Still from Yael Bartana’s “Inferno.” Everyone has been gushing about the Herzog & de Meuron-designed Perez Art Museum Miami, or PAMM — and they should be. Although still not finished, with outdoor construction still underway, it would not be an exaggeration to say that this museum is already the most spectacular one in the country, if […]

Nir Hod’s “snow globe” at Paul Kasmin gallery, Art Basel Miami Beach. The weekend awaits for all the Art Basel fair-going that you haven’t done. So, time for a quick run-down of what you may or may not want to see in a limited amount of time. At the main Art Basel fair at the […]

Victoria Fu will be at the Emerson Dorsch booth at the Untitled fair. The previews have already started, although many of the Art Basel week fairs don’t technically open until Thursday.

“Recalcitrance, Berlin, 1926” Much of our view today of Jewish life in Eastern Europe and Germany in the first part of the last century has been reduced to images of the Holocaust, of people waiting for trains to death camps, and of death camps.

The cast of “Homeland Refuge” at the Farside Gallery The images of devastation that have recently come out of the Philippines are yet another sad reminder of our precarious situation, a reminder that both natural and man-made disasters can upend our lives and send us to tent cities to scrounge out an existence.

Detail of installation of Enrique Martinez Celaya at Snitzer Gallery. Here’s an interesting turn of events: Fred Snitzer will now be representing Enrique Martinez Celaya. They were once neighbors in the heart of Wynwood: the sprawling, slate-gray Whale and Star studio and exhibition/lecture space of Martinez Celaya sat next to Snitzer’s gallery, which at one […]

Table for two on a budget. After snaking around numerous, well-appointed displays and installations filled with fascinating cooking equipment; beautiful, artsy dishes and cutlery; videos of restaurant design and other food-related “offerings,” on opening night of “Tapas: Spanish Design For Food,” you ended up at an interactive performance from the great Catalan mixed-media and food […]

Manny Prieres at Bass Museum. The exhibit “Time” that just opened at the Bass Museum has a number of interesting elements to it, including the room of queer curiosities from Hernan Bas. But make sure you spend some time in the room with works from Manny Prieres, his first solo outing at a museum, “It […]

Peggy Levison Nolan’s “Untitled (glass).” “Tales in the Ground Glass: Adventures of a Badass Grandma” is one of the best titles for an exhibit. Ever.
