Presentation of the art weekend

More than 6000 artists exhibit during the art weekend, mainly in the field of contemporary art, both in Miami Beach and Downtown or Wynwood, with nearly 500 international galleries present, from around thirty countriesDifferent: Miami becomes for a week a colony of artists!The diversity of exhibitors and exhibitions prevents there to be a common theme, or artists highlighted in relation to the others: generally only the names of the galleries are put forward in the weeks preceding art weekend, but reassureYou: all the great contemporary artists are exhibited there!Whether you love quality art, whether you are amused by wacky contemporary productions, or you don't know anything but just enjoy selfies in colorful places: there is something for everyone during MiamiArt Week!

Introduction in video:

The essential fairs are: Art Miami (Miami Downtown), Art Basel (in Miami Beach), Red Dot (Miami Wynwood) and Miami River Art Fair (Miami Brickell).If you are a fan of contemporary art, you may start with Art Basel: more than 4,000 artists and more than 250 galleries present.However, many believe that "Basel" has dropped in quality, and prefer art Miami, which is also immense.

If this is the first time that you go to a contemporary art fair, you will certainly judge certain works present at Art Basel as being "bizarre". Yes, it's like on TV, and in 2019 during the last edition of Art Basel it was a banana taped on a wall that attracted all the attention. But, really, it's not just pyramids of toilet paper and open doors on nothing: everything is not bad. To be clear, most of the works in question are in Art Basel, there are much less on the other fairs of the Miami Art Week. Better to know: early December in Miami, hundreds of little -known artists (whether bad or beginners) (which is not the same thing) and exhibiting directly in galleries, ensure more " snoring "that they" exhibit at Basel ". It makes a disproportionate pub at the Miami Beach fair, which is not necessarily the best.

There is a "valet parking" service in Art Basel, but also "water taxis" and free shuttles connecting the various sites of Miami and Miami Beach.

In the list of fairs (at the bottom of this page), we have put the day entry price, but you also have packages for the duration of the fair (see on their websites).

Miami 2021: an art weekend like no other

vu par Gabrielle HB-Abada

Curator and art critic.

The 2021 edition of Art Basel Miami and its art weekend will have a unique taste, it is above all the big reunions between tangible art: the one that we can see and touch - and therefore naturally feel - andthe public.

Aficionados already have a well -traced route, nothing retains the last -minute surprises and there will be ... but for the time being, it would be wise to concoct a "roadbook" for the most electric week of 2021, at Miami.

Organize to discover and reconnect with his "friends" from art with a Grand A.

Miami Art Week et Art Basel 2021 : suivez le guide pour la grande semaine d’art ! - Le Courrier des Amériques

Galleries and French -speaking artists will not miss during this edition and all reserve us to compensate for our added shortcomings…

A l’instar de la Galerie Bartoux qui expose sur trois lieux à la fois du 30 novembre au 5 décembre, à Art Miami avec un stand réservé au travail tant apprécié de Carlos Cruz Diez (Booth A23),à Context avec les œuvres de Gabriel Moreno, Roberta Coni, Noé Two, Roman Feral , Fred Allard, Hom Nguyen parmi d autres talents et les œuvres de Bruno Catalano en sculptures de voyageurs suspendus …accueillant à l’entrée de la foire, mais aussidans leur galerie du Design District où l’on retrouve l’ensemble de leur portfolio.

L’artiste Kai sera lui aussi notre « chouchou » de la semaine avec son solo show : « Before it’s too late »@ Art Miami , représenté par Markowicz Fine Art.

Hotels also will not hesitate to invite within their walls for this arty week ...

Ainsi l’immaculé Boutique-Hôtel de South Beach : Blanc Kara – managé par notre Belge bien-aimée: Cynthia Legrand-Scandiffio – présentera les dernières œuvres de Capucine Safir dont la taille de ses sculptures s’apparente à de la joaillerie. Un solo show a ne pas manquer, ouvert au public toutes les après-midis du 1er au 5 décembre.

