so i've returned from art basel miami with no money, lots of blisters and about 500 pictures! we went to 6 fairs {art basel, it ain't, pulse, nada, pool and aqua} and so, so many galleries/shows/openings. we saw gang gang dance play at a recreation of max fish and kid sister play poolside at a swanky hotel. i ate some pretty good food {where are all the fancy vegetarian restaurants?!} and stepped into the ocean. mostly i looked at art and thought about art and looked at art and wrote down notes about art and looked at art and talked about art and looked at a lot of art.

We went to all the same spots!
ReplyDeleteGreat selection of shots.
I'm so physically and mentally exhausted. My eyeballs received so much art they want to explode. :D
Glad you had a great time.
awesome! i wonder if we crossed paths...
ReplyDeleteit was really draining - both all of the walking and the processing really took it out of me. my friends headed to scope {after pulse and aqua} and i just.couldn't.do.it. i went to a thrift store and sat on a couch an read for an hour. it was nice.
i think that i would go back again. it was a great experience.
i love so many of these! wish you included the artists...

ReplyDeleteYou must do it again.
ReplyDeleteThe first year it's a bit overwhelming... By next time you'll be calloused in a good way.
I heard a rumor that after the 2011 contract ends it might head over to LA. I hope we keep it. Miami is still rough around the edges and hungry for culture.
ps- yes, after seeing 60k- 2mm dollar works-- cute & affordable etsy prints are so so yummy.
