Fort Lauderdale, FL, October 17, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Art Fort Lauderdale® - the “Art Fair on the Water” announces the launch of Fort Lauderdale Art & Design Week (Jan. 19 – 27, 2019). With Art Fort Lauderdale® as the centerpiece (Jan. 24 – 27), Fort Lauderdale Art & Design Week will bring together the city’s most prestigious institutions to feature select aligned programming, including museum exhibitions, artist studio tours, gallery openings, get-togethers, events, architectural walks, roundtables, professional encounters and more.
It will be a breeding ground for discovery, finding synergies and exchanging ideas, along with the parties, music, nightlife, and culinary experiences that make Greater Fort Lauderdale one of the best destinations in the world to visit in January.
In addition, Art Fort Lauderdale® will launch a new artCURATED exhibit which will encompass an entire luxury waterfront property and feature 40+ artists, within six distinct, thematic exhibitions, under the direction of guest curator Lisa Rockford. Also new to the fair, is an installation centric exhibit by Interactive Initiative, where the organization will take over an entire home with immersive projections, video, performance and interactive art by local and national contemporary artists. "As visitors meander through the waterfront property, they will enter zones of artistic practice that will envelop the viewer and challenge their sense of perception and reality," said Interactive Initiative | Director Jennifer Clay.
Furthermore as it enters into its third year, Art Fort Lauderdale® and the 1st annual AIA Architectural Fair (January 21-25, 2019) will strategically align their openings during Fort Lauderdale Art & Design Week, thereby helping to establish the city as an international cultural destination. In addition, Art Fort Lauderdale® will partner with Art N Soul for the Sistrunk-A-Fair - a weeklong event with the main event location at the African-American Research Library featuring a number of activations that include exhibits, performances, and films throughout the historical black communities of Broward County (January 20-26). Adding to this new addition, on January 24th the beauty of Broward's Black history will be highlighted at B.A.S.E. with work from local black artists and a screening of the short film, "Art beyond the tracks" about the black art scene in Broward County. And if that wasn't enough, the popular Fort Lauderdale Art Walk in FAT Village and MASS District will be taking place on Saturday, Jan 26th with special exhibits and surprises.
“The inaugural edition of Fort Lauderdale Art & Design Week will showcase the vast amount of cultural opportunities the city has to offer residents, collectors, dealers, art enthusiasts and visitors and also be a platform for research and promotion of the arts, its relationship to the community and discussions over contemporary art trends in the areas of the Arts, Architecture, Cinema, Dance, Music, and Theater,” said Art Fort Lauderdale® Co-Founder | Director Andrew Martineau. “This week will also help promote diversity, bring neighbors into dialogue, increase creativity, and offer opportunities to cultivate civic pride."
