Daily Candy- Basel
Thursday
Looking to buy? Nonprofit Bakehouse Art Complex gathers more than 70 working artists in 33,000 square feet. Get some air at World Gardens, an interactive installation by landscape architect Harry Nelson at Midtown’s Art Park (36th Street, at Midtown Boulevard). At night, bribe your way into Art Asia’s private soiree at architect Chad Oppenheim’s house (complete with a first look at Yi Zhou’s film The Ear, starring Pharrell Williams).
photo miami!Friday
The Design District is known for its art studios, but all you see are throw pillows. Take a guided tour of resident artists’ work spaces at 10:30 a.m., starting at Locust Projects. A few blocks north, infamous photographer David LaChapelle displays new works at Wolfgang Roth & Partners Fine Art gallery. For celeb sightings: Beg an invite to the private Photo Miami fundraiser (hosted by Usher) at Viceroy. At 10:30 p.m., NY transplant Fountain Art Fair boasts a live show by G.Love (no word on the Special Sauce). And at 11 p.m., W South Beach hosts We Rock the Arts, a poolside bash with performances by Glen Matlock (Sex Pistols) and Jesse Yusef Murphy (Brazilian Girls).
Saturday
the box!See Scope’s newest addition, Covent Garden, a marketplace with fashion, goods (books, records), and projects (tattoo design by local talent Santiago Rubino), curated by Miami’s own Karelle Levy. Stop by The Webster for a first look at artist Jeff Koons’s line of watches for Ikepod. Get tipsy and hit The Box. NYC’s risque burlesque show migrates to Nikki Beach with aerialist acrobats and anatomically, um, innovative acts.
botanic garden!Sunday
Nurse that hangover with fresh air at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, where you can see avant-garde artist Yayoi Kusama’s garden exhibit. Conclude your Basel frazzle at an alternative fair like O.H.W.O.W.’s It Ain’t Fair, an offbeat display of 30 international artists.
Burgeoning ecosensitive aesthetic? Check.

It's that time of year again, yelpers! And no, we're not just talkin' the holidays. Art Basel Miami Beach's eighth year is finally upon us, so get ready for an artistically-fueled, deliciously-odd rest of the week. Go ahead, call in sick to work, grab your most colorful outfit, and read through this Weekly as we paint you a pretty picture of the days ahead.
Treasured local museums will be dishing out an optical feast in the form of new exhibitions. Whitney R gets her fix of sweet, sweet eye candy at Miami Art Museum, a veritable institution for "innovative and contemporary art." And during Basel, be sure to catch MAM's unveiling of Shepard Fairey's new outdoor public art project! Meanwhile, Elizabeth P is "blown away" by Bass' "thought-provoking and unique" artwork, and you will be too – especially now, since Dzine has decked its halls with a blinged-out mix of street art and Chicano lowrider bike culture. Talk about hot wheels!
Joseluis A and other lovers of emerging visual work will be thrilled to know that Gen Art's Vanguard is setting up shop this year inside Aqua Art Miami in Wynwood for a booth-style fair concurrent with Basel. This is, of course, a very welcome addition to the art warehouse district that already boasts the Margulies Collection, Rubell Family Collection, and Bakehouse Art Complex – all of which will be flaunting their best! BAC will host bac:23 complete with a daily comped breakfast (so much for starving artists), and while you're in the 'wood, peek into Miami Art Space to see Satellite Art + Design's out-of-this-world show.
After taking in the magnificent mélange of fairs including Design Miami, Scope, and Pulse, prepare to party. Paula E admits she's "addicted to the Vagabond... it never gets old!" Be sure to pop in post-Basel to find "adventure lurking around every corner of this club." At the Viceroy, Talisha M feels as if she is in a whimsical "Alice in Wonderland dream," doubly delightful now that Art Viceroy has popped up! And lastly, a little birdie named Adriana D told us on Talk that she's really looking forward to the annual F*CK Art, Let's Dance party at the Electric Pickle. Shake it, yelpers – it's Basel time!

"I find it quite sad that I was a UM student for 2 whole years and I never once made it to the LAM, because it's beautiful!
