Critical Miami Plans Your Weekend

Erika Somogyi at Rocket Projects Thursday
Nina Arias, who was famously separated from the Rocket Projects gallery last September, is throwing a “one-night Sumo-wrestling and Japanese costume party” at the Moore Building tonight. The event, Titanes, runs from 8 to midnight, and invites you to dress up Japanese (free).

Friday
We believe that Miami Light Project actually commissioned their latest production, Scratch and Burn, which sounds amazing. It’s playing all weekend, but tonight’s performance is the only one that includes a question and answer session with the performers ($25). The Art and Culture Center of Hollywood opens the Hollywood All-Media Juried Biennial , which includes a number of Miami artists, including our pals Ross and Isabel ($5).

Saturday
An opening at Rocket Projects (Erika Somogyi in the Project Room (looks good); Cristina Lei Rodriguez is still in the main room) is part of this Second Saturday thing. Also an opening party at the Rubell Collection (more information to come on this one).

Sunday
All this week 13 Tibetan monks are creating a Sand Mandala at Art+ Gallery there will be a closing ceremony this afternoon, although you may want to drop by another day and see them at work; they’re open 11am to 6pm.

By the way, there’s growing excitement about the Trapeze Lessons we covered previously. Turns out there’s a website!
