  Osman Can Yerebakan’s Dispatch | Miami Beach, Dec 4, 2019 Artists Interpret the Body Being “Miami-ready” not only means preparing for a heavily-packed fair schedule and unending pours of Prosecco; not unlike any beachside affair, Miami Art Week raises the “alarming” debate of the beach body that many fairgoers strive to achieve before arriving to South Beach. Accompanying the beachgoers enjoying the generous sun inside the UNTITLED tent this year are various depictions of the body, ranging from the idealized to the grotesque or even absent but captivating. While contemporary artists continue to interpret the body’s mysterious ways of conveying a range of issues, from political to personal or social to erotic, many booths display works that tackle such issues through various media and experimentation of form.

  The Christopher , St. Barth This season, The Christopher will open  three new villas  designed by French interior designer Olivia Putman. Two of the four-bedroom villas will open in December, with the third following in 2020. The new villas allow guests all the space of a private home that is completely open to the sea and all the amenities of a luxury resort. Guests can dine onsite at Christo and Mango Beach Bar restaurants, enjoy Sisley Spa with its open-air treatment rooms, or simply relax and order room service. What else is cool? The Christopher has partnered with Artireef to help rebuild the reef of Pointe Milou, the peninsula on which the hotel sits, by creating marine cement that is three times denser than concrete. The growth rate of coral there is three- to five-times that of natural coral. In addition to creating a barrier to the shore, the reef will be more resistant to high water temperatures and pollution.
