Margarita Cano: 90 Years
On the occasion of her 90th year, NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale celebrates the life and work of Cuban-born, Miami-based artist Margarita Cano.
This exhibition will be a testament to Cano’s remarkable life, a record of her transition from Cuba to America, and from scientist, to art services librarian, and finally, to a painter of dreams. This exhibition will encapsulate Cano’s multi-disciplinary practice as a self-taught artist, whose creativity has manifested through wondrous miniature books, votive portraits, landscapes paintings, prints and photographs. Cano’s art is a portal into a celestial world, in which memories are transformed into sacred visions of life and loss. This exhibition is curated by NSU Art Museum Director and Chief Curator Bonnie Clearwater with Ariella Wolens, Bryant-Taylor Curator. Exhibitions and programs at NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale are made possible in part by a challenge grant from the David and Francie Horvitz Family Foundation. Funding is also provided by the City of Fort Lauderdale, AutoNation, Community Foundation of Broward, the Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommended by the Broward Cultural Council and Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau, the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Arts and Culture and the Florida Council on Arts and Culture.

Beyond the O.K. Corral: David Levinthal, Wilson J. Tang, and YumeGO
The exhibit will become downloadable and accessible anywhere via the YumeGO app beginning during Miami Art Week (November 30, 2021).
Beyond the O.K. Corral is an interactive Augmented Reality exhibition by renowned photographer David Levinthal, Wilson J. Tang (special effects art director, video gaming designer, and a founder of YumeGO, the first AR “Experience Browser”) and the YumeGO team, commissioned by NSU Art Museum. The AR exhibition allows participants to step into Levinthal’s iconic photograph Gunfight at the O.K. Corral (2014) that was inspired by the Western movies of Levinthal’s youth in the 1950s. The exhibit utilizes museum-grade scanning technology and augmented reality to create a game-like 3D immersive diorama for people to enter. It is enhanced with Levinthal’s commentary, giving participants an insight into the creative thinking of the artist, encouraging them to find their own meaning beyond the surface imagery. More than just passively observing a photograph from a fixed point of view, the AR experience gives viewers freedom to determine their own point of views and heightens their awareness to the power of the image to become a part of cultural memory and mythology. Levinthal and Wilson conceived this project as an evolution from the traditional single point of view of photography into a new medium more suitable for our digital social era where we are hyper-saturated with infinite points of views. Interactivity further enhances the experience, turning the viewer into an active participant in the act of creation. In addition to showcasing the AR experience, the NSU Art Museum exhibition documents the production process and features the original diorama that was the model for the AR experience. Sponsored by Ming Chan. Exhibitions and programs at NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale are made possible in part by a challenge grant from the David and Francie Horvitz Family Foundation.

The Art of Assemblage
This exhibition features sculptures composed of found objects and that are distinguished by the unlikely combinations of repurposed materials that constitute their form.
In the practice of assemblage, materials such as scrap metal, broken shells, tattered fabrics and discarded toys are salvaged and brought together in unexpected combinations, creating poetic abstractions of everyday life. The exhibition is drawn primarily from the Museum’s collection and includes recent acquisitions to the Museum’s permanent collection by artists John Outterbridge, Vanessa German, Pablo Cano, and a collaborative work by Jorge Pardo and Jason Rhoades. It also includes works by Christian Holstad, Ernesto Neto and Jessica Stockholder, and significant artworks from the Museum’s collections of African and CoBrA art. This exhibition is curated by Ariella Wolens, Bryant-Taylor Curator, NSU Art Museum.

Jared McGriff: Where We Are You
NSU Art Museum presents the first solo museum exhibition of Miami artist Jared McGriff from November 20 through February 13, 2022. Titled Jared McGriff: Where We Are You, this exhibition showcases McGriff’s dreamlike narratives that remain timeless even as he integrates his family’s history into the realities of the present.
This exhibition contrasts paintings that suggest contemporary snapshots of the artist’s present with paintings that conjure the real and imagined experiences of his family’s migration from the rural south to the rural west of Oklahoma and California. This juxtaposition of past and present reflects how contemporary times are shaped by the historical. The exhibition’s title Where We Are You encapsulates notions of African Ubuntu philosophy where the individual becomes whole through the experience of the group. McGriff’s composition of single and grouped figures embodies the guiding principle for many early cultures that each individual’s actions impact others and society. Jared McGriff: Where We Are You is curated by Bonnie Clearwater, NSU Art Museum Director and Chief Curator. |

The New Woman: Recent Acquisitions
On the occasion of a recent gift of works by William J. Glackens and his circle by the Sansom Foundation, NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale presents The New Woman. The title refers to the phrase which came to be used in the late 19th century, to characterize the newly present women of the middle and upper class who were beginning to participate in urban life. At the same moment in time, Modernism was taking shape in both art and society, and women were beginning to stake a position in both realms. Glackens and his wife, artist Edith Dimock, were very much engaged in this evolution of the role of women, and actively participated in the Women’s Suffrage movement. Their representation of female figures was shaped by the vantage of their social consciousness. This exhibition depicts women on both ends of the societal spectrum during the Gilded Age of America, and it is between these two spheres of the domestic and the bohemian, that the New Woman of the twentieth century would take form. The New Woman is curated by NSU Art Museum Bryant-Taylor Curator Ariella Wolens.
Exhibitions and programs at NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale are made possible in part by a challenge grant from the David and Francie Horvitz Family Foundation. Funding is also provided by the City of Fort Lauderdale, AutoNation, Community Foundation of Broward, the Broward County Board of County Commissioners as recommended by the Broward Cultural Council and Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau, the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Arts and Culture and the Florida Council on Arts and Culture.

