Thalassa
Initially inspired by the Gulf oil spill tragedy in New Orleans, Swoon’s monumental installation invokes the Greek origin of Thalassa, as a primordial incarnation of the sea. Said to have given birth to all tribes of fish in the sea, Thalassa speaks directly to SCOPE’s beach location and is an allegorical work for Swoon, whose hallmark is the exploration of humankind’s relationship with our constructed environment.

JUXTAPOZ PRESENTS
Celebrating artwork that bends, blends and transcends genre, Juxtapoz Magazine will curate a selection of SCOPE galleries as a highlight of Feature Programming. Juxtapoz Presents galleries embody the New Contemporary that is SCOPE’s hallmark and add a singular dynamism to the Miami Beach 2014 show.

Juxtapoz has invited Kimou “Grotesk” Meyer to design and create an interactive installation entitled the “Juxtapoz Newsstand.” Inspired by classic newsstands of Brooklyn, New York, Juxtapoz Newsstand is based on an iconic cover of Juxtapoz Magazine designed by Grotesk in 2009, an illustration that was recently shown in conjunction with Juxtapoz’s special projects during their 20th Anniversary in 2014. Juxtapoz Newsstand will feature special artist-made goods, magazines, as well as the release of their newest book title, Juxtapoz Hyperrealism.

Juxtapoz will also release a special edition SCOPE newspaper featuring coverage of the Juxtapoz Presents Feature Programming at the Miami Beach 2014 show.
