October 4, 2024 @ 9:00 am - January 3, 2025 @ 5:00 pm

Members-Only Exhibit “Anthropologist’s Delight,” Opens October 4 With Free Reception

Fort Lauderdale — When anthropologists unearth our present-day culture a thousand years from now, what will the artwork they find tell them about us and how we lived?

ArtServe posed this question to its local member artists and invited them to display the artwork they feel best represents themselves, their lives, family and culture in an exhibit, Anthropologist’s Delight, that opens Friday, October 4 with a free reception from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at ArtServe in Fort Lauderdale.

“Humans have been creating art for as long as we’ve been on the Earth,” ArtServe CEO Jason Hughes said. “What they’ve left behind has taught us so much about human nature, what we valued back then, what the world looked like at that time and how important community has always been for us ever since.”

Anthropologist’s Delight, which features all types of mediums and focuses on the themes of legacy, culture, humanities and personal interpretations of what being an artist means, is on display through Friday, January 3 and will be open for viewing on New Year’s Day, Wednesday, January 1.
ArtServe is located at 1350 E. Sunrise Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale and is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Daily admission is free.

ArtServe inspires, supports and advances its diverse members, artists and community by promoting artistic development, education and prosperity through the exploration and presentation of the visual and performing arts.

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
