During Miami Art Week 2025, The Betsy Hotel’s Exhibitions Program — curated by owner Lesley Goldwasser — will present a collection of 38 limited-edition works by Christo and Jeanne-Claude, many of them photographed by their longtime collaborator, Wolfgang Volz.
The exhibition will open at The Betsy Gallery on December 4, 2025, at 10 PM, and is free and open to the public.

About the Artists & the Exhibition

Christo and Jeanne-Claude invited the world to re-imagine familiar landscapes by transforming them through monumental environmental installations. Their projects — visionary, complex, and often controversial — required years of negotiation, engineering, and public engagement, making the process as significant as the final work.

Photographer Wolfgang Volz served as the primary documentarian and close collaborator for more than 50 years. His photographs not only capture the visual poetry of each large-scale installation, but also the temporal, political, and environmental realities surrounding their creation. His work preserves these once-temporary artworks long after their physical disappearance, allowing audiences to continue experiencing them in new ways.

Featured Works

The exhibition includes iconic images from global projects such as:

Surrounded Islands – Biscayne Bay, Miami (1983)
The Pont Neuf Wrapped – Paris (1985)
Wrapped Reichstag – Berlin (1995)
and more

Surrounded Islands – Miami, 1983

Installed in Biscayne Bay, the work surrounded 11 islands with 603,870 square meters (6.5 million sq. ft.) of floating pink woven polypropylene fabric, extending 61 meters (200 feet) from each shoreline. The material was cut and sewn into 79 custom patterns to follow the contours of the islands.

For two weeks in 1983, the piece was visible from land, sea, and air — from Bakers Haulover Cut to the Venetian Causeway — transforming the bay into a vast, immersive, color-saturated artwork that remains one of Miami’s most legendary cultural moments.

More about The Betsy Hotel

As the anchor of the arts in Miami Beach, The Betsy Hotel is committed to artistic excellence year-round, serving as a cultural destination with a rich tapestry of initiatives designed to make art accessible and engaging for everyone. In fact, The Betsy is the only non-museum institution that is included in Miami Beach’s Culture Crawl. The Betsy houses permanent art galleries in nearly all of its communal spaces—from the hallways to the elevators and staircases—featuring works curated by The Betsy’s co-owner Lesley Goldwasser. Highlights include “The Betsy Orb,” an egg-shaped architectural marvel that functions as a bridge connecting the hotel’s two buildings, and “The Poetry Rail,” an installation of poetry etched into metal by water jets, celebrating the contributions of 12 writers who have shaped Miami culture. The Betsy’s Arts & Community Engagement Program also offers more than visual arts, with live jazz performances nine times a week, classical music pop-ups, poetry readings and an acclaimed artist residency program, which has hosted more than 1,500 writers and creatives.

The ReefLine: Miami’s Underwater Art Park

The ReefLine: Miami’s Underwater Art Park

By Angela Caraway-Carlton

Art is going deep in Miami Beach. Step outside of the traditional art gallery on land and slip on your snorkel mask and fins to swim The ReefLine, an environmental art activation that will soon adorn the ocean floor in Miami Beach. Located 600 feet offshore, the new underwater public sculpture park will stretch seven miles beginning at 4th Street in South Beach and running north along the coastline of Surfside and Bal Harbour. It’s more than a snorkel trail; the submerged artwork also doubles as an artificial reef meant to create much-needed habitats for marine life. Whether you’re an art lover or a water enthusiast, get ready to take the plunge when The ReefLine opens in phases beginning October 2025.

See Reefline being deployed

The launch event takes place Tuesday, October 21 at 1 p.m. on the beach between 4th and 5th streets, marking the historic first deployment of the project.

What You Can Expect To See

Expect to view artwork by renowned artists from around the globe, which will be unveiled in several phases. This October, The Reefline will unveil its first installation by Argentinian conceptual artist Leandro Erlich’s “Concrete Coral,” which is a new version of his expansive sand installation portraying a 60+ car traffic jam that was on view on the beach during Miami Art Week in 2019. Now, a similar traffic jam of 22 cars and trucks will congregate on the ocean floor, symbolizing the emissions that threaten our planet (and hopefully, sparking environmental awareness and change). The installation will be submerged 15-20 feet underwater at 4th street, doubling as a vital habitat for coral growth. Using Coral Lok, a patented attachment system, live corals are seeded onto the cars to fast-track reef development, transforming symbols of emissions into catalysts for regeneration.

