Knight Webb Gallery (London) showed pieces by Juliane Hundertmark at Context Miami 2015.

How can art be simultaneously disturbing, fun and oddly inviting? I have no idea, yet that is what these pieces are. You might not want to be at the party with the human-esque creatures depicted but we would all probably want to peek in through the window.

Alexander Mijares, from Miami, showed a great deal of his colorful, energetic work during Miami Art Week 2015.

His work references his Cuban and Spanish roots. These photos do not do his pieces justice. I stumbled across them wandering around and was glad that I did. Find out more about him at www.mijares.com.

Charlie James Gallery (Los Angeles) Showed Work By Ramiro Gomez And Guy Richards Smit At Pulse Miami 2015

Charlie James Gallery (Los Angeles) showed work by Ramiro Gomez and Guy Richards Smit at Pulse Miami 2015.

In an earlier incarnation Gomez' work showed more realistic scenes of Californians (the homes of the rich from the eyes of the folks who work for them). At one point the artist worked as a live-in nanny. These works, although more abstract in their construction, seem to pursue the same theme--a worthy one.

Smit is known  as a painter, performer and creator of video installations. His work references all sorts of popular media--but I, for one, would never call it pop art.  There are references to stand-up comedy, comics, music and the front pages of newspapers (soon to be a historical curiosity).

Wagner + Partner (Berlin) showed work by Stefan Kürten at Pulse Miami 2015.

This piece is acrylic and ink on paper. His work often features houses which are more full of symbolism as the line between "security and abandonment." Look closely at this pice and you see the sprawling building in the midst of the tropical environment.

Purdy Hicks Gallery (London) Showed Work By Ralph Fleck And Susan Derges At Pulse Miami 2015

PictureGenova 1.XII and 6.XII
Purdy Hicks Gallery (London) showed work by Ralph Fleck and Susan Derges at Pulse Miami 2015.

Fleck, a German painter, paints crowd scenes, cityscapes as well as single color pieces depicting the Alps. His pieces are impressions, not representations of actual cities or mountains (or presumably, piles of books). For some reason these buildings remind me of the cakes of Wayne Thiebaud.

Derges' work often captures nature or science in the form of a print. She pioneered exposing photographs by placing them in the running water of a river (etc). Her pieces, like the C-print below, often seem to move.
