The Miami Heat continue to screw over Miami-Dade County by refusing to follow through on their promised waterfront park

In 1996, the Miami Heat were losing the PR battle for a new basketball arena. The Miami Heat were trying to justify to the public why the team should be given a new sports arena on the public’s dime. As a former Heat political consultant wrote in 2004, as the referendum date got closer, the “arena project appeared to be doomed”. So how did they turn it around and win the vote? They did everything…

The Replacements - The Roxy, Los Angeles, California, December 17, 1985

Since I'm perpetually about six months behind, I only got around to really digging into that big Tim boxed set recently. First things first — it's great. The Rhino overhaul of the Replacements catalog has been done with an incredible amount of love and care, from unreleased material to live shows to deeply detailed liners from Bob Mehr, who knows the whole saga better than anyone (including the band members themselves, I'm thinking).

The semi-controversial aspect of the Let It Bleed edition is the Ed Stasium remix of Tim. One friend likened it to a Rick Springfield album. Others hailed its clarity and immediacy. Hey, if Gen X enjoys one thing, it's arguing about the Replacements. While I certainly don't mind hearing the album from a different angle, I'm going to say that the new remix is not definitive. As I get older, it feels like a key element of a lot of classic records is actually their weird / unusual / perhaps ill-advised mixing choices. From White Light/White Heat to Raw Power to Zen Arcade to Time Out Of Mind, a big part of what makes these albums special is that they sound kind of ... wrong? Maybe not wrong, exactly, but not like anything else. Unrepeatable, ineffable, totally mysterious. In a rich irony, perfect albums should be flawed to some extent. You know what I mean.

Anyway, the new Tim box comes with a smoking live set from early 1986. Here's something equally smoking from about a month earlier — the Replacements on the Sunset Strip. You would think that a show taking place on Bob Stinson's birthday would be a recipe for a legendary 'Mats disaster. But you'd be wrong! The shit hits the fan a few times, but the band keeps its together for the most part, even dispatching most of the covers in relatively tight fashion. And Bob himself is on fire pretty much throughout, sending insane spiraling riffs out over the crowd. On the breakneck closing "Customer" the guitarist sounds like he's ready to start the whole thing all over again. Thanks to Tapegeek for the tape!

Tapegeek: When I saw the Replacements at the Roxy in Los Angeles (12-17-85), I had seen (and taped) them twice in New York — once was so drunkenly bad it was great (CBGB), and one was really pretty great (Irving Plaza), so I must admit that I was a bit scared when we saw Paul walking over to Dan Turner's liquor store near the Roxy and then walking past all of us standing in line with what looked like a bottle of Jack Daniels in a paper bag — well, thankfully the 'Mats must have all balanced their "inebriants" appropriately, because they came out blasting on all cylinders — once again I was kind of far over on the right side with the mic taped to the wall…

De gemeente Etten-Leur verlengt haar samenwerkingscontract voor het jaar 2024 bij non-profit stichting StartToGrow. StartToGrow zet zich al jarenlang in voor startende- en groeiende ondernemers. Alle betrokkenen bij de stichting zijn zelf ondernemer, dus ‘Van ondernemers, Voor ondernemers’. Zij bieden coaching, inhoudelijke programma’s en organiseren netwerkevents voor ondernemers. Wethouder Ger de Weert is verheugd over de samenwerking. “StartToGrow past als organisatie goed in de economische visie en het bevorderen van ondernemerschap in onze gemeente. Wij zien dat meerdere ondernemers uit Etten-Leur de weg naar StartToGrow al vinden om zich te laten begeleiden bij de start- of groei van hun onderneming. Met StartToGrow bieden we ondernemers de kans om te reflecteren; waar wil ik heen met mijn bedrijf en welke stappen kan ik zetten? En dat is belangrijk om van een onderneming een succes te maken. Het is dus positief dat we dit partnerschap verder uitbouwen nadat wij vorig jaar als vijfde gemeente in West-Brabant zijn aangesloten bij StartToGrow.” What’s Next? ‘Whats Next’ is ontstaan als gevolg van de documentaire “Etten-Leur in de Picture”. Deze documentaire is een inspiratiebron om een missie te formuleren om Etten-Leur aantrekkelijker te maken voor jonge, talentvolle en creatieve ondernemers. Initiatiefnemers Raemy en Dylano zijn zeer dankbaar dat zij het kickstartprogramma van StartToGrow hebben gevolgd. Daarbij zijn ze gekomen van idee naar een concreet businessplan. Momenteel worden zij door businesscoaches Peter Huijgens en Paul Hoogerhuis begeleid om hopelijk te komen tot realisatie van de ‘Creative Factory’ voor jonge ondernemers en potentieel ondernemerstalent. StartToGrow Awards: Media Hologram genomineerd Jaarlijks reikt StartToGrow de Rabobank Start to Grow Awards uit aan succesvolle startende ondernemers. Die award is voor de ondernemers die een groot aanpassingsvermogen en lef hebben. Media Hologram is genomineerd. Zij verzorgen alles van ontwerp van animaties tot aan het plaatsen van het hologram op locatie. Mede gebruik makend van Artificial Intelligence is dit snel groeiende technologische bedrijf een parel voor Etten-Leur en zij hebben inmiddels een nominatie op zak voor de Smart Award. “Een erkenning dat wij op de goede weg zijn” zegt de eigenaar Simon Hanemaaijer dan ook met trots. Ontwikkelingen in de gemeente en in de regio West-Brabant Op het gebied van economie en ondernemerschap zien wij steeds meer verbondenheid in de regio West-Brabant. Steeds verder gaande samenwerkingen tussen gemeenten onderling maar ook met partijen als REWIN, B’wise, StartToGrow, West-Brabant Business plaza die allen het ondernemersklimaat in de regio naar een hoger niveau proberen te tillen. Een goede ontwikkeling, want samen bereiken we meer dan alleen!

