South Florida’s rich cultural tapestry offers endless opportunities to experience and support the Arts. I encourage everyone to take advantage of these opportunities, which include everything from the Miami Ballet and Art Basel, to the Palm Beach Opera and any number of theatrical venues throughout the area.

He was not the only one to paint Ms. Rubinstein, and this show includes portraits by Picasso, Man Ray, and Warhol. Included are paintings by Miró and Chagall, and selections from her fine jewelry and couture clothing collections. Rubinstein was an extraordinary collector of African art, which is featured here along with many of the Ellie Nadelman sculptures that she acquired.

MOCA exterior. THE MUSEUM OF Photo: Ivon David Rojas CONTEMPORARY ART (MOCA) opened its state-of-the-art building to the public in February 1996. The 23,000 square foot structure was designed by the internationally acclaimed architect Charles Gwathmey of Gwathmey Siegel, New York, who worked in conjunction with the Miami firm of Gelabert-Navia to create an exquisite space in which to experience art. The Museum of Contemporary Art expanded from the original Center of Contemporary Art, which was inaugurated in 1981 in a modest single gallery space. The museum is a site for discovering new artists, contemplating the work of contemporary masters, and learning about our living cultural heritage. The Museum of Contemporary Art is known for its provocative and innovative exhibitions, and for seeking a fresh approach in examining the art of our time. The museum maintains an active exhibition schedule, presenting 8 to 10 exhibitions annually.

SHIFTING THE PARADIGM: THE ART OF GEORGE EDOZIE DECEMBER 2, 2014 – FEBRUARY 2, 2015 THE MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART, North Miami (MOCA), South Florida’s oldest and only museum dedicated exclusively to contemporary art, will kick off Art Basel week in Miami with a thought provoking exhibition featuring contemporary artist, George Edozie. The show, Shifting the Paradigm is designed to tear down aging but still prevalent concepts surrounding the creation, consumption, and interpretation of contemporary. For curator Pr. Nzegwu, “through form, color, design consciousness, and containment, artistic endeavor unleashes the embodied powers of life to dissolve blockages and remake reality.” While George Edozie is not an expressionist, he shares a good number of the formal characteristics of the “fauvist” and “post-impressionist” painters at the turn of the 20th century: Cézanne, Matisse, Gauguin, Van Gogh. In different ways, these artists went beyond the manner in which impressionism focused on reproducing the impression caused by the physical world.

The Nortons were actively interested in fine arts and developed a sizable collection of paintings and sculpture. An industrialist who headed the Acme Steel Company in Chicago, Mr. Norton retired in 1939 to make his permanent home in West Palm Beach, Florida. Upon moving south, the Nortons decided to share their collection with the public. The Museum Collection consists of 7,000 works of art concentrated in the following departments: European, American, Chinese, Contemporary, and Photography.

created Picasso’s Muses, on view Nov. 6, 2014 – Feb. 15, 2015. The artist drew inspiration from many sources during his long life and career, including French café society, the struggling poor, live models, and especially girlfriends and mistresses – which Picasso’s Muses illustrates. “Picasso returns again and again to his female companions as a source of pictorial and sculptural inspiration,” explains Jerry Dobrick, Curatorial Associate for European Art. The centerpiece of this boutique exhibition is Woman with Wrist Watch, from 1932, a monumental work inspired by Marie-Thérèse Walter, with whom Picasso was in a relationship at the time. Also in the exhibition is another work from the Tête de femme series, as well as works from the Museum Collection.

FUTURE BROWN: VERNÁCULO FEATURING MALUCA ONGOING VERNÁCULO COMES FROM Future Brown's debut album on Warp Records slated for release February 23/24, 2015. Appropriating the advertising language of global beauty brands like L’Oreal and Revlon, “Vernáculo” is an exercise in capitalist surrealism. The video first debuted live at the museum’s official Art Basel Miami Beach celebration, PAMM Presents Future Brown featuring Kelela, A DIS Magazine + THV Entertainment Production. IN THE SCULPTURE GARDEN: JEDD NOVATT ONGOING BY THE EARLY 1970s, works of minimalism had come to dominate the landscape of public sculpture in the United States. Characterized by reductive, geometric forms fabricated in raw industrial materials like Corten steel and aluminum, its ideal products represent an exploration of the essential nature of sculptural practice and experience, engaging viewers in a carefully organized phenomenology of volume, weight, mass, and theatricalized viewing space. For the last decade, Parisbased American artist Jedd Novatt has been employing and manipulating key minimalist visual and material tropes – the cube, unyielding medium, towering scale – in order to evolve the now long-stalled project beyond its traditional static and reflexive nature. Chaos Bizkaia (2012, bronze) and Chaos SAS (2013, stainless steel) – twisting, slipping, seemingly unstable stacks of monumental open rectangles – activate the lush tropical landscape of PAMM’s new sculpture garden with implied motion.

