KADIST x Palais de Tokyo

KADIST Paris and Palais de Tokyo present a joint exhibition as part of the Lithuanian Season in France, showcasing the works of a dozen artists spanning several generations. While most of the featured artists are Lithuanian, others are based in the region or in France. This project arises in response to the geopolitical upheaval caused by the war in Ukraine, reflecting on the ruptures and dislocations it has generated in time and space. Two years into the invasion, the exhibition probes what form of normality remains possible within the conflict zone as history seems to repeat itself. Running concurrently at KADIST Paris and Palais de Tokyo in autumn 2024, the exhibition concludes with a final edition at the Vilnius Contemporary Art Center in 2025. The show is curated by Neringa Bumblienė (CAC Vilnius) and Emilie Villez (KADIST Paris).

Fondation Galeries Lafayette presents total by Martine Syms

In her first French retrospective, American artist Martine Syms transforms the Lafayette Anticipations – Fondation Galeries Lafayette into a unique, hybrid space resembling a store, merging elements from her Los Angeles studio with a public setting. This immersive environment blurs the boundaries between public and private, intimate and collective, offering a reflection on culture and the spaces that shape it. Through reproductions of her studio and art pieces available for sale, Syms explores existential questions, turning the space into a ‘theater of the everyday,’ where everyday roles and societal controls are put on display. The exhibition, dubbed Total, delves into themes of surveillance and identity construction, questioning the constant capture of our image and how it shapes our reality. By blending personal references, historical archives, and cultural representations of blackness and feminism, Syms critiques consumerism as both performance and identity, challenging us to reflect on how our desires are shaped by culture and media.

French artist Justin Morin presents FLEURS DU MAL, a new project featuring ‘tattooed flowers,’ where flower petals become canvases for figurative drawings inspired by 1970s shoujo mangas (mangas for young girls), known for their romantic and dramatic themes. These delicate, ephemeral creations highlight the flower’s symbolic association with vanity in art history.

The Miami Heat played their first NBA preseason game on Tuesday, but fans were forced to wait longer before seeing Tyler Herro on the floor.

Herro, along with sophomore forward Jaime Jaquez Jr., was dealing with a groin injury, which forced him to miss the game. The former Sixth Man of the Year revealed Friday when he intends to debut.

“Not frustrating or annoying at all,” Herro said of the injury. “Feel pretty good, just excited to be back and playing. Nothing happened. I was just pretty sore after training camp ran a lot, and I was sore, so I needed a couple days. Yeah, I should be [good to go Sunday]. We’ll see what happens.”

The Heat are facing off against the New Orleans Pelicans in Herro’s anticipated debut. The 24-year-old appeared in just 42 games last year, a number that the coaching staff hopes skyrockets in the upcoming season. If Herro and Jimmy Butler can both remain healthy, expect the Heat to make considerable noise in the much improved Eastern Conference.

Herro was later asked about the importance of the ‘core four’ (Butler, Herro, Bam Adebayo, and Terry Rozier) getting reps together, where he made clear it’s about building chemistry with each player on the roster.

MIAMI – A man who worked at his family’s South Florida car dealership could face more than a decade in federal prison after a jury convicted him of carjacking a customer, officials with the U.S. Department of Justice announced Friday.

Prosecutors said the whole thing stemmed from an autopay issue that caused the victim to miss a loan payment on a 2020 Honda Accord.

The Miami federal jury convicted Erik Hadad, 58, of Aventura, on Tuesday, a DOJ news release states. Hadad worked at Guru Auto Sales, which was located at 2690 S. State Road 7 in Miramar. The business is listed on Google as “permanently closed.”

Authorities said the victim, a 24-year-old Haitian immigrant, bought the car from Guru in October 2023 and was not given a copy of the sales paperwork he signed.

“In making the purchase, the victim understood that he was paying a finance company,” the news release. “What the victim was not aware of was that there was an agreement between the finance company and Guru, and if the victim was late on a payment within the first two months of the loan, then the finance company could demand the approximately $13,800 it paid for the loan back from the dealership.”

Prosecutors continued, “That part of the agreement mattered because the victim’s first payment bounced after he set up autopay, with the victim paying the first installment late and with a late fee in late November 2023.”

Authorities said because of that, the finance company sent Guru a letter on Dec. 14, 2023, saying that the dealership needed to buy the loan back and owed about $13,000.

Prosecutors said the carjacking occurred five days later, even though the victim “was current on his account that day” and the dealership “was expressly told they couldn’t repossess the car.”

Nevertheless, authorities said Hadad followed the victim in a BMW near Miami International Airport.

Prosecutors said when the victim reached a red light at Le Jeune Road and Northwest 31st Street, “Hadad, whom the victim had never met before, got out of the black BMW in the middle of the intersection and approached the victim’s Honda, ripping off the paper temporary tag and aggressively yelling at the victim to get out of the car.”

“The victim was able to get away when the light turned green, but Hadad eventually caught up to the victim” at the MIA Tri-Rail station, authorities said, and Hadad “continued aggressively screaming for the victim to get out of the car.”

“Hadad lifted his shirt to reveal that he had a gun holstered in his waistband, which led the victim to surrender his keys,” the news release states.

The victim, “in shock,” called Miami-Dade police, who arrested Hadad, initially on state charges, and located the gun. The case later became federal as the Honda was, according to a federal indictment, “transported, shipped and received in interstate and foreign commerce.”

Hadad, an Israeli national, is scheduled to be sentenced on Jan. 9, prosecutors said.

According to the federal carjacking statute, Hadad could spend up to 15 years behind bars.
