28 South Florida artists will showcase their work within 10 curated art exhibit spaces, grouped together to make one large feature area titled, “At Home with Art” as part of the Miami Home Design and Remodeling Show.  The exhibition will take place from March 18-21, 2016 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.

Following a “Call to Artists,” submissions were carefully reviewed by Home Shows Management and artists were selected based on a commitment to both their profession and the South Florida artistic community. Chosen artists represent emerging, mid-career, and established artists who work in different mediums including: painting, sculpture, ceramics, mixed-media, and photography. Collectively, their work has been exhibited locally and internationally, ranging from local art walks and events to major art fairs including: Art Basel (Miami), Art Miami, and SCOPE Miami Beach. New to this Show are the inclusion of two award-winning filmmakers who will exhibit fine art photography.

Since being chosen, the artists have formed 10 different groups, selected the art or are working on new works, and have titled and “self-curated” their own unique exhibit aimed to engage and educate the community about South Florida’s artistic community.

“In response to demonstrating a unique and creative use of the space to stimulate community engagement our intent is to arrange space within the booth to have sufficient space to work on a painting during the 4-days of the show,” commented Rebecca Barbawho will exhibit her paintings and will collaborate with Nate Dee on a new painting on site. “This will draw in spectators and will allow us to engage with the home show participants in a more intimate setting.”
