--> Renowned Autistic Artist Vito Bonanno’s Artwork in the Corporate Collections of AMAZON and Google. Internationally collected artist Vito Bonanno taps into the daily emotional and social challenges of living with autism, placing his innermost feelings onto canvas. The New England-based artist's work is image and concept-driven and embedded in his personal philosophy. His art contains the essence of his life, feelings, thoughts, and dreams, coupled with objects or topics that "get stuck in his head", including traffic lights, grids, ceiling fans, graffiti, and pop culture. Corporate clients include AMAZON, Google, and The Hartford. Bonanno was diagnosed with PDD/Autism just before his 4th birthday. Because he was language delayed, his parents and teachers developed strategies that tapped into his high visual acuity, utilizing storyboard styles to relay academic and social information. He was also encouraged to draw in storyboard format to express his feelings. The storyboard grid remains prominent in his work and studio preparation today and is a poignant reminder of a boy who was trapped in his own mind. Learn more about this fascinating artist, see link for more info.

--> The Betsy Orb: “The Egg” Connecting Miami Beach’s Architectural Past and Present. Known as The Betsy Orb, and affectionately referred to by many as “The Egg,” the distinctive skybridge connects The Betsy's original Ocean Drive property with the former Carlton Hotel building on Collins Avenue. What makes the structure particularly fascinating is the contrast between the historic architecture surrounding it and its contemporary sculptural form. Rather than competing with the buildings, the Orb creates a visual conversation between Miami Beach's architectural past and its evolving cultural identity. The Betsy Hotel itself describes the Orb as an “orb-shaped skybridge” and highlights it alongside the property's Poetry Rail and other art and design elements.
