Window Stopping: Woman Pays $1,300 A Night To Stay In Airbnb Shop Window

By Joseph GolderA prank Airbnb listing for $1,300 for a night in a shop window display has backfired after an American tourist snapped it up. The listing was supposed to serve as a joke as part of the international Art Basel art fair in Switzerland. A shop window was offered as accommodation on Airbnb – for the steep price of CHF 3,300 ($1,300) per night during Art Basel art fair, in June 2022, and got actually booked. “Now the night in the shop window only costs $1,337. It is also currently unclear if the Leihlager store plans to list the rental for next year’s Basel art fair.

A retrospective guide to Miami Art Week

Amidst all the chaos, Art Basel is but one of the many events that occur during Miami Art Week. Ever since Art Basel was founded in Switzerland, global buying interest stimulates the creation of a marketplace where galeries reflect the universal art world. When visiting, It’s important to remember that the main purpose of Art Basel is for dealers to purchase and exchange art. Like Art Basel, the event is similarly blueprinted into sectioned art gallery booths, but the smaller size and neutral backgrounds create a loftier feel than the distinct differentiations found at Art Basel. The art is fresh and often experimental in the most peculiar ways—a great introduction to the heavy hitters at Art Basel.

Miami Art Week gives local community of creatives hope during coronavirus pandemic

Art Basel Miami Beach has made it exciting to have an art career in Miami. Although the coronavirus pandemic forced the international event’s cancelation at the Miami Beach Convention Center, Miami Art Week is forging on until Sunday. To support Miami Art Week, Art Basel is also co-hosting a few events. The Miami Art Week events require the use of face masks and social distancing. “Part of people’s healing and part of this city’s healing will be to, you know, experience art together and I think that that’s what Miami Art Week is about,” Houston said.

Jada Brings Art With a Message to Miami Art Week

When Art Basel announced in September that it wouldn’t be returning to the Miami Beach Convention Center for Miami Art Week this year, the disappointment was felt in the global art community. Others soon followed suit, with satellite events like Art Miami, SCOPE Art, and NADA forgoing their annual Florida editions. Jada Art Fair, however, is keeping the spirit of Miami Art Week alive and pushing forward with its in-person exhibitions from Thursday, December 3, through Sunday, December 6. The pair met a few years ago during Miami Art Week through one of Chimen's exhibits. Jada Art Fair.

Increase in cases of COVID-19 causing several major South Florida events to be postponed or cancelled

MIAMI – The coronavirus pandemic is forcing some popular events that bring tons of visitors and money into South Florida to be cancelled. With the positive cases of COVID-19 on the rise in South Florida, some events have even been postponed to next year due to them potentially becoming super spreader events. Art Basel has been canceled in Miami Beach, a big loss to the economy and tourism industry. In Fort Lauderdale, the Winterfest Boat Parade set to take place next month is a no-go. The big New Year’s Eve downtown countdown in Fort Lauderdale has yet to be decided upon.

City officials, she continued, are considering having an “art week trolley” that will link the activations together and make them more accessible. The city has no set budget for Art Week, she said, but rather a budget for each individual activation.

Art Basel Announces "OVR: Miami Beach" and Design Miami Set to Return to the Design District

Essentially a virtual art fair, "OVR:2020" seemed to go fairly well for Art Basel during its four-day run in September. Perhaps sensing an opportunity to stay engaged with the global art market, Art Basel has announced the Miami Beach show is back on — sort of. "OVR: Miami Beach" will act as a virtual version of the show usually held at the Miami Beach Convention Center, running from December 4-6 with preview days on December 2-4. Yes, Design Miami, Art Basel's sister fair focused on furniture, lighting, and other decorative arts, will go forward in December.

MIAMI, Fla. – Joe Exotic has arrived in Miami. A 16-foot mural of the “Tiger King” documentary subject has been painted in the Wynwood neighborhood.

Vandal Who Wrote Epstein Message on Art Basel Banana Wall Back in Miami Court

Sick of hearing about the Art Basel banana? "I expect to rack up substantial expenses traveling back and forth to court, and fighting this legal battle will be a Sisyphusian [sic] task," Webber wrote in a blog post yesterday. The duct-taped banana at Art Basel is gone and has been replaced with Epstein Didnt Kill Himself, which security quickly covered up. In his blog post, Webber wrote he has not received equal treatment. Webber posted a video of himself driving to the estate after he bonded out of jail for the Art Basel incident.

