NY Times - Article about Art in Miami

"Since Art Basel Miami Beach touched down on this city’s palm and condo strewn shores six years ago, a contemporary art wave has swept across Miami like a tropical storm. Art is everywhere, from the walls of boutique hotels where works by young art stars have replaced the stark minimalism of the 1990s." This is one of the statements in Julia Chaplin's article about the Miami art scene, published: February 3, 2008, in the Travel section of the New York Times.

The article is very good and talks about the growth and importance of art in Miami. Art Basel Miami Beach is briefly discussed as well as its affect on Miami. It covers what’s going on in the Wynwood Art District, mentions several of the big private collections, art galleries and museums. I'm not going to recap the article but wanted to bring it to your attention.

In Miami, the Beach Party Moves Indoors

I highly recommend that you read the article.
