![A resonant followup to its recently closed “Smoke & Mirrors: Magical Thinking in Contemporary Art,” a new exhibition at Boca Raton Museum of Art explores the complexities of human existence through a different take on “smoke and mirrors.” Opening June 12, “Myths, Secrets, Lies, and Truths: Photography from the Doug McCraw Collection” spotlights five artists, such as Hank Willis Thomas, represented here, whose “Unbranded” series depicts advertisements created by white ad execs for the Black consumer market.

![In those rhapsodic locales to our north whence so many of us have hailed, summertime is the giddy season that redeems the restive hibernation of winter. Then, for the sunny span of 93.6 days, it is imperative for everybody to get outdoors and soak in every frolicking one of the 8 million-plus seconds of feetingly beautiful weather. That’s the prevailing notion, anyway. But it’s one that doesn’t really hold in South Florida, does it? For many of us here, the reality is more: “Summer? Meh.” If you take away the vacations and throw in the H-word, the season just ain’t […] In those rhapsodic locales to our north whence so many of us have hailed, summertime is the giddy season that redeems the restive hibernation of winter.

![Our upcoming Summer Issue, publishing on June 9, will feature a preview of chill concerts for a hot summer. The offerings span from Missy Elliott to Les Mis, Blake Shelton to Chelsea Handler, and JT to JLo – all only in air-conditioned venues. One artist who didn’t make the list — and only because his concert happens the day before the issue comes out — is French singer-songwriter Francis Cabrel. Of a style that might be described as the French equivalent of Americana, his artistry transcends language barriers. That he released an album of translated Bob Dylan covers, Vise le […] Our upcoming Summer Issue, publishing on June 9, will feature a preview of chill concerts for a hot summer.

![It’s showtime for a trio of South Florida artists who’ve dedicated their long careers to “The Daily Act of Art Making.” Under that marquee, concurrent solo exhibitions at NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale showcase the works of Fort Lauderdale’s Matthew Carone, Miami’s Jaime Grant and Elizabeth Thompson, who passed away last year. Having studied painting at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Thompson produced mural-scaled canvases based on the Everglades and, as represented here, a surreal Movie Theater series of eerily empty outdoor movie theaters intruding upon tropical landscapes.

![If theater critics were to receive reviews in addition to giving them, Christine Dolen would draw nothing but raves. In the modern history of South Florida theater, it’d be near impossible to find a voice that has projected as resoundingly as hers. Traversing her fifth decade as a theater critic and journalist — mostly for the Miami Herald but now for artburstmiami.com — Dolen has played an offstage role as enduring, definitive and acclaimed as any in the tri-county theater community. One number pretty much says it all: 3,000.
