Since 2005 we have been publishing, miamiartzine.com continues to be a vibrant contribution to the arts community of South Florida. With original content from generous and talented writers who want to make a difference in supporting the arts, miamiartzine.com needs donations to continue its mission: to be a definitive and contributive voice for the arts in South Florida with original content including reviews, interviews, previews, and photo and video galleries.
Our writers receive little or no monetary compensation. While we sell ads, run fundraisers, and receive grants, all of these endeavors still do not provide sufficient funds for the growth of our staff.
miamiartzine has been covering and contributing to the arts scene since 2005 and has become an integral and necessary voice in the arts community. Won't you help us to continue doing so for many more years to come?

An interactive, electroacoustic sound installation and multimedia performance created by Miami-based Slovakian composer, performer, and multimedia artist Juraj Kojs, marks the third installment of MTC’s 2013-14 SandBox Series, which offers performing artists a six-week residency in which to develop, rehearse, and perform a new work, as well as teach classes for the community. The SandBox Series is made possible by a $100,000 Knights Arts Challenge grant provided by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
For this new work, Kojs utilizes various non-verbal sonic signals (rooster calls, beeps, alarms, sirens, ringtones, video game sounds, and computer earcons) to invite the audience to navigate through a forest of various sonic and tactile experiences and explore a multiplicity of ways we interact with signals in the physical world and the digital domain. Joining Kojs for this interdisciplinary work will be his frequent collaborators, dancer-choreographer Carlota Pradera (also a 2013-14 SandBox Series artist) and costume and set designer Kim Yantis. Support for SIGNALS has been provided, in part, by The Foundation for Emerging Technologies and Arts and the Harold Golen Gallery.
Feb. 14-March 1. MTC Sandbox * Miami Theater Center * mtcmiami.org

Miami Beach Arts Trust was founded in 1999 as a 501 (C)(3) organization by the City of Miami Beach with the primary goal of providing awareness of and funding for the Arts. In 2002, at the recommendation of the City Manager, the Trust separated from the City and became a stand-alone organization.
In addition to presenting workshops and spotlighting individual artists in all areas of the arts, the Miami Beach Arts Trust also acts as the fiscal agent for smaller, non-profit organizations. It now has a volunteer board of directors that oversees its activities.
One of its greatest accomplishments was the creation of an online publication to better serve South Florida's arts community and arts lovers. Publisher and Miami Beach Arts Trust Chair Harvey J. Burstein conceived the idea of an online publication to better serve South Florida's arts community and arts lovers.
Each issue contains original feature stories about arts and entertainment, professional reviews and Around Town photo galleries by miamiartzine.com's professional photographers. The zine has also expanded to cover not only Miami-Dade County, but Broward and Palm Beach counties.
The enthusiastic response from the arts community has contributed to the steady growth of miamiartzine.com.

Author/librarian/reviewer Jo Manning was born in Italian Harlem and grew up in Astoria, Queens, New York. She was a research librarian for over forty years, working in academia (University of Miami, Barry University, Central Michigan University) and the corporate world (Reader's Digest, ABC News). With her husband Nick (a filmmaker and film professor), and their two children, Jo has traveled widely, spending a year in India in the late 1970s. These days, she confines her travels to London, where she visits family and gathers research for future writing and lectures — her specialty is 18th-century English social history and culture. Among the publications she's reviewed for are Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, Booklist, and various online 'zines. Jo recently completed a six-year stint on the City of Miami Beach's Historic Preservation Board, where she was the at-large member living in an historic district. Book recommendations? "Seducing Mr. Heywood" (a Regency romance), and "My Lady Scandalous" (the biography of an 18th century courtesan) to anyone interested in her writing style. Both are available on Amazon. She and her husband have lived happily in South Beach for 20 years.
Born and raised in Puerto Rico, Ruben's love affair with the moving image began at an early age, even after refusing to play Winnie the Pooh at his first-grade graduation. Reviewing gigs at the University of Akron's The Buchtelite and The University of Miami's Miami Hurricane gave way to a six-year-stint as a program consultant for the Miami Gay & Lesbian Film Festival. For over 16 years he has turned Miami's suburban housewives into foreign-film fanatics behind the counter of several Blockbuster stores. This Disney freak and longtime Michael Bay foe has been a Miami resident since 1995. An occasional participant on the Stonewall Live podcast and a regular contributor to miamiartzine, SunPost Weekly and Beached Miami, he became a member of the Florida Film Critics Circle in 2011. And yes, he liked Terrence Malick The Tree of Life much more than you did.

Irene has spent several months of the year in NYC for the past 30 years. A life long artist, the creative path has meandered through art-to-wear, pen and ink drawing, collage and ultimately photography, exhibiting in venues both locally and internationally. Free lance writing and essays now take precedence. Outside interests include hiking, biking and exploring back streets and hidden enclaves unsullied by modern life.
Monica Torres was born in Cuba and moved to the Canary Islands with her family at ten months of age. After living the first three years of life in Spain, she moved to Miami, where she grew up.
