Art, Cultural Excursions and Diverse Perspectives

Art Adventures Around Town

Faena Rose provides exclusive art experiences, offering members rare opportunities to explore the creative process beyond gallery walls. These experiences include intimate, behind-the-scenes access that connects members with artists in their creative environments. This past summer, members enjoyed an immersive social mixer at The Bass, which included a private tour of Social Assembly, followed by a discussion on art and social connection, along with cocktails amidst engaging installations. They received an early look at She’s A Knockout at The Lowe, a powerful exhibition focused on femininity, gender, and women in sports. The event included a guided tour and a lively Q&A session. Members also previewed new work by Cornelius Tulloch at Andrew Reed, learning about his mixed-media creations and gaining insights into his reflections on culture and identity. Exploring Allapattah’s burgeoning art spaces, they had a private viewing of To Weave the Sky at El Espacio 23 and engaged with resident artists, exploring diverse perspectives and art practices. An exclusive studio visit with Gonzalo Fuenmayor offered members an up-close view of his monumental charcoal drawings, providing insights into his technique and inspiration.

Recent Programming Highlights

Faena Rose’s programming fosters connections and deepens members’ appreciation for diverse topics. Members were moved by a screening of Mountain Queen, featuring Lhakpa Sherpa, the female world-record holder for the most summits of Mt. Everest, with 10 successful climbs. The screening was followed by a Q&A session with Lhakpa and her family. A conversation with artist Calida Rawles provided insight into her groundbreaking exhibition at the Pérez Art Museum Miami, which explores social themes through hyperrealistic paintings of human figures in water. Additionally, members enjoyed an evening with dynamic photographer Tony Kelly, who discussed his latest book, Miami. Attendees laughed throughout the night as Tony shared stories from behind the lens and left with signed copies of the book.

Cultural Immersion

Faena Rose’s Cultural Excursion trips blend local art, cuisine, and culture, creating unforgettable experiences through curated activities, luxurious accommodations, and insider access. During the recent excursion to Seoul for Frieze Seoul 2024, members visited artist studios, explored collections, and attended the opening of Anicka Yi’s exhibition. Upcoming trips will include explorations of Lima and Cusco’s rich her itage, Havana’s vibrant energy, and 2025 adventures such as skiing in Courchevel and a return trip to Buenos Aires, the birthplace of Faena.
