Art and design lovers everywhere are journeying to Miami where, from December 4 to 10, Art Basel Miami Beach and Design Miami/ will open their doors to collectors, curators and enthusiasts alike. The two events — together with a packed program of public art, offsite installations, exhibitions, workshops, talks and creative programming — form Miami Art Week 2023, which takes over the coastal city in full Floridian fashion. Stay tuned as we bring you the latest must-see exhibitions and events during Miami Art Week, and discover designboom’s definitive guide of recommendations. Hot on the heels of its Paris debut, Design Miami 2023 (December 6-10) is set to feature more than 40 galleries and exhibitions with museum-quality collectibles covering 20th and 21st century furniture, lighting and objects. Around the corner from R & Company's vast offering—where an 8-foot-square glazed foam throne by Hun Chung Lee sits beneath illuminated sculptures by Jeff Zimmerman—awaits Roberto Lugo's Village Potter pop-up. The installation is a physical manifestation of Lugo's digital platform, and an anchor of the fair that ties curation with commerce.

The first of what the company says will be a yearly event will "join together with the Art Basel team, the leadership team from Surfrider, gallerists, Miami locals, city officials and art enthusiasts from around the world for this inaugural local cleanup effort". Called Pink Meditation Buoy, it will feature a series of pink forms planted in the ocean and visible from the shore of Faena Beach. Digital artist Andrés Reisinger will showcase a collaboration with art foundation Reefline during Miami Art Week. Artist Pilar Zeta has created a sculpture in the garden of the hotel W South Beach featuring a portal and a series of steps that lead to a large sphere and pyramid.

Every time you passed it, there seemed to be a new person posing in front of the building in a matching pink ensemble. Miami-based materials company Grupo Arca will showcase works by Polish artist Alicja Kwade and American designer Kelly Wearstler at its showroom in Miami. Tequila company Casa Dragones has outfitted a tasting room in the Collectors Lounge of Art Basel. Mexican City-based architecture studio Tatiana Bilbao Estudio lead the design of the space, where visitors can sample the tequila. With Design Miami and Art Basel Miami Beach set to begin next week, we've rounded up a series of must-see installations and events, from a tequila tasting room designed by Tatiana Bilbao to a Virgil Abloh exhibition put on by Nike. A gelatinous landscape greets visitors who venture into the Friedman Benda installation—and that is no figure of speech.
Collaborating with artists Hannah Yan, Jen Stark, Kaoru Tanaka, and Robert Hodgin, the project draws inspiration from Shiseido’s fusion of art, science, and key elements in the Future Solution LX line. The collection, emphasizing refinement and modernity, showcases the brand’s commitment to beauty industry innovation. Andrés Reisinger’s “Take Over” was another architectural intervention that felt as high impact offline as it looked online. Adapted from Reisinger’s series of digital renderings that depict buildings wrapped in pink curtains, the piece’s construction was simple and yet the outcome created an instant Design District landmark — which is no easy feat in a neighbourhood filled with designer flagships.

Lukas Gschwandtner can hardly contain his excitement as he walks through his own eye-catching Fendi presentation. Unlike the obviously dazzling seating arrangements on view elsewhere at the fair, those in the Vienna-based artist’s booth must be explained. Inspired by the postures in ancient Roman fresco portraits, with their muses sprawled across decadent thrones, Gschwandtner dreamt up a triclinium—that is, a Roman-style dining room of chaise longues— accessorized with the deconstructed materials of a Fendi Peekaboo handbag. The installation, aptly titled Triclinium, is completed with a video, in which the artist explains how to “wear” each piece.

Design Miami announces global rebrand and shares preview highlights for inaugural Los Angeles fair in May
The stand of Wexler Gallery features the work of Jomo Tariku, an Ethiopian American artist who says he likes to take new shapes and apply them to design in order to challenge himself to create good-looking pieces of furniture. The Meedo series explores the symbolism of the combs and Black beauty standards, with works priced at $32,000 to $95,000. Highlighted is the idea of shelter and safety as integral to cultural production and collective creation.

London-based Carpenters Workshop Gallery’s stand features a concrete chair with a large, pink metal tree growing from the base of the seat, complete with lights installed within the tree’s geometric branches. The imposing manmade rendering of a natural form was created by the designer Nacho Carbonell, who in 2009 was named a Designer of the Future at Design Miami Basel in Switzerland. During Miami Art Week 2023, Japanese skincare trailblazer Shiseido introduces Future Reflections, its inaugural generative art collection.

Known for her oozing and multicolored artworks, Dan Lam will be unveiling a massive sculpture at Wynwood Walls, one of the best venues in Miami to see leading street artists. Titled ‘A Subtle Alchemy,’ the sculpture stands over 8.5 feet tall to mark one of Dan’s largest pieces to date. It is crafted from metal, styrofoam, and epoxy, and is the first of the artist’s pieces to be painted with automotive paint and finished with a chameleon pigment — a finish which lends the dripping forms their shifting, iridescent hues.
Digital gallery and collaboration studio TRAME debuts RIFLESSI, an exhibition which displays the works of two artists — ‘Optimism’ by Jeff Davis and ‘Portraits’ by Martin Grasser. Both artists are known for their algorithmic studies of color, and will unveil selected pieces from their upcoming collections in collaboration with TRAME. Davis, with over a decade of experience in algorithmic generative art — collaborated with TRAME, Atelier Loire, and Neal Feay to bring this work to life. With ‘Portraits,’ Martin Grasser converges his experience with generative algorithms to create mirrors. Collaborating with TRAME, he leverages the quality of Venetian mirrored glass to create a visual language, where words and phrases become new abstract forms.
Breez transports visitors to the nostalgic world of old South Florida dive bars, crafting an alternate universe filled with life-sized cut-out figures, sculptures, and drawings that capture the essence of this vanishing era. Kemahlioglu’s latter series is a harmonious blend of past and present, highlighting ancestral Murrine hand-blown glass techniques and native Meerschaum clay minerals in colorful pendant lighting forms. The inspiration for this collection draws from the concept of a charm necklace, where each charm is thoughtfully chosen for its sentimental significance.
This year’s event is no different; it takes place in Pride Park, opposite the Miami Beach Convention Centre and focuses on the theme, Where We Stand, a celebration of design inspired by place, community and heritage. Alongside the exhibitions are a series of cultural programmes including thought-provoking design talks and panel discussions which provide a context for much of the work on display. In addition to the physical event, you can view this year’s exhibits at Design Miami/’s online shop. There, you’ll get digital access to the fair and its exhibitors in real time, featuring curated, fully immersive 3D tours of the live fair using cutting-edge Matterport technology. This is the first time the Italian fashion house is partnering with Design Miami, and it comes on the back of the colourful Bottega Veneta S/S 2023 show set in Milan, which creative director Matthieu Blazy appointed design pioneer Gaetano Pesce to realise. There’s a chance to purchase these bold and candy-coloured chairs both at the fair and at the brand’s Design District store.
Design Miami/ 2023 is a leading global forum for design, bringing together the most influential collectors, gallerists, designers, curators, and critics from around the world. The fair showcases the best in collectible design, from 20th and 21st century masters to cutting-edge emerging designers. A diverse range of galleries and designers from over thirty countries will be on view, presenting a wide variety of collectible design objects, including furniture, lighting, and jewelry. The curatorial theme of Design Miami/ 2023 is ‘Design and the Environment.’ The fair will explore the ways in which designers are responding to the challenges and opportunities of the climate crisis, and how design can help us to create a more sustainable future.
