4 Curator s Note When I see a piece of art that speaks to me it s like hearing a great song It pulls at my heartstrings I don t know why or where it comes from it just moves me it s almost a physical feeling I hope the work in this year s show is going to move you Here s a bit about how we pulled it together FA C I N G O U R S E LV E S The show started with the Muhammad Ali in Miami collection by Andrew Kaufman which was first exhibited in the area by Miami New Drama at the Colony Theater on Lincoln Road in connection with a show called One Night In Miami I attended and was taken by the work and wanted to bring it to The Betsy The Ali boxing pictures inspired colleague Sabrina Hahn Director at Pace Galleries to introduce us to the great portrait photographer Michael Halsband who is responsible for the iconic boxing images of Basquiat and Warhol that are also included in this year s show Earlier this year Ellen Sweet and Ed Christen approached us about doing an exhibit of Ellen s late brother Andy Sweet Many of the pictures were taken right outside our front door on Ocean Drive and in Lummus Park Not only was Andy Sweet a great documentarian of Miami Beach during a different era he was also a pioneer in color photography He explored its potential in the 70 s before color photography was really widely regarded as an art form

5 What a gift Andy s work is to our community That leads us to Pete Turner one of the other true early pioneers of color whose work was introduced to us by Yale Shakespeare Scholar David Kastan who used a Turner image on the cover of his recent book On Color Turner did color photography in the 60 s and became one of the most respected and prolific jazz cover album photographers of all time working with artists like Antonio Carlos Jobim Steely Dan John Coltrane Ray Charles Dizzy Gillespie Paul Desmond Quincy Jones Dave Matthews and others Continuing the thread of color photography we are excited to present the works of Ik Ud who uses photography as his paint brush almost in the same way that old masters used to paint still lifes of their choosing Ik s choices will astound you In this show we ll feature images from two thematic collections Sartorial Anarchy and Nollywood and important new work The Robert Zuckerman Ricardo Cavolo and Carlos Andres Cruz images are part of our permanent collection and the artists have become part of the extended Betsy arts family The 300 works in Bob Bonis Collection of Lost Beatles Rolling Stones will remain up on walls throughout the property this is a timeless collection that continues to be a favorite for guests of all ages We call the show FACING OURSELVES There are so many faces in the images we ve selected and as you walk the galleries I invite you to think about how whenever we look at images of others we often gain deeper insight into ourselves Lesley Goldwasser Plutzik Co owner The Betsy Hotel Curator of Visual Art Ambient Music FA C I N G O U R S E LV E S We also offer an exhibit of Sevan Bi ak i who makes wearable sculpture Sevan carves the insides of semi precious stones creating 3 dimensional masterpieces which are then set into rings necklaces and bracelets connecting legacy craft with contemporary skills His work for the show includes a cuff carved in the inverse that is also a self portrait Ik Ud was taken by the power of Sevan s work and the artist himself and the resulting Sevan portrait will be included in Ik s exhibit
