The Rem Koolhaas-designed Faena Forum in Miami, which is due to open in autumn 2016 as the US home for the international arts foundation started by the Miami-based Argentine real estate developer Alan Faena, has announced its inaugural commissions. They include Conga Irreversible by the Cuban collective Los Carpinteros, which was originally produced for the Havana Biennial in 2012 and which will be “reimagined in the context of Miami”, according to a release. Other forthcoming projects include Tree of Codes, a collaboration between the artist Olafur Eliasson, the music producer Jamie xx and the choreographer Wayne McGregor.
