| ART Thursday 2/17 ARTIST'S EVOLUTIONCuban-born artist Rafael Soriano's works span from his folkloric themes that dominated Cuban art in the mid '20s to geometric abstraction in the '50s and a defined, signature approach by the late '60s.

RESTITUTION SOUGHT As Nazi reign overtook 1930s Germany, the livelihoods of many Jewish citizens were stripped away. Dr. Max Stern suffered such a fate when his license to trade art at his gallery was taken away because he was Jewish, and he was forced to auction his artworks at extremely devalued rates. After his death in 1987, a project began to collect those works auctioned off. "Auktion 392: Reclaiming the Galerie Stern, Dusseldorf" examines his story and the restitution of art looted by the Nazis, some of which is on display. Ends April 25. Jewish Museum of Florida, 301 Washington Ave., Miami Beach. Details: (305) 672-5044 or www.jewishmuseum.com.
