The City of Miami Beach and the Miami Design Preservation League invite the public to celebrate the centennial anniversary of the 1925 Paris expo that introduced Art Deco to the world and heralded the golden age of tropical art deco in Miami Beach with a new outdoor exhibit, “100 Years of Art Deco: A World Celebration in Miami Beach.”
A grand opening event will be held on Thursday, June 12 at 6 p.m. in Lummus Park at the Galería Ocean Drive, located at 1101 Ocean Dr. The display features over 160 art deco images, including photos from around the world and images highlighting Miami Beach’s unique tropical style.
Curated by the Office of Mayor Steven Meiner and Commission, the exhibit takes visitors on a journey through art deco, exploring its influence on interior design, fashion, graphic design and modern design — all featured on 34 weatherproof panels displayed in Lummus Park. The free exhibition will also feature several Instagrammable installations.
