Sincerely, &'j 1/ 73 f2•6t Dennis Leyva Art in Public Places Administrator City of Miami Beach February 24, 2017 To Whom it May Concern: The purpose of this letter is to provide a letter of recommendation for Christina Cuervo. I have known Christina the majority of my professional life and consider her both a close personal friend and professional colleague for whom I have an enormous amount of respect. In my experience as the Curatorial Director at international Corporate Art, 1 can attest to Christina's hard work, commitment and knowledge of Art, and particularly due to her experience in both the public and private sectors, Christina will serve with the utmost integrity. Christina is articulate, knowledgeable and will always act in our City's best interest. Christina will be an invaluable asset to the City's new art in public places board and I strongly recommend her application be favorably considered. Sincerely, Mariangela Cap Curatorial Director, ICArt ART in Public Places Application: 1. Describe the qualities, experience, expertise and abilities that you possess that r►uald make you an effective Art in Public Places board member that will act in the public interest, Over the past 30 years, I have been an active professional and volunteer member of our community and engaged in many social and civic boards. ON the professional side, during my years at the City of Miami Beach as an assistant City Manager, we expanded the City's ART in Public Places program establishing and enhancing the policies and procedures for managing City -initiated public art projects, for guiding developers who have an Art in Public Places requirement, and acting as the administration's liaison to the Bass Museum which at the time was led by Diane Camber. Additionally, in the cultural arts arena, I liaisoned with the various arts and cultural institutions that received grant funding from the City's various grant initiatives. 2. Describe your educational background and or general knowledge of the Arts. I attended Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart and graduated from high school in Zurich Switzerland and later attended and graduated from Georgetown University in 1986 with a Bachelor's of Science in Business Administration with a double major in Finance and International Business. I have dedicated my career to finance, real estate development and public service and all along continued my interest in the Arts as part of personal and professional endeavors. Art is apparent and incorporated in all aspects of my personal and professional projects. 3. Describe any prior community or personal involvement that you may have had that demonstrates interest in the Visual Arts, Public Art or the Performing Arts. Professionally, in the many real estate projects that I have participated as part of the development tempi, I have had an integral role in incorporating and attending to the art component of the project. Beginning with Apogee and the selections made by ownership and Yabu Pushelberg, the interior designer, I have had extensive experience integrating the art as part of the development and incorporating art in an architecturally significant way. For example, at One Ocean, I worked closely with Jose Bedia for the installation of artistic gates as the main entry gates to the project. Specifically, I coordinated the fabrication with a local vendor in order to save time and money. This parlayed into the City of Miami Beach doing a similar installation at South Pointe Pier with an artistic gate by Tobias Rehberger and his installation of the "eloquent south pointe park pier gate, 2014". 4. What is it about the Art in Public. Places Board that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? I believe my strengths and contributions to the Art In public Places Board will be to capitalize on my extensive knowledge and involvement in both the public and private sectors and my fiscal minded nature to effectively incorporate art into our City, its infrastructure and public facilities in way that best represents our diversity and the public's best interest. 5. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Board achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? The City of Miami is recognized as one of the most emerging and popular cultural destinations in the world, growing in significant recognition by both collectors, curators and artists themselves. My goal as a member of the Public Art Board would be to capitalize on the many assets of our community, both from the art and artists featured and the exposure this provides for the City to promote its cultural, social and economic vitality. Additionally, would like to continue to enhance the private sector's investment in public art in the many emerging neighborhoods and as an effective revitalization tool.