‘Bastion Of The Super-Rich’: Inside A New York Billionaire’s Private Museum

A collection of art, featuring pieces by Picasso, Lichtenstein and Cézanne, has been kept secret for years but for select members of the public, the door is slowly being opened

— Francesca Carington in New York | Tuesday 11 July 2023

It was Fleet Week in New York City, and something unusual was taking place on Billionaires’ Row. At 9 West 57th Street, an elegant black sloping skyscraper towering over the Plaza hotel and the half-dozen sailors congregated outside, 20 people were ushered into a small, glass-fronted gallery on the ground floor. A ferocious crimson Basquiat greeted them, along with a monochrome Kline and a serene Henry Moore – works collected by the building’s late owner, the real estate mogul Sheldon Solow.

The exhibition’s curator, Joseph Henry, silenced the excitable group. “You are the absolute first members of the public to come on a public tour,” he said, standing beneath an Alexander Calder mobile.

Under the watchful gaze of three sentinel security guards, Henry led the group on a swift, authoritative tour of the works he had brought together: a quartet of Cézannes, smudged in delicate blue and green; an angular mask carved by the Dan people of Ivory Coast, hanging next to a complementarily geometric Picasso; two Giacometti portraits with cockroach-coloured faces; three Miró dream paintings; a somewhat dingy Van Gogh. The tour ended after 35 minutes precisely, and a distinguished-looking gentleman with a Strand Bookstore bag asked: “So why were you closed for so long?”

“Closed for so long” implies the gallery was once open. It wasn’t. For years, the art could be glimpsed only from outside, beyond the glare of the windows. The collection, amassed by Solow, who died in 2020 aged 92 and worth $4.4bn, is conservatively valued at $500m. And while the majority of works were privately owned by Solow – and now by his son, Stefan Soloviev (who uses the pre-Ellis Island version of the family name) – a dozen or so of them are held by a tax-exempt non-profit called the Soloviev Foundation.

Set up by Solow in 1991 as the Solow Art and Architecture Foundation (and since renamed by his son), the non-profit describes its charitable activities in its tax filings: “The foundation maintains and displays artwork for exhibition to the public at the 9 West 57th Street, New York building.” While the gift of artworks like Matisse’s Acrobats (which is worth $30m) and Van Gogh’s Coal Barges ($50m) to the foundation entitled Solow to certain tax write-offs, they were not readily accessible to the public.

This completely legal set-up caught the eye of Ethan Arnheim, a Washington-based international development consultant, who created a parody website drawing attention to the foundation’s tax status and inaccessibility in 2017. He was outraged, but also, he said, hoped to “alert people to the fact that … you can do this questionable practice under current code”. A few of the artworks were technically on “public” display in the office building’s lobby (hardly an art-world destination) and some were lent to museums, such as the Botticelli sold in 2021 for $92m (which spent many years at the Met) or a Miró triptych, which went to the Tate Modern in 2011. Although, as Arnheim pointed out, lending to museums is a common practice among collectors, since it increases the value of the works.

There are plenty of examples of art foundations that work well as private museums, such as Glenstone in Washington DC, the Broad in LA and the Rubell museums in Miami and DC. And there are plenty of generous patrons of the arts, like the Lauders or the Rockefellers, in New York City, said Robert Storr, former senior curator of painting and sculpture at MoMA and one-time holder of a professorship at NYU endowed by Sheldon Solow. (The foundation has made a number of large donations over the years, including gifts to NYU, $3m to the University of Rhode Island and, recently, $400,000 to another family-run non-profit, the Soloviev American Russian Cultural Foundation.)

