you are here forever... is a group exhibition for Carol Jazzar´s unique exhibition space in Miami. Set in an iconic 1950's converted garage as well as in her private home and garden, this exhibition, curated by Omar Lopez-Chahoud, will present a fresh look at the work of ten international artists, most of them based in NYC.

Within the last ten years, Miami has received increasing attention as a winter hub for international art fairs and become more cosmopolitan with an influx of Latin American and European newcomers.

Four of the ten invited artists will be in residence at Carol Jazzar's space to produce new work in response to Miami­'s history and these urban developments, affording us the opportunity to explore the process from conceptualization to realization that are site specific to Miami.

In addition, six other artists have been selected by the curator to exhibit works ranging from video, drawings, paintings to sculptures.

Participating artists:

Hackworth Ashley
David Brooks
Ernesto Burgos
Franklin Evans
Greg Lindquist
Robert Melee
Renata Padovan
Edgar Serrano
Suzanne Stroebe
Pinar Yolacan
