REYES PROJECTS AT NADA NEW YORK PRESENTING JAMES BENJAMIN FRANKLIN BOOTH 2.03 MARCH 8-11, 2018 DETROIT, MI –  Reyes Projects  is pleased to announce a solo presentation of new work by Detroit-based artist  James Benjamin Franklin  at  NADA New York, March 8 - 11, 2018 . This will be the gallery’s first booth at the fair’s New York iteration. Loosely constructed shapes and unwieldy textures combine in Franklin’s work to form a style that is uniquely untethered by traditional narrative. Shape, texture, and palette flow into one another, overlap, and expand in dynamic compositions liberated from the confines of a canvas. In these works, Franklin has found solace in the ambiguity of sculptural painting with shapes born from wire and panels from objects found in his studio. Franklin’s forms become unwieldy, even awkward, but are no less vibrant and exciting for it. Their lack of balance implies a kineticism and propulsion echoed in their pu

The Clinton Foundation is continuing their help within the countries that were affected during the hurricane season, there will be meetings held in various areas such as New York, Dominica and the U.S Virgin Islands, to communicate effective ways of rebuilding the cities and assist the schooling and medical aspects of the Islands. How will their projects affect the current residence that reside on the Islands? There are already issues with Robert De Niro and the resort that he is currently trying to build in Barbuda. The citizens believe that because of this devastating event that took place; they are being exploited. There was a communal land ownership law that protected the citizens and made it possible for them to keep their land. Now with the new development taking place and rebuilding of the city many fear that they will lose their lands that they own and will not be able to rebuild their homes. There were so many people that lost a great deal during the hurricane season

  Brunch is always a good way to start your day, especially if you haven't had a decent breakfast, however there are a lot of places to choose from when it comes to dinning. In search of a good brunch place to host a visiting friend I went to find somewhere that is good, in my search I was not so sure about the Miami brunch scene because it is something that I have never done before. I have tried their restaurants for dinner but not brunch. So I went on Google and typed in Best places for brunch in Miami. I was excited to search for a restaurant which has now become a new adventure for me. I wanted a good restaurant with unlimited mimosas, there was a list of names that came up, it wasn't a long list just a brief one of seven restaurants that showed up on my screen. On the list of restaurants were American Social, Batch Gastropub, Beaker and Gary, 15th and Vine Kitchen Bar, The Local House, Orange Blossom, Angelique Euro Cafe. These were all restaurants that opens around
