Inaugural Exhibition: "Contemporary Inventories" — Pre-Basel Season 2024

MIAMI, FL, UNITED STATES, September 18, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- MIA Curatorial Projects, a leading force in Miami’s contemporary art scene, proudly announces its expansion to a new gallery space in the Little River district. The highly anticipated 1,000 sq. ft. gallery, located at 6945 NE 3rd Avenue Miami, will open its doors this Saturday, September 21, with the exhibition "CONTEMPORARY INVENTORIES," curated by Dr. Milagros Bello. This exhibition, featuring works from 18 emerging and established artists, will run until October 16, 2024.


"CONTEMPORARY INVENTORIES" explores the artistic process and production in contemporary times, offering a rich aesthetic "inventory" that reflects the diverse expressions of today's art. The exhibition presents a comprehensive assessment of creative processes, with pieces ranging from abstract to representational art, each evoking a spectrum of emotions and thoughts. The featured works touch on major themes such as the communicational spirit, the human condition, nature and its crisis, and the experiences of immigrants.


This exhibition captures the scales of the creative process, from nonrepresentational to figurative approaches, giving viewers a pathos of the imaginary.

Dr. Milagros Bello, curator and director of MIA Curatorial Projects, emphasized the significance of this exhibition: “This exhibition captures the scales of the creative process, from nonrepresentational to figurative approaches, giving viewers a pathos of the imaginary. It's a deep dive into the dynamic paradigms of our times.”


Little River, just north of Little Haiti, has become a vibrant, art-centric neighborhood, attracting galleries, artist-run spaces, and non-profits, further enriching Miami's artistic landscape. With this new venue, MIA Curatorial Projects continues to play a crucial role in the ongoing cultural transformation of the area, just in time for the much-anticipated Art Basel Miami.
