A$AP Rocky was partying with Aaron Young. TV on the Radio was playing at the Miami Iron Side. James Blake crooned for the YoungArts Foundation. And yet Miami's most important event of the night was not one of the many magazine-, luxury-brand-, or gallery-sponsored soirees that raged until dawn but rather the local Shut It Down protest, which is part of a string of protests happening across the nation. For Miamians, it wasn't just about the injustice of a grand jury's recent decision not to indict officer Daniel Pantaleo, who was involved in the chokehold that led to the death of Eric Garner, as well as what has developed in Ferguson in recent weeks. In August of last year, a teenage graffiti artist named Israel “Reefa” Hernandez Llach suffered from sudden cardiac death after being Tased by a Miami Beach police officer. Again, the officer wasn't indicted. That Reefa...

A month ago today, an announcement appeared that had Twitter all aflutter: "On the occasion of the centennial of the birth of acclaimed film director and Hollywood legend Nicholas Ray (Galesville, 7 August 1911 - New York, 16 June 1979), the Venice Film Festival announces the world premiere screening on Sunday 4 September at the Lido of the restored/reconstructed copy of We Can't Go Home Again, the definitive version that is faithful to the original idea of Ray's posthumous masterpiece." A panel followed yesterday's screening, "with the participation of American director and actor James Franco and Spanish director Victor Erice, author with Jos Oliver of the book Nicholas Ray y su tiempo (Madrid, 1986). Also invited at the panel are the acclaimed visual artist and filmmaker Douglas Gordon, and Henry Hopper — the son of Dennis Hopper, who starred in Rebel Without a Cause (1955) and accompanied Nicholas Ray in several of his subsequent artistic endeavors.

HollywoodNews.com: There’s been a lot of speculation about why James Franco’s art installation in New York was shut down last week. His “High Low/Rob Lowe” show at the Asia Song Society in Soho (aka Ass) had a hot (literally) opening night, but then was suddenly put out of business. The show included readings from Rob Lowe’s recent autobiography on video. But it also included the “Three’s Company” installation that Franco put together last winter at Sundance. That piece was fun and a big hit. Actor Richard Kline, who played Larry on the show, even came to Sundance to check it out.
But apparently the creators of “Three’s Company” had only given permission for use at Sundance, and didn’t realize it could go on to other venues. Franco’s astute manager Miles Levy realized this too late, and decided it was best to...

James asked Rob to contribute to his piece in a major art exhibit but, apparently, the ‘Twilight’ heartthrob ‘didn’t get the point’!
James Franco is an actor, director, writer, and student so it’s no surprise he’d stretch himself even further into the world of contemporary art. James is participating in the invite-only Venice Biennale art exhibit, but apparently fellow-actor Robert Pattinson thinks the 127 Hours star should stick to acting!
In an interview with Playboy, James revealed plans for his project, to be presented at the Venice, Italy, art exhibit, but admitted that not everyone was a fan of his ideas!
“It’s a huge project I’m incredibly honored and proud to be presenting,” said James, “It’s based on Rebel Without a Cause, and some of the best contemporary artists alive—Paul McCarthy, Douglas Gordon, Ed Ruscha, Aaron Young, Damon McCarthy and Harmony Korine—worked on different sections.