Œuvre de Capucine Safir

Le Sagamore, hôtel iconique « rendez-vous du dernier jour » avec son Arty brunch, présente Leo et Stef , « The star duo of Pop Art », un duo d’artistes franco-brésilien dont le personnage « KID CUP » est maintenant inscrit dans l’inconscient collectif.

The little angels of the famous rosé "Whispering Angels" will water the "parties" from the first evening with the opening of Art Basel and the evening of December 1, in the LuxuriantMiami Beach Botanical Garden, just in front of the Center Convention.

Il y a aussi tous les événements privés satellites, comme ceux de Sotheby’s, comme celui organisé pour les happy fews de Cocoplum, par Joan Jimenez, qui présente les oeuvres de Polen Cerci, Marie Pierre Maquet aka MPM, d’Alys Paola et de Armando Colls, au cœur même du superbe domaine de Coral Gables.

De nombreuses hommages, dont celui du jeune prodige Charles Molina, ont déjà illuminé la Arty City avant le début des festivités et comme l’a délicatement annoncé le Consul de Belgique: Michel Gerebtzoff, lors de son invitation à Miami : « Le sens d’une vie est d’y découvrir sa beauté », L’art y participe largement ! Alors comme l’art est une émotion votre « Roadtrip » devra, lui aussi, vous ressembler.

Beautiful arty walk!

Particularities of the 2021 art weekend

- STUDIO probably exhibits "Tomorrowland": monumental sculptures in the streets of Miami District Design, but also at the entrance to the Miami design fair which is a partner and which explains here what it is: www.shop.designmiami.com/Blogs/News/A-STABOLD-LOOK-DESIGN-Miami-2021

- If you are not tired of the "immersion exhibitions" of the genus dedicated to Van Gogh, there are still and always in Miami, including "Superblue" which is in front of the Rubell Museum and which allows you to visitboth at the same time if you wish.In any case there will be new exhibitions in both places.At the Rubell you will be able to see (until October 2022) the canvases of Ghanaian Otis Kwame Kye Quaicoe who was "artist in residence" at the museum this year.

Otis Kwame Kye Quaicoe

- Still Banksy.An exhibition is announced from December 10, but in a "secret" place.We will not buy our places in advance for this kind of half anonymous things, but hey, if you are fans: www.feverup.com/m/100542

NFT features

NFT that means "non-fungible token" (non-fongible token): a block (like "blockchain" currencies) which represents a digital object, and in this case a work of art, but this "token" hasA clean and unique identity.If you own the work, you ... owner the work.Which is a bit of a pleonasm in the digital world (where everything is copy) but in any case that is how it is presented!And it allows you to value a digital work.This year one of them was auctioned $ 69M at Christie’s.

The first local convention on the subject will take place in Art Basel on November 30: www.nftbzl.com

There can also be works at the crossroads of the two universes.For example, if during the art weekend you will bathe in the iconic swimming pool of the Chiquissime Hotel Faena in Miami Beach, be careful to avoid icebergs: there are two installed by artist Carlos Betancourt (in representation of global warming).And, therefore, the NFT of this installation will then be sold: www.aorist.art

There will thus be a lot of NFT presentations during the art weekend.Miami Herald made a special page on the subject: www.miamiherald.com/ertertainment/visual-arts/art-basel/article255769561.html


Where to spend your evenings during the art weekend

Art Week is also a large number of evenings, in the clubs of South Beach hotels and other discos from Miami Beach: Liv (Hotel Fontainebleau), Delano, 1 Hotel, Faena, The Confident, W South Beach, Soho Beach House, The Plymouth, at the Rooftop swimming pool of Strawberry Moon… You can also venture to South Beach at Sweet Liberty or Broken Shaker, Mia Rooftop, or even go to an after -edition: in all These places you will not be bored (most look open but check all the same due to sanitary restrictions, certain hotels may have suspended clubs). Wynwood luxury and trend that was originally found Now mix in certain places with a "funfair" side: the district is in any case invaded by hundreds of thousands of people and there are parties absolutely every evening in all clubs, but also in the "villages" created For the occasion, for example at East and west of Mana (where the Red Dot, Spectrum and Pinta fairs take place). Or at the Racket club.
