Art Basel Week 2022 Is Here! Art Basel Week 2022 Is Here!

 
It’s here at last! Art Basel Miami Beach 2022 is upon us, changing our usual exciting city into the mecca of fashionability and excess. For the newbies, this is an EXTREMELY big week in Miami taking place from December 1-3, 2022.

The world’s jet-set art collectors swarm the city with their chic taste in art, deep pockets and love of the most VIP parties jam-packed with celebs. There are plenty of headline-grabbing opportunities, record breaking sales, PR stunts from conceptual artists that can be comical or awe-inspiring.

The fair takes place the first week of December each year, with the main exhibition hall being at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Blue-chip galleries from all over the world are represented here and we expect to see many NFT’s. Over 60,000 guests took in the thought-provoking pieces before being whisked off to lavish VIP events. In addition, Art Basel is the most profitable event for bringing revenue and visitors to the City of Miami Beach and Miami. The only other occasion that comes remotely close is the new Miami Race Week, which brought $350 million to the city in 2022.

Douglas Elliman’s Feature For Art Basel Miami Beach 2022

Always embracing the city’s culture, Douglas Elliman consistently takes part in these special weeks, and this year will be no exception. The Winter 2023 issue of Elliman Magazine is filled with thoughtful projections of what to expect at the international fair. It is anticipated that the art this year will feature plenty of social and political art (as is the world around us), as well as novelty and plenty of the unexpected.

Also included in the issue is a sneak-peek at the luxe Douglas Elliman Portfolio, which consists of South Floridas’s most opulent homes available. New developments from Miami to Palm Beach are also featured, so that you may be inspired to remain in the area permanently. Some of the features include Five Park Miami Beach, which is currently under construction with expected delivery in 2025. Conveniently located along Alton Road and 5th Avenue, this development is an art installment in and of its own. Residents enjoy a brilliantly-lit covered pedestrian bridge, allowing access from the development to South of Fifth in order to enjoy the beach, staples like Joe’s Stone Crab and enjoying the sunset from the deck at Smith and Wollensky’s on South Pointe. The bridge was designed by Daniel Buren.
