Resonance/Dissonance; Six Women Video Artists From The de la Cruz Collection at Frost Art Museum FIU
Miami, FL – June 18, 2016 – The Summer of Women at the Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum FIU culminated as Museum Director Jordana Pomeroy welcomed guests to the opening reception for “Resonance/Dissonance: Six Women Video Artists from the de la Cruz Collection,” featuring the work of Tracey Emin, Susanne M. Winterling, Sarah Morris, Aida Ruilova, Quisqueya Henriquez and Beatriz Monteavaro. Curated by the Frost Art Museum’s Curator Klaudio Rodriguez in collaboration with Ibett Yanez, Director of the de la Cruz Collection, the immersive environment draws visitors into the museum’s Grand Galleries ̶ showcasing how these artists evocatively use single-channel video and sound as their platform for experimentation. These six international artists exploit the range of video’s artistic potential and use the medium to explore themes of gender, violence, sexuality, the body, and popular culture. Resonance / Dissonance will be on view through September 18.
