ART BASEL MIAMI BEACH

Here is a list of the biggest parties and events that you can attend during Miami Art Week.

Artists, dreamers, fun-seekers, admirers and foodies are coming together as the art world converges in the Magic City for Miami Art Week.

Today, the City of Miami Beach announced the three finalists in its Legacy Purchase Program. The annual program tasks the city’s Art in Public Places Committee to select three world class pieces of artwork from the emerging artists of the Art Basel Miami Beach Positions and Nova Sections with an $80,000 budget. The city then asks the public to vote for its favorite, and the winning artwork will be purchased by the City of Miami Beach to go on permanent view in the Miami Beach Convention Center. This year the three finalists are Elizabeth Atterbury (presented by DOCUMENT, Chicago) Ana Prata (presented by Isla Flotante, Buenos Aires), and Juana Valdés (presented by Spinello Projects, Miami). “Miami Beach is proud of our robust Art in Public Places program, and we are excited to add one of these incredible works to our collection as this year’s Legacy Purchase,” said Mayor Dan Gelber.

It's hard to think of a more influential force in the development of Miami's art scene than the duo of Christo and Jeanne-Claude. Surrounded Islands was the young city's first major exposure to the world of contemporary art; from there sprung Art Basel Miami Beach and the dozen or so museums and private collections that helped establish Miami's artistic community. Prez Art Museum Miami looked back on the installation in its exhibition "Christo and Jeanne-Claude: Surrounded Islands, Biscayne Bay, Greater Miami, Florida, 198083," which ran from October 2018 through this past February. Traditionally, Christo and Jeanne-Claude financed their projects independently by selling these drawings, which are remarkable works of art in and of themselves. Though Jeanne-Claude was instrumental to Christo as a partner in art and in life, the now-84-year-old has kept busy since her passing.

This time, he would examine Basels nascent Hong Kong fair and how it related to that major metropolitan citys artists. As Moonlights production was pushed forward, so was Hevias move to Hong Kong to prepare for the art fairs opening in mid-March 2016. I was supposed to get to Hong Kong in September, and then I would have had something like five months to do my research, but... You are fucked.Throughout the film, art seems to take a backseat to Hevias experience of trying to cobble together the documentary. I overestimated how easy it would be to understand the circumstance in Hong Kong, Hevia admits, so I definitely ran into a wall very quickly.
