  • Florida Jewish History Month January
    Florida Jewish History Month January Background Information In October of 2003, Governor Jeb Bush signed a historic bill into law designating January of each year as Florida Jewish History Month. The legislation for Florida Jewish History Month was initiated at the Jewish Museum of Florida by, the Museum's Founding Executive Director and Chief Curator, Marcia Zerivitz. Ms. Zerivitz and State Senator Gwen Margolis worked closely with legislators to translate the Museum's mission into a statewide observance. It seemed appropriate to honor Jewish contributions to the State, as sixteen percent, over 850,000 people of the American Jewish community lives in Florida. Since 1763, when the first Jews settled in Pensacola immediately after the Treaty of Paris ceded Florida to Great Britain from Spain, Jews had come to Florida to escape persecution, for economic opportunity, to join family members already here, for the climate and lifestyle, for their health and to retire. It is a common belief that Florida Jewish history began after World War II, but in actuality, the history of Floridian Jews begins much earlier. The largest number of Jews settled in Florida after World War II, but the Jewish community in Florida reaches much further into the history of this State than simply the last half-century. Jews have actively participated in shaping the destiny of Florida since its inception, but until research of the 1980s, most of the facts were little known. One such fact is that David Levy Yulee, a Jewish pioneer, brought Florida into statehood in 1845, served as its first U.S.

  • FIU Museums Go Virtual

MIAMI (March 19, 2020) — As FIU’s three museums join museums around the world in temporarily closing their doors in response to the coronavirus pandemic, they continue to offer inspiring, compelling and educational content to the community via virtual tours, digital content and social media outreach. At Frost Art FIU, curatorial, educational and content teams are working together virtually to bring their members, supporters and art fans, entertainment, refuge and education. The museum has highlighted the following virtual tours: • Deconstruction: A Reordering of Life, Politics, and Art presents the work of twelve Miami-based artists who interrogate varying notions of deconstruction in their work. • Spheres of Meaning: An Exhibition of Artists' Books presents a range of artists' books from manipulated texts to new narrative forms and books presented as sculptures. • Cut: Abstraction in the United States, from the 1970s to the Present explores a multigenerational group of artists who challenged painting surfaces with cuts, carvings, and indentation. For some this gesture has been politically motivated; for others, it represents a bold and dynamic investigation into materiality. Alongside virtual tours, the museum will offer new weekly newsletters and social media content, which will include a behind-the-scenes look at museum staff, games and activities for families to do at home, and video montages of current exhibitions.

  • Full Arts and Economic Prosperity III Study
    Arts & Economic The Economic Impact of Nonprofit Arts .rMI Culture Organizations and Their Audience From the iconic images of the Florida Highwaymen to the museums that preserve and collect our history, arts and culture define us. They improve quality of life for Floridians and visitors to our state. The arts and culture inspire creativity and lifelong learning, build strong communities, and build a strong network for leadership that encourages a stronger Florida. The findings of The Arts and Economic Prosperity III reveal that, in addition to these innumerable benefits, arts and culture bring economic vitality to our state. This study reveals that the cultural industry is important to economic prosperity. In Florida, arts and culture mean business. With more than $3 billion in total direct expenditures into the Florida economy in 2008, arts and culture are sound investments in Florida’s future. In the pages to follow, you will read about the many ways that arts and culture are good news for those looking to strengthen Florida’s economy. Leaders in Florida are supportive of arts and culture because they have helped to bring new businesses and ventures to our state. In today’s competitive global marketplace, arts and culture can play an important role in attracting high-wage jobs and a creative workforce. The Arts and Economic Prosperity III expands that notion. Not only can the cultural industry play its important part in attracting business critical to economic recovery, this industry contributes directly to economic activity, supports jobs, and returns revenue to local and state government. The return on investment number speaks for itself.

    Media Contact: Meg Floryan Head of Marketing + PR [email protected] | 305.535.2622 The Wolfsonian–FIU Announces New Curator Shoshana Resnikoff Resnikoff joins Wolfsonian curatorial staff as of November 2017 MIAMI BEACH (November 29, 2017) — The Wolfsonian–Florida International University has appointed Shoshana Resnikoff as curator, expanding its curatorial team to four effective November 6, 2017. Most recently an assistant curator for exhibitions and research at the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM), Resnikoff brings expertise in American decorative arts and design as well as experience with fashion, contemporary art, and digital projects, including two Google Cultural Institute collaborations. She will work directly with Wolfsonian associate director of curatorial & education Jon Mogul and her colleagues to re-conceptualize the museum’s permanent collection display, organize special exhibitions, and create new avenues for research support at FIU. “Shoshana’s insights about our collection, in addition to her very evident enthusiasm for The Wolfsonian and its mission, are incredible assets,” said Mogul. “I have no doubt that she will play a vital part in helping the museum achieve many new successes in the coming years.” “We are fortunate to have Shoshana join us at The Wolfsonian,” added director Tim Rodgers. “Her deep interest in American art and material culture will strengthen our curatorial team, while her educational and curatorial background are truly an ideal fit for the vast and varied collection of the museum. We look forward to her future exhibitions, which I am certain will convey her keen intelligence, remarkable training, and quick sense of humor.” Prior to PEM, Resnikoff was a curatorial associate for the Terra Foundation for American Art and served as a collections fellow with the Cranbook Center for Collections and Research.
