Miami Art Museum and Freedom Tower
Canadian artists Cardiff and Miller pierce the hearts and alter the spectator's
consciousness by continually breaking open internal visionary worlds and fantasies
in the eleven multi-media installations which compose "The
Killing Machine and Other Stories "
whose U.S. Premiere in Miami presents a retrospective of their work from
1995 to 2007.
The Euphoria of a Sleepless Night
We have all suffered sleepless nights: nights of anxiety; unrequited desire;
and pacing the streets alone! By contrast this fascinating and profoundly stimulating
creation of the "cultural takeover" of Miami "Sleepless
Night " challenged thousands of participants from Miami
and visitors from innumerable cities and foreign countries to stay up for thirteen
hours in an internal and environmental adventure comprised of eighty-four artistic
events. Eliciting grand gaiety and quiet aesthetic contemplation the organizers
produced a wildly successful street festival scattered throughout four twisting
and turning zones of beautiful luminous Miami Beach.
