Bal Harbour Art Night -- Lorena Lopez Art Show -- Bal Harbour Shops
Start: 6:00 pm
Discover the work of emerging young artist Lorena Lopez at Bal Harbour Shops Art Night. This is the second Books & Books Gallery Show for Lorena, who is studying for her B.A. in Art at Carnegie Mellon University. Artist Statement: "The basic concept of my work lies in visually representing abstract relationships. Through forms like the painted nude, and animation I strive to discover whether or not abstract emotions can truly be depicted through concrete means. ASTRAL PSYCHOSIS* however is something completely new to me, both in subject matter, and technique. Using layers of translucent color I recreate places photographed by the Hubble Telescope, which till now seemed far out of reach, the stars. ASTRAL PSYCHOSIS* is about creating an experience in which one can not only see, but also touch and hear the vastness of space". Live music from Capricho. Complimentary wine reception provided by Rex Goliath Wine. 
Edie Meidav -- Lola, California -- Gables
Start: 8:00 pm
The year is 2008, the place California. Vic Mahler, famous for having inspired cult followers in the seventies, serves time on death row, now facing a countdown of ten days. For years, his daughter, Lana, has been in hiding. Meanwhile, her friend Rose, a lawyer, is determined to bring the two together.When Rose succeeds in tracking down Lana at a California health spa, the two friends must negotiate land mines of memory in order to find their future. In sharp episodes infused with pathos and wit, Edie Meidav brings her acclaimed insight and poetry to the hope of friendship, parenthood, dystopia, and the legacy of the seventies. Lola, California (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, $28) speaks to our contemporary crisis of faith, asking: Can we survive too much choice?
