HEDDA - Long peplum dress in greige pleated crepe satin. “Surrealist images manage to make visible what is in itself invisible. I’m interested in mystery and magic, which are also a way of exorcising uncertainty about the future,” says Maria Grazia Chiuri of her fall-winter 2020-2021 haute couture collection. The Creative Director of Dior women’s collections chose to focus on the work of artists such as Lee Miller, Dora Maar, and Jacqueline Lamba, who transcended the role of “muses” to which their beauty had initially relegated them in order to champion – in their lives and surrealist works a different femininity. The new collection is imbued with that attitude: one that is connected, attuned to nature, and transformation.

Feeding South Florida®, the leading domestic hunger-relief organization serving South Florida, and the second largest food bank in the United States, is hosting special Thanksgiving food distributions with various partners and municipalities throughout Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade Counties. Over 1 million households throughout Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties are experiencing food insecurity this Thanksgiving season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Feeding South Florida will distribute turkey, protein, fresh produce, dairy and shelf-stable items on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last at the following locations: Saturday, Nov. 21, 8 a.m.–11 a.m., 100 Black Men Feeding South Florida Main Warehouse, 2501 SW 32 Terrace, Pembroke Park, FL 33023 100 Black Men, a men's civic organization and service club with a goal to educate and empower African-American children and teens, in partnership with Publix Super Markets Charities will volunteer their time to organize and pack 2020 Thanksgiving meal boxes to be distributed by UPS. The food sorting and distribution will take place at the Feeding South Florida warehouse in Pembroke Park. Monday, Nov. 23, 4:30–6:30 p.m., Miami Dolphins Foundation, Dolphins Thanksgiving Hard Rock Stadium, 347 Don Shula Dr, Miami Gardens, FL 33056 Feeding South Florida will partner with the Miami Dolphins Foundation Food Relief Program to distribute turkey, shelf-stable items, and produce. Monday, Nov. 23, 3–5 p.m., Miami Marlins, Marlins Thanksgiving Marlins Park, 1390 NW 6th St., Miami, FL 33125 Feeding South Florida will partner with the Miami Marlins to distribute turkey, shelf-stable items, and other foods. Tuesday, Nov. 24, 4–6 p.m., City of Greenacres City of Greenacres City Hall, 5800 Melaleuca Ln., Greenacres, FL 33463 Feeding South Florida will partner with the City of Greenacres to distribute the first meals made at Feeding South Florida’s Community Kitchen, located at Feeding Palm Beach County, the organization’s Palm Beach County headquarters located in Boynton Beach. The new, state-of-the-art, 5,000-square-foot community kitchen was years in the making, and will provide meals to 1.5 million people in the four counties that Feeding South Florida serves (Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties). Feeding South Florida has seen a 200% increase in demand since the COVID-19 pandemic began in March 2020. Currently, there is a reduction of food boxes provided through the USDA’s Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP), a program created with CARES Act funding. Feeding South Florida’s allocation has decreased from receiving 160 53’ trailer loads of food per week in phase 1, to 110 loads in phase 2, to 60 loads in phase 3, and now it is down to only 14 trailer loads per week in phase 4. Feeding America food banks, including Feeding South Florida, have shared that at the end of December 2020, the country will experience a “commodity cliff,” which means food banks across the country will see more than a 50% reduction in food supply due to the expiration of the CARES ACT funding, USDA’s CFAP and Trade Mitigation commodity programs. Throughout the pandemic, Feeding South Florida has seen more than 1.5 million individuals need assistance and more than 45% find themselves seeking food assistance for the first time in their lives. Despite the drastic reduction in resources, Feeding South Florida will continue doing all it can to serve every person in need of assistance. To maintain the same level of output that the organization has seen as a result of CFAP food, Feeding South Florida will need $8 million per month to purchase food ― that’s enough for 40,000 to 50,000 households per week. In addition to monetary donations (every $1 = 9 meals), Feeding South Florida is in need of volunteers to help pack family meal boxes, complete with fresh produce, protein, dairy and shelf-stable items. For more information and additional food distribution locations, please visit Feeding South Florida’s COVID-19 response web page at https://feedingsouthflorida.org/covid19/ Since March, Feeding South Florida has provided over 138.6 million pounds of food to its quad-county service area. To put that in perspective, last year during the same time period, Feeding South Florida provided 56.6 million pounds of food. As a result of its efforts to secure and distribute as much food as they can, Feeding South Florida is now the second largest food bank in the United States. By ML Staff. Image courtesy of Unsplash

