Taking place side by side with Design Miami, Art Basel will begin on the 5th of December at Miami Beach. You can expect a total of over 200 galleries and 4000 artists from all over the place, as well as a large showcase of modern and contemporary displays. Basel Shows is going to let you in on the essentials you can’t miss!

The concept of the Art Basel fair was created in 1970 by Basel gallerists Ernst Beyeler, Trudl Bruckner, and Balz Hilt. Its purpose focused on the showcase of the work of emerging contemporary artists by bringing together galleries, collectors and members of the public.

Throughout the days of Art Basel Miami Beach 2019, there will be a massive showcase of paintings, sculptures, installations, photographs, films, and editioned works of the highest quality that are on display in the main exhibition hall. Every attendee can find works from editioned pieces by young artists to museum-categorized masterpieces.

From December 5-8th, Miami Beach Convention Centre will host an amazing art fair that’s recognized on an international level, the Art Basel Miami Beach. With editions in Basel and Hong Kong, now is the time for Miami Beach to shine and bring you over 200 galleries and 4000 artists, from North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia, to represent the modern and contemporary design.

This year, there’s a special contribution of more U.S. and Latin American exhibitors than ever before. More than half of the exhibitors have bases in North and South America, providing what the organizers call a “unique overview” of the hemisphere’s art scene. Also, and for the first time, the event will also host a new “sector,” dedicated to large-scale works. Curated by Magalí Arriola, director of Mexico City’s Museo Tamayo, the Meridians sector will feature some 30 oversized pieces.

Also within this event, there are many other activities planned such as Art Kids, School Groups and Helpful Hints (for kids), guided tours, cultural institutions filled with opportunities of Modern and Contemporary art, bookstores and restaurants.