Describe the qualities, experience, expertise and abilities that you possess that would make you an effective Ad in Public Places board member that act in the public interest. I have worked both in the public and private sectors. The qualities I possess are persistence, patience and perseverance. I communicate easily and effectively. I work well in groups and believe in clear and simple solutions. I'm very process driven and not deterred by the constant and numerous obstacles I believe the path is as important as the outcome. f see the role of the board is to give voice to the public and provide the ears to listen. I currently serve on two boards, an IRB-A Board at the University of Miami and the Downtown Little Haiti Stakeholders Board. 2. Describe your educational background and or general knowledge of the Arts. I received a Bachelors of Art degree from Vassar College. I had a major in Psychology and minor in Art History. Vassar is where I started my study of painting. My Art & Architectural History coursework included Archaic Greek thru Hellenistic Art and Architecture, Romanesque thru Gothic Architecture and 20th Century Architecture. I wrote my final paper on the Le Corbusier & Jeanneret design for the League of Nations building. After graduation I moved to Boston and attended the Boston Architectural Center (BAC) and painting classes at Massachusetts College of Art and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. I have been a studio art painter since 1980. Since my time at Vassar, I have been an avid museum goer and have been to most of the great museums in America and Europe. 3. Describe any prior community or personal involvement that you may have had that demonstrates interest in the Visual Arts, Public Art or Performing Arts. I had a studio in Boston and when I moved to Miami Beach in 1988 I had a studio on Lincoln Road at the South Florida Art Center. I moved my studio to Allapatyah and continued there until 2012. I was interim Director of the SFAC after Ellie Schneiderman. In that capacity I Gary Feinberg March 10. 2017 organized the tiling of a Lincoln Road fountain by Carlos Alves, an exhibition of the paintings of Morris Lapidus and an Artist review panel, comprised of a curator, gallerist, historian and collector. I have organized solo and group exhibits of my work and the work of others including Purvis Young_ I have worked with the African Heritage Cultural Arts Center, the Little Haiti Cultural Arts Center. Miami Dade College and the Miami Dade Library and numerous private gallery shows. In August of 1990 I produced an outdoor performance of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' at the oval on Lincoln Road. The production had over 30 players and costom design by Barbara Hulanicki. The performance ran for three nights and was free and open to the public. 4. What is it about the Art in Public Places Board that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you. and why? When I asked my painting teacher Gerry Bergstein from the Museum School why painting. mattered, his response was that the world would be unimaginable without it.. The making of art is a human response, basic and profound.. That being said it should be fully integrated into daily lives, places and the fabric of our communities. As a board member l want to contribute to the repositioning of the overlooked or badly done public spaces. if a space doesn't inspire, it is a missed opportunity. { took a trash filled empty lot in Little Haiti and with the help of volunteers & an employee turned the lot into an edible garden that provides locally grown produce to restaurants, farmer's markets and direct off the land. The garden is not only a source of locally grown food but a place that welcomes volunteers and a reminder and connection to a place from the past that was nurturing and happy. 5. if Appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Board achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? I want to help transform misuse to use. # want to ignite the abandoned and activate the neglected public spaces. There's a lost generation of kids in Miami that are without hope and purpose. I would like to see this Board address the issues of alienation and exclusion. This Board needs to contribute to the growth of Miami and create beauty where there currently is none. With my background in art, architecture, greening, sustainability and design, 1 have the vision to help accomplish this mission. For a public and private project to be successful it needs early buy -in from the community members. Projects need to be authentic, appropriate and most importantly have context. The Board needs to be responsive to the community first and Gary Feinberg March 10, 2017 foremost. The best way to learn about a neighborhood is to walk it exploring the byways and highway and everything in between. It is essential that the Artists and the Board members have direct contact with the site, to have first hand experience with the people, the light and the colors. I will be an advocate to get out of the Board room and into the lives of the people that make this City.

