“Liminal” by Leandro Erlich
Pérez Art Museum Miami
This new survey of works by Leandro Erlich focuses on the Argentine artist's visions of North America, and his fascination with liminal spaces. The 16 pieces on view at PAMM feature glimpses of swimming pools and neighbors's living rooms—each encounter introduces a sense of unease into ordinary surroundings, imbuing them with a peculiar sense of loneliness.
“Liminal” is on view through September 4, 2023 at the Pérez Art Museum Miami.
“100 Years”
Gagosian and Jeffrey Deitch
Working in collaboration with Jeffrey Deitch, Gagosian presents a group exhibition of artists whose work interrogates social issues of the past, present, and future. The artists selected include emerging and established names like Amanda Ba, Urs Fischer, Tom Friedman, Theaster Gates, Douglas Gordon, Damien Hirst, and Zoé Blue M, and were selected for their ability to encapsulate the breadth of contemporary cultural movements while acknowledging the ephemerality of social memory and the human experience.
“100 Years” is on view through December 4, 2022 at the Buick Building located at 3841 NE 2nd Avenue.
"Sex" by Madonna
Saint Laurent Rive Droite
You're going to have to be over 18 to get into this gallery. To mark the 30-year anniversary of Madonna's seminal book Sex, Saint Laurent is bringing the pop icon's sensual universe to life with a special exhibition of hitherto-unpublished imagery. Sex, which includes a collection of Steven Meisel-shot images and writings by Madonna herself, whipped up quite a commotion upon its release in 1992, before securing its status as a cult sensation. Curated by Saint Laurent's creative director Anthony Vaccarello, the beachfront exhibition will feature 25 prints from the book, and will be accompanied by a limited-edition run of 800 new copies of Sex (a select few are even signed by the Queen of Pop herself). Proceeds from those editions will benefit the singer’s Raising Malawi charity.
Saint Laurent's "Sex" exhibition will be on view through December 4, 2022 at the Art Basel Miami beachfront.
“Ribbons” by Andrea Marie Breiling
Night Gallery

Breiling’s new series of large-format works are currently on view at the newly-renovated Villa Paula in Little Haiti.
“Ribbons” is on view through December 4, 2022 at Villa Paula, located at 5811 North Miami Avenue in Little Haiti.
