artASIA, Miami’s first international Asian contemporary art fair will make its debut this December from 4th-7th in the prestigious Wynwood Art District, conveniently located on the corner of NE 31st Street and Midtown Boulevard. artASIA will be steps away from veteran art fairs such as Scope, Pulse, Art Miami, Photo Miami, and Design Miami.

“It is very exciting to see an idea that started from a casual conversation amongst gallerists two years ago fully realized,” said Ethan Cohen, director of artASIA, “To imagine that we can have a standalone art fair showcasing the best of Asian contemporary art is highly significant.”

Building on the economic success and cultural boom of Asia, artASIA brings together over 60 leading international galleries to showcase the finest examples of paintings, drawings, prints, photography, sculpture, mixed media, installations, and video from both established and emerging Asian artists. Participating exhibitors include galleries from Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe, and The Middle East, making this a truly global event.

artASIA’s unique vision will feature solo and group shows as well as exclusive collaborations with various artists in the special project space. Furthermore, the museum-quality academic programming will include a series of discussion panels lead by renowned critics, collectors, curators, and artists sponsored by Yishu Journal. In addition to our VIP opening party on December 3rd, special invitees will have the opportunity to participate in a guided tour as well as a chance to meet with leading exhibitors and members of artASIA’s executive committee. The fair will be open to press and VIPs for a special preview on Wednesday, December 3rd from 12pm-6pm, admission is free with artASIA VIP card.
