Illuminate Coral Gables
Jan 14 - Feb 12, 2022
Lance M. Fung brings his unique sensibility and cutting-edge approach to Greater Miami with Illuminate Coral Gables, a free month-long experiential exhibition that will return to once again turn the city’s streets, historic buildings, and public spaces into a brilliant outdoor museum.
As one of Greater Miami’s oldest neighborhoods, Coral Gables, known as “The City Beautiful,” will be hosting Illuminate Coral Gables (ICG) on January 14, 2022, and will serve as a three-dimensional canvas with newly commissioned and existing works by world-renowned local, national, and international artists. This installation embraces technology with an augmented reality feature, enhancing the experience for visitors.
The exhibition features eight projects incorporating video projections, sculptures, and art installations that were created by 16 artists, many of whom call Miami home. Six of the pieces are site-specific commissions.
Highlights:
- Kiki Smith’s site-inspired installation, “Blue Night,” consists of more than 42 animal constellations filling the center section of Coral Gables’ popular Giralda Plaza.
- “90 Miles: De-construction, 2021” by Miami’s Sandra Ramos, on display at the Hotel Colonnade Coral Gables. The 32-foot walkway consists of 12 lightboxes in the shape of a symbolic bridge between Miami and Havana, Cuba.
Previously unveiled on February 12, 2021, Illuminate Coral Gables brings stunning interactive art, video projections, and light sculptures to the streets of Coral Gables.
Art installations can be enjoyed 24/7 through February 12, 2022.