These works will be augmented by additional prints and objects loaned from the Holding Capital Group collection, which has been carefully assembled over the last 30 years and illuminates the significance of printmaking within the contemporary art context. Beyond the Limited Life of Painting will examine more than 50 years of printmaking, tracing its historic importance to public debates in the 1930s and 1940s to its emergence as a valued artistic medium in the Pop art movement of the 1950s and 1960s and through to its role in today’s creative production.

The first of these installations is Konstantin Grcic’s Netscape. The second, Buckminster Fuller’s 24-foot Fly’s Eye Dome, was featured at Design Miami/ 2011 as a satellite exhibition in collaboration with the Miami Design District. Fly’s Eye Dome, which was a prototype of Buckminster Fuller’s original design for a fully functional, air-deployable, off-the-grid temporary dwelling, was originally presented as a Design Miami/ satellite exhibition in the Miami Design District called Architecting the Future: Buckminster Fuller & Norman Foster. A longtime Fuller collector and enthusiast, Foster recreated Fuller’s futuristic Dymaxion Car and generously loaned Dymaxion 4 to be exhibited alongside the dome, which had been acquired and restored by Craig Robins. Buckminster Fuller was an artist, architect, and evolutionary strategist. PROJECT GALLERY: GARY SIMMONS NOVEMBER 14, 2014 – OCTOBER 4, 2015 PÉREZ ART MUSEUM Miami has commissioned Gary Simmons (b.1964, New York) to create an ambitious new work for the museum’s stunning double-height project gallery. The New Yorkbased artist will create a large, ephemeral mural painting directly on the gallery’s back wall, which measures 30 feet high by 29 feet wide. Simmons is best known for his enigmatic compositions that consist of deceptively simple motifs rendered atop broad fields of monochromatic pigment. He extracts these motifs from a variety of archival and pop culture sources, arriving at each selection through an intensive research process. A single work by Simmons is capable of evoking a multiplicity of meanings, referencing a buried episode in the painful history of race relations in the United States, for example, at the same time that it draws from the artist’s childhood memories. Simmons is known for his use of an eerie erasure effect, which he achieves by blurring his drawings with his hands. Recalling the look of chalk on blackboards, the effect reinforces the mysterious quality of Simmons’s imagery, while

Guerrier’s oeuvre is expansive in its engagement with the urban environment, art history, and materials, and this exhibition will bring together a selection of work from the last decade of his career alongside new work produced for this presentation. PROJECT GALLERY: MARIO GARCÍA TORRES DECEMBER 2, 2014 – APRIL 19, 2015 R.R. AND THE EXPANSION OF THE TROPICS is a project developed by Mexico City-based artist Mario García Torres (b.1975, Monclova, Mexico) specifically for Pérez Art Museum Miami in which a number of seemingly unrelated subjects, such as Robert Rauschenberg, climate change, and Florida, are threaded together to form a series of conceptual Mario García Torres reviewing Miami Herald’s Tropic from and political December 30, 1979. questions. Photo: Carlota Pérez-Jofre García Torres has long been interested in exploring little-known issues within recent art history and in addressing parallel subjects that find new meanings and contexts through his careful juxtapositions. This project will create a number of gestures, including photographic documentation, film, music, and other types of information displays.

TÀPIES: FROM WITHIN FEBRUARY 6 – MAY 3, 2015 TÀPIES: FROM WITHIN is a major historical survey that features a selection of more than 50 large-scale paintings and sculptures, representing diverse moments from throughout Antoni Tàpies’s (1923–2012) career. These include early examples from 1945 through to recent works created in 2011 – the year prior to his death. The exhibition explores the Spanish artist’s use of unusual materials and forms and the development of his unique visual language, which earned him an international reputation as one of the most successful abstract painters of his generation. Curated by former Tate Director Vincente Todolí, this retrospective offers a unique view into Tàpies’s groundbreaking practice, which fused impoverished materials with symbols of Eastern and Western culture to create dense works covered with graffiti-like gestures. His alchemical practice mixed spiritual and existential questions with unique material investigations of surface, mark-making, and found objects. The exhibition presents an intimate and unusual view of his oeuvre through a selection of works drawn exclusively from his own private collection and that of the Fundació Antoni Tàpies. PROJECT GALLERY: DIEGO BIANCHI FEBRUARY 19 – JULY 26, 2015 INTERESTED IN EROSION, entropy, decadence, and destruction, Diego Bianchi (b.1969, Buenos Aires, Argentina) is producing a new large-scale installation for PAMM’s project gallery adjacent to the museum’s main entrance. Bianchi is known for his multipart sculptural projects using found and manipulated materials, including defunct technologies or recently discarded commercial products, which reflects his interest in ideas of the unclean, the abject, and the wastefulness of contemporary commodity culture. With an underlying sense of loss and an unusual beauty, his dynamic assemblages involve binding, burning, or cementing together these worn objects, creating textured surfaces that dialogue with the work of Antoni Tàpies, concurrently on view at PAMM. His project for PAMM specifically engages elements that reference the cultural and material landscape of Miami.

