The vital and most important aim of \u201cThe Prada Double Club Miami\u201d is to allow art to move outside its usual restrictive contexts transforming it into a real-life experience.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-24376\" src=\"http:\/\/artzealous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/The-Prada-Double-Club-Miami_opening-event_Pierre-Bjork_4-e1512567468786.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"654\" height=\"436\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The project takes place at Ice Palace Studios, a former, yes, ice factory. The installation is divided into an internal club space and an outdoor tropical garden, one being entirely monochromatic, the other hyper-polychromatic. International live music acts and DJs are showcased in one space, whereas the other hosts a range of Caribbean and South American diasporas from Miami. Each performer embodies the oppositional concept behind the project itself: guests and clubbers can cross a permeable boundaries to venture into a double dimension and \u201cschizophrenic\u201d journey.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-24375\" src=\"http:\/\/artzealous.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/The-Prada-Double-Club-Miami_opening-event_Pierre-Bjork_2-e1512567453273.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"651\" height=\"434\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Guests included\u00a0Miuccia Prada, Carsten H\u00f6ller, Virgil Abloh, J.W.