But according to Storr, “the idea of a private museum is kind of an oxymoron, because a museum is a public space.” A museum does not exist in isolation, but rather in dialogue with its visitors, with its own collection and with the society it serves. Most of all, Storr emphasised, a museum is accessible: “A museum is its collection. If you can’t get to that collection, there is no museum.”

Private museums have come under scrutiny in the past, most notably in 2015, when the Republican senator Orrin Hatch led an inquiry into 11 tax-exempt private museums (the Solow Foundation was not one of them). Hatch concluded in a letter to the IRS: “Despite the good work that is being done by many private museums, I remain concerned that this area of our tax code is ripe for exploitation.” A Republican tax bill proposed a rule compelling private museums to be open a minimum of 1,000 hours a year, but it was not enacted.

The curdling of art into an asset class began some time ago, but such behaviour by the wealthy only crystallises the social stratification of the art world: “A lot of art is seen as esoteric and highbrow and inaccessible, and this behaviour only serves to reinforce that view,” said Arnheim. “Less people are going to want to go to museums when they can’t even get into museums and it’s perceived as just the bastion of the super-rich.”

Could some kind of democratisation be under way at 9 West 57th Street with the changing of the guard? Michael Hershman, CEO of the Soloviev Group, wrote in an email: “The reason for opening the collection to the public is social responsibility. It is a wonderful collection, and we want to share it with the public.” The opening was not, he added, “in any way driven by past criticism”, and the decision was taken by Stefan Soloviev.

Soloviev is no typical billionaire. The tattooed 47-year-old with a boyish undercut has 22 children. His fractious relationship with his father led him to move out west, where he built an agricultural empire that now places him among the top 30 largest landowners in the US.

Soloviev was not present at the opening, though Hershman was, smiling beatifically as he spoke to curious visitors. He was animated, but vague, as he spoke of the gallery’s future. “We’re in the process of sticking our toe in the water, if you like. Before we decide what to do next.” The gallery is undertaking something of a soft opening to the public, beginning with four tours a month, and the website gestures towards nebulous plans for an “expansion” in due course. (The Soloviev Group is one of several developers bidding for one of New York City’s three soon-to-be-granted casino licences. Its proposal, called “Freedom Plaza”, would develop a 6.7-acre plot of land by the United Nations, and includes a hotel, four acres of green space and a museum.)

For now, however, the gallery is open to whichever 20 lucky punters manage to score a spot on a tour. Vagueness aside, Arnheim is optimistic about the opening. “I don’t understand what their strategy is. But in the end, they’re doing the right thing, and that’s what’s important.”

For Storr, however, a few days a month is not good enough. “It’s grudging – you need to make a place where people feel comfortable coming in, and I know that many people feel uncomfortable even going to the galleries, which are free.” Indeed, the intrigue surrounding the collection as the result of its previous exclusivity may serve to further entrench a perception of art by well-loved artists as trophy collectibles for tycoons, rather than magnificent works for the city to revel in. Or, as Storr puts it, “just expensive things that somebody else owns and you get a chance to see”.

The reaction to the gallery’s opening on New York’s gallery circuit has been more ambivalent. Some stuck up their noses at its office-building location; some hadn’t even heard about it. For others, a lack of enthusiasm had more to do with the competition than the quality of the collection itself. As Ray Waterhouse, co-owner of the Upper East Side gallery Waterhouse & Dodd, pointed out, the city’s museums are stuffed with fabulous paintings. “So it’s somewhat irrelevant to the New York art landscape,” he said. “I’m not saying it’s not worthy.”

The art world has moved on from Solow’s mid-century taste. But there’s a value to the (intermittent) opening of a small, manageable collection of crowd-pleasers around the corner from MoMA and its long queues. With dynamic curation and a dramatic increase in the number of hours it’s open, the Soloviev gallery could come to be known for the quality of the art it houses rather than for its inaccessibility. As for the social barriers carefully built up by the collection habits of the international super-rich – that damage might take longer to unpick.

Not least in New York City, the art world’s financial capital. The tour ended with a glass of champagne in the building’s swanky subterranean restaurant, Cucina 8½. Afterward, I made my way past Bergdorf Goodman to the 59th Street subway station, where a man sat on the steps with a box of pastels and a cardboard sign which read: “Artist in need.”

Descubriendo bélgica

Aunque sea uno de los países más pequeños de Europa, Bélgica es un territorio que comprende ciudades impresionantes con sus cascos históricos medievales, y otras más modernas y cosmopolitas que combinan una agitada vida nocturna con delicias gastronómicas, como el chocolate belga y la extensa variedad de cervezas artesanales.

