On December 3rd, Art Basel Miami will storm South Florida for the 8th year in a row. For four days, Miami Beach will be taken over by the "art world". More than 250 of the world's leading art galleries will show works by more than 2,000 of the leading artists of the 20th and 21st centuries.
It's a lot to take in.
This makes me happy. For myself, a yearly attendee, it's a whirlwind of inspiration and awe, battling disgust and confusion (some of the art can be quite absurd). The Miami Beach Convention Center, the epicenter for Art Basel, is where I will hang out; not only to take in the works of art (some ranging in the millions of dollars), but to take in the works of art walking around. Yes, Art Basel is a fantastic people watching venture as well.
For those not looking to take out a 2nd mortgage and purchase anything, it is still a magnificent, culturally awakening experience that I recommend for all.
To purchase tickets, view a full list of galleries attending, or look for any more valid information that I didn't provide, check out the official Art Basel Miami Beach site. Enjoy!
