Miami welcomes 267 galleries from 32 countries each December and the international art world turns the city into a week full of exhibits, events, and parties. Frampton Co attended Art Basel at the convention center as well as many other fairs from Miami to tents on South Beach. We toured the first two days with our client and were particularly successful at the Untitled and Art Miami shows, purchasing abstract expressionist paintings for a Southampton property. Drawing sets and site photos in hand, we sourced large-scale photography for Tribeca and Flatiron projects the next couple of days. We were very inspired by some of the Berlin-based galleries, offering diverse and surprising works with a fresh perspective. In between our project planning and purchasing, we strolled the design district and visited shops, brimming with bright colors and sculptural facades. A detour to the Perez Art Museum on the way to the airport was a perfect way to end our Miami Art Basel week.
