MIAMI. The ninth edition of Art Basel Miami Beach closed on Sunday, December 5, 2010. More than 250 galleries from North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa exhibited works by over 2,000 artists. The show attracted 46,000 visitors, a record number. Art collectors, museum directors, curators and cultural journalists from all over the world enjoyed a program of special exhibitions, panel discussions, private collection tours, and events featuring film, performance, and video. A great number of artists also attended the event,
among them Michelangelo Pistoletto, Ernesto Neto, Vik Muniz, Pedro Reyes, Jonathan Meese, Martin Creed, Tony Oursler, Teresita Fernandez, Thomas Zipp, Julie Mehretu, Ugo Rondinone, Mark Handforth, Julian Schnabel and Isaac Julien.
Over 130 museum and institution groups visited the show, as did private collectors from the Americas, Europe and many emerging markets of the artworld.
Art Basel Miami Beach proved again that high-quality works remain in strong demand, as collectors rewarded excellent material and booth presentations with steady sales throughout the week: Many exhibitors also reported making valuable new contacts, especially in Latin America. Gallerists offered gleaming reports, including:
Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers, Sprüth Magers Berlin London
'We are very impressed with the quality of international collectors at this year's fair and have really enjoyed participating.'
Marc Glimcher, Pace Gallery, New York
"This year in Miami was, without a doubt, for the overall quality of the art and the energy, one of the best art fairs I have been to and it certainly was for Pace: we practically sold out
works in our booth within hours of the opening."
Gordon VeneKlasen, Michael Werner Gallery
'We're really happy with our participation in Miami Basel. Major collectors came this year with a strong showing of our clients from all over the world. Sales of our established artists
were terrific and the fair also provides a great platform for our younger generation of artists - Aaron Curry, Enrico David and Thomas Houseago. With great support from local collectors such as the De la Cruz's and the Rubells, the fair has matured into the major art event it intended to be.'
Thomas Dane, Thomas Dane Gallery London
'We are very pleased with how the fair has gone. We had a strong opening day and good consistency throughout the rest of the fair. We have met numerous new clients and are
happy to see older clients returning to Miami.'
Alexandre Gabriel, Galeria Fortes Vilaca, Sao Paulo
'We did very good business. The Brazilians did a great part of the collecting at the fair.'
Glenn Scott Wright, Director, Victoria Miro, London
'Art Basel Miami Beach has been a great catalyst for sales of works by Yayoi Kusama, who has impending museum retrospectives in 2011 and 2012.'
Joanna Kamm, Galerie Kamm, Berlin
'This year’s ABMB was very alive in the sense of meeting new people and having talks more in depth. Also I feel a return of interest to discover young European artists. Both curators and collectors have shown an amazing interest in the work of Kathrin Sonntag, one of my very young Berlin-based artist, who I have shown for the first time at Art Basel Miami Beach.'
This year’s Art Kabinett sector was of high quality and showed an interesting mix of twenty-one carefully curated exhibitions in the booths of the galleries. The projects in this sector of the show featured a wide array of artists, ranging from emerging artists such as Valentin Carron (303 Gallery, New York), Nathan Hylden (Johann König, Berlin) and Markus Schinwald (Lambert, New York) to historical figures like Otto Muehl (Krinzinger, Wien), Franz Erhard Walter (Wolff, Paris) and Richard Diebenkorn (Greenberg van Doren, New York). Group shows include the exhibitions 'Marx & Modernism: The New Europe' (Adler & Conkright, New York) and 'Zaha Hadid and Suprematism' (Gmurzynska, Zürich).
In this year’s Art Nova sector, 50 emerging and established galleries from 17 countries presented new works by either two or three artists, including Charles Atlas, Miroslaw Balka, Thomas Bayrle, Luis Camnitzer, Mircea Cantor, Nathalie Djurberg, Gardar Eide Einarsson, Valie Export, Scott Lyall, Barry McGee, Marilyn Minter, R.H. Quaytman, Sudarshan Shetty, Roman Signer and Thomas Zipp. In all, recent pieces by 131 artists were on display, providing visitors an opportunity to see pieces fresh from studios around the globe - and making the sector an ideal place to spot the newest artistic tendencies.