We met when I was in charge of exhibitions and specials programs for the Miami -Dade Public Library System. One of the first projects that I worked on with him was an artists and exhibitions exchange between the African Heritage Cultural Arts Center and the South Florida Art Center. He and Marshall Davis developed the concept and I was delighted to be invited to curate the project Later he exhibited his own work at several of the public Iibraries. In addition to showing with the library, he also showed his work with Miami Dade College and in private galleries. Since I've known him he has been closely involved and supportive of other artists in South Florida. His Little Haiti Community Garden is a practical, beautiful operation and source of pride for that community. It is also evidence of his sensitivity to and appreciation of Miami's unique neighborhoods and their cultures. One of the major challenges to public art programs is to site important works and to create a sense of pride and ownership for the public who live and work where these objects will be experienced daily. With his background in art and his history of community involvement, Gary is appreciative of this challenge and the preciousness of cultural identity. He would be an ideal choice for the City of the Miami Art in Public Places project. Sincerely, Barbara N. Young Mallory Kauderer, Chairman Little River Business District Downtown Little Haiti Stalceholclers March 10, 2017 City of Miami Planning and Zoning Department Division of Art in Public Places To Whom 1t May Concern, Please accept this letter of recommendation in support of Gary Feinberg's application to the Art in Public Places Board. I've known Gary for over 25 years and first met as neighbors walking dogs on the Bayshore Golf Course, We each had a pack of dogs and would let them run in the early evenings on the empty course. At that time he was very involved with the burgeoning Artist group on Lincoln Road, He was a studio artist there and later became the Interim Director of the non-profit South Florida Art Center. In 1995 Gary and this wife opened Brownes & Co at 841 Lincoln Road. Brownes was a beauty emporium filled with beauty products from across the globe, hair and spa services and a yoga studio. It became a destination for locals, tourist and visiting celebrities. Part of the appeal was the old world vibe but in a tropical setting. The business is still open and is one of the few remaining locally owned and operated businesses in the Lincoln Road district, I know because my wife and daughter are regulars. Gary and a partner bought an empty lot in Little Haiti on NE 2" Avenue in 2004, In his inimitable way he transformed the abandoned trash filled lot into a food garden called the Little Haiti Community Garden, The garden: operates as sustainable intern business creating jobs, volunteer opportunities and a source for locally grown food. As a land and business owner Gary serves on the Downtown Little Haiti Stakeholders Board. He has become active in the Caribbean Marketplace Committee, which is working closely with the City to activate the Caribbean. Marketplace. Gary will be a valuable member to the Art in Public Places Board. Ile has worked in both the public and private sectors, has a background in the Arts and understands the role Art plays in the growth and emergence of Miami as one of the worlds greatest cities.

Describe the qualities, experience, expertise and abilities that you possess that would make you an effective Art in Public Places board member that will act in the public interest. Firstly, I would like to emphasize that even though I do not currently reside in the City of Miami, I am a property owner and developer in Miami, my wife and I both work in Miami, our son goes to school in Miami and the entirety of my professional interests are in Miami. I proudly consider myself an adopted Miamian, one of the qualities l believe necessary for the position. As executive director of Downtown Little Haiti Stakeholders, the property and business owners association of NE 2nd Avenue from 54th Street to 65th Street, and board member of Little River Business District Association, the larger business association in the area, I am intimately familiar with local board settings and function. From many experience, I learned early on the value of consensus building,, teamwork and just plain hard work, essential for the AIPP board to succeed. I have had frequent interaction with City of Miami and Miami -Dade County commissions and departments; and understand their process and operation very well. I would argue that local government and community experience are other assets that would make me an effective AIPP board member. My financial background will be useful when studying economic impacts of public art, valuation concepts, AIPP fund management, budget planning and structure and financial reports. I can also explain and apply legal concepts of use to the board. 2. Describe your educational background and or general knowledge of the Arts. I am a specialized corporate tax attorney, financial and business consultant, and securities trader, with over 15 years experience in complex negotiations and structured deals. I received my JD. degree from Universidad Catolica in Caracas, Venezuela, and my Masters of Law and Economics from the University of Chicago, where I attended with a full scholarship. Law and social sciences like economics have always been at a vital intersection with humanities and the arts. As Yale Law School former dean said: "Fortunately, it is impossible fully to understand law without a deep and sympathetic knowledge of the liberal arts." Though my academic background is not in the art field and I doubt 1 will ever fully understand law. I have always been a very passionate follower of the arts_ 3. Describe any prior community or personal involvement that you may have had that demonstrates interest in the Visual Arts, Public Art or the Performing Arts. I am executive director of Miami Mountains Foundation, a Little Haiti nonprofit under the fiscal sponsorship of The Miami Foundation, promoting public art, culture and community outreach to transform developing neighborhoods in South Florida. Our foundation was awarded the 2015 Public Space Challenge for the project "Ayiti, land of high mountains - In memory of victims of the Haiti earthquake", a public art intervention on the important median intersection at NE 2nd Avenue and NE 62nd Street, In addition, we worked closely with the Little Haiti Cultural Complex to host the largest pop-up art show in Little Haiti during Art Basel 2015, masterfully curated by Edouard Duval -Carrie; and worked with the Bayfront Park Management Trust on a temporary large-scale sculpture installation during Art Basel 2016 in homage to American master sculptor and Bayfront Park designer Isamu Noguchi. 