Commissioner Artists on Art Week 2019

This year we asked ourselves, what are our commissioned artists doing for Miami Art Week? Here, a few notes from and about Commissioner Season One and Season Two artists.

Typoe

Season 1 Artist 001

Typoe’s tip for surviving the week: Pick one thing to see in the morning, one thing in the afternoon and one thing in the evening. Then go to sleep pretty early.

Check Out These Shows: 
Peter Schuyff, New Paintings at Bill Brady Gallery
Sandford Biggers at David Castillo (on view until Jan. 31) and at Art Basel Miami Beach

Attend This:
Design Miami/ Fair

Kelly Breez

Season 1 Artist 003

Kelly Breez is—in her words—a free agent for Art Basel this year. This means that instead of exhibiting, she’ll be enjoying the scene just like you.
