***Galleria Ca’ d’Oro, one of Rome’s most respected contemporary art galleries, announces the Miami Beach premier of the REgeneration Art Project. An international sensation, this engaging public art series by renowned artistic collective Cracking Art Group uses art to encourage awareness of important environmental issues. For the Miami Beach debut, Galleria Ca’ d’Oro and Cracking Art Group will strategically place 45 pink snails—25 measuring 8ft tall, 6ft wide and 11 ft long and another 20 snails measuring 3ft tall, 2.5ft wide and 4ft long, every one made of recycled plastic—throughout the city. This playful presentation is designed to inspire a community-wide conversation about the importance of recycling and its environmental impact, while leaving a potent artistic trace on the Miami Beach area.***
