New temporary annex opens in Wynwood, Miami.The Museum of Contemporary Art of North Miami opened MOCA at Goldman Warehouse, a new exhibition and art warehouse space in the Wynwood Arts and Entertainment district of Miami, on December 1st, 2005. This new facility, located at 26th Street & 5th Avenue, will become a satellite branch of MOCA’s Joan Lehman Building in north Miami. Tony Goldman and Joey Goldman donated the Goldman Warehouse to MOCA through the year 2009. The museum will now have a wonderful temporary solution to the current space constraints that provides MOCA with the means to house its growing permanent collection, gives the public greater access to portions of the collection year-round, and increases the exhibition space to present projects by emerging artists. MOCA at Goldman Warehouse will open December 1st, 2005, with “Cloud City,” an exhibition by the emerging Miami art collaborative Friends With You, featuring an oversized, interactive playground and exhibit selection from their permanent collection, featuring works by Louise Bourgeois, Mariko Mori, Jason Rhoades, Dennis Oppenheim, Jorge Pardo, Dan Flavin and several Miami artists. The Wynwood annex will also house a branch of the MOCA gift shop MOCA counts with an outstanding international reputation and has played a major role in the development and recognition of Miami’s burgeoning art scene. It opened in 1996 at the Joan Lehman Building, at 770 NE 125 Street, North Miami, a facility comprised of 23,000 square-feet, 7,500 square feet of gallery space and an additional 360 square feet of exhibition space for emerging artists projects in its Pavilion.
