Perez Art Museum of Miami

Perez Art Museum of Miami (PAMM) is a contemporary art museum located in Miami, Florida, United States of America. The institution focuses on presenting modern and contemporary art from the 20th and 21st centuries, with an emphasis on international artists and works that reflect the cultural diversity of the region. PAMM maintains a permanent collection that includes paintings, sculptures, installations, and multimedia pieces, and it regularly organizes temporary exhibitions that explore current artistic trends and societal themes. In addition to its exhibition program, the museum offers educational initiatives such as lectures, workshops, and community outreach programs aimed at engaging diverse audiences. The museum also provides public amenities including a café, a museum store, and spaces for private events.

The museum distinguishes itself through its commitment to showcasing art that addresses global issues while maintaining a strong connection to the local Miami community. Its building, designed by the architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron, features distinctive hanging gardens and open spaces that integrate the museum with the adjacent Museum Park and Biscayne Bay. PAMM operates as a nonprofit cultural organization, relying on a combination of private donations, membership support, and public funding to sustain its activities. The institution’s role in the cultural sector is highlighted by its participation in regional art fairs and collaborations with other museums and cultural institutions. Notably, in September 2020 PAMM was affected by a data breach involving its cloud service provider Blackbaud, which exposed donor information following a ransomware attack on the provider.
