Miami Beach, FL – October 15, 2019 – Executive Director Susan Gladstone welcomed Jewish Museum of Florida-Fiu stakeholders and Miami art leaders to the opening reception of Mira Lehr’s “A Walk in the Garden”. Curated by Jacqueline Goldstein, this gorgeous new site-specific installation unveils the eco-feminist’s latest creations in full bloom. Celebrating her sixth decade as a pioneering artist on Miami Beach, the exhibition features ten monumental new paintings and 180 newly created aerial sculptures that descend from the ceiling of the museum’s main sanctuary.

At the age of 85, Mira Lehr is creating more new works now than at any other period of her career. Guests included Kenneth Bloom, Ira Giller, Betsy Miller, Tudor Parfitt, Dennis Scholl, Chana Budgazad Sheldon, John Symons, and Danny and Merle Weiss among others.
