Art Basel Miami Beach is expecting record numbers of attendants for its 13th annual edition. Over the past decade, Art Basel Miami Beach has become one of the biggest art fairs in the world, drawing massive numbers to Miami in December. Collectors, curators, artists, gallerists, agents and art appreciators descend upon the always sunny Miami, Florida during the first week of December for every art, fashion, and cultural event. While Basel is certainly the ringleader of the seven-day fête, there are satellite fairs, museum exhibitions and gallery openings, films, concerts, collection debuts, pop-ups, parties, brunches, and more engulfing the entire city. It’s a lot to handle, we know. Check out below The Untitled Magazine‘s day-by-day guide to this year’s AB/MB. For more on Art Fairs hitting Miami Art Week, click here.
