October 2008. The Moore Space, Miami’s most prominent alternative art space, will close in October 2008. Founded by Rosa de la Cruz and Craig Robins to help broaden the Miami contemporary art scene, The Moore Space has garnered international acclaim for its high quality, cross-disciplinary exhibitions, its commissioned artist’s projects, its educational programming and its studio residency program.
The Moore Space has presented a number of innovative exhibitions, projects and performances featuring international and local artists including Hernan Bas, John Bock, Carlos Amorales, Jim Drain, Naomi Fisher, Allora and Calzadilla, Jeppe Hein, Aida Ruilova, Jim Lambie and Bert Rodriguez.

Cual es la razon de cerrar un espacio que ha sido tan maravillosamente util a la comunidad artistica en Miami, en momentos en que mas se necesitan proyectos serios para ayudar a la Florida a ser un lugar de continuidad en lugar de un lugar de paso?.
