Curated by Allan Shulman, one of Miami's most prominent architects, Promises of Paradise: Staging Mid-Century Miami delineates the potential of this city as a tropical paradise in the '50s and '60s. This historical showcase presents the vision of architects (like Morris Lapidus and Alfred Browning Parker), urban planners, designers, and decorative artists who helped to define the aesthetic of the era. Photos, plans, documents, and archival materials contribute to the exhibition.