The new criteria for Art Positions created a platform for a single major project from one artist, allowing curators, critics and collectors to discover ambitious new talents. The Art Positions sector presented 14 young galleries from seven different countries, showcasing cutting-edge single projects by the artists Hany Armanious (Foxy Production, New York), Jorge Méndez Blake (Meessen De Clercq, Bruxelles), Brian Bress (Cherry and Martin, Los Angeles), François Bucher (Proyectos Monclova, México), Dario Escobar (Josée Bienvenu Gallery, New York), Fernanda Fragateiro (Arratia, Beer, Berlin), Nikolas Gambaroff (Balice Hertling, Paris), Eddie Martinez (ZieherSmith, New York), Gabriel Sierra (Casas Riegner Gallery, Bogotá), Kara Tanaka (Simon Preston Gallery, New York), Johanna Unzuetta (Christinger De Mayo, Zürich), Phil Wagner (UNTITLED, New York), Judi Werthein (Figge von Rosen Galerie, Köln) and Héctor Zamora (Labor, México).
Art Public, curated for the second time by Patrick Charpenel of Guadalajara, Mexico, featured projects by international artists Andrea Bowers, François Bucher, John Chamberlain, Carlos Cruz-Diez, Minerva Cuevas, Runa Islam, Marco Maggi, Jorge Méndez Blake, and Fyodor Pavlov Andreevich. The projects which attracted many visitors were installed in the outdoor public spaces of Miami Beach, within close proximity to the Oceanfront and the Miami Beach Convention Center.
Art Basel Miami Beach's public nightly program at the Oceanfront, organized by Creative Time, was a highlight of this year's show. Sited in an environment designed by Phu Hoang Office and Rachely Rotem Studio, the pavilion used two types of rope - reflective and phosphorescent – to create a diverse and interactive environment of open-air structures that sway and glow in the night. The Oceanfront Nights program featured four cities at the forefront of today’s artistic experimentation and cross-disciplinary collaboration: Detroit, Mexico City, Berlin, and Glasgow. Art Basel Miami Beach and Creative Time invited four organizations to partner in creating the program - the Museum of Contemporary Art in Detroit, Museo Tamayo in Mexico City, 032c in Berlin, and Tramway in Glasgow. The program spotlighting film, music, video, performance and featured performances by artists
such as Sue Tompkins, Biba Bell, Isa Melsheimer, Aids-3d, 80*81 (Gerog Diez / Christopher Roth), Stephen Sutcliff and live music by Martin Creed and his band, Daniel Guzman's band Pellejos, Mexico's El Resplandor as well as sets by acclaimed DJs from the respective cities. Presentations and discussions were held by various artists including Pedro Reyes, Claudia Fernandez, Raul Cardenas / Torolab, and Jorge Mendez Blake.
This year’s Art Film event offered the award-winning film 'Waste Land,' which follows renowned artist Vik Muniz as he journeys from his home base in Brooklyn to his native Brazil and the world's largest garbage dump, Jardim Gramacho, located on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. There he collaborated an eclectic band of 'catadores' - pickers of recyclable materials, to create a new series of works. The presentation in the Lincoln Theater, which was followed by a discussion with Vik Muniz, Dan Cameron and David Koh, was well-attended and received several standing ovations.
Many leading artworld figures appeared in the morning Art Basel Conversations, which were often standing-room only and attended by the artworld and the broader public. The premiere presented an artist talk featuring legendary artist Michelangelo Pistoletto. Topics for the following panel discussions included 'Public/Private: Museums in the Digital Age,' with Maxwell L. Anderson, Lauren Cornell and Peter Reed, 'Latin America: The Collector as Catalyst' featuring Augustin Coppel, Ella Fontanals-Cisneros and Rodrigo Moura, and 'Artistic Practice: The School Makers' with Eduardo Abaroa, Bruce High Quality Foundation, Tania Bruguera, Domingo Castillo, Piero Golia and Yoshua Ok n.