Mexican actor Sebastián Zurita was born into the arts. “It’s weird because I don’t really know any other type of upbringing,” he chuckles. “For me, it was natural. Back in the day, it was the golden era of soap operas and TV back in Mexico. We couldn’t go out that much, the day-to-day was going to sets and being in the movies. It was really interesting for a kid to watch and grow up around that, but also, you have the thing that your family is really public and there are small private moments. It’s kind of a weird upbringing in a way, but I loved it,” he says. His mother, Christian Bach, and father, Humberto Zurita --both household names-- introduced him to an industry he would fall in love with at a young age. Now 33 years old, Sebastián founded Addiction House, a production company, with his younger brother Emiliano. This summer, they launched the mini-series Cómo Sobrevivir Soltero on Amazon Prime —which Sebastián wrote, co-directed, and starred in. But Sebastián still remembers the days when he would hound his parents about casting him in the soap operas they produced. All he wanted to do was act. “I knew since I was a little kid that I was going to be an actor. I enjoyed being on set so much, just pretending to play different characters,” he says. “‘You have to be a kid. You’re going to have plenty of time to work. And now, you have to educate yourself and play around,’” he recollects his parents telling him. After a lot of asking, Sebastián finally got his wish. At 10 years old, he made his first television appearance on Cañaveral de Pasiones. He remembers his parents telling him, “If you really like it, we will support you” —and they did. Even though his parents had successful careers, they managed to make time for Emiliano and him. “Both my parents would take turns, depending on who was working, the other one would stay home. Something they did was that if I had a competition or anything, they made sure they would always prioritize family first.” Family has always been important to Sebastián, which is why it’s no surprise that he teamed up with his brother to create Cómo Sobrevivir Soltero. Before Sebastián made it big on Amazon Prime, he worked on many Mexican soap operas and films. “When I was in college in Miami, there was an open casting for a movie in Mexico. I decided to go, and I landed the lead role,” says Sebastián. “I landed the role without ever studying acting.” As he got more serious about his acting career, he decided to go to Los Angeles to study at the Lee Strasberg Theater and Film Institute. “I really decided to make this my career. Ángel Caído was the first one I ever did. It almost took eight years to come out,” says Sebastián. “That movie ran out of money. Then, I went to do a shoot, and that’s when I found out I was pretty good at getting money. So, I got the money for the movie from investors and that’s how I got a production credit. That’s how the production idea started. En nombre del amor was Sebastián’s first main role on a soap opera. At the time, he was 22 years old, and he got a call from the network. “They saw a trailer of this movie, but the movie [Ángel Caído] never came out. I went into the office, they gave me the script to see if I liked it, and I decided to do it. It was intense because I was coming from a theater background.” Suddenly, Sebastián had four cameras pointing at him and was filming fifty scenes a day. “It was very different from what I had studied. The producer was nervous that I wasn’t going to make it. We have in-ears in Mexico, and I couldn’t use it --you have to learn to use them. They are feeding you everyone’s lines.” Sebastián told the producer he wanted to go by memory, but memorizing 40 sheets a day was very hard. For a month, Sebastián tried going by memory, then the producer gradually gave him more scenes every day. In his free time, Sebastián learned to be comfortable with the in-ear during filming. For the next few years, Sebastián moved from one soap opera to the next. He was in Corazón Salvaje, La Impostora, and Lo Imperdonable to name