ángeles veloces arcanos fugaces & DeXtinction
As part of its mission to maintain culture at the heart of Faena District, Faena invited the community to Second Sundays at Faena Forum, where two monumental site-specific installations took over the OMA-designed building for Miami Art Week.
Faena Forum was taken over by two monumental site-specific installations that together convert the entire building into an immersive, multi-sensory experience.
Guests of all ages were invited to roller dance over a literal work of art with “ángeles veloces arcanos fugaces,” an immersive, participatory and site-specific art installation created by contemporary artist duo assume vivid astro focus (avaf). This immersive work re-imagined the traditional roller rink as part of Faena’s mission to curate community-based cultural programming.
Together with the site-specific installation, “DeXtinction,” Faena Forum transformed into an experience that brings the audience from heaven to the garden of earthly delights, from the realm of ancestors towards an idyllic and utopian future, from the ashes and the dush to the disco inferno.
