‘Anchors of Light’ reframes 30 years of MOCA North Miami

The Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami (MOCA) celebrates its 30th anniversary with a new exhibition, “Anchors of Light,” which opened on April 15. Curated by Miami native Catherine Camargo, founder of Queue Gallery, the show features nearly 50 artists from the museum’s collection, including historical figures like Robert Rauschenberg and Claes Oldenburg, past retrospective subjects such as Maryan S. Maryan and Edouard Duval-Carrie, and local favorites Purvis Young and Pepe Mar. The exhibition includes a video corridor for multiple video works, addressing space constraints, and highlights Camargo’s preference for dark, muted colors and unconventional materials, exemplified by Will Boone’s painting “Widowmaker.”

The Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami (MOCA) is celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2026. Founded two decades before Art Basel Miami Beach transformed the city into a global art destination, MOCA began as a small one-room gallery dedicated to contemporary work from South Florida. Under Executive Director Chana Sheldon, who has led the museum since 2018, the institution has fostered connections between local creatives and the international art world, mounting landmark exhibitions such as “AFRICOBRA: Messages to the People” (2018), which later traveled to the Venice Biennale. Current shows include a 15-year survey of Hiba Schahbaz and the first museum exhibition of Diana Eusebio, both curated by women.
