The Program of SCOPE Miami Beach
This year, SCOPE will collaborate with The Melech Collection, launched by six-time NBA All-Star Amar’e Stoudemire. Translating to “King”, The Melech Collection unites seemingly disparate audiences of sports and contemporary art. As the highlight of the fair, Stoudemire will curate a 40-foot installation as part of the Special Programs. Additionally, Stoudemire will conceptualize and lead a lively panel discussion in SCOPE’s Atrium, moderated by Sotheby’s.
SCOPE will also be working with Column Health’s Craft Guild to de-stigmatize addiction and raise awareness of treatment and recovery. The fair will present the collaborative exhibition between Column Health and the New York-based artist, Tom Fruin.
Titled unaffiliate.us, the exhibition presents a selection of works spanning Fruin’s critically-acclaimed career and addresses shared issues of de-stigmatizing addiction. The show will feature Fruin’s Quilt series composed of drug bags and other found detritus the artist collected throughout his exploration of New York City, as well as the ICON series, an extension of the quilted drug bags, with a re-imagined narrative, that transform mundane landscapes into vibrant expressions of humanity.
