  • New at Art Basel Miami Beach 2019: Disruptions Exhibition from Art Basel Cities: Buenos Aires

    New at Art Basel Miami Beach 2019: Disruptions Exhibition from Art Basel Cities: Buenos Aires

    Disruptions: a new exhibition in Miami Beach as part of the Art Basel Cities partnership with Buenos Aires

    During the Art Basel Miami Beach 2019, Art Basel Cities: Buenos Aires will present a series of large-scale sculptures by Argentine artists in Collins Park. Based on the curatorial vision of Diana Wechsler and Florencia Battiti, the park will be host to sculptural works exploring the concepts of context and site, and its potential to interfere with everyday life. Participating artists include:  Matías Duville, Graciela Hasper, Marie Orensanz, Pablo Reinoso, Marcela Sinclair and Agustina Woodgate

    In the last phase of the partnership with Buenos Aires, Art Basel Cities has sought to bring Argentine artists of different generations, formations, and outputs to an international platform such as Miami Beach during Art Basel – allowing for new artistic discoveries, highlighting the strength, dynamism and vibrancy of the Argentine art scene. ‘Disruptions’, as its title suggests, focuses on intervening in an urban landscape enabling the viewer to
    interact and be confronted with works outside the more traditional exhibition space. More than a merely aesthetic proposition, art in this space can become a tool for encountering, interacting, and questioning potentially overly familiar environment.

    “While we appeal to the curiosity of the public, to their capacity of amazement, reflection, complicity, and surprise, ‘Disruptions’ also necessarily implies a commitment to the unknown, a rupture of the status quo,” explain curators Diana Wechsler and Florencia Battiti.

    Further details on the artists and individual works can be found here.

    Accompanying ‘Disruptions’, Art Basel Cities: Buenos Aires will be presenting the following artist talks; all talks are free and open to the public.

    Thursday, December 5, 2019: 4pm to 5pm: Marcela Sinclair and Agustina Woodgate in conversation with Florencia Battiti and Diana Wechsler

    Friday, December 6, 2019: 2.15pm to 2.45pm: Pablo Reinoso; 4.15pm to 4.45pm: Matías Duville

    Saturday, December 7, 2019: 2.15pm to 2.45pm: Graciela Hasper; 4.15pm to 4.45pm: Marie Orensanz

  • Superfine! x Sorra present Miami’s First Midnight Vernissage

    On Wednesday, December 6, high-impact LED lighting company Soraa and locally-grown accessible contemporary art fair Superfine! are joining forces. Capped off at only 400 attendees, Miami’s art collector and art-curious community will join Superfine! and Soraa for a witching hour preview of thefair that was ranked Miami’s favorite of 2017 by the Miami New Times.

    The Midnight Vernissage will kick off with a cotton candy-topped champagne toast via the talented drink slingers of MiMo mainstay The Vagabond Hotel. Vernissage guests will take in over 1,200 original works by top emerging artistic talent from Miami and around the globe while enjoying ethereal harp sounds by Katherine Honey, the Biltmore’s longtime harpist. Whimsical interactive performance art by Veronika Rabinovich’s Dream Caverns troupe will also set the stage for an enchanting evening preview, along with surprises in the fair’s rear garden.

    Soraa’s Nobel Prize-winning LED technology will enlighten the booth of Apostrophe NYC, an iconoclastic New York art gallery that defies traditional white-box paradigms by working personally with their “Base 12” artists to present boundary-pushing exhibitions. All 12 of these artists will be showing work at Superfine! Miami and each work will be lit individually to showcase the dynamic range of Soraa’s intelligent lighting. Artist Max Hodgson of Apostrophe NYC will also create a massive abstract mural facing the fair’s rear garden. A time lapse film of the mural’s realization will be created and shared by Soraa, and the final product will be lit by the company’s museum-quality color rendering lights, flooding the verdant lounge area with vibrant color.

    The Midnight Vernissage runs from 11:30PM through 1:30 AM on Wednesday December 6th. The Soraa lounge at Superfine! will be open to the public in the rear garden of the fair at 56 NE 29th Street from Thursday December 7th through Sunday December 10th. Full fair hours and ticket information are available here.
