Announcing New Contemporary Arts Exhibition: “Pastiche” by Lauren Shapiro
Exhibition reception on October 23, 2024, and explore Pastiche until May 19, 2025.
For its 2024 Contemporary Arts Program Exhibition, Vizcaya presents Pastiche, featuring site-specific work by Miami-based artist Lauren Shapiro. The exhibition explores the enduring legacy of Vizcaya’s artistic advisor, Paul Chalfin (1874 – 1959), whose 150th anniversary we celebrate this year.
Shapiro turns to Chalfin’s contributions at Vizcaya, particularly the use of pastiche – the blending of styles and influences to create a cohesive whole – to inform her own work. Shapiro’s series of sculptures integrate ceramic, glass and technology to create a visual language that evokes the past while resonating with the present.
Join us for the exhibition reception on October 23, 2024, and explore Pastiche until May 19, 2025.
