An Exercise in Style: Narciso Rodriguez Exhibition at the Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum
Rodriguez’s work simply transcends fashion. The pieces featured flow perfectly with the paintings and sculptures that complement the exhibit. Rodriguez’s designs owe much to Cuban painters and Brazilian architects–he’s a declared fan of Oscar Niemeyer’s. But his couture is beyond a mere appropriation or a reference to others. His work, despite influences, stands by its own merit.
Chef Douglas Rodriguez
You’ll see the same introduction on every google bio of Chef Douglas Rodriguez – “James Beard Award Winner”, “Godfather of Nuevo Latino Cuisine”, “Top Chef Master on First Season of Bravo’s Chopped” (my personal favorite), and the endless list of his award-winning restaurants all over the country.
