The Sagamore Miami Beach Hotel will host “I Am Not a Trophy,” a first of its kind innovative, immersive and education art exhibition during 2019 Art Week. The exhibition will open to the public starting at 9 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 4, and remain on view through Feb. 2020. The opening and exhibition are free and open to the public 24/7.
“I’m Not a Trophy” is entirely dedicated to endangered species and indigenous cultures that is centered on the work of the esteemed French artist and wildlife photographer Arno Elias. The exhibition is named after Elias’ charitable organization dedicated to creating greater awareness for the rapid extinction of endangered species and indigenous cultures around the world through a visually compelling campaign.
Curated by Sebastien Laboureau, resident art advisor of The Sagamore Hotel, “I’m Not a Trophy” is presented in partnership with Markowicz Fine Art, the exclusive representative of Arno Elias in South Florida. Pieces will include iconic African animals, such as lions, elephants, rhinoceros, gorillas, giraffes, cheetahs and the last of wild tigers in India, but also numerous portraits and artifacts from some of the African Tribes whose lives also depend on a fragile ecosystem. Other artworks on display will be from international guest artists who are involved with the cause.
Most of the artworks displayed in “I’m Not a Trophy” will be available for sale, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the charity.