Peeling the $120,000 Art Basel Banana

The selling price isn't what made the piece noteworthy, because art regularly goes for ten times that amount at Basel. The New York Post put the banana on the front page, which declared "Art World Gone Mad." This happened and here's the video: someone ripped the Maurizio Cattelan banana off the wall at @ArtBasel and ATE IT ???? But because Caillebotte dared to depict a working-class subject, the painting was banned by the Salon the Art Basel of its day for "vulgar subject matter." As Perrotin declared, it's a "reflection of ourselves," which means you see whatever you want to see in it.

Rakastella 2019 Was the Right Festival at the Wrong Time

At the most recent edition of Rakastella, the 17-hour electronic music festival that's annually taken over Historic Virginia Key Beach Park during Miami Art Week for the past three years, everything you needed to find was within steps. Photo by Christian VillarealThere's just one problem: The festival takes place the Saturday of Miami Art Week, which means Rakastella lands at the tail end of days of partying, drinking, networking, and all-consuming stress for Miamians. Likewise, during Art Week, you might ask yourself whether there's some cooler, more exclusive party you could be attending instead of the event you're at now. But right now, it's just a really good Art Week party. If it takes a star-stacked gathering such as Rakastella to remind us of the simple, natural pleasures of life, we're fully behind it.

Kanye West's Opera Mary Shone on the Haters at Miami Marine Stadium

Fans flocked to Miami Marine Stadium this past Sunday to close out Art Week with the debut performance of Wests second opera, Mary. Mary, which was produced in collaboration with the Miami music festival III Points, follows the debut of West's first opera, Nebuchadnezzar, last month at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. Suddenly, a forceful hymn rang out through the speakers, and the sounds of gospel music followed a soulful "Mary, Mary, Mary." Regardless of whether attendees at Miami Marine Stadium felt the Holy Spirt this past Sunday, the production was phenomenal. In a sense, Mary was the only way Miami Art Week 2019 could have ended.

Five Only-in-Miami Stories of Art Chicanery

Just in time for the end of Art Basel, an alternate universe where duct-taped bananas are called art and men's clothing line tries to sell a $5 million T-shirt, here are five only-in-Miami stories of art-world chicanery. In 2011, an accused art thief arranged to buy ten paintings from an art dealer for about $1 million. The FBI Art Crime Team busted thieves who stormed a French museum and tried to sell stolen art in Miami. Jorge Prez, who has naming rights to Prez Art Museum Miami, was accused of donating a forged painting to the Frost Art Museum.

Artists of the Caribbean Explore Their Basin of Beauty and Grief

Its definitely a creole city, but it could do more to see these characteristics and the complex lives of Miami-dwelling Caribbean natives reflected through its visual arts. This is the position held by Bahamian art historian Erica Moiah James, a curator and assistant professor specializing in contemporary art of the Caribbean, African, and African American diasporas. Thats why on Friday, December 6, she and fellow Caribbean art curators David Scott, Nijah Cunningham, and Juliet Ali will take over the Little Haiti Cultural Center with the exhibition "The Visual Life of Social Affliction." The collection was designed to reflect the emotional and physical wounds endured by Caribbean peoples as the result of a long history of imperialist activities and marginalization. I am a huge fan of thematic, tightly curated shows, and also of giving global Caribbean art space to enunciate itself in a contemporary way," James says.

Art Basel artistry also comes in moving the artworkWritten by Catherine Lackner on December 3, 2019AdvertisementArt Basel has pumped billions into the local economy, and has helped create a new niche: firms that have quickly become experts in moving delicate and shockingly expensive art works. Art collectors and galleries generally employ art handlers who take responsibility for the works, he said. The art is crated in reusable solid wood thats not marked, so it stays under the radar, Mr. Withers said. The artist created the piece so that the head could be removed and re-attached onsite, Mr. Withers said. This exhibition is a labor of love for the people of Miami, not for Art Basel, but for the whole community, Mr. Shvo said in the release.
