Art Basel Miami Beach 2010
Miami. Art Kabinett program at Art Basel Miami Beach 2010, opening tomorrow
2 December, promises to be an exciting mix of tightly focused exhibitions within the show, including thematic group exhibitions and solo shows from both emerging artists and historical figures.

For Art Basel Miami Beach 2010 the Selection Committee has chosen 21 galleries to present Art Kabinett - separate areas within the booths of the Art Galleries sector, providing a space to exhibit solo shows and thematic group exhibitions, spotlighting the curatorial skills of the gallerists.

The 21 projects in this sector of the show feature a wide array of artists, ranging from emerging artists such as Valentin Carron, Nathan Hylden and Markus Schinwald to historical figures like Otto Muehl, Franz Erhard Walter and Richard Diebenkorn. Group shows include the exhibitions “Marx & Modernism: The New Europe" and “Zaha Hadid and Suprematism".
Art Miami Curator Julia Draganovic presents video show
“In What We Trust”

Miami. Curated by Julia Draganovic, the show “In What We Trust” gathers a variety of works in which artists show how people, follow sets of beliefs without further questioning. It reveals expectations that depend on cultural, sociological and personal experiences and may help discover some blind spots in our field of vision. ”In What We Trust” is the third video program sponsored by Art Miami. It follows the fair’s well-received 2009 Art Video | New Media Lounge, also curated by Julia Draganovic.

Patrick Charpenel of Guadalajara, Mexico curates Art Public for the second time
Miami. This year’s Art Public features 9 projects by internationally renowned artists from seven countries. The projects will be installed in the outdoor public spaces of Miami Beach, within close proximity to the Oceanfront area and the Miami Beach Convention Center.

The 2010 edition of Art Public will present works that engage directly with the viewer, interrupting the daily routine of passersby in poetic and surprising ways.

Most of the works are site-specific and commissioned for Art Basel Miami Beach, including the projects by François Bucher and Minerva Cuevas; Fyodor Pavlov Andreevich will present a new site-specific performance.

Miami. Leila Taghinia-Milani Heller (LTMH) Gallery will show the work of artist and filmmaker Shoja Azari in a solo exhibition at the new ZOOM Contemporary Art Fair which runs concurrently with Art Basel Miami Beach.  The first edition of ZOOM, which will focus on contemporary Middle Eastern art, will be held at the South Seas Hotel at 1751 Collins Avenue in Miami Beach.

The exhibition by Shoja Azari will feature Hell Is No Joke, a video installation and a series of photographs, informed by the timelessness of Renaissance art seen through the lens of contemporary existential anxiety. The artist is interested in questioning what this glorified period can mean; if in fact, there will be a return to the currents of irrational ism, political and/or religious fervor.

The new video work, to be projected on two adjoining walls, will create a powerful yet disturbing experience:  famous Old Master paintings burning, including Caravaggio’s The Incredulity of Saint Thomas and Rembrandt’s Abraham’s Sacrifice of Isaac. As the paintings burn, the viewer hears the preachings of evangelical radicals talking about hell as a reality. The subjects of the Old Master paintings evoke strong sentiments such as doubt and faith.  To accompany the new video work, three photographs, also titled, Hell is No Joke, will include Goya’s Third of May, 1808, in the process of being burned.

In addition, the exhibition will include four photographs from Azari’s Interrupted series. Using a cinematic approach, the sumptuous series of staged photographs tells a story about a mullah, an odalisque, a young boy and an Islamic militiaman and comments obliquely on clergy, corruption, politics, youth, fear and uncertainty. 

Iranian-born Shoja Azari has lived in New York City since 1983.  His films and video installations have been screened and exhibited widely around the world.  Most recently, he had a solo exhibition last spring at Leila Taghinia-Milani Heller (LTMH) Gallery, which was widely reviewed to great acclaim. His video work has been seen in solo gallery exhibitions in London; Turin, Italy; and Köln, Germany, and at art fairs including Art Basel, Switzerland, and ARCO, Madrid.  Since 1997, he has collaborated with Shirin Neshat on film and video installations including Women Without Men, which won the Silver Lion for best director at the 2009 Venice Film Festival.  He has also collaborated with Shahram Karimi on video paintings, which project video on painted surfaces.

PARIS. With this exhibition designed specially for Paris Photo, Leica Camera evokes some of the photographic and human encounters developed over the course of festivals and of the Oskar Barnack Prize awarded to young photo reporters since 1979… 12 images by 12 photographers chosen with the heart's certainty : timeless, intense, disturbing, militant, dreamlike, cinematographic…

Leica Camera honours the immense talent of these photographers : Jacques Borgetto, Jane Evelyn Atwood, Jeffrey Silverthorne, Antoine Agoudjian, Stéphane Duroy, Stanley Greene, JH Engström, Gilles Ouaki, Klavdij Sluban, Philippe Bordas, Alain Willaume and Dolorès Marat.

Henri Cartier-Bresson said "The Leica can be like a passionate kiss, a pistol shot or an analyst's couch." Plunging into these images, Leica Camera invites the viewer to fully experience this positive complicity.
