  • Scope Miami Beach 2014

    Scope Miami Beach 2014

    Every year around the beginning of December, social media and blogs light up with previews of art that will be on exhibition at either Art Basel, or at the Scope Art Show in Miami, Florida. Along with the images of art, there are always a few articles here and there about why the art world is loathsome and even why this is the worst time to be an artist ever. While these articles touch on a few ideas that I do agree with, I still think great art is being made and even shown at these festivals. Street art is one good example; take a look at Streeartnews.net for some of the best murals created during the event.

  • Temple of Art at La Luz de Jesus Gallery

    Temple of Art at La Luz de Jesus Gallery

    Since 2012, Allan Amato has been taking photographs of artists, and asking to reinterpret the portraits in their medium of choice. This collaboration is not only unique because it deals with the way in which the photographer sees his subjects, but how the artists themselves interpret and deal with the portrait of themselves. The artists did not compose the photograph, they are just working from it. It’s a great project and one of those exhibitions that must be seen in person. This exhibition marks the final footage to complete a documentary on the project, and Baby Tattoo will release a book mid-exhibition. As quoted in the press release “Rarely are we given an opportunity to confront our perceptions of reality and self; this exhibition will illuminate the universal tension between the pursuit of our vision and the demands of a critical and implacable world.”