Thomas Bils: Still Cheaper Than Paying
This exhibition is the first solo museum exhibition for Miami-based artist Thomas Bils. It features works from his ongoing series, Still Cheaper Than Paying. In this series, artifacts of the artist’s financial obligations, such as parking citations and insurance bills, transcend their monetary status by being transformed into drawings that are sold for the exact price of the original bill through social media or by commission. The crowdsourcing of his drawings on bills is an essential element of this project as it brings the artist closer to his goal of living at net-zero. The title Still Cheaper Than Paying refers to the original catalyst for the project — Bils’ sentiments about receiving parking tickets — that it was cheaper to pay the fines than it was to pay the meter.
The exhibition, which also includes paintings Bils based on some of these drawings, will be installed in NSU Art Museum’s William J. Glackens Wing, where it will be shown in tandem with the exhibition From Pencil to Paint, which highlights the influence of Glackens’ illustrations and drawings on his paintings. For Glackens, his illustrations for magazines and books was a financial transaction, which supported his life as a painter. Thomas Bils: Still Cheaper Than Paying is curated by Bonnie Clearwater, Director and Chief Curator and Ariella Wolens, Bryant-Taylor Curator, NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale. Thomas Bils was born in 1993 in Melbourne, Florida. He moved to Miami to study painting at New World School of The Arts, receiving a BFA in 2017. He lives and works in Miami as an artist in residence at Bakehouse Art Complex. He was a 2019 Oolite Arts Home and Away resident artist at Anderson Ranch in Snowmass, CO. |

William J. Glackens: From Pencil to Paint
Trained as an illustrator, William J. Glackens (1870-1938) distinguished himself with his lively and engaging drawings that were published in avidly read American newspapers, magazines, and journals such as The New York Herald, Collier’s, and The Saturday Evening Post. He turned to painting as a profession in 1897 and soon became one of America’s most celebrated and progressive painters. Yet, Glackens never abandoned his keen interest in drawing and created some of his most distinctive illustrations as late as the 1910s.
William J. Glackens: From Pencil to Paint, a new exhibition that premieres at NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale June 15, 2019, features over 100 of the artist’s works from the 1890s – 1930s, and highlights Glackens’ roles as illustrator and painter. By presenting drawings from the beginning to end of his career, and juxtaposing them with specific paintings for which they were made, the exhibition sheds new light on Glackens’ lifelong commitment to the field in which he first excelled and his uncanny ability to capture specific gestures, places and significant historical events such as the Spanish American War. Glackens’ reputation as a painter was established when he and seven colleagues, some of whom also began their careers as illustrators, (George Luks, Everett Shinn, John Sloan), organized an exhibition of their work at a New York gallery in 1908 in protest of their rejection from annual exhibitions organized by the National Academy. These artists’ depictions of everyday life in the modern city, along with those by Arthur B. Davies, Robert Henri, Ernest Lawson and Maurice Prendergast, included beggars, immigrants, tenements, and figures of the demi-monde, subjects considered distasteful by Academy jurors. The group’s 1908 exhibition created a sensation, and its artists, who became known as “The Eight,” had an influential role in the course of American art history. During his lifetime, Glackens made thousands of preparatory sketches and drawings in charcoal, conté crayon, gouache, graphite, ink, pastel, and watercolor. Some of the sketches in the exhibition include casually placed figures or objects made of lively, simple lines, while others are detailed depictions of architectural, figural and landscape forms where light and dark establish volume and illusionistic space. Juxtaposing more than 30 Glackens paintings with examples of his preparatory efforts for them provides insight into his artistic process. It also allows viewers to explore the significant differences and similarities between his drawings and oils, his skills using different mediums, and the extent to which he relied on drawing for his work in gouache and oil. Glackens was sent to Cuba by McClure’s Magazine in 1898 to document the Spanish American War. Among the hundreds of drawings, he made, five on view in the exhibition were selected for their poignancy in conveying the actions and emotions of soldiers at war. His gouache, The Night after San Juan, dramatically illustrates the aftermath of a battle as soldiers hold their rifles in defense as lifeless bodies lie near them. All works in the exhibition are drawn from the Museum’s world-renowned William J. Glackens art and archival collection bequeathed to the Museum by his son, Ira Glackens, and his wife Nancy, at the time of his death in 1990, and subsequently by the Sansom Foundation founded in the 1950s by Ira and his wife. |

