CARTIER, VANITY FAIR/VANITY FAIR INTERNATIONAL AND THE MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART HOSTS A PRIVATE DINNER IN HONOR OF ANRI SALA IN THE CARTIER DÔME AT THE MIAMI BEACH BOTANICAL GARDENS
Cartier, one of the world's leading luxury goods companies celebrates Art Basel Miami Beach as an Associate Sponsor for the second year. Cartier along with Vanity Fair/Vanity Fair International and MOCA hosted a private dinner for the art community's elite and international guests under the shimmering Cartier Dôme. The private dinner honored Albanian artist Anri Sala and his new exhibition at the MOCA, North Miami. One of the most highly regarded young video artists around, Anri came to international attention in 1999 for his work in After the Wall, the Stockholm Modern Museum's exhibition of art from post-communist Europe. His works can be described as meditations on slowness, characterized by a near-total absence of camera movement which almost freezes scenes into paintings. Other guests in attendance: Hervé Chandès, Executive Director of Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain, Luca Dini, Editor-in-Chief, Vanity Fair, Spain, Lourdes Garzon, Editor-in-Chief, Vanity Fair, Italy, Calvin Klein, Pierre Rainero, Image, Strategy and Heritage Director of Cartier International, Julian and Vito Schnabel, Bruce Weber, Lauren Taschen and Rachel Zoe.
