In the twenty works in the exhibition, there are acrylics on canvas, digital chromogenic prints, found objects, photographs, mixed media, engravings and installatio ns, artists examine the question of deconstruction.
The different ways in which these artists present deconstruction in their works open a window that allows us to take a step back and examine the current world [1945900] 4] carefully, notes a museum statement.
"These 12 renowned Miami artists are very much aware of the world we live in. Miami itself is their point of departure, and as an artistic and creative community, Miami serves as a catalyst for this new exhibition." , says Galpin, curator of the exhibition and chief curator of FIU Art Frost Museum
Four of the artists, Christopher Carter, Yanira Collado, Gonzalo Fuenmayor and Pepe Mar, have created works specifically for the exhibition commemorating the 10th anniversary of the Frost Museum at the FIU
Fuenmayor will create a monumental spire drawing of 20 feet (6.1 meters) entitled "Happy Hour", while Mar will set up a tribute installation to the late artist Craig Coleman, who is remembered for his alter ego, Varela.
Collado titled his work for the tenth anniversary of the museum "Fuku, you make you do not know me" and Carter so n "Intercultural trap".
The subtitle of this exhibition is derived from the prophetic messages of Guy Debord in his book "The Society of the Spectacle" (1967), in which he warned against "you n a future world in which l? social interaction would be overly affected by images that would prevent us from having direct personal contact. "
" Now that the museum begins a new decade, we continue to elevate our mission more and more by defining L & # 39, evolution of art and culture in Miami with a global perspective that celebrates the vision of Florida International University, "notes Pomeroy
