When December comes around, we here only think of one thing…and it’s not Christmas…it’s Art Basel Miami! Taking place every December in Miami, Florida, Art Basel Miami is the premier arts festival on the east coast and only gets bigger every year.
I can put it no better than how Brett Sokol, the arts editor at Ocean Drive did:
“For all of the spectacle and the insane hype and the teeth gnashing in the art world about it, it is still an amazing opportunity to see incredible art all under one roof.”
This year was no exception, as the event was a massive success…besides the overbearing rain, of course. The audience, composed of art lovers, artists and savvy buyers, were in awe of what they witnessed. Daniel Arsham and KITH founder Ronnie Feig were among the noted names putting on gallery shows that received rave reviews and attendance numbers.
With 267 galleries and countless artists, the artists took over the Miami Beach Convention Center, and Miami Beach as a whole. It is an event we will cover for years to come, so look for more coverage next year when we take the event by storm.
