Artist As Catalyst Open Call announcement!

Artist As Catalyst

The Artist as Catalyst Program is a two-day immersive experience for emerging artists interested in making a positive social impact with their art. Located in Miami and embracing a specifically regional focus, 15 to 20 young Catalysts, ages 18-26, will be selected to partake in studio classes, keynote conversations, and interactive workshops on the themes of Artistry, Citizenship and Entrepreneurship. Produced by The Peace Studio and guided by experts, scholars and practicing artists, the two-day program is a primer for a full conference in 2023, which our inaugural class of 2022 Catalysts will automatically gain access to.

The Catalyst Program welcomes artists of all disciplines, art forms, and educational backgrounds, as long as they’re actively engaged in some sort of creative practice at the time of the program.

Use the following link to access the submission portal on Submittable: https://thepeacestudio.org/what-we-do/leadership-development/artist-as-catalyst/

The program benefits those emerging artists who are looking to build community around the questions: How do I make great art? Make a living? And make a difference in the world?

Rooting itself in the dynamic, multicultural hub of Miami, the Artist as Catalyst Program embraces the maxim: “think globally, act locally” and as such will engage thought leaders, community organizers, and artists whose work addresses Miami’s specific challenges and opportunities, and yet whose impact echoes far beyond regional confines.

This years’ program, free to its participants, will be hosted by Green Space Miami on Thursday, July 7th and Friday, July 8th, 2022. Green Space Miami, the Green Family Foundation’s community art space, is guided by the foundation’s principles of inclusion, community empowerment and education. Green Space Miami is dedicated to highlighting Miami-Dade artists and local organizations, illuminating dialogue on critical social issues facing society. Transportation and housing will not be provided. Meals and parking will be covered for all participating Catalysts.

Leading support for this new initiative is being provided by the Green Family Foundation Trust, to whom The Peace Studio is deeply grateful.

 

Steven & Dorothea Green Critics’ Lecture Series presents Activist Pioneer, Mel Chin

Mel ChinSaturday, March 26 at 3pm

Please join us for a lecture with internationally renowned artist Mel Chin. One of the great idea generators of our time, Chin makes art that is both analytical and poetic, and evades easy classification. 

Born in Houston, Texas in 1951, Chin is known for a broad range of approaches in his art, including works that require multi-disciplinary, collaborative teamwork and works that conjoin cross-cultural aesthetics with complex ideas. Chin insinuates art into unlikely places, including destroyed homes, toxic landfills, and even popular television, investigating how art can provoke greater social awareness and responsibility. HIs work is found in the collections of several major museums including the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, GA; Museum of Fine Art (MFAH), Houston, TX; Museum of Modern Art, New York, NY; Walker Art Center Minneapolis, MN; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY.

Black and Basel: Here’s Sugarcane’s guide to Miami Art Week

Sugarcane Magazine’s “Black and Basel Guide” was created to help visitors and South Florida locals feel connected to the contemporary art market. This year’s return-to-art guide shines a spotlight on a series of hybrid virtual and in-person events, auctions and exhibits that provide visibility to both emerging and established Black artists.

This year’s highlights include Art Basel’s Meridians sector of monumental works and installations, curated by Magali Arriola, director of Museo Tamayo, Mexico City. Look for Todd Gray’s “Sumptuous Memories of Plundering Kings” (2021), a 14-part work that explores European colonialism presented by David Lewis; Howardena Pindell’s “Sweatshop” (1998-1999) presented by Garth Greenan Gallery; and Yinka Shonibare CBE’s “Moving Up “(2021), an installation presented by James Cohan Gallery.
