The setting was a mildly humid, yet still refreshing post rain affected Miami Art District. With eager eyed faces wandering to and fro rotating from phone to camera to friend to art and back to camera, a low resonating jibber jabber filled the air, but the excitement was intense nonetheless. All in appreciation and love of creativity and art in general. Art Basel 2009.
Being a ripe, new resident of south Florida and a lover and admirer of art in general, I knew this was an occasion I could not pass up. It was my first time experiencing such a profoundly appreciated festival such as this, and I definitely left fulfilled and inspired to the max. Some of the most talented and infamous artists from all over the world had their pieces in many of Miami's finer galleries. Feeding from and being inspired by fellow creators is a huge part of any artistic process. If you attended Art Basel and didn't experience the waves of creativity smacking you in the face, please check yourself into the nearest health facility right away. Your imagination is a powerful tool, which much of the time, need not be harnessed at all.
The Wynnwood Walls being the highlight of the event for myself, left me somewhat in awe of the beauty but more importantly the creative vision of such amazing artists. Check below for a few pics I was able to capture at the event.