a few. Then, he began to work in films more, appearing in Amor de mis Amores, Una Selfie, 3 Idiotas, Todo Mal. But Sebastián always knew he wanted to do something else. He wanted to make his own rules and make his own content, which is how his production company, Addiction House, was born. And so Cómo Sobrevivir Soletero was launched under his production company. The project is very close to him, since the mini-series has many scenes inspired by Sebastián’s own life and experiences. “It came from me going on a guy’s trip to this beach,” he says. “One of my friends saying that he had different ideas on how we had to flirt with the women there. He ended up getting us in trouble the entire weekend. And the amount of stupid things that happened, all because we were all trying to be different than we are, just became comical. One of my friends got arrested for hooking up on the beach. And then, he gave his shoes to the police officer to not get arrested. Another went skinny dipping with a girl and some people stole all his clothes from the beach. They were naked all night and had to go to the girl’s hotel room, where her brother was, and borrow clothes. It was just crazy,” says Sebastián. Upon his return from this trip and a couple of restless nights, Sebastián began writing down their various adventures. That’s when Sebastián asked himself about the male and female romantic relationships, and how each party views the other, and their unique views on love. “The next day, my parents were having breakfast, but I was kind of shy about it. I said, ‘Can I read you something?’ My mom was like, ‘This is hilarious.’ Then, I called my brother, and that’s how we started working on the show. I told him I had this idea. We ended up creating a pilot and writing a season outline.” The Zurita brothers worked with Campanario Entertainment and Sony, and finally got it sold to Amazon. Sebastián and Emiliano recruited a team of writers and actors and the project took off. “You never achieve things alone,” says Sebastián. For him, it was critical to have a strong team, since he was not only starring in it, but producing and directing as well. The brothers developed a system so that they could both direct episode 9. “We have one voice on set, and if I’m not in the scene, I direct, and if I am, he does,” Sebastián explains. In Cómo Sobrevivir Soltero, he plays Sebastián, which he explains is a past phase of himself. “The part that people don’t understand is that if you’re an actor or public figure, everything doesn’t always come easy. I wanted to bring that to the show, that the acting life is not as glamorous as people think it is. It’s a lot of waiting around and being rejected.” In the show, the lead character, Sebastián, needs to find himself after being left at the altar —something that hasn’t personally happened to Sebastián. It’s a journey of self-discovery and growth, filled with many comical circumstances, some of which are based on real life. Sebastián currently has a couple of shows and movies in development and is hoping that Cómo Sobrevivir Soltero will be picked up for a second season on Amazon Prime. “Right now, we are at the expense of the public,” he says. Like all of us, Sebastián has been socialdistancing and living by himself in his Los Angeles home. He decided to go back to school and has been taking classes at UCLA. He has also been writing now more than ever before. “There are no excuses to not figure out things to do, a lot of my work comes from being next to a computer and being in my house —it’s part of a creative process.” Watch all ten episodes of Cómo Sobrevivir Soltero on Amazon Prime and follow Sebastián on Instagram and Twitter at @szuritaoficial.

Recently, The Spa at Wynn was revamped and given a new contemporary aesthetic and was decorated with extraordinary pieces, like a hammered bronze and clear quartzite chandelier by famed French designer Hervé Van der Straeten; three oversized vases with intricate hand-laid mosaics fashioned from thousands of seashells by artist Thomas Boog; and two enveloping 18-by-90-foot murals in the hydrotherapy areas featuring soothing koi fish from artist Paul Montgomery. “Every element of the Spa at Wynn has evolved, providing our guests with a totally new experience,” says Marilyn Spiegel, President of Wynn Las Vegas and Encore. “The striking new look is both modern and timeless, providing the perfect backdrop to the five-star service and exclusive treatments that can only be found at Wynn.” As the first spa in Las Vegas to receive a Forbes Five-Star Award, guests can expect the best service around. The spa’s opulent redesign and soothing rich color palette foster rest and relaxation.

