  • Robot Heart Foundation Comes to Art Basel

    Robot Heart Foundation Comes to Art Basel

    The Robot Heart Foundation will host a public art showcase featuring a Brandt Brauer Frick Art installation, entitled “Multi Faith Prayer Room,” at The Annex Miami during Art Basel Dec 1st-3rd.

    “Dance music culture has always served the purpose of bringing people together in almost a post-religious cathedral type setting – the club. A very open space, open to freedom of expression. The idea for ‘Multi Faith Prayer Room’ came about when I was at Heathrow Airport in late 2020,” said Daniel Brandt. “I had always seen signs for Multi Faith Prayer Rooms but this time the term stuck with me. I wanted to create a physical space that brings people together, brings different opinions together, without judgment.” 

    The art showcase, created through a significant grant from the Robot Heart Foundation, will be held over three days; from 3:00pm–8:30pm. It will feature three 30 minute shows at 3:30pm – 4:00pm,  4:30pm – 5:00pm and 5:30pm – 6:00pm. There will also be evening parties, from 7:00pm-8:30pm, with a sold out show featuring Afro House DJ Layla Benitez on November 30th. Shows featuring Brandt Brauer Frick will be on December 1st and West African DJ and producer AMÉMÉ will be performing on December 2nd, and play within the 360 surround sound experience.

  • Design Miami/ 2019 returns to Miami Beach at the newly completed Pride Park

    Design Miami/ 2019 returns to Miami Beach at the newly completed Pride Park

    DesignMiami/ returns to Miami Beach next month December 3–8 for its fifteenth edition with some exciting changes. The fair will take place for the first time in the recently completed Pride Park, with its entrance now directly facing the entrance to Art Basel Miami Beach.

    The fair is also opening its doors to the public in new ways: the reconfigured tent has a glass facade at the entrance to house the new Design Forum presented by SCAD, which will be open to the public throughout the week for cultural programming. The discussions taking place in the Design Forum will also be broadcast outside the tent for passersby.

    “We are thrilled to present this edition of Design Miami/ in the newly completed, 6-acre park, named Pride Park. What once was a parking lot has been transformed into an additional public greenspace next to the Miami Beach Botanical Garden,” says Jennifer Roberts, CEO, Design Miami/. 

    Design Miami/ is the global forum for design. Each fair brings together the most influential collectors, gallerists, designers, curators, and critics from around the world in celebration of design culture and commerce. Occurring alongside the Art Basel fairs in Miami, Florida each December and Basel, Switzerland each June, Design Miami/ is the premier venue for collecting, exhibiting, discussing, and creating collectible design.
