First view — Art Basel Miami Beach, Miami Beach, Florida

Dec 1970 · Miami Beach, Florida

Art Basel Miami Beach.

The Americas' most significant art fair, and the week the entire market moves to Florida. What matters happens before the doors open publicly — by the Thursday, the serious work is sold.

What we can put you in

  • First Choice and Preview passes for the Tuesday and Wednesday
  • Private viewings at galleries ahead of the fair proper
  • Advisory and acquisition, with independent condition and provenance checks
  • The satellite fairs and the collections that open privately across the week

Around it

Understand

The first two days

Preview access is the difference between buying and browsing. Anything of real consequence has a red dot beside it long before the public days.

Eat

Joe's Stone Crab

On South Beach since 1913 and unmoved by anything that has happened around it since. Stone crab, hash browns, key lime pie. No reservations, which is a solvable problem.

Explore

The Rubell Museum

In Allapattah. A private collection shown properly, and a far better hour than the fifth satellite fair of the week.

Dates, tiers and price come back together, and only once the route is confirmed. Nothing here is held until you ask for it.