Joel Gresham: Life as a Canvas
The Work of World-Renowned Fine Artist Joel Gresham Set for January Showing at Island SPACE Caribbean Museum
Heralding the new year with a bold step into the world of fine art, Island SPACE Caribbean Museum will kick off its 2022 calendar with a one-man show by world-renown fine artist Joel Gresham. Joel Gresham: Life as a Canvas will run from January 15th through March 13th, with an opening reception on January 15th from 6 to 9p.m. The collection of Gresham’s work spans the decades of his 42-year career. The energy and contained movement of figures pictured in his work are a direct link to his Caribbean heritage and a contagious beat of the region’s artistic and musical traditions. “As an expressionist, I am moved emotionally through a creative process of the way I see the world… allowing me to use my imagination to experiment on this canvas we call earth,” said Gresham. With a fine art education from Atlanta, Georgia, his work has brought him significant acclaim over the years. Gresham’s pieces can be found in public and private collections, including those of Oprah Winfrey, Quincy Jones and the late Muhammad Ali. His personal roots include connections to Jamaica and Haiti, as well as time spent living in Jamaica and Cuba. “Joel Gresham’s voluptuous human figures, with their vivid movement, vibrancy, obscured faces and distinctive dispositions are an emotionally charged joy to behold,” said Island SPACE co-founder Calibe Thompson. “Each image is intrinsically Caribbean, conjuring the imagination. The collection, which also includes pop art and abstract pieces, offers a perfect start to our upcoming ‘Year of the Caribbean Story.’ We look forward to art-lovers across the spectrum visiting to enjoy it.” Access to the gallery is included with general museum entry. Visit islandspacefl.org to learn about this and other activities and exhibitions at Island SPACE Caribbean Museum. Donations, sponsorships, memberships and volunteer commitments are encouraged. |

Introspective: A Reckoning of the Soul
Introspective: A Reckoning of the Soul presents the work of South Florida artists who invite us to collectively pause and look deeper into ourselves during this pivotal moment of social unrest in recognition of systemic injustices. This exhibition asks us to imagine what it looks like to embrace the layered and conflicting stories that have shaped our daily lives through the centering of our local communities, Black experiences, and histories. The purpose and power of art is one of connection, giving us the opportunity to gain a greater understanding of each other and ourselves.
It is an examination of the individual and the collective seeking to live a life that is worth the living. Through this exhibition program artists and audiences are joined in the question of how we have come to be in this place and time – and where do we go from here. |

T. Eliott Mansa: On Memory and the Radical Black Imagination
The Art and Culture Center/Hollywood is pleased to present in partnership with Oolite Arts, On Memory and the Radical Black Imagination, a solo exhibition by Miami-based artist T. Eliott Mansa. This exhibition in Gallery 2 at the Center is the second of our Oolite Collaborations series with Oolite Arts.
The work of T. Eliott Mansa sources and articulates ritual practices from West African, Caribbean, and Southern religious and vernacular sculptural traditions as he incorporates everyday materials often used as roadside memorials. Objects, such as plastic toys, baby dolls, stuffed animals, and fake flowers are often left as grave markers to identify and honor the site of a victim lost in violence. Mansa’s assemblage practice poetically evokes mourning and loss, encouraging a conversation surrounding racism and Black deaths. Mansa’s latest black monochrome series emote a dark, somber experience. Large scale toys jut off the canvas and into the physical space of the gallery. These highly complicated pieces are constructed to feel off-kilter and unsettled while at the same time connected. While conjuring feelings of shock of sudden, and preventable, loss, they also allow space for grief, inviting us to look deep into the individual elements that comprise each sculpture and ultimately, to look deeper within ourselves. |

Shifting Lines
Luis Garcia-Nerey, through a series of abstract paintings and site-specific installations throughout the Museum, invites viewers to confront and explore one of the most basic theories of human existence: the idea of the Self and the Other. His work consists of constructed environments that often starkly juxtapose each other, showing the chasms that exist from one person’s lived reality to the next. Viewers are able to navigate these physical spaces and draw relevant conclusions themselves. In Shifting Lines, Garcia-Nerey literally leaves the door open to interpretation on subjects such as identity, inequality, and community. Visitors will be able to ask the artist questions at the reception and during an artist talk and other events to be held at the Museum.

States of Matter, by Susan Narduli, will feature a mirrored installation where visitors of all ages will be enveloped in a light-based transcendent immersive art experience. She imagines a future based on the synergistic evolution of physical and virtual environments, creating projects that make visible a new typology of public space. MAREMAGNVM, by Edison Peñafiel, focuses on video and immersive, site-specific, multimedia installations that create surreal echoes of our world. Informed by his own life, Peñafiel centers the migrant as a subject. While his early photography focuses on deconstruction and perception, absurdity, and politics, his shift towards multi-media installations has deepened his engagement with socio-economic and political themes. |
