This 41- piece exhibit of "paintings, drawings, sculptures, installations, digital videos and photographs is a part of the Mera and Don Rubell Collections, one of the largest private collections of contemporary art in the world, currently being housed in a 45,000 square foot former DEA warehouse-turned-museum in Miami, Florida."
Our docent had us study an art piece first, reflect and share our interpretations with our group. It was powerful indeed as we explored together issues of race, gender sexuality, politics and history.
We were allowed to take photos without flash and I'm so glad to be able to share some of these with you. You can perhaps imagine our discussions.
Take a listen to Hanging Fruit: Billie Holiday's song depicted in the metal sculpture of a silver teapot encapsulated by tree branches.
You visit the most interesting places. I love that Billie Holiday song...so sad, but poignant.
