The exhibits at the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami are compelling collections that attempt to explore themes in new and interesting ways. For example, Sympathy for the Devil: Art and Rock and Roll Since 1967 takes a look at the connection between visual art and rock and roll from the 1960s until today, examining album covers and music videos, among other things, to find a correlation. The exhibition was organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art of Chicago and will be in Miami until September 7, 2008.
You can also make an appointment to see Pivot Points Part 2: New Mythologies, an exhibit on the creation of personal mythologies and stories by several artists and the ways in which it affects their work. These narratives give the artists? work storylines that are both fascinating and engrossing, and making an appointment to experience the exhibit is highly encouraged. You will not regret experiencing the exhibit, one which surpasses the average museum exhibit in scope and concept.
