Such an Inspiration

Rosa de la Cruz, Miami Art Collector




One of the best and greatest highlights during Miami Art Basel , was the pleasure of meeting and having a conversation using my native language with Rosa de la Cruz, A Miami Force of Nature, Art Collector during the opening of her brand new De La Cruz Collection Contemporary Art Space.

From the minute I walked into this amazing space, I felt her presence and surely enough, saw this petite but, strong presence reining above the offices designed to look into the main lobby.Immediately, I knew it was her.

This is a great new destination in Miami to visit so while down there , where the weather , the food and the coffee almost made me stay, make sure you visit this collection. They have among many great things works by Ana Mendieta and Felix Gonzalez- Torres.

Gone Fishing...!

Ruben Natal-San Miguel

Well folks, it is that time of the year and one of my favorite for several reasons:

1. Miami Art Basel 2009

2. Is that I am lucky enough to be showing my work @ + Kris Graves Projects , AQUA Art Fair (nervous but very, very excited!)

3. The chance to see great works ,catch up and socialize with friends and colleagues from the art business.

4. The weather, the real coffee, food, the warm smiles, the hot bodies, the sensuality that Miami offers.

5. A Swimming Pool and the Ocean...Yes!

6. December 6, 2009 birthday !

Blooging will be very light during Dec 1-10. Looking forward laying on that beach chair in front of the Atlantic Ocean by the Delano Hotel (shown above)...Ah...yes, let ''La Vida Loca'' begin!
