Episode 56 - Natalie Kates

from Art Lovers Forum Podcast Hosted by Lois Whitman-Hess

The Miami art world is getting a jolt of New York energy. There is a new collaboration between Pendentive Studio and Kates-Ferri Projects that will bring artists represented by the New York City gallery to Miami audiences. The partnership kicks off Friday, March 13th with a group exhibition at Pendentive Studio (7615 Biscayne Blvd) featuring Lisu Vega and Juan Henriquez. Interior designer Phoebe O’Neill owns Pendentive Studio. The 56th episode of Art Lovers Forum was very fortunate to secure an interview with Natalie Kates so we can hear how this partnership will work and learn more about Natalie and the gallery she created on the lower east side of Manhattan with her husband Professor Fabrizio Ferri. Natalie is one of the most passionate gallerists I have ever spoken to. She has a spirit that allows her to move forward in a remarkable independent fashion. When Natalie believes in something she makes it work. She evaluates success by discovering, nurturing, and promoting emerging artists. That’s why she is very excited about displaying artwork in Miami. Natalie wants to explore and experiment with exhibiting artwork in a room filled with highly designed furniture and accessories. “It will be interesting to see the reaction of collectors when they walk into a room that is not white and empty. We just may be onto something.”
