In loving memory: Ricardo (Ricky) Gallardo -

Ricky and his beloved Gisela

Ricardo (Ricky) Gallardo

Emmaus Family and friends: 

There will be a funeral mass for Ricky on Thursday, February 2nd at noon.  

Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Hialeah   

You are welcomed to attend in celebration of his life.

You are Mine 

(Peter DeAngleis/ Robert P. Marcucci)

I will come to you in the silence

I will lift you from all your fear

You will hear My voice

I claim you as My choice

Be still, and know I am near

I am hope for all who are hopeless

I am eyes for all who long to see

In the shadows of the night,

I will be your light

Come and rest in Me

Do not be afraid, I am with you

I have called you each by name

Come and follow Me

I will bring you home

I love you and you are mine

... a few years back with love:

SAVE THE DATE! Rooster, Gallo, Galo, Gallus!

Gallo, Oil on canvas, Luis Miguel Rodriguez

 

This is the unofficial shout out and SAVE THE DATE to a beyond memorable evening on August 3rd at

Milander Center for Arts & Entertainment 

4800 Palm Avenue, Hialeah, Florida at 7 pm!

Lite fare, cocktails, admission and parking are complimentary!

 

 

 

The city of Hialeah and Milander Center for Arts & Entertainment will showcase a colossal collective art exhibition inspired by the cockerel waltz of the hackle tailed and saddled feathered rooster, "Rooster, Gallo, Galo, Gallus"

(participating artists to be determined)

CUIDADITO COMPAY GALLO … by Abel Quintero

 Es un sultán de plumas tornasoladas y corona vibrante.

Como amo de un harén de gallinas, presume su gallardía ante las hembras y arrojo ante los intrusos. Resguarda su propiedad con pico y espuelas, armas que utiliza cuando el influjo de su orgullo es insuficiente. Aunque su canto mañanero lance un desafío territorial, para nosotros es el alegre anuncio del amanecer.

Tal como una melodía conocida recuerda lugares y sucesos, el cantío de un gallo evoca el aroma a hierba sin pisar y aire húmedo del campo. Traslada la sensación de un hilo de luz dorada que a través de las hendijas juguetea con nuestros ojos aún cerrados, despertando la esperanza de un nuevo día.

La danza mortal de sus riñas son un espectáculo de movimientos y colores a los que pocos se resisten; carne de apuestas por un lado, y controversias éticas por el otro, pero también un motivo recurrente para artistas.

El gallo reaparece en el lienzo interpretado de diversas formas, pero más allá de exhibir su belleza, provoca la ternura de quienes reconocen su debilidad. Por ello también representa a quienes ostentan sus logros sin ser conscientes de la vanidad de sus actos, hasta que  un “periquito con agallas“ le increpe; “Cuidadito compay gallo“.

Bienvenidos a este nuevo encuentro en el Milander Center of Arts y disfrutemos juntos de esta muestra galliforme.

Pero nada de machismos que aunque el gallo sea gallo, la gallina sigue siendo quien pone los huevos.

In addition to this collective gem, 

The Palette Knife Artists of Miami

will bring us painted tapestries of

 South Florida Mangrove Trees  in "Silent Sentinels of Biscayne Park"

This current exhibit is part of the community artists program that serves as an outlet for the works of artists who have been inspired by the beauty of the park.

Palette Knife Artists:

Ardis Bourland, Ana Sora Vadillo, Magda Martinez, Annie Gonzalez, Susan Feldman, Eumelia Castro, Leona Rogers, Lorrain Tucker, MaiYap, Alex Urvina, Lark Ivy, Bonnie Masdeu

And it just doesn't end with these two monstrous shows.  It is never a bad time to celebrate life. In fact you probably wake up every day in gratitude.   

 

How? In the most artful way. The Teice team is in full throttle. This dynamic group of artists will arrive at Milander with a Pop up Gallery making affordable extraordinary fine art available for sale; this pop up fund raiser is served with  love  & gratitude for the life and courage of their dear friend Teice Madera and family!

 

Get your pocketbook ready:

all of the art donated by these important and talented artists will be sold for

$280 a piece

Once in a  Blood Moon! Unheard of!

Here is your chance!

All proceeds will fund Teice's Legacy Fund.

On August 3rd, we celebrate Teice's life! With a broken heart we said our last goodbyes a couple of weeks ago; she was so looking forward to this event. I am certain she will be there in spirit and in our hearts.

 

I cant begin to imagine a better way to embrace art, mingle, pay homage and share time and treasure!

Teice the warrior Rest in Peace! We know you will be there with us!

 

See you there! Buen Camino!