Photo by Brian Oar Wynn Golf Club is another part of the luxe property that received a major renovation. In 2019, Tom Fazio, the original Wynn Golf Club designer and a true master golf course architect, reimagined the famed 18-hole championship course, bringing golf enthusiasts an exciting new golfing experience. Tom, joined by his son Logan, created a gorgeous, unique course for players of all skill levels. As the only resort golf course on the Las Vegas Strip, the 129-acre course features eight all-new holes and 10 revamped holes set among a lush landscape of 100,000 shrubs and 7,000 mature trees and sparkling water features on 12 holes. “The first hole has been rerouted from its original design to dogleg right instead of left. Highlights include a 486-yard par 4 (no. 16) and a par 5 (no. 11) that tops out at nearly 600 yards. The signature 18th hole has been transformed from a par 4 to a par 3, which can be stretched to 249 yards, culminating on the green framed by a 35-foot-tall by 100-foot-wide waterfall.” A professional golf caddie is provided with each starting reservation. Wynn Golf Clubs boasts a professional caddie program staffed with several PGA members, a new on-course culinary program, lithium-powered golf carts, expansive pro shop, and luxury clubhouse with full-service men’s and women’s locker rooms.

The Sagamore Hotel, known as Miami’s original Art Hotel, presents a new, reinvigorated arts program for Miami Art Week that returns the hotel to its roots as a leading and iconic art establishment. As one of the first art-themed hotels in the country, The Sagamore Hotel holds a special role in the contemporary art world. Now, with safety of top concern, The Sagamore Hotel—under the direction of Ronit Neuman and the support of ownership—revitalizes its crucial role during these challenging times with its resilient love of the arts, a healthy and engaged community, and its timely exhibitions that bring together a multitude of needed perspectives for Miami Art Week and beyond. “After some consideration, we couldn’t be more excited to officially announce that we will be able to continue our Art Week tradition, and especially to host our 19th Annual Iconic Sagamore Brunch.” - Ronit Neuman From left to right: Everyone Has A Story To Tell! by Camilo Rojas, Girl at Window (Norma) by Kristen Thiele The Sagamore Hotel is offering a wide array of safe art experiences. These include events during Art Week 2020 as well as ongoing exhibitions through February 2021. On December 2, the hotel will host its opening night, A.F.F.M. (Art, Fashion, Food, Music), at the Sagamore Supper Club. The opening night will feature a runway show from Miami Designer Pangea Kali Virga, DJ Bea Pernia and live musicians, a five course concept dinner under the stars curated by celebrity chefs Jeff McInnis and Janine Booth, accompanied by cocktails, wines provided by Jordan Vineyard & Winery, and curated art tours. This is an outdoor event with table service in respect to social distancing. Make reservations here (Tickets are limited). On December 5, the hotel will host its iconic 19th Annual Iconic Sagamore Brunch. The brunch is by invitation only and advance ticket sales to secure social distancing and control capacity. Tickets will include the signature brunch with unlimited mimosas, individual signature bites, crepes, art tours, live performances, and more. Make reservations here (Tickets are limited). From left to right: Chefs Jeff McInnis & Janine Booth, Jordan Vineyard & Winery, and fashion designer Pangea Kali Virga (photographer Gianfranco Tomassetti, model Chabelys Flore) Everyone Has A Story To Tell! and The Gaze (on view through Feb 2021) will feature multimedia works curated throughout the hotel grounds, and all artwork on display will be from artists exclusively from Miami. The exhibitions are curated by two respected and seasoned art professionals: Grela Orihuela, an art advisor, documentary filmmaker, and former art fair director, and Maggy Cuesta, a graphic designer and former Dean of Visual Arts at New World School of the Arts. The artworks are available for purchase and a portion of the proceeds of sales will benefit local artists. In its continued support of local art and cultural initiatives, The Sagamore Hotel will make a contribution from ticket sales and a portion of art sales to its cultural partner, The Bass, in support of their art acquisition fund in the purchase of art by a Miami artist. In conjunction with the exhibitions, there will be seven permanent murals at The Sagamore Hotel, curated by the duo. The artists involved with the murals include the following: Gabriela Beltran, Maria Benitez, Alejandro Contreras, Valeria Guillen, Patricia Monclus, Jose Felix Perez, and Camilo Rojas. Everyone Has A Story To Tell! offers an interactive experience where the artists share the stories behind their works. Visitors will also be able to contribute their own stories and reactions that can be submitted and likewise accompany the work. The idea is to have an ongoing narrative that continues throughout the entire run of the exhibition. The following artists will be featured: Luisa Basnuevo, Cleo Bell, Joyce Billet, Carol K. Brown, Ana Carballosa, Nereida Garcia-Ferraz, Roberto Gomez, Stephanie Hadad, Richard Haden, Hush Fell, Yusimy Lara, Cristina Lei-Rodriguez, Betty Monteavaro, Alex Nuñez, Jose Felix Perez, Gavin Perry, Christina Pettersson, Kerry Phillips, Ralph Provisero, Camilo Rojas, Mateo Serna Zapata, Alette Simmons-Jimenez, and We Are Nice’n Easy. The Gaze celebrates the human form through an artist’s eyes: how one person sees another, how they capture their essence, and how one gazes at another can alter the perspective of art history. Through expressions of desire, admiration, attraction, or inspiration, The Gaze explores fleeting moments of perception and connection. Also featuring Miami artists, the work will be exhibited salon-style in the Sagamore Salon, and is another way to continue a visual narrative throughout the run of the exhibition. The following artists will be featured: Susan Banks, Loriel Beltran, Jessica Cohen, Marina Font, Nereida Garcia-Ferraz, Carol Jazzar, Monique Lazard, Alex Nuñez, Jose Felix Perez, Christina Pettersson, Mateo Serna Zapata, Nina Surel, and Kristen Thiele.

The Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami (MOCA) will host exhibitions, virtual conversations, family programs, virtual tours and extended hours during Miami Art Week, Nov. 29–Dec. 6, 2020. “We are pleased to safely welcome visitors to the museum for Miami Art Week 2020 by presenting a diverse range of exhibitions and virtual programming,” said MOCA Executive Director Chana Budgazad Sheldon. “MOCA is honored to host the most comprehensive survey of work by Raúl de Nieves, complemented by the exhibition, ‘Life and Spirituality in Haitian Art,’ focusing on Haitian art and paying tribute to Haiti’s rich historical, cultural, and artistic heritage.” In-Person Exhibitions “Life and Spirituality in Haitian Art” Selection from the Betty and Isaac Rudman Trust Collection, On View Nov. 18, 2020–March 14, 2021 “Life and Spirituality in Haitian Art” brings together a selection of paintings from Haiti created between 1940 and 1970. Featuring works by Hector Hyppolite, Philomé Obin, Rígaud Benoit, Wilson Bigaud, Jacques-Enguérrand Gourgue, and Gérard Valcin, these renowned masters come from the first and second generation of artists associated with Port-au-Prince's Centre d' Art. This exhibition also includes some of their contemporaries and pupils, including Ernst Louizor, Célestin Faustin and Adam Leontus. The works reveal the artists’ diverse artistic styles influenced by strong African roots mixed with American indigenous and European elements. The merging of techniques, methods, and cultures is seen through their work, ushering forth a style that is uniquely and quintessentially Haitian. The paintings explore the Haitian identity through deep, rich, vibrant colored scenes depicting historical figures, tropical flowers and fruits, rural landscapes, and daily activities infused with spirituality and Afro-Caribbean religious symbolism, particularly from a voodoo tradition. The exhibition is curated by Francine Birbragher-Rozencwaig, Ph.D., art historian, independent curator, and art critic. “Raul de Nieves: Eternal Return & The Obsidian Heart,” On View Through March 21 Eternal Return and The Obsidian Heart is, to date, the most comprehensive survey of work by Raúl de Nieves. The exhibition connects the artist’s exuberant material sensibility to his roots in punk music, devotional ritual, and celebratory queerness. The artist draws inspiration from his childhood spent in Michoacán, Mexico, where public religious ceremonies and private rituals incorporate elaborate costuming and theatrical components. Coming of age in DIY scenes in San Diego and San Francisco also energized de Nieves with a theatrical approach to art making. The exhibition is curated by Risa Puleo. Virtual Conversations at MOCA Conversations at MOCA: Raul de Nieves + Risa Puleo – Thursday, Dec. 3, 7–8:30 p.m. Join artist Raul De Nieves in conversation with exhibition curator Risa Puleo via Zoom as they discuss De Nieves’ exhibition “Eternal Return & the Obsidian Heart”; his history, art and performance practice; and De Nieves’ affinity for punk rock, performance and mysticism.
