OUR FAVORITE MIAMI GALLERIES
Locust Projects | Tania Candiani: Waterbirds: Migratory Sound Flow
Interested in language, sound and the afterlife of obsolete technologies, Tania Candiani has created devices that translate images, shapes, and words into sounds and music by repurposing looms, keyboards, typewriters and other old mechanical devices to create wind, chord or percussion instruments.
Project Room: Cornelius Tulloch: Poetics of Place
Set in the ruins of a Miami Home’s porch space, this installation shadows the dystopian future we face due to current climate gentrification in our city.

Dimensions Variable (DV) | You Are Here
The phrase “You Are Here” is commonly seen on directional signs in commercial buildings, indicating your current location in the surrounding architecture and urban design. However, in this particular case, we want to be present in place.
The artists in this exhibition are both conscious of the here and now by simply working here, but also by the historical mark they left—they’re still here. They inhabit this place and commit to it, leaving behind a network of connections both current and in the past.

Nina Johnson | Katie Stout: Olympia
Olympia, a solo exhibition of entirely new works by New York-based artist and designer Katie Stout, opening December 4th in the Front Gallery. The exhibition is Stout’s fourth solo show with the gallery and her most ambitious yet, marking a new era for the artist. Drawing inspiration from personal developments in her life—including the artist’s move from New York City to the countryside upstate, and the birth of her first daughter, Olympia—the works in the exhibition encompass bronze, glass, and ceramic pieces produced at an unprecedented scale, alongside a body of never-before-seen watercolors.

Primary | OMGWTF
group exhibition featuring Alic Brock, Dustin Emory, Neil Gall, Hell Gette, Ellon Gibbs, Typoe Gran, Piero Penizzotto, Cameron Platter, Hunter Potter, Jeffrey Sincich, Bradley Sizemore, Francisco Tavoni, & Wade Tullier.
In one form or another, this exhibition is hell-driven, sprinting down the asphalt under a new moon, accelerating just before daybreak, hinting at rhythms and war drums, folklore, or nothing more. It is a search for salvation, living through strange times, not judging things out of their control, declaring a mood of disillusion, and watching the decaying city with a cool detachment.
Opens Monday, December 4, 2023 4 - 8 PM

Mindy Solomon Gallery | In Spiritual Light
“In Spiritual Light” is an exhibition about the core of creation and the energy and inherent drive that compel an artist to create. Developmentally, all human beings begin the same chronological, rudimentary journey to image making first the scribble, then, the figure and eventually the symbology of person, place and thing.

Spinello Projects | Barnaby Whitfield: My Bones To Blossom
My Bones To Blossom is deeply informed by Barnaby Whitfield’s wisdom and practice in permaculture, the study of self-sustaining systems that integrate the ecosystem and agriculture for the generation of abundant resources. He uses the ideas of social permaculture to world-build through painting places for queers and nature to coexist and represent each other, exchanging meaning and truth with one another. Whitfield uses history and naturalism to infuse meaning into the subtle use of symbolism in his painting.

Emerson Dorsch | Elisabeth Condon: Tempus Fugit
new solo exhibition by Elisabeth Condon. Known for a style that marries joy in the mark of unfurling ribbons of paint with landscape and more recently with elements of bourgeois decoration, Condon’s new paintings channel freedom found when boundaries break down. She experiments with all number of techniques and applications, creating intricate compositions that layer numerous moves.

Baker—Hall | HOXXOH: Of Light & Shadow
Debuting a new body of work, Hoxxoh continues his exploration of non-traditional mark-making using repurposed garden irrigation tools. Translating his large-scale murals to his studio practice, this series of paintings spark a more intimate observation of the harmonies that exist between gravity, structural integrity, and scale.
Referencing his recent large murals, Hoxxoh’s paintings radiate similar explosive bursts of color and dynamic movement; he distinctly utilizes arches as a recurring motif to convey structure and rhythm to his kinetic painterly applications. In doing so, the artist nods to not only the architectural integrity of the buildings that he paints on but also the symbolism behind the arches themselves, which cross-culturally signify moments of renewal and rites of passage.

KDR | Florida Room No. 3. Group Exhibition
Inspired by Andy Sweet's evocative photographs capturing the influx of Europeans to South Beach in the 1970s and 1980s, "Snow Birds" delves into the enduring aesthetic and cultural significance of the seasonal migration to South Florida. Sweet's images are a historical marker, a window into a period of time that's an integral part of Miami's cultural heritage. The initial wave of "Snow Birds" vividly portrays a time when South Beach became a vibrant melting pot of cultures and lifestyles, leaving a lasting imprint on the region's identity.
