narrative, detail all revisions to the Project, as approved by the City Commission. Please be as specific as
possible, and include the name of any events, specific dates, venues, times, artists, etc. Use an extra page

Protect description as approved by Grants Panel:
With Nomadic Miami,BFI moves its platform outside of traditional gallery walls and into public space.
Miami Beach Cultural Affairs funds will go towards Nomadic Miami programming taking place on Miami Beach and will
match our Knight Arts Challenge Grant and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts grant.
By creating site-specific exhibitions,performances,talks and tours,BFI provides opportunities for artists to imagine the best
site for their work in relation to Miami's diverse landscape,while encouraging participants to create dialogue about art made in
or about Miami.
Planned Programming to take place under Nomadic Miami model includes:
• October 2017-Pretty Days-Pretty Days is a series of exhibitions utilizing a rectangular plant grow tent as its primary
platform for a temporary exhibition space.Artists Gregory Kalliche and Harry Gould Harvey IV will have artworks on display
in the grow tents.The 3 tents will be placed in public spaces across Miami Beach,giving the public access to pop into a mini
gallery while outside.Proposed locations include a Lifeguard stand,Pinetree Park,and the 1111 Garage.
• November 2017-A.S.T.-Alliance of the Southern Triangle proposes a symposium focusing on structure,
infrastructure and the physical/material dynamics literally beneath the surface of Miami's economy,urbanism and culture.
A.S.T.will bring together artists,the public and specialized expertise related to issues of city building,terraforming and water
control,in the face of accelerating sea rise and saltwater intrusion,and in the context of growing global political instability.
This panel is being proposed to take place at Carl Fisher Club House 2100 Washington Ave.
• December 2017-Blue Ruin- Proposed by artists and curators Anna Frost and Agnes Bolt,Blue Ruin is a hybrid
platform that specializes in contemporary art exhibitions within a real estate market.Working with the notion of invasive
species as a comment on the current political climate as well as the housing market's tendency to price out low income
families,Blue Ruin will work as home stagers,infusing contemporary art made by local artists as the work that potential home
buyers see when attending open houses.Open Houses will be seen as opportunities for exhibition openings and the works will
remain up until the homes are sold.This project is being proposed to take place in a luxury yacht or condo for sale in Miami
Beach.
• February 2018-Ricardo Mor: Untitled(Wall)-Untitled(Wall)is a large-scale,nomadic structure that will act as a
site of peaceful protest and activism for the duration of its public display.The work is modeled after a series of barricades
located outside the Secretario de Gobemacion offices in Mexico City.This protest infrastructure is normally situated on the
sidewalks or streets surrounding the building and is moved onto the street itself during protests to block off access points.
Unlike the original barricades in Mexico City,it is the intention of the work to have an inspirational effect on the community,
acting as an incubator for activism.This project will include talks,music activations,and performances.The ideal location
would be Collins Park.
• April 2018-Miami Music Club- Miami Music Club is a nomadic music and arts venue dedicated to creating
alternative,diverse social atmospheres through collaborative programming.For this programming Miami Music Club
will produce three site specific performances to take place around Miami Beach.Two visiting artists and one local will
activate the sites with music.The proposed locations include Open Space Park on 81st Street and Collins or on the sand
beachside.
Page 7 of 12
May 2018-Alan Gutierrez:The Cave-presented by artist and curator Alan Gutierrez,The Cave is a live production
for camera,including sculptural props,theatrical vignettes,lighting,dialogue and an original live score composed in
collaboration with Musical Director Oscar Bustillo.This programming is proposed to take place in the Collins Park Rotunda.
Gutierez's past works all involved dramatic lighting that blur the lines between a film set and an art exhibition.
• May-September 2018-Rachel Johnson: Escaped Exotics Escaped Exotics enables the mass public release of
information about key invasive plant species common to Miami,including Rosary Pea,Australian Pine,Brazilian Pepper and
Air potatoes.Featuring invasive ecology information from ethnobotanical perspectives,posters consider human visions for
landscape alteration and the use of plants to effect desired changes in the material world alongside plants'biological
mechanisms of adaptation.Posters will be translated into Spanish,Creole and English and will be placed around walking areas
for public information.
August 2018-Mangos- Presented by artists Audrey Gair,Marines Montalvo and Natalia Arias,this exhibition will
take place in Mango's Tropical Cafe with the dancers,costumes,lights and music serving as the backbone to the artwork,with
the history of the club serving as the narrative.This programming involves Miami-themed period films,paintings displayed on
top of pre-existing murals and 3D works activating the cave area.
Through direct site-specific programming,Nomadic Miami has the opportunity to reach broader audiences and serve more
diverse communities that often lack access to contemporary art.With the support of grants and partnerships,this new model
allows us to expand efficiently by activating pre-existing sites and sharing resources so that we grow organically in response
to the needs of Miami's ever-evolving cultural landscape.
Project description as revised (if applicable) based upon the City Commission approved award:
Changes to projects funded by Grants awarded under the Artistic Disciplines program must still adhere to the
requirement that the work is new or has never before been presented in Miami Beach.
