Craig Robins collection 2024-2025 exhibition: The Sleep of Reason
The Craig Robins Collection in Miami, housed within Dacra’s Miami Design District headquarters, showcases over 1,500 pieces of contemporary art and groundbreaking design. For the 2024-2025 exhibition, the Collection highlights works by German artists Kai Althoff (b. 1966) and Jana Euler (b. 1982), who explore intense, often unsettling imagery in their drawings, paintings, and sculptures that evoke complex emotional states.
Other featured works include recent additions from Jill Mulleady, Mario Ayala, Karon Davis, Bony Ramirez, and Alteronce Gumby. Over 300 works provide a comprehensive look at contemporary figurative art from the past three decades, alongside Conceptualist pieces by John Baldessari, Joseph Beuys, and Richard Tuttle, as well as design classics by Jean Prouvé, Zaha Hadid, Ron Arad, Marc Newson, Maarten Baas, and Samuel Ross.
Founded by Craig Robins in 1987, Dacra focuses on real estate development with a unique approach that combines commerce with culture, using art and design to elevate the architectural environment.

Cartier Trinity 100 Pop-Up
Cartier is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its legendary Trinity collection with an immersive pop-up event in Miami from December 4–8, 2024. The Trinity 100 experience traces the history of this iconic jewelry line, from its inception in 1924 by Louis Cartier to today.
This event spans five spaces: a room honoring Jean Cocteau, who brought the collection to fame with his stacked pinky rings in the 1930s, a look at Trinity’s cultural influence, and a section devoted to the symbolic number three, which recurs in many Cartier designs. The experience culminates with a showcase of historical pieces from the Cartier Collection, and guests are invited to try on current Trinity jewelry. Complimentary timed entry can be reserved at cartier.com.
