how much art can you take?

so i've returned from art basel miami with no money, lots of blisters and about 500 pictures! we went to 6 fairs {art basel, it ain't, pulse, nada, pool and aqua} and so, so many galleries/shows/openings. we saw gang gang dance play at a recreation of max fish and kid sister play poolside at a swanky hotel. i ate some pretty good food {where are all the fancy vegetarian restaurants?!} and stepped into the ocean. mostly i looked at art and thought about art and looked at art and wrote down notes about art and looked at art and talked about art and looked at a lot of art.

  1. We went to all the same spots!
    Great selection of shots.

    I'm so physically and mentally exhausted. My eyeballs received so much art they want to explode. :D
    Glad you had a great time.

  2. awesome! i wonder if we crossed paths...

    it was really draining - both all of the walking and the processing really took it out of me. my friends headed to scope {after pulse and aqua} and i just.couldn't.do.it. i went to a thrift store and sat on a couch an read for an hour. it was nice.

    i think that i would go back again. it was a great experience.

  6. You must do it again.
    The first year it's a bit overwhelming... By next time you'll be calloused in a good way.


    I heard a rumor that after the 2011 contract ends it might head over to LA. I hope we keep it. Miami is still rough around the edges and hungry for culture.

    ps- yes, after seeing 60k- 2mm dollar works-- cute & affordable etsy prints are so so yummy.