VICTORIA GITMAN: DESIRING EYE FEBRUARY 26 – MAY 31, 2015 PÉREZ ART MUSEUM Miami presents a survey of the work of Victoria Gitman (b.1972, Buenos Aires; lives in Hallandale, FL). Gitman creates astonishingly naturalistic oil paintings abounding with Victoria Gitman, Untitled, 2013, Oil on board, sensuality and 9 5/8 x 11 inches. Courtesy of Garth Greenan Gallery, New York conceptual sophistication. The exhibition features 19 works drawn from four phases in the artist’s career, spanning 14 years of highly disciplined production. Set against shallow backgrounds of neutral color, Gitman’s depictions of necklaces, beaded purses, and fur purses make a powerful impact that belies their small scale and banal subject matter. The artist paints the images from items that she finds in thrift stores, flea markets, and online sources for vintage accessories. In Gitman’s hands, these inexpensive objects are transmuted into things of beauty, exuding luxury and refinement. Rendered from life (never from photographs), they emit the rich aura that one associates with still life paintings by the Old Masters. The exhibition culminates with Gitman’s stunning “Beauties” – a set of oil paintings on panel that reproduce graphite drawings on paper by the great French Neoclassical painter and draughtsman Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1780–1867). These diminutive portraits feature elegant young women whose haunting eyes

meet the viewer’s gaze dead on. The series provides a disarming counterpoint to Gitman’s still life paintings while underscoring the tensions that animate her work, in which decadence vies with restraint, humility with ostentation, tradition with contemporaneity, and precision with beauty. EUGENIO ESPINOZA: UNRULY SUPPORTS (1970–1980) MARCH 19 – AUGUST 23, 2015 EUGENIO ESPINOZA: UNRULY SUPPORTS (1970–1980) features over 50 exceptional works including paintings, photographs, sculptures, postcards, and documentation of performances and interventions by Eugenio Espinoza (b.1950, Caracas, Venezuela). The exhibition focuses on his practice during the decade of the 1970s, highlighting Espinoza´s significance within the Latin American avant-garde of that period. Currently living in Florida, Espinoza is known for his nonfigurative, humorous, and irreverent manipulations of grid forms that he began developing in the late1960s. These works were produced as a reaction to the dominant tendencies of geometric abstraction and Kinetic art in Venezuela during these decades. Unruly Supports (1970–1980) traces these seminal works, which include his large Impenetrable (1972) – an installation that subverted the modernist cannon, challenged Kinetic art, and engaged post-minimalist strategies – and explores Espinoza’s active involvement in the evolution of abstraction during the post-war period. The title of the exhibition refers to the countless experiments Espinoza made to produce his emblematic black grid supports, as he folded, stretched, and cut to this geometric form, contaminating this iconic symbol of modern art. IMAN ISSA APRIL 2 – OCTOBER 4, 2015 IMAN ISSA (b. 1979, Cairo, Egypt) explores the relationship between history, memory, language, and objects through multimedia works. Creating installations comprised of multiple related works, she questions the ability of sculpture and imagery to communicate concrete ideas. Issa’s large-scale projects have used three-dimensional forms and text to interrogate the validity of commemorative monuments in the face of shifting sociopolitical

landscapes, particularly in her native Egypt, and more recent projects investigate historical works of art through poetic descriptions and interpretative forms. Issa’s modest but beautifully crafted objects, short videos, snapshot-like photographs, and accompanying texts use language and juxtaposition to create ambiguous but resonant tableaux. For Pérez Art Museum Miami, she will present a recent project alongside a new commission. PROJECT GALLERY: SHANA LUTKER MAY 7 – SEPTEMBER 13, 2015 SINCE 2012, SHANA LUTKER (b.1978, Northport, New York) has been researching the Surrealist movement. Among the most important European avant-garde groups of the 20th century, the Surrealists explored the unconscious mind and creative expressions that were tied to the irrational. They were also, as revealed by Lutker’s research, prone to physical, public fights incited by intellectual arguments and personal slights. Lutker has identified seven fights that she is investigating through sculptural installations. She has realized two of these projects: the first one in three parts, including gallery presentations in Los Angeles Shana Lutker, 11 bis, 2013, Chromed and Zurich as well as a steel, leather, 42" H x 28" W x 21" D. Photo Credit: Robert Wedemeye performance at Performa 13 in New York, and one as part of the 2014 Whitney Biennial. For Pérez Art Museum Miami, Lutker will realize the third work in her series. Her installation will respond to the architecture of PAMM’s unique auditorium space. In addition to her newly commissioned artwork for the project gallery, Lutker will debut a performative lecture focused on the Surrealist fight she has been researching.
