FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

GRANDMA TAKE ME HOME:

Miami - Metro Color Collision proudly invites you to join us for "Grandma Take Me Home" in our home away from home at the Cavalier Hotel for the Frisbee Art Fair. We hope your stay is pleasant and our hospitality reminds you of your home, which quite frankly, is nothing like this is. You probably have a home, or something vaguely reminiscent of one, assuming you hold a distinct conception of what that notion really means. We thought we did until this exhibition reconfigured all those elementary notions of "home is where the heart is" or whatever other bullshit we so dearly embraced. Your mother still uses that four-letter word every time she calls: H-O-M-E. We decided to reinvent and recreate whatever that idea implies in the given space of our pseudo-home, the hotel room. In its very essence, the hotel room is the anti-thesis of home, a laboratory for curators to restructure the gathered artifacts. The barren walls - wallpaper or not - become the canvas for repositioning subtle reminders of familiar things loosely assembled to maintain that peaceful decorum that your mind longs for when conjuring up notions of that enchanted place. IF home is just another four-letter word that you employ because it's succinct, or better yet, completely a murky place because you never bothered planting roots, then our artists have the perfect antidote: their own version of home. Each featured artist comes from an entirely specific vista, recreating, reassessing and redistributing whatever distant memory, distinct object or singular moment that helps shape his or her perception of what four walls and a roof really means. Please join us for on the 1st floor of the Cavalier Hotel for some good times, happy stories and your own, personal home coming. After all, everyone needs one. We look forward to seeing you there.

Cavalier Hotel 1320 Ocean Drive Miami Beach, Florida Dec 1st - 4th
