ART BASEL TAKES MIAMI, 2014: Our Guide

 

Holding Miami's Art Basel in December is truly a gift for us New Yorkers. It's painfully chilly up here and any excuse to travel south to sunny South Beach is A-OK in our book. 
Art's creativity continues to fascinate us and we're intrigued by the elements, pop culture and current events that inspire artists and designers. It's basically one long, eye-opening weekend, plus the ocean and warm winds certainly don't hurt.
Th culture of this city is lively and hypnotic.  Dive in.
