Lincoln Road Unveils Monumental Sculptures for Art Week Miami Beach

Sponsored By

November 19 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Ahead of Art Week Miami Beach, the iconic premiere pedestrian promenade Lincoln Road unveils two monumental sculptures in a walking press conference that begins at the 400 block. In partnership with the City of Miami Beach, Daniel Anderson’s “XO World” makes its Florida debut on the road where it will be proudly displayed through June 30, 2025. The artwork – spanning over 12 feet high and 24 feet long, made from 20,000 pounds of stainless steel – is inspired by the game of jacks. The “X” of the sculpture, a jack (aka “love jack”) with crossed arms, which signifies “love” in sign language, represents the four pillars of equality, unity, peace and love. The “O” is represented by a globe, bringing humanity together as one. Joining “XO World” on Lincoln Road is “Dream Machine” by visual artist Rubem Robierb. The life-size sculptural wings, representing the materialization of our innermost wishes and deep-rooted desire for our dreams to come true, will be on display through April 2025.

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.
