SUMMARY:A Conversation: Art and the Brain
DESCRIPTION:The Coral Springs Museum of Art will continue this vital conversation about Alzheimer’s Awareness and Dementia during a community talk called “Art and the Brain” on September 12th\, held in the Main Gallery. \n\n\n\nArt and the Brain: Naked NeuronsJoin Kristin Beck and Lindsey Wuest for a thought-provoking discussion and a brain thumping art activity. ‘Naked Neurons’ is an interactive conversation and creative experience that will inspire attendees to analyze memories associated with the senses in a tactile way—assigning a deeper meaning to how our brains process memories.

No art skills are required for this activity and all supplies will be included. \n\n\n\nAbout Lindsey Wuest:Lindsey is an artist and a career teacher\, licensed in English 6-12 and Art K-12. Lindsey teaches\, researches\, and continuously develops the curriculum for a new K-5 special area subject: Science through Art.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Before I Forget\, Barrio Alto\, Sementerxs & Dialogues Across Walls
DESCRIPTION:Coral Springs Museum of Art is presenting a new exhibition featuring Edison Peñafiel\, Amanda Linares\, and Mitzi Falcón in the Main Gallery\, with Kristin Beck showcased in the East Gallery. \n\n\n\nAbout the Artists:Kristin Beck is a writer\, artist\, and native Floridian\, which provides colorful characters along with the intense humidity. Influenced by the area’s vibrant culture\, her work relies on crustacean-hued memories and is imbued with the sound of wild parrots set free by Hurricane Andrew. Beck has exhibited in nearly 50 exhibitions\, including Best in Show at Girls’ Club\, Ft. Lauderdale\, Fla.\, and Gritty in Pink at Bailey Contemporary Arts\, Pompano Beach\, Fla.\, Last Blast at Frenchy Gallery\, New Orleans\, La.\, and Curators as Artists at Warehouse Gallery\, Orlando\, Fla. In 2024\, she received an Artist Support grant from the Broward Cultural Division. \n\n\n\nMitzi Falcón trained as a designer and visual communicologist at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México and as a self-taught artist. Mitzi’s visual proposal fuses her experiences with various contemporary issues such as neurodivergences\, migration\, gender inequalities and social inequalities; Falcón not only seeks to convey an opinion or judgment on these issues\, but through the inclusion of objects with high symbolic content and the recreation of scenic fictions\, she seeks reflection\, resonance and critical analysis of the viewer. \n\n\n\nShe works with photography and scenography. \n\n\n\nHis work has recently been exhibited at the Consulate of the United Mexican States in Miami\, Corridor Project – Oslow Norway and the Untitled Art Fair in Miami and is part of several private collections. \n\n\n\nEdison Peñafiel\, originally from Ecuador\, migrated to the United States in 2002. Since graduating from the Florida International University’s Fine Arts program in 2016\, he concentrated his practice on numerous large scale projects\, site-specific\, and immersive installations projects presented at The Bass Museum\, the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami\, the Orlando Museum of Art\, the Elsewhere Museum\, the Contemporary Art Center New Orleans\, the Atlantic Center for the Arts\, the USF Contemporary Art Museum\, the Museum of Art Fort Lauderdale\, Atchugarry Art Center\, among others. Notable awards include: the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation\, the Florida Prize in Contemporary Art\, the South Florida Cultural Consortium Fellowship\, the Green Family Foundation\, and the Foundation for Contemporary Arts. \n\n\n\nAmanda Linares is a Cuban-born visual artist who currently lives and works in Miami. Her work expands like branches using an immense variety of media from design and drawing to installation and photography. Influenced by literature and spatial awareness\, Amanda’s work contains poetic language while exploring narration and/or space through the use of reflection\, transparency\, revelation\, found objects\, and typographical solutions. Although in constant change\, her work intimately dances between many universal issues\, such as identity\, displacement\, absence\, and reconnection. Her eagerness for learning new ways to express herself led her to study graphic design at New World School of the Arts. She is currently a resident artist at the Bakehouse Art Complex. \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public.

RSVP to secure your spot for an evening of insightful conversation and artistic inspiration! \n\n\n\nAbout Our Guest Speakers: \n\n\n\nMilena Arango\, is a Colombian artist based in West Palm Beach. She thrives on adventure and the exploration of new ideas to create compelling works of art. Her journey into the world of art was ignited by her mother’s boundless curiosity and zest for life\, at a time when she had the privilege of experiencing diverse cultures\, languages\, and people. Arango earned a degree in Visual Arts from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana\, embarking on a journey into the realm of theater shortly thereafter. This diversification of artistic pursuits has enriched her creative process\, where she continuously exploring new techniques and embracing risks\, finding inspiration in the unexpected and seizing opportunities with the first object that comes to hand. \n\n\n\nKX2 is a collaboration combining the strengths of artists and sisters Ruth Avra and Dana Kleinman who create mathematically inspired sculpture merging metal and painting.  From a distance the work is bold and geometric\, yet up close the viewer is engaged by textural hand-sanded metal and multi-layered paintings. By exploring geometry\, symmetry and connection\, their work aims to create a moment of pause\, inviting the viewer to escape the stresses of the day and find a space to achieve balance. In their most recent work\, themes related to environmental issues are presented with the hope to raise an awareness of the fragility of our natural ecosystems.  \n\n\n\nSince establishing their artistic collaboration in 2007\, KX2’s work has been featured in notable galleries and museums around the world. Importantly\, the work was leveraged to the international art scene with an invitation to represent the United States at the 2008 Beijing Biennale at the National Art Museum of China. Their work can be found in numerous private\, corporate\, and public art collections throughout North America. Avra and Kleinman currently reside with their individual families in Southern Florida. \n\n\n\n​KX2 is environmentally conscious of material choices\, using up to 50% recycled metals and recycled canvas. \n\n\n\nDr. Andrea Lemaitre joined the City of Coral Springs as Sustainability Manager in 2023. She is responsible for implementing and managing the City’s Sustainability Action Plan\, developing policy\, coordinating city initiatives across departments\, providing education and outreach\, and partnering with the community and external organizations.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Scott Schneider | Toxic/Nature Studios
DESCRIPTION:Toxic/Nature Studios features environmental photography by Scott Schneider that celebrates the majesty of nature and laments its demise\, in small moments. Using close-up macro techniques with his iPhone\, the photographs express Schneider’s appreciation for and concern about the environment. With the practice of taking photos daily of his surroundings\, Schneider creates archival\, digital prints from these images using environmentally friendly inks on bamboo paper. \n\n\n\n“As we become increasingly distracted by our devices\, we tend to overlook small disasters beneath our feet. Likewise\, we can fail to notice the beautiful moments present in nature. I explore these concepts in the “Toxic” and “Nature” galleries on my website ToxicNature.com. Beauty can also be found in the rust\, decay\, and textures of everyday objects\, which I highlight in the “Manufactor” gallery\, found on the website as well.” ~Scott Schneider \n\n\n\nJoin this event to ask questions\, learn more about Scott’s work and more! \n\n\n\nAdmission is FREE. Registration is not required.
