The fall season is upon us with an abundance of exhibitions.

Four shows with male artists working in different media are at the
Coral Springs Museum of Art now through Nov. 20.

“Echoes of the Past” highlights the mixed media assemblages of Leo
Kaplan, who uses found objects and collectibles in Cornell-style
boxes. Kinetic sculptures made of acrylic with strips of color are
the stars of “Illusions with Color” by Len Janklow. “Through My Lens”
is a photographic essay of Peru by the award-winning Tamarac resident
Burt Hesselson. “Yuroz’s Narrative Culture of Cubism,” features the
romantic paintings of an Armenian-born artist by the solo name of
Yuroz. Call 954-340-5000.

“Lespri Endepandan: Discovering Haitian Sculpture,” through Dec. 6 at
the Frost Art Museum at the Florida International University in
Miami, features more than 50 artworks in iron, aluminum, glass,
papier-mache, terra cotta, wood and cement. The exhibition includes
work by Georges Liautaud, the deceased pioneer of recycling metal oil
drums into fanciful creations, and Jean Camille Nasson, whose
religious figures betray the artist’s conflicted feelings. Call