Es un país fácil de recorrer por lo que se puede realizar un itinerario para un corto tiempo, y aunque suele ser uno de los destinos olvidados por los turistas, tiene pueblos de cuento y entretenidas ciudades que compiten con cualquiera de sus países vecinos.

BRUJAS

Esta es una de las ciudades más mágicas y pintorescas para conocer en el país belga. Declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco, tiene un casco histórico medieval lleno de canales, con edificios característicos construidos con ladrillos y fachada de colores.

Es una visita que se puede realizar en un día, en la que se recomienda perderse por sus calles empedradas y recorrer a la “Venecia del Norte”, con sus rincones increíblemente bien conservados entre los que se destacan la Grote Markt, el Parque Minnewater y el Muelle del Rosario.

GANTE

Es otra de las ciudades que se caracterizan por su asombroso estilo medieval, con una gran actividad nocturna, ya que más de la mitad de la población son estudiantes que la llenan de vida.

La mayoría de sus sitios de interés se encuentran dentro del centro histórico por lo que es muy sencillo de conocer. No se debe abandonar Gante sin visitar el Castillo de Gravensteen y el Puente de San Miguel, desde donde se pueden apreciar las tres torres más icónicas de esta ciudad, las de la Catedral de San Bavon, la Iglesia de San Nicolás y el Campanario del Ayuntamiento.

BRUSELAS

La capital de Bélgica es la ciudad más grande de este pequeño país, una ciudad con edificios medievales y también del Art Noveau que la hacen sumamente atractiva.

Uno de sus emblemas es la Grand Place, una de las plazas más lindas de Europa, con edificaciones góticas y barrocas que le dan un toque único.

Con una amplia oferta de sitios de interés entre los que se pueden mencionar a la estatua del Manneken Pis, el Parque Real de Bruselas, la Catedral de San Miguel y Santa Gudula, la lindísima iglesia gótica de Notre Dame de Sablon o el Atomium, construido para la Exposición Universal en el año 1958.

La capital tiene además una gran oferta gastronómica con platos y postres característicos, además de sus chocolates y cervezas.

AMBERES

Es la segunda ciudad más grande de Bélgica y su puerto es uno de los más importantes del continente, lo que la convirtió en uno de los centros comerciales más importantes de Europa.

El paseo por la Grote Mark, la réplica de la Grand Place de Bruselas, es obligatorio. Se encuentra rodeada de edificios renacentistas como la Catedral de Nuestra Señora, la mayor construcción religiosa de todo el país o la Casa Museo del pintor barroco Peter Paul Rubens, en la que vivió durante sus últimos años.

Y en Amberes hay un comercio de diamantes, cuyo tráfico se concentra en el barrio de los diamantes, repleto de tiendas y talleres muy prestigiosos a nivel mundial. Es posible, a través de una visita guiada, observar el trabajo de algunos de los mejores talladores del mundo.

LOVAINA

Se encuentra tan solo a media hora de Bruselas y es una de las ciudades universitarias más importantes, con la universidad más antigua, que data del año 1425.

Además de su sede universitaria tiene un Ayuntamiento del siglo XV que merece la pena admirar. Tiene más de 230 estatuas de personajes bíblicos, santos y destacados personajes de la historia de la ciudad.

Y también se recomienda ir a beber una cerveza en el Oude Markt, el bar más grande del mundo, donde se continúa respirando el aire estudiantil.

DINANT

Es, sin lugar a dudas, una de las ciudades más lindas y fotografiables para conocer en Bélgica. Se encuentra a orillas del río Mosa y encasillada entre rocas que le brindan un particular encanto.

Es una ciudad muy pequeña que tiene dos grandes atractivos turísticos como la ciudadela a orillas del río y su Colegiata de Notre Dame. La ciudadela se construyó en el año 1048 arriba del acantilado, por lo que para llegar se puede subir por teleférico o a pie subiendo más de 400 escalones. Pero el esfuerzo vale la pena para poder ver las vistas del pueblo que nos regala.

Muy cerca de allí se encuentra también la Cueva de la Merveilleuse, una de las más asombrosas, que cuenta con numerosas estalactitas y cascadas subterráneas.

MALINAS

El centro neurálgico de esta ciudad es la Grote Markt, donde se pueden visitar su catedral y su ayuntamiento entre otros edificios barrocos, y el edificio que despierta gran interés, la gran Torre de la Catedral de San Romualdo para comprender un poco sobre su historia. Para llegar a la cima se debe subir por una escalera de 514 escalones, pero si bien este dato puede resultar desalentador, las vistas recompensarán el esfuerzo.

Y una particular manera de conocer el centro histórico es a bordo de un barco por el Dijle, para tener una perspectiva de la ciudad diferente, o también caminando por las pasarelas flotantes de casi 2 kms. de longitud.
