The exposition name MIA | MI CIELO, is inspired by "Cielo" spanish for sky, blue, heaven, paradise, roof,
canopy, angle, love and "Mi Cielo" which literally translates to "my heaven" or is used as an endearment,
such as “my darling.” Exhibiting their fine art works, artists will be helping to transform the Cielo on the Bay
into a rich, cultural heaven.
MIA | MI CIELO will be presented on the 4th floor of the Cielo on the Bay luxury condominium, a high-end
residential building created by Mario Egozi, founder of Egozi Development, Inc. and designed by respected
architect Luis Revuelta. Located on Harbor Island just north of the Art Deco District and the Miami Beach
Convention Center, MIA | MI CIELO will transform the Cielo into a destination for contemporary art,
performances and events and allow the public and art collectors and enthusiasts visiting Miami to view the
increasingly influential contemporary art scene.
This curated exhibition strives to become a leading venue to discover work of emerging contemporary
artists. Conceived as a more intimate experience at its serene and accessible bay-front location, the MIA | MI
CIELO will bring the visitor closer to the artworks and artists at the creative forefront of their generation.
In addition to the Art Expo being open daily from 11am to 6pm, there will also be a number of special events.
