wealth: a vocation. “A vocation, an ardent and exclusive passion for something in which there is no prospect of money, the consciousness of being able to do something better than others, and being able to love this thing more than anything else,” is the most important thing. That is the only way, she thinks, of not being conditioned by money, of being free from it and not feeling ashamed or proud about it. What chance do we have of awakening and stimulating in our children the birth and development of a vocation? We do not have much; however there is one way open to us. The birth and development of a vocation needs space, space and silence, the free silence of space. Our relationship with our children should be a living exchange of thoughts and feelings, but it should also include deep areas of silence: it should be an intimate relationship but it must not violently intrude on their privacy; it should be a just balance between silence and words. This is perhaps the one real chance we have of giving them some kind of help in their search for a vocation - to have a vocation ourselves, to know it, to love it and serve it passionately; because love of life begets a love of life.

subjects that range from historical events to more mythical and religious iconography, and at the same time formally, delving into the history of painting with an amalgam of cubism, futurism, abstract expressionism, and color field painting on each canvas. Collected by the MoMA, Whitney Museum, LA MOCA, SFMOMA, The Lever House Art Collection, and more, Barnaby will discuss how he combines history with art history to create provocative combinations of narrative and form.

This month, Faena Rose welcomes celebrated contemporary artists Sanford Biggers and Barnaby Furnas for insightful conversations that examine the role history plays in their distinct work followed by intimate dinners. SANFORD BIGGERS With a practice that encompasses installation, film, video, drawing, sculpture, original music, and performance, Sanford Biggers creates work that is as visually compelling as it is conceptually complex. Stating, “The material I like the most is history,” Sanford offers new perspectives and associations for established symbols by intentionally complicating issues such as hip hop, Buddhism, politics, identity, and art history. Sanford’s work has been celebrated in exhibitions worldwide and is included in the collections of the MoMA, Whitney Museum, Brooklyn Museum, J.P. Morgan Chase Art Collection, Walker Art Center, The Studio Museum in Harlem, and many more. Our conversation with Sanford will explore the artist’s reinterpretation of existing narratives and the significance of his work within contemporary society.
