The Pérez Art Museum Miami, abbreviated PAMM, is a contemporary art museum located in the center of Miami, in the state of Florida. It was founded in 1984 as the Center for Fine Arts and changed to the Miami Art Museum in 1996. It wasn't until 2013 that the museum changed its current name and location, moving from East Flagler Street to Downtown Miami. The current name comes from a donation by Jorge M. Pérez, the largest private donor. Additionally, Mr. Pérez is a well-known and respected administrator and collector of Latin American art. During my visit there was one piece of art that caught my attention. It was painted by Sue Coe, born in Tamworth, England in 1951, and living in New York. The name of this work is Pinochet, and it is a mixed media collage on paper. The painting shows the tunnels under the National Stadium in Santiago, Chile which were used by coup plotters as detention, torture and execution centers during the Pinochet dictatorship. To the left is a pile of blood-covered corpses. The red of blood, in fact, is the only color other than black, white and gray that predominates in the painting, giving a sense of death, cruelty and nightmare. In the center we see soldiers pointing their weapons at a group of civilians who will probably be executed. On the right we find a group of prisoners, probably waiting to be executed (center), to be later moved to the pile on the left. The fact that the author has included a Pepsi vending machine is a clear reference to the complicity of US multinationals with Pinochet's unconstitutional government, due to the privatization of many industries previously managed by Salvador Allende's government. This masterpiece is a reflection of the...... middle of paper ...... there was a very special exhibition of some of his works, called Basquiat: The Unknown Notebooks. It consisted of pages of ordinary notebooks, but with observations, sketches, ideas and fragments of poems, both from popular culture and from world and racial history. These pieces were truly unique and the sketches had a special touch that I had never seen before in any other artwork. Basquiat's work was very simple, but with strong ideas and a clear message. This was the beauty of his work. During my visit to the Pérez Art Museum Miami, I did more than just look at beautiful works of art. With the guidelines provided I was also able to appreciate and study the hidden meaning of some of the pieces I had in front of me. Some of them were easier than others, thanks to the previous knowledge I had, but they all pushed me to examine them in a critical way that enriched my cultural heritage.
