Tiësto’s career is punctuated by landmark achievements – the first DJ in the world to sell out a solo stadium event for over 25,000 people 2 nights in a row, he scored a number one hit with his single Traffic, the first instrumental track to reach the top spot in his homeland of Holland in 23 years. His remix of Delerium featuring Sarah McLachlan’s Silence was the first house track ever broadcast on daytime radio in North America, (it became an international dancefloor anthem and also spent eight weeks in the UK top 10 chart). He played live in front of billions of people during the Parade of the Athletes at the official opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Athens. But despite his meteoric success, Tiësto remains grounded about his achievements and clearly loves making and playing music above the accolades it brings.

WEBSITE: Arte Contemporáneo, 2008
May 28 to June 1, 2008.
Arte Contemporaneo is an annual contemporary art festival that brings together international artists to participate in a series of exhibitions, public art projects, panel discussions, and conversations held throughout the beautiful seaside city of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
The organizers of this year’s inaugural festival have invited Los Angeles artists to participate in a cultural dialogue with Mexican artists around the ideas of extended borders, globalization, and hybrid identities—framed within the context of the ever-changing demographics of Puerto Vallarta.
All the participating artists have been included in major museum exhibitions, both in the United States and Mexico, and many have exhibited in the prestigious Whitney Biennial. In addition to painting, works will encompass the contemporary art practices of video, installation, and photography.