Another eye-catching module that’s sure to be a heavenly underwater home for marine life will be British artist Petroc Sesti’s giant sculpture called “Heart of Okeanos,” which mimics the heart of a stranded blue whale. Also, Miami-based artist Carlos Betancourt will create a trail of large-scale starfish titled “Miami Reef Star” that will sprinkle the entirety of The ReefLine. It’s based upon a childhood memory of experiencing a starfish migration while snorkeling in Puerto Rico.

Swim The ReefLine’s Art Crawl

Think of it as an underwater art crawl. No boat or bulky scuba gear is needed – you can simply swim out from the shore to see and interact with the submerged sculptures that line the trail. Much of the artwork raises awareness of the delicate marine ecosystem and often presents a thought-provoking call to action for sustainability. The ReefLine not only offers a free and accessible way for the public to view art, but it presents the chance for snorkelers to experience Miami’s rich array of sea life, from colorful fish to sea turtles.

The ReefLine’s Purpose

The ReefLine intermingles art, science and conservation, and ultimately uses art as a tool for change. In recent years, coral has become bleached or has died off, which is largely attributed to global warming. To combat these destructive changes in the ocean, artists have created sculptures made of environmentally friendly materials that aim to support coral growth and create new habitats for marine life. “We are rebuilding what was there,” says Ximena Caminos, “and providing a platform for nature to thrive.”

A Deep Dive Into The ReefLine’s Masterplan

The ReefLine was imagined by Ximena Caminos, a Miami resident who is a champion for out-of-the-box arts and culture as well as a big supporter of organizations that promote ocean conservation and fight climate change. (Caminos was also the artistic planner behind The Underline, a 10-mile park and urban trail that weaves below the tracks of the Metrorail.)

Recognizing the need to replenish and protect Miami Beach’s all-important coral reefs and marine ecosystem that are dying or disappearing due to unprecedented warmer waters, Caminos came up with a brilliant idea: drop artificial reefs that double as art along the ocean floor. She teamed up with marine biologist Colin Foord, the founder of Coral Morphologic, and they submitted a grant proposal for the Knight Foundation Arts Challenge Award. In 2019, their creative idea won the seed money needed to bring the project to life underwater.

It takes a village to create a seven-mile underwater sculpture park, and the visionaries collaborated with the City of Miami Beach and the Office of Metropolitan Architecture (OMA), among others, to craft The ReefLine master plan.

Expect to have a different experience each time you dive under the water. You never know what marine friends will be taking their own art walk.

Georgia O’Keeffe: The Courage to See Differently

Georgia O’Keeffe: The Courage to See Differently

Are you curious about what makes Georgia O’Keeffe’s art distinctive and daring? Few artists in modern history have expressed such a bold and personal vision of the world. O’Keeffe’s art invites us to look closer, question our perceptions, and see beauty in often overlooked forms.

Her fearless style was shaped by the modernist movement, which encouraged artists to break free from the constraints of academic tradition. O’Keeffe embraced this spirit of innovation, using vibrant colors, sweeping lines, and monumental close-ups of natural forms—flowers, bones, landscapes—to create intimate and monumental compositions. Through these works, she transformed ordinary subjects into potent symbols of emotion, vitality, and sensuality.

Beyond her technical mastery, O’Keeffe’s personal journey profoundly influenced her art. Her decision to live and work independently, first in New York and later in New Mexico, gave her the space to explore her vision without compromise. The desert’s vast landscapes and radiant light became her sanctuary—where she could merge nature, abstraction, and spirit into one unified language of form and color.

Her husband, Alfred Stieglitz, a pioneering photographer and art promoter, played a key role in her early career. His support and belief in her talent helped O’Keeffe gain confidence and recognition, yet she always maintained her artistic independence. She refused to be defined by anyone else’s interpretation of her work, insisting that each painting spoke for itself.

Georgia O’Keeffe’s boldness came from her authenticity—from daring to see the world on her own terms. Her legacy inspires artists to trust their instincts, embrace individuality, and find the extraordinary within the familiar.