4. What is it about the Art in Public Places Board that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? For years now, even before learning of the existence of the Miami AIPP ordinance, I have been studying and getting involved with public art in our City, I understand that public art enhances the aesthetic diversity of the city, and that public art is the most democratic form of art, free and open to all audiences. However, I believe that In addition, public art keeps kids off the streets, reduces crime, engages audiences, improves communities and measurably increases property prices. These community aspects, even more so than aesthetic considerations, are of great interest to me. I trust that I have a lot to contribute to the discussion of public art in my Little Haiti neighborhood and generally the greater City of Miami neighborhood and it would be an honor to serve on such an important board. 5. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Board achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? This first AIPP board will have the honor and exceptional responsibility of starting -up the long overdue AIPP program for the City of Miami, designing the very foundations of public art in Miami and processes for future board members to follow. A successful launch is a worthy goal in and of itself. In the longer term, I believe the AIPP Program and Board will be especially impactful for developing communities like Little Haiti, Overtown, Liberty City, Allapattah, East Little Havana, among others; allowing there to showcase their incredible creativity and opening these areas to new visitors, tourists and business traffic, improving existing conditions. To achieve this goal, the board should seek to install a diversified public artscape that addresses site -specific concerns, encouraging requirements that compel artists to profoundly study the site and gain an intimate, embodied knowledge of its diverse social uses through close community interaction. - r _' L7 FRANCISCO J.

Describe the qualities, experience, expertise and abilities that you possess that would make you an effective Art in Public Places board member that will act in the public interest. I have been a curator at Perez Art Museum (formerly Miami Art Museum) for over 11 years. I have organized nearly 40 exhibitions for the institution. Prior to PAMM/MAM, I worked for two years at the Museum of Art, Rhode Island School of Design, in Providence. Before that, I served as an intern in the Painting and Sculpture department of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. l would bring significant knowledge about modern and contemporary art and years of applicable experience to this position. I take pleasure in working with others in a collegial, deliberative manner. PlanningfAlPPI AIPP Board Application 2102/17 Page 1 of 5 2. Describe your educational background and or general knowledge of the Arts. I majored in Art History at Swarthmore College and earned a Master's degree in the same subject at Brown University. I possess a strong grasp on modern and contemporary art, attained through years of deep study and rigorous research. I have extensive experience and know-how with respect to ambitious art installations, including t e budgetary and logistical challenges involved. Over the years, I have built up an expansive international network of colleagues and contacts within the field of modern and contemporary art, from curators, educators and other museum professionals to scholars, critics, gallerists, dealers, and, of course, artists. 3. Describe any prior community or personal involvement that you may have had that demonstrates interest in the Visual Arts, Public Art or the Performing Arts, For approximately 10 years I have served (pro bone) on the Professional Advisory Committee for the Miami -Dade County Art in Public Places program, working closely with Michael Spring and his team. 1 am an active member of this committee. Over the years I have Participated in the selection of innumerable Projects for the County's PAC. Through this service I have learned valuable lessons regarding the particular challenges and opportunities involved in large-scale public art projects. Moreover, I grew up in Miami (in the Little Havana/Shenandoah area), and have an acute sense of the needs and expectations of local audiences. garnered over many years of experience in bringing art to this city's diverse constituents. It has been immensely gratifying for me to witness the impact that my efforts and contributions have had on the local cultural (and literal) landscape. 4. What is it about the Art in Public Places Board that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? Having already accomplished a great deal within the somewhat rarified, relatively self -enclosed domain of institutional art spaces, ] look to the idea of selecting and commissioning artwork for the public sphere as an exciting proposition. This proposition involves a different approach from the one normally taken within the context of a museum setting, in which one is rnore able to couch the way a given artwork is understood and recceived by means of accompanying texts, lectures, tours, and other public outreach programs. Art in the public realm involves a very direct communicatory relationship between the art object and the viewer, representing distinct challenges. For me, participating in this AIPP initiative would, in this sense, offer an exciting growth opportunity. 5, If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Board achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? I am especially interested in the idea of adding public artworks to Museum Park, in concert with Perez Art Museum Miami and Frost Science Museum. The site holds tremendous potential (see, for example, Mlllenlum Park in Chicago, and the stimulatory effect it has had on the city's downtown). At the same time, large public sculptures inevitably entail a significant commitment and come with a miniscule margin for error. The potential of this site will only be realized by means of deliberations by able decision -makers with expertise and with the proper resources at their disposal. I would be honored to lend my knowledge and experience toward this important effort. Of course, I am would also be extremely interested in bringing public art to other sites throughout the City of Miami. As a native Miamian with a strong under- standing of this complex city's unique spirit and social, demographic, and physical conditions, I feel that I would be ideally positioned to lend a valuable perspective.

