Miami is finally coming out of its post-Art Week, post-holiday hibernation. While plenty of galleries and museums will keep their Art Week shows up through the spring, a few are opening new exhibitions this month. Here’s a look at the best art shows you can see in Miami this January.
All presentations are listed in the order they opened. Unless otherwise noted, all listed events are free to attend and open to the public.
Reynaldo Rivera, Anna Betbeze, Sara Seistreem (Hanis Coos) at Nina Johnson.
Three new solo shows open at Nina Johnson Gallery in Little Haiti this month. In “Danse Macabre,” LA-based photographer Reynaldo Rivera offers a tribute to the Mexican stage performer Miss Alex that also references medieval and Baroque artistic themes. Oregon-based Sara Siestreem (Confederated Tribes of the Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians) will show sculptural works inspired by Indigenous traditions in “yes/and (yellow is the medicine).” Finally, Anna Betbeze will focus on concealment and darkness in “In the Quarry,” which references Paul Klee’s painting of the same name. Opens Thursday, January 16 at Nina Johnson Gallery, 6315 NW Second Ave., Miami; 305-571-2288; ninajohnson.com.
