Top Wynwood Sweet 16 Venues

I was born in Israel in July of 1971. I never imagined having my lifetime passion as an actual career. I have enjoyed a varied and successful career in business, real estate and banking; converting several ideas into living companies and products. After 20 years of mainstream existence, I took my passion out of the basement. “ManySkin” was a last minute exhibition during Miami Art Basel 2015, and was an expose of ‘difference in same’. Display fashion mannequins were provided to several artists (photographers, painters, sculptors, graffiti artists) and the only guideline was to cover the lifeless, sexy bodies with anything but clothes. The resulting exhibition, shown at the LAAM Latin America Art Museum and supported by Gary Nader, was a travel through society and beauty. It proved to be an exciting experience for artist and patrons alike. Scenario Gallery has also encouraged and supported my first commercial solo exhibition and showing of my collection. ​ The magic of color and its monotone desire to morph and blend is a gift I enjoy more than anything. A timeline of my artwork from my first painting 20 years ago, to the recent pieces in this collection show a true growth and change. Just as in life, as experiences collect, the highs and lows impact, and the self slowly and uniquely becomes the now. ​ ​Shortly After Miami Art Basel week I went to Israel to visit my children and during New Years Eve I spent the night playing with fire and Photography, the outcome was magical. ​ Today all I want to do is create! Create is beauty with love. I bless every piece with the word Amen, as I humbly know that while the creations may have come from my hands, it is the guidance of the light that allows me to reflect into my art the wave movement that you see on my final pieces. That is what inspires me and allows me to continue to express how I feel through my creations. This is the home for Wynwood artists to display their art. This space was designed around the energy of four words that guide and inspire the artist being Create Art Love and Fashion. This 2700sf gallery also serves as an event venue for up to 220 people. It lends its unique chic character and creative energy to fashion shows, private dinners, charity events, and private celebrations. The gallery is also home to a boutique which displays unique jewelry, fashion items and pieces of decorative art.

The menu consists of elegant rustic food as well as exciting communal meals, with something for everyone on the menu. Swan is a stylish restaurant and bar in a lush setting with a sidewalk café that serves European-style meals and drinks. A pink bar that seems like it would be perfect for Elle Woods after a hard day in court greets you as soon as you enter Swan, which is located in the Design District and can be found just next to the entrance. Light pink and blue are used to decorate the space, which gives the impression of being in the dollhouse of a modern-day fairytale princess.

Since Lorena Garcia has been cooking professionally, she has focused on bringing the flavors of Latin cooking -- one of the great cuisines of the world -- to a wider audience. Her global, fresh and highly flavorful take on Latin Cuisine offers a modern fusion of classic techniques with Latin ingredients. Her life as a chef, entrepreneur, cookbook author, media personality, cookware designer and restaurateur has been a celebration of the cooking and passion for food that she grew up with in her native Caracas, Venezuela with the international flavors and culinary techniques she amassed as a young chef working in some of the world’s finest restaurants. In July 2002, Garcia opened her first restaurant, Food Café, followed by Elements Tierra in Miami’s Design District. In 2011, she moved her restaurant operations into airports (currently at MIA, DFW and ATL), offering millions of travelers Lorena Garcia Tapas y Cocina, a healthier take on traditional Latin cuisine. Lorena also operates the Lorena Garcia Culinary Loft in Miami, which is available for private events, as well as film and television production. In 2017, Garcia embarked on her most ambitious restaurant project in collaboration with the award- winning international hospitality ground 50 Eggs Inc., landing her on the world-famous Las Vegas Strip. CHICA by Lorena Garcia located at The Venetian hotel is a stunning celebration of Latin American cooking and hospitality showcasing flavors, influences and techniques from Venezuela, Peru, Brazil, Argentina and Mexico, combined and reimagined in Garcia’s distinct global style. With CHICA, she has joined the ranks of the world class chefs on Restaurant Row at The Venetian including Thomas Keller and Emeril Lagasse – and now her photo proudly lives between them as the first woman chef on the “Wall of Culinary Titans” outside the property. The expansion of the CHICA brand brought Garcia back home to South Florida when the concept opened its second location in Miami’s historic MiMo district in late-2019. The Miami incarnation of CHICA by Lorena Garcia appeals to both locals and visitors alike, featuring the robust and vibrant flavors of authentic Latin and South American dishes, inventive cocktails and an unparalleled dining experience guaranteed to elevate the local culinary landscape. The pristine Lorena Garcia culinary loft is centrally located and a drive about 5 minutes from Miami Beach, 10 minutes from Miami International Airport and 5 minutes from Downtown/Brickell. Featuring a 5,000 sq ft space, the loft allows for TV production, brand development, educational workshops, and private events.

Bringing their blended culture and enthusiastic hospitality to Miami's cuisine scene, the pair established themselves as leaders in the industry.
