New to the SCOPE pavilion this year is The New Contemporary, an experiential multidisciplinary program located in our expanded Atrium. The New Contemporary will present daily programming featuring large scale installations, music performances, and panel discussions during the day while continuing our long-standing commitment to wellness. Guests are encouraged to attend morning healing programming and guided meditation, against the backdrop of beautiful South Beach. This multi-day destination will transform after-hours to a premium nightlife experience and feature world-class music talent at night.

Environmental artist Saype is known for his monumental fresco work on organic surfaces
on the ground using his own unique and eco- friendly paint composed of charcoal and chalk. He is considered a pioneer in his field and builds a bridge between traditional street art and land art, all while taking extra care to not harm the land he is working on. For SCOPE Miami Beach 2021, Saype will realize a spectacular installation such as Miami Beach has never seen before.

Joan Jiménez, AKA Entes, is a Lima, Peru-born artist who rose to prominence over the last two decades for his highly expressive murals and paintings. ENTES is one of Peru’s most highly acclaimed street artists, painting murals around the world and experimenting with both the medium and presentation of graffiti.

For SCOPE Miami Beach’s 20th Anniversary, the street art mainstay will transform SCOPE’s front entrance pavilion into a colorful portrait of Peru presented as a monumental foam sculpture, whose surface is created by using his unique mural-transfers replicated through a technique called Strappo.

As he’s developed his practice beyond graffiti and vibrant large scale murals, Entes has begun exploring new techniques that connect the viewer and the places which inspire him. One way he does this is through Strappo, a complex process which transfers murals or tags from walls he’s painted onto canvas, while preserving the original.

Nychos creates art from deep within his soul. Deeply rooted in Graffiti and shaped by the visual inputs of his early years, his work comprises murals, fine art, illustrations, sculptures, and animations.

By the means of anatomy, Nychos investigates the living species across different contexts and different media. His favorite tool is the spray can, his favorite surface is large. Questioning contrasts, he unifies looseness and accuracy. Severity and irony. The inner and the outer world. The dark and the bright. And most importantly, life and death. Within his oeuvre, one embraces the other. All becomes one.

100

Contemporary artist mister e, know globally for his iconic colorful interpretation of the US $100 bill, "Benny Jr." and the phrase "Money Isn't Real" will return once again to the Scope Art Fair for its 20th anniversary with another immersive installation that will take patrons on a journey to another universe. "100" is more than just a number to mister e. "100 is authentic, 100 is whole, 100 is the truth, 100 is real."

100 will be the first installation which will combine the physical and digital world, allowing the viewers to physically walk into an NFT. 100 will be mister e's debut NFT release.

Reminiscent of computer generated architectural models, Rashid Al Khalifa’s (1952) mobiles appear like sculptural blueprints, hovering in space and floating in time. These architectural apparitions are suggestive of the interconnectedness of cityscapes whereby the carefully considered assemblage of their foundational elements results in compositions where both interior and exterior worlds interlock, envelop and support one another. Rashid’s art practice stands as a contemporary tribute to traditional Middle Eastern design and architecture.

Derek Gores recycles magazines, maps, data and more in his lush collage pieces. The balance of detail and playfulness reveals Gores’ knack for discovery and for building seemingly endless puzzles into his works. Rearranging the scraps, he is able to form a sort of surrealist image, where from afar a nearly photo-realistic image comes into focus. However, as the viewer gets near, the small scraps reveal themselves to be other pictures, song lyrics, charts, patterns - and sweep your attention away down a new rabbit hole. Gores considers the viewing experience a mingling of the senses, where our memory is jogged and the image is no longer a static one - time might just be elapsing. Immersive since before it was a thing.

John Perello (JonOne) is fully aware of his past. His artistic expression grows out of it and marks the heart of his oeuvre. The artist works with his memories, his roots, his emotions, his life in general, and applies his very own history as the most important artistic tool.

Perello enlarges and stretches the letters, so that fewer lines and repetitions are visible. It seems as if he once again zooms into the tag paintings, crawls deeper into the texturing organisms, just to visualize how these paintings in all their detail are even more alive.

Butch Anthony is a contemporary, self-taught artist, maker, and collector of objects and antiques. He is the creator of the internationally recognized attractions including the Museum of Wonder, The World’s First Drive Thru Museum, and The Possum Trot, where his artwork can be admired and purchased by passersby.

In the early 1990's Anthony's started creating art using various media and techniques, crafting them into one-of-a-kind-masterpieces. Throughout a career spanning decade, the artist has created a specific genre of work he calls “Intertwanglelism”, an ism of his own creation.

The first “Bone Quilt” measured 84” X 84” was originally exhibited in “Inside/Out” Butch’s 2020 solo exhibition at the Halsey Institute in Charleston, SC.

Victor Castillo’s latest work Come Play With Us is being unveiled at SCOPE. Miami Beach’s 20th Anniversary marks the official release of the artist’s first life-size sculpture that was over a year in the making. Based on his paintings, the installation is an uncanny mix of pop culture and classical art that is Castillo’s signature.

The artist proof of the sculpture, made of fiberglass and steel, was entirely hand sculpted and painted in Los Angeles, California without the use of digital tools. Originally intended for Victor’s show Somewhere Over the Rainbow at Val Kilmer’s HelMel Studios gallery earlier in 2021, the new work for indoors or outdoors is a pleasure to behold.