Rene is deeply knowledgeable about contemporary art, and he is very sensitive to the importance of bringing art out into the public sphere. His tastes and interests are broad, combining a refined aesthetic sensibility with the conviction that art can and should serve as a catalyst for social change and as a vehicle for community -building. Rene is exceedingly hard-working, competent, versatile, and dedicated. Combined with a decision -making style that is both thoughtful and resolute, these qualities make for a highly effective worker and team member. Rene is by nature extremely considerate and respectful toward others and he conducts himself with utter professionalism at all times. Further, as a Miami native Rene has a deep understanding of the complicated dynamics that energize this city and with it a strong sense of the ways in which art can be used to benefit its unique and diverse communities. In short, I have no doubt that Rene would make an excellent board AIPP member and I could not recommend him with more enthusiasm or confidence.

For the past five years I have been a member of the Miami -Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs Professional Advisory Committee and for the past year I have been a member of the Corai Gables Arts Advisory Panel. I constantly visit artists' studios and meet with art students at New World School of the Arts, FIU, University of Miami, Miami Dade College and Broward College. 4. What is it about the Art in Public Places Board that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? In my role as museum director I commission artists to crease compelling, innovative, and large-scale artwork installations that are site specific. 5. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Board achieve, and why? How would, you suggest accomplishing this? Unlike artwork inside of a museum's walls, a city's public art is experienced by millions of people and should elevate and'enncti residents and visitors engagement with the city. Public art is the most prominent display of a city's engagement with and commitment to contemporary culture. Too often public art fails to activate, communicate with, challenge and educate its massive audience. The artists selected, whether From Miami or abroad, young or old, known or unknown, should be of the highest caliber and most critically, the Public Art Board must make sure the artist selected understands the specific nature and needs of the Miami community, our cultural landscape, the site where the art will exist and the need to work within the projects budget. The Public Art Board must make certain that the artwork resonates resoundingly for generations to come.

Mr. Roselione-Valadez joined the City of Coral Gables' Arts Advisory Panel in March, 2016. He was sought out as the highly regarded director of one the Country's leading privately owned art collections, the RubeIl Family Collection, and for having the experience of contributing to similar public art panels such as the Miami -Dade County Art in Public Places Professional Advisory Committee. Since joining the Coral Gables Arts Advisory Panel, Mr. Roselione-Valadez's professional background has been invaluable. He provides well-educated, informed, and insightful feedback that positively contributes to the sometimes complex review of public art proposals. At the Rubell, Mr. Roselione-Valadez leads a collection that is at the forefront of contemporary art and has a long-standing reputation for prolific curation and selection of artists and artworks. This type of experience, cultivated over many years of hands-on involvement, is something difficult to come by in any city. Essentially, I have found Mr. Roselione-Valadez's perspective to be incisive, while understanding the intricacies of our diverse community. He would do the same -for the City of Miami and have the City's best interest at heart in the development of its public art collection. As a resident, I'm thrilled that future public artworks may have his input. Mr. Roselione-Valadez has my highest recommendation to serve on this Board and I look forward to hearing of the first artworks commissioned by the City of Miami. Sincerely, Catherine J.
