The Teatrinos of Rodrigo de la Luz: art objects redeemable
The El Nuevo Herald article by Sarah Moreno, in Spanish, discusses the Los Teatrinos exhibition by artist Rodrigo de la Luz in Cremata Gallery in Little Havana.

Soothing Art Basel Heartbreak with a Couple Haikus

But the smooth-talking world is shipping out today, and the only way we know to deal with the heartbreak is through poetry. So we asked the authors of "Hialeah Haikus" to pen a few 5-7-5 verses for the so-to-be lovelorn 305. Go on now, Art Basel, walk out the door. Just turn around now, 'cause you're not welcome anymore.