Caledonia Curry, aka Swoon, is a Brooklyn-based street artist. Drawing on both realistic and fantastical elements, Curry has been transforming the world with her immersive installations, wheatpaste portraits, and community-based social justice projects for the last two decades.

While Curry’s work has adorned the walls of more classical institutions—including New York’s Museum of Modern Art, the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, and the Tate Modern—her overarching aim is always to create accessible art that transports audiences while simultaneously shedding light on pressing social and environmental issues. Most recently, she has begun exploring visual storytelling through film and
animation.

Curry on the digital initiative, “For the first time, I have created a body of work that lives on a screen. After so many installations that come apart after only so many people see them, I wanted to make something where what you see in pictures is what you were meant to see, not an after image of a “you had to be there moment”. It’s opened up so many avenues, and I’ve been enjoying figuring out the various ways that these works can be shown, from the traditional blacked-out theater space of a museum to the new ways that Superchief is exploring to share digital works.”

Logan Hicks deals with the urban landscape in his work. His intricate stenciled murals depict the nuances of city life that epitomize the urban existence. Based on pictures, Hicks creates stencils with usually more than five different layers, cut out piece-by-piece, and painted one on top of each other. The result is hyper-realistic works showing urban situations in an exceptional nocturnal light.

Relm is an oil painter and amateur sculptor born in Sarajevo, Bosnia and raised in NYC. Her work ranges from erotic dream-like and desolate settings to unique twists on basic portraiture. The beings she creates are innocent outcasts, exiled into their fairytale worlds. Every piece is a small glimpse into their destitute lives. Behind each set of doe eyes and pouty lips, there is a background full of diverse emotions and individual experiences to connect to.

ENTES (Joan Jimenez Suero) lives and works in Lima, Peru. With a long trajectory in the street art scene, his work has been displayed in Germany, France, Portugal, Spain, UAE, Cuba, Dominican Republic, and the American continent.

During his artistic practice, the roots in front of the gaze of that minority, of the other, have been evident; consequently, the presence of symbols and signs in relation to elements that coexist with a complex city such as Lima; violence, inequality, and above all social injustice, demand from the Latin American viewer a relationship of belonging to the city they inhabit in a current context

The transversal axis that the artist proposes in his work is to transfer from his interpretation, the dialogue that a city establishes with art, according to its own means of representation, such as posters, tags, scratches, phrases, etc.

ENTES has decided to step aside and leave the crossroads behind on a slightly different path, and we, its audience, are assisting in the development of its search. The artist takes fundamental elements of graffiti and does with them what he thinks he should do; whether the result is graffiti seems secondary. It is very clear where ENTES comes from, but not where it is going.

Without a doubt, his work has graffiti and its history as a context. In this framework, we find personal options such as the vindication of an Afro-Peruvian identity, and of a Hispanic-American identity within graffiti. Emerging from a context as harsh and difficult as that of New York graffiti of the 1970s, that of Lima and Callao, ENTES seems to have traveled almost the entire formal path of the genre.

He is considered a pioneer in his field and builds a bridge between traditional street art and land art, all while taking extra care to not harm the land he is working on. Saype’s work invites us to question our inner nature, our spirit, our place on Earth, and in society. His innovation and environmental care has skyrocketed him to international fame, and he was recently included in Forbes 30 under 30 list for art and culture.

Kathie Olivas is a multi-media narrative artist who resides in Algodones, NM. She began drawing portraits as a child and found an extreme love for creating from her imagination a world that did not exist in her own reality, often driven by her connection with the alter ego and reflective of her own experiences with a rare genetic disorder.

A dark blend of early American portraiture set in post-apocalyptic times, her paintings and sculptures are a satirical look at how fear affects our sense of reality. Her wide eyed children and anthropomorphic creatures are meant to evoke a nostalgic reaction that reflects isolation and uncertainty, yet they also act as empowered alter egos. While these characters explore their new lonely worlds, they double as our narrators capable of developing their own defense mechanisms.

This NFT VIP ticket will be presented by CTWF (Coloring The World Foundation), a foundation inspired by the philosophy of life and the vision of the world transmitted by the artist Okuda San Miguel, the foundation's honorary president, and ambassador.

Diana Sinclair is a Black queer teen creative based in New Jersey. Although experienced and awarded in many mediums, Sinclair is currently focusing on her video-portraiture and experimenting with new mediums. Her work chiefly focuses on identity and the social issues she’s surrounded by. Sinclair (b. 2004) has been engaging seriously in the arts since she was nine, with her first professional art show debut occurring at the age of fourteen. She has since studied several different mediums at institutions such as SVA, NYU, and the Academy of Art University. In November 2020 she was selected as a YoungArts 2021 Finalist in Photography.

After joining the NFT space early in the year, she established herself as one of the youngest curators in the metaverse by curating the global NFT exhibition “The Digital Diaspora” in June. This exhibit showed the weekend of Juneteenth at Superchief Gallery NFT in NYC, and has been covered by notable media like Teen Vogue, The Guardian, Hypebeast Art, and more.

Sinclair on the project, "SCOPE has long embraced the avant-garde in the art world, so I think it’s perfect that on their 20th anniversary they’ve taken on the new artistic landscape. This collaboration with SCOPE is a merge of both the physical and digital art spaces, which is not only exciting, but a display of how well the two can come together and what impact that will have on our future. I’m absolutely honored to be included in such a monumental show and participate in this movement through SCOPE."
