American architect Peter Marino had an opportunity to take the stage at Miami. the exhibition clearly has reflected Peter Marino’s creative vision and viewers could find themselves intimately submerged in his various artistic facets, leaving with a slight buzz and fresh perspective over his life and work.

Peter Marino stated it is important to pinpoint that the Bass exhibition was not a retrospective. They’re showing architecture from just the past seven or eight years, and the largest part of this art collection, his Renaissance bronzes, were not a focus.

He considered the Miami audience to be quite pop, that is why most of the show may be called young, fun and hip. The exhibition also featured both Marino’s own projects and contemporary art from his collection, including pieces by artists Damien Hirst, Anselm Kiefer and Andy Warhol.

Peter Marino founded his New York-based architecture firm in 1978. He explores the renowned American architect’s multifaceted relationship with art. As it is known, Peter is the recipient of Design Miami’s inaugural Design Visionary award.

He also designs high-end residential. Marino seems to be a collector and has in his possession works by some of the top-name artists in contemporary art.
