Local artist Aholsniffsglue's signature eyeballs splack the side of a warehouse facing I-95 in Wynwood. Inside, the Margulies Collection's "New Exhibition" will leave your optics in the same wide-eyed state of wonder. The show is programmed by longtime Margulies curator Katherine Hinds to "activate the space" via video works and massive sculptures. Walk into the first room of the show and two giant stones smash your notion of indoor objects into smithereens while several videos play across the space. Just beyond, over 250 photos, paintings, and videos address the continent of Africa. Further in is the work of Michelangelo Pistoletto, a glass-smashing wild thinker. To top it all off, there's a special theater showing the animated works of Brian Alfred. His music-collaborative video work depicts a familiar urban world full of graffiti and power lines.
Wednesdays-Saturdays, 11 a.m. Starts: Feb. 9. Continues through April 30, 2011
