2620 N.W. Second Ave., Miami, 786-486-7248, Dinamitranigallery.com
Women's Perspectives is billed as a group exhibition of "photo-based work, where each piece has been conceived as a series. Consisting of four or more images each, they are examples of how multiple perspectives can better describe a concept, story, or narrative. The artworks in the exhibition are groupings that can work cinematically frame by frame in some cases, and in others, depictions of how fragmentation can complete an idea or visual expression."
Exhibiting artists include Amalia Caputo, Vicenta Casañ, Marina Font, Deborah Goldman, Peggy Levison Nolan, Patricia Schnall Gutierrez and Viviana Zargon. The exhibition runs through Aug. 24. Read Arterpillar's story on Patricia Schnall Gutierrez. The gallery will be open 4-9 p.m. for July 14 Second Saturday Art Walk.
| Juan Carlos Arana's Bulls Eye will be on exhibit at District Factory. |
3900 N.E. First Ave., Miami, Districtfactory.com
Juan Carlos Arana, the featured artist this month, is inspired by people life, nature, and recently, Charlie Chaplin, whose film scenes Arana captures in his work.
Arana notes his appreciation of history and nostalgia for his own childhood. Growing up in Cali, Colombia with many cousins his age and later in New York, he notes that "Fond memories are all I have of a world where there was no responsibility and no social pressure - just pure bliss."
His current work centers around children of the Industrial Revolution. "When viewing photographs of that time, a deep sadness strikes me ... that these children, at such a young age, were put through horrid circumstances as our country was built. Living without a childhood to be fond of stirs me in such a way. I am compelled to create this fantasy world where the children can experience that which most people now long for: running around free from obligations, riding your bike until it is dark out, playing with friends and inventing new games. I give these children that long lost childhood in my work."
His exhibition at District Factory will take place 7-10 p.m. July 14

| Dan Attoe's "Something New" will be on exhibit in Things Beyond Our Control at Snitzer. |
2247 N.W. First Place, Miami, 305-448-8976, Snitzer.com (Regular gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday)
Things Beyond Our Control, a group exhibition curated by Miami collector Andrew Reed, will feature works by Dan Attoe, Hernan Bas, Naomi Fisher, Keith Haring, Rashid Johnson, Anton Kannemeyer, Marilyn Minter, Jonathan Meese, Richard Mosse, Man Ray, Lucas Samaras, Malick Sidibe, David Shrigley, Hank Willis Thomas, Michael Vasquez, Carlos Vega, Kara Walker and Chen Wei.
Each artist addresses "questions of agency, structure and the ability of art, specifically pictorial art, to come into contact with the conditions of its own production."
As Snitzer puts it in its press release, "The 'beyond' has been, at different moments, a Platonic Ideal, a hallucinatory dreamworld, a utopian vision. But in this specific historical moment, the works in the show raise a slightly darker prospect ... that what is beyond our control is specifically our ability to imagine, in a compelling way, any sort of 'beyond' at all ..."
The exhibition opens 7-9 p.m. July 14 and runs through Aug. 13.

Radical Genealogy: The Decline of Dauphins, Courtesans, and Hounds, an exhibition curated by Aluna Curatorial Collective, will feature works by Carlos Gámez de Francisco, who according to HACS, "appropriates the aesthetic of the opulent and decadent atmosphere of the days of the last French monarchs to create a parable of absolute power. Black humor serves as the narrative thread linking pictorial scenes in which the bloody and the absurd converge with ostentatious fashion. Each frame opens a window onto a story that functions simultaneously as a prophetic mirror: in its background one may catch a glimpse of the fate that awaits the characters thriving on excessive power. "The show, featuring free cocktails from Mandarine Napoleon, will run 7-10 p.m. July 14.
Harold Golen Gallery
2294 N.W. Second Ave., Miami, 305-989-3359, Haroldgolengallery.com
Simian Spectacle is a show curated by Robert Jimenez, who says he has loved drawing apes, particularly chimps, since he was a kid. "I always get asked why I paint them and I think the one thing that influenced me the most was watching the Planet of The Apes films over and over again as a child in Brooklyn," he says. "The Gorillas scared the hell out of me and the chimps who were more compassionate, in particular Cornelius, were very moving to me. The were almost as much prisoners on the planet as the humans were."

| Robert Jimenez's "Mr. Quince" at Simian Spectacle |
Golen liked the idea but like most galleries was already booked through year's end, Jimenez explains. But in April, when Jimenez exhibited at Golen's Hukilau, he mentioned that he had a July slot open for the monkey show and asked if wanted to curate it.
He did indeed. "I've never done anything like that before, it sounded like fun so I took it on," he says. Golen already had two artists in mind and Jimenez rounded up others. The exhibition will now include works by Gambino, Horne, Anthony Carpenter, Eddy Crosby, El Gato Gomez, Mulder 142, Janet Luru Rudawsky, Nik Satterfield, Stephanie Jaffe Werner and of course, Jimenez, who will exhibit six works including a a steampunk orangutan titled "Mr. Quince."
"We wanted some sort of actual Simian presence at the show," Jimenez says. "Through LuRu, one of the artists in the show, we found Mikey, an organ grinder monkey. Mikey will be at the opening."
The exhibition opens 6-11 p.m. July 14 and runs through 5 p.m. Aug. 4.

Salon de Notre Société, a nod to the historical Salon des Refusés of Paris, ihighlights the paintings, photography, sculpture and installations of more than 46 artists in an exhibition tat pay homage to "outsiders."
“The institution that governed ‘Salon de Paris’ in the 1600s and 1700s was very elitist and rejected artists who later became some of the most influential of that period, including Édouard Manet,” explains one of Primary Projects three curators Chris Oh in a statement abut the show. “In retaliation, these supposed ‘rejects’ created their own forum called ‘Salon des Refusés.’ To a certain degree, we can identify because we’ve been marginalized in similar way by the art world for most of our lives and at various stages of our careers.”
The exhibition, which will feature more than 400 works by emerging and established artists, will focus on affordable works that the projects curators expect to increase in value over time.
The show will include work by Nick Arehart, Autumn Casey, Felice Grodon, Douglas Hoekzema, Miru Kim, Stormie Mills, Emmett Moore, Edouard Nardon, Andrew Nigon, Jessy Nite, Jeffrey Noble, Brandon Opalka, Christina Pettersson, Melanie Ratcliff, Rebeca Raney, Johnny Robles, Jonathan Rockford, Samantha Salzinger, Karen Starosta Gilinski, Tatiana Suarez and Antonia Wright.
The show runs through July. Hours listed above.

Get Lost, Brian Butler's first solo exhibition, is a collection of paintings, photos and sculpture that he notes was inspired be years of getting lost on America's back roads while on "the quest for great miniature golf."
The first time I saw Butler's work was on Sketchy Miami where his ice cream people were exhibited ... They were fun little portraits of people, each with their head atop an ice-cream cone. This work (at right) in "Get Lost" reminded me of that.
The exhibit, which will include a mural, and a playable miniature golf hole, chronicles a journey that began about five years ago when he and his wife Colby pair set out to visit and document around 80 mini-golf courses in their home state of Massachusetts. This exhibit is pure summer fun and anyone who can get that golf ball in deserves an ice cream cone.
Krisp will perform at the exhibition, which has been held over for a second Second Saturday.
