The best spots for Caribbean art lovers in Miami

[Many thanks to Peter Jordens for bringing this item to our attention.] Hannah Gulics (Island Origins Magazine) reviews 8 interesting art venues in Miami, Florida: the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM); Cubaocho Museum & Performing Arts Center; The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), North Miami; Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA), Miami; Little Haiti Cultural Complex (LHCC); El Espacio 23; Art Basel Miami Beach; and PRIZM Art Fair. She writes:

Even with its bustling streets and downtown business-centric enclaves, Miami has become known as a haven for the art community. The 305 is home to some of the best world-class art galleries, museums, public spaces featuring vibrant murals, cultural institutions and events — including the famous Art Basel — and those with a keen eye will find that within the heart of Miami’s arts scene lies a rich appreciation for the history, culture and expression of the Caribbean. With a strong Afro-Caribbean presence in the downtown district and surrounding boroughs, these institutions have dedicated themselves to uplifting these communities, showcasing lesser-known artists or culture-driven work that tends to be left out of the larger art world.