Whether you’re an art enthusiast or a curious learner, O’Keeffe’s journey reminds us that courage in art often begins with the courage to be oneself.

How Does Cubism Use Geometric Abstraction?

How Does Cubism Use Geometric Abstraction?

Have you ever wondered how artists transform everyday objects into captivating works of art? Few movements in art history demonstrate this transformation as powerfully as Cubism, a revolutionary style that redefined how we see and represent the world.

Cubism emerged in the early 20th century through the visionary experiments of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, who around 1907–1908 began to challenge traditional ideas of perspective and realism. Their goal was not to reproduce what they saw, but to reveal the inner structure of reality through form, line, and geometry.

At the heart of Cubism lies geometric abstraction — the use of simple geometric shapes such as cubes, cones, and spheres to break down complex objects into fundamental components. Instead of depicting a single viewpoint, Cubist artists combined multiple perspectives within a single image, inviting viewers to see an object from different angles simultaneously. This analytical approach created compositions that were dynamic, layered, and intellectually engaging.

As the movement evolved, artists shifted from Analytic Cubism, with its muted palette and intricate fragmentation, to Synthetic Cubism, which introduced collage elements, textures, and brighter colors. This second phase simplified forms and emphasized construction over deconstruction, giving rise to a new visual language that blurred the boundaries between painting, sculpture, and design.

Cubism’s emphasis on geometry and structure profoundly influenced modern art, architecture, and design. It encouraged artists to move beyond surface appearances and to explore the essence of form. From the angular facades of modernist buildings to the rhythmic compositions of abstract painters, the legacy of Cubism endures.

Whether you’re an art enthusiast or a curious learner, understanding Cubism helps us appreciate how geometric abstraction reshapes not only our perception of art but also how we interpret the world around us.

Berghain — Rosalía (feat. Björk & Yves Tumor)

Berghain — Rosalía (feat. Björk & Yves Tumor)

La canción “Berghain” abre la nueva era del cuarto álbum de Rosalía, Lux (7 de noviembre de 2025), y lo hace con ambición maximalista y riesgo creativo. En colaboración con Björk y Yves Tumor, este tema se erige como una audaz fusión entre pop, ópera, electrónica y música de cámara. LOS40+1

Arquitectura sonora y lenguas entrecruzadas

El título remite al mítico club berlinés Berghain — una catarsis del clubbing, la disolución del yo y la espiritualidad nocturna — que sirve aquí como metáfora de una metamorfosis interior. Cadena SER+1
La voz de Rosalía recorre fragmentos en alemán (“Seine Angst ist meine Angst…”), en español (“Yo sé muy bien lo que soy…”) y en inglés, mientras Björk aporta un clímax vocal arrebatado y Yves Tumor, con su frase repetida (“I’ll fuck you till you love me”), introduce el pulso furioso del techno. El resultado es una experiencia multilingüe, multicapas, turbia y liberadora. LOS40+1

Materialidad, ritual y cuerpo

La producción gravita entre los violines orquestales que recuerdan a Vivaldi y una percusión que remite a The Rite of Spring. Rosalía disuelve su registro pop en un formato ritual: no solo canta, sino que se convierte en protagonista de un escenario de transformación. Pitchfork
La referencia al club Berghain —espacio mítico de disolución y euforia— trasciende lo superficial: la pista se vuelve altar, el ritmo devenido plegaria. Aquí, deseo y redención conviven desde lo sensorial.

Evaluación crítica

“Berghain” posee momentos de magnitud sonora irregular: mientras su tensión dramática y escala orquestal impactan, algunos críticos señalan que la provocación opera más en el plano del concepto que en el del mensaje profundo. exclaim.ca Aun así, la canción marca un hito en la evolución de Rosalía: deja atrás el sonido urbano-experimental de Motomami y se eleva hacia una estética de máximo riesgo y teatro sonoro. Pitchfork

Con “Berghain”, Rosalía no ofrece simplemente un single: propone un rito musical que interroga la identidad, el cuerpo, el deseo y el espacio simbólico de la noche. Es una obra fragmentada, fascinante, que exige al oyente abandonar la comodidad. En ese tránsito —precisamente— está su valor.

Rosalía – “Berghain” (feat. Björk & Yves Tumor)
