To introduce its new Unlimited Plan, Verizon have commissioned a unique piece of artwork from Miami muralist, Abstrk. Since the Grove is quiet this time of year, it's a perfect time to visit Wynwood to see the work. The art will be painted on the side of three stacked shipping containers.
Abstrk, born and raised in Miami, used so much of Miami as inspiration for the project - the global cuisine, unique architectural style, rich array of cultures, and the vibrant art scene.
Abstrk's work draws you into his pieces with movement and color.
From his website: "With a background in graffiti, Abstrk's work consists of forms pulled off of outlines and letter structure as well as traditional fine art. His work can be diverse in subject matter at the same time always relative to his style-isms and shapes. Abstrk's work can be found on canvas as well as walls throughout the United States and the Caribbean."
This new exciting piece of art will be unveiled at a free party sponsored by Verizon on Friday, June 23, from 6 to 9 pm at 2250 NW 2nd Avenue in Wynwood.
There will be free food and drinks for the first 1500 people to arrive before 8 pm. DJ Extreme from TU FM will spin from 6 to 9 pm.
The big unveiling will be at 7:15 pm, Enrique Santos from TU FM will do the honor.
Use the #VZUnlimitedMiami hashtag to share the art on social media. And check for that hashtag on Instagram because DJ Enrique will be streaming live!
