Presented in partnership with South Beach Group Hotels owner Alan Lieberman, the event spotlighted a curated selection of works by celebrated Miami-born artist Purvis Young. The pieces were exhibited by New York City gallery One Art Space as an exclusive preview of its forthcoming February 2026 exhibition at the gallery’s 23 Warren St. location in Tribeca.
The reception served as a cultural bridge between Miami’s vibrant creative community and New York’s downtown arts scene, highlighting Purvis Young’s enduring influence and the gallery’s continued commitment to presenting historically significant artists.
