Untitled, Miami Beach
Announces Programming for
Untitled, Radio Presented by Wynwood Radio
Untitled, Art, the international, curated art fair, is pleased to announce the return of the successful Untitled, Radio presented by Wynwood Radio, at the sixth edition of the fair in Miami Beach. Untitled, Radio, which debuted in 2015, is a platform that takes the place of the customary fair program of talks, interviews, and roundtable discussions. Encapsulating Untitled’s ethos of inclusivity, the radio station brings together artists, curators and institutions from all around the world, and can be accessed whether listeners are physically at the fair, or elsewhere.
The radio station is broadcasted live from the fair by Miami-based Wynwood Radio and is also available online. Programming for 2017 features conversations, panels and interviews as well as sound art, performances, readings and curated playlists.
“We’re thrilled to present Untitled, Radio for a third year in Miami Beach”, states Amanda Schmitt, Director of Programming and Development, “This area of programming continues to provide unprecedented and innovative opportunities for artists, performers, musicians, writers, thinkers, and tinkerers alike to expand the notions of what artistic involvement can be within the context of an art fair. We are so grateful for the thoughtful and ever-expanding contributions of new and returning collaborators and contributors to Untitled, Radio”
This year, Untitled, Radio will be situated within Radio Station – Miami Folly II, a site-specific, architectural project by SiTE:LAB’s Paul Amenta and architect Ted Lott of Lott3Metz Architecture. The steel frame structure will incorporate Not Design, a collaborative letterpress studio that has worked with SiTE:LAB since 2010. They will operate a tabletop press within the structure, producing live content during the fair that will be displayed on the structure’s wall and will include daily updates on the Untitled, Radio program and the fair’s special events schedule.

Untitled, Radio is proud to be featuring a variety of sonic artworks, providing a platform for works that are often challenging to incorporate into the traditional art fair context. Highlights include a selection of works from Archival Feedback, a working experimental practice that integrates wide-ranging field studies with art and the acoustic landscape. Argentinian artist Eduardo Navarro’s audio-based work Titulos, which consists of approximately 700 imaginary titles that Navarro had written since 2007, spoken in both English and Spanish, and audio from Wisconsin-based artist Claire Wilson’s sound sculptures, BuzzerBuzz and Encounters. Dallas-based artist collective Culture Hole will present Black Hole, White Hole / Surfin’ the Dream
Channels, a two- part radio program that addresses themes of non-locality, psychological states, hyper- objectivity and modes of collaboration. Anna Barham’s I feel love considers the seemingly simple lyrics of a Donna Summer hit in an audio recording of a live group reading that took place in London in 2014. This year’s edition of Untitled, Radio in Miami Beach will culminate in Path of Totality, a playlist inspired by the total solar eclipse by Los Angeles-based artist and composer Celia Hollander (also known as $3.33).
