Street artists Al Diaz, Danny Minnick and Edwin Baker created a special mural on the Art Wynwood tent today to address the recent school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Al Diaz is a New York based artist and along with Jean-Michel Basquiat was the creator of SAMO, and he flew to Miami to create the piece and pay his respects to the tragedy that occurred on Wednesday February 14th, 2018.
The mural reads: SAMO 4 THE ANGRY CHILD FEELING ALL ALONE SECRETLY FORGING A HEART “COLD AS STONE” COMTEMPLATES VENGEANCE, STARES AT HIS PHONE LEAVES US 2 CLEAN UP, THE FLESH, BLOOD & BONE.
In addition, in response to the tragedy, Art Miami LLC will donate half of all box office proceeds generated during Art Wynwood to victims and their families of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School tragedy.
Nick Korniloff, Founder, Art Wynwood, comments, “Due to the unimaginable tragedy that unfolded on Wednesday February 14 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL, half of the box office proceeds made during this weekend’s Art Wynwood fair will be donated to support the victims and their families. Myself and the fair’s ownership team are approaching and encouraging all of our 70 galleries and vendors to make additional donations. Resorts World Miami LLC, the property owner of One Herald Plaza where this year’s fair is taking place, has already committed to a generous donation, as has Eventstar Structures, Spuntino Catering, Platform International LLC, and Accurate Event Group, and we feel confident that many more of our colleagues and friends in the compassionate international art world will join us. We encourage everyone to donate to the official GoFundMe site for the Marjory Stoneman High School https://www.gofundme.com/stonemandouglasvictimsfund.

MIAMI, FL— Artist Sandra Muss has created, Nūr, a new site-specific installation for “The Poetry Of Music And Design – An Homage To Zaha Hadid”, a special performance by the Miami Symphony Orchestra on February 25, 2018 at 6 pm. The concert will take place in the Miami Design District’s historic Moore Building beneathHadid’s Elastika, a sculpture designed for the atrium in 2004, and will feature the world premiere of “@Zaha's Place”, inspired by Elastika and composed by Maestro Eduardo Marturet. This event is presented in association with the Zaha Hadid Foundation.
For the performance, Muss has created a work that is a vital part of a conversation between music, art and audience. Named for the Arabic word for light, Nūr is a collection of three asymmetrical columns, that are eight, nine, and ten feet tall, fashioned out of mirrored steel, with undulating cutouts lit by interior lights. Inspired by the natural world, these slivers of light appear organic, emerging from within the cool, sharp geometry of the columns. These apertures are inviting, and somewhat ethereal. Muss explains that, when creating this installation, she was inspired by Hadid’s brilliant mind, and the ingenuity and the dynamism that defined her work.
Nūr is a wholly immersive experience of art and music together. The work will be located behind the orchestra on the ground floor viewers can pass through as they enter the space, and also have the opportunity to walk around during the concert. The reflective surfaces of the columns allow the audience to catch fragmented glimpses of themselves and the orchestra, making them part of the space and also of the performance.
In addition to “@Zaha’s Place,” the concert program will include: Bach – Toccata & Fugue in D minor, LeFrak – Nothing Left, Marcello – Concerto for Oboe in D minor, Rachmaninov – Vocalise, Cage - 4'33", and Holst – Mars & Jupiter.
Maestro Eduardo Marturet comments that “I am excited and proud to have an artist of the stature and sensitivity of Sandra Muss creating a special work for the occasion”.
