Nestled atop the Viceroy’s 50th floor, Club 50 arguably offers the most dizzying views of the Big Orange stretching from Biscayne Bay to the Everglades. The snazzy joint also boasts the highest outdoor pool in the city and a lounge tricked out in marble floors and sumptuous turquoise leather sofas. And as if the chi-chi vibe and glam surroundings weren’t enough to make you swoon, the Viceroy has launched Art 50, a weekly artsy soirée every Tuesday night at 7 that features some of the 305’s best talent, curated by Annhy Shim and Erika Pastoriza.

This week, catch homeboy David Rohn starring in “Teddy Behr in the Garden of Delights,” in which the artist will channel Marcel Proust, Yves Saint Laurent, and Andy Warhol in a performance challenging gender constructs. Rohn will weave references to the comic strip character Superman, romantic poetry, some menswear, and audience interaction, stamping his unique spin on metrosexuality.
