Miami, FL – November 17, 2016 – Visitors enjoyed an evening of celebration at Pérez Art Museum Miami for the opening of Julio Le Parc: Form into Action. Inside the museum, visitors were wowed by the exhibition, the first U.S. museum survey of the artist’s work, and were treated to a catalogue signing by Julio Le Parc. Outside, the terrace was activated by a live performance by eccentric electric rock band Jacuzzi Boys and exhibition themed art-making. As the sun set, members joined the Art Fair Survival Party at PAMM Third Thursdays Lounge for complimentary drinks provided by Salvación Mezcal, Kim Crawford Wines and Beck’s. This month’s lounge featured exhibition-inspired manicures by Vanity Projects, informal modeling by Bloomingdale’s, makeup stations by GUCCI Beauty, and special artist watches by Swatch.

On view through March 19, 2017, Julio Le Parc: Form into Action features over 100 works that spark a variety of visual and physical experiences. Including major installations and rarely seen works on paper and archival materials, the exhibition is a long-overdue exploration of Le Parc’s central role in twentieth-century art history. Julio Le Parc: Form into Action is organized by Guest Curator Estrellita B. Brodsky. It is coordinated at PAMM by Chief Curator Tobias Ostrander with the support of Curatorial Assistant Jennifer Inacio. Yamil Le Parc serves as Artistic Advisor on the project. This exhibition is presented by Citi. Additional support has been provided by Hermès of Paris, Art & Art Collection, and the National Endowment for the Arts. Lead individual support received from Patrick and Jaleh Peyton and Patricia and William Kleh. Support for the catalogue from Galeria Nara Roesler and additional support from Faena Art, Cultural Services of the French Embassy, and from the J. W. Marriott Marquis Miami is also gratefully acknowledged.
