Dive into contemporary art during February’s Art Wynwood
Miami is a dynamic destination for art anytime of year with a slew of contemporary art galleries, state-of-the-art museums and the mural-splashed Wynwood Arts District. When Art Basel wraps up in December, Miami’s not done with cutting edge contemporary art fairs. Art Wynwood was established in February 2012 over President’s Day weekend by the same team that produces Art Miami during Miami Art Week.
Art Wynwood will be held from February 13-17, 2020 at One Herald Plaza overlooking Biscayne Bay in Downtown Miami in collaboration with the Miami Yacht Show whose boats will be docked in the adjacent marina over President’s Day weekend for a dynamic atmosphere for patrons of the arts and the great outdoors.
Art Wynwood’s curatorial focus is on emerging contemporary talent, mid-career artists and blue chip post-war modern masters. The fair routinely draws over 25,000 patrons during the long weekend and showcases the works of over 180 artists from 60 international galleries including Germany, Chile, Russia, France and the United Kingdom. Miami galleries represented at Art Wynwood include Avant Gallery and European Design & Art. Patrons routinely admire and acquire important work by artists like Banksy, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Alexander Calder, Marc Chagall, Ed Ruscha, Andy Warhol and Ai Weiwei.
The weekend comes with a slew of brunches and cocktail receptions in the VIP lounge, as well as private tours of the fair arranged for museum groups and professionals.
A VIP opening reception will be held on Thursday, February 13 to give patrons the first chance at acquiring new works on display, benefitting ICA, Miami museum in the Design District. The fair is open to the public Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Monday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Whether you’re a budding art enthusiast or a serious collector, Art Wynwood has something for everyone and proves to be a highlight of the art fair season in Miami. It’s made even more enjoyable with the Miami Yacht Show right outside on the docks of beautiful Biscayne Bay.
