Art Basel Miami Beach was quite an experience again this year. Everyone in the business of art is here this week, and we saw galleries having great success from the first preview day and with each evening switch-out – some back rooms were nearly empty by Friday. Promised gifts were made, collectors were connected to great work, all at the year’s largest art fair. We were thrilled with our excellent finds and to connect with our colleagues.

Enjoy some of our favorites to follow.

Pace’s presentation of work was by Louise Nevelson was jaw dropping. This wall piece from 1964 was one of many great works brought and featured.

Paul Kasmin brought a great new drum sculpture by Ivan Navarro, Nothing Will Come of Nothing, 2015, Neon, LED Lights, aluminum, wood, paint, mirror, one-way mirror and electric energy, Edition 1 of 3 (from Ed of 3 + 1 AP). We appreciated the raised installation and plan to install ours the same.
