Visual Art Miami!

Posted by on Thu, Dec 4, 2008 at 12:02 PM

Stranger photographer Andy Pixel is down at Art Basel Miami Beach this week and he's sending us images. Here's the first batch of eye candy from the capital of eye candy.

The opening of Aqua Art Miami, the hotel fair run by Seattleites Dirk Park and Jaq Chartier.

From the SOIL opening at Aqua, Seattle artist Randy Wood.

The opening of Art Basel Positions—20 shipping containers full of art, installed on the beach. Jose Davila's installation, put on by Renwick Gallery out of NYC, was the only piece in Positions not in an actual shipping container.

This one's from an installation by Raúl deNieves, a Mexican artist living in San Diego, represented by the NYC gallery Newman Popiashvili. Lots of bedazzled high-heeled shoes, chandeliers, and baubles. The piece below was made with candy sprinkles.

Martha Friedman's rubber band installation was operated by NYC gallery Wallspace. Each pair of oversized rubber bands (and that's exactly what they were) were for sale individually.

Wow Cinnamon Society Blues, aren't you the arrogant gear-head! Yes, I know, you probably got over your wide-angle lens YEARS ago, so anybody using them now must be as stupid as you were back when you were using them, right?
