Within Interdependence features works by 20 emerging artists, all YoungArts award winners from the past 15 years. Curated by United States Artists President & CEO Deana Haggag, the exhibition weaves together works that focus on each artist's connection to their bodies in a rapidly changing ecological, metaphysical and social world. While entering from numerous vantage points, each selected work in the exhibition attempts to draw out what inherently connects us to ourselves, the people around us, and the lands we live on.

Dust My Eyes With Diatomaceous Earth
Installation by Lee Pivnik
On view through December 31
Parc Space at Bay Parc Apartments
1756 N. Bayshore Drive, Miami
Free and open to the public
Dust My Eyes With Diatomaceous Earth by Miami-based interdisciplinary artist Lee Pivnik (2014 YoungArts Winner in Visual Arts) presents a series of intimate gouache paintings and embellished ceramics, decorated to mimic a process of biological ornamentation. Made in anticipation of a future installation that will take place in a dilapidated limestone building constructed in 1936 at Matheson Hammock Park, the works reference the structure's decay in perfect harmony with global ecological catastrophe, and serve as a point of departure for Pivnik's speculations on what things might germinate from this rot.
National YoungArts Foundation Campus Tours
December 6 - 8, 10AM daily
2100 Biscayne Boulevard, Miami
Tours will begin in the YoungArts Gallery.
Free and open to the public
National YoungArts Foundation's iconic national headquarters-featuring The Tower building designed by Cuban architect Enrique Gutierrez known for its contemporary azulejo murals by artist Francisco Brennand and The Jewel Box designed by Ignacio Carrera-Justiz with its renowned stained glass "tapestry" exterior-has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Previously granted a historic designation by the City of Miami Preservation Board in 2009, the colorful buildings are widely admired as outstanding examples of tropical modernism.
In celebration of this prestigious designation, YoungArts will open the campus to the public for regularly scheduled free architecture and art tours. Visitors will be able to learn more about the unique architectural, historical and cultural significance of the buildings, as well as how YoungArts has transformed the campus into a multidisciplinary arts facility for artists from around the country to create, develop and present their work.
Tours will kick off during Miami Art Week with daily tours from Friday, December 6 until Sunday, December 8, starting at 10AM in the YoungArts Gallery. Regularly scheduled free tours will begin in January 2020 and take place on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month.
