Art Miami 2008, the City’s prestigious, long-running contemporary art fair, takes place December 3-7th, proudly showcasing a wide variety of art from more than 100 leading national and international contemporary art galleries and prominent institutions.  

In its 19th edition, Art Miami has moved to a new location inside the emerging Midtown Miami Arts District, adjacent to the Miami Design District and Wynwood Arts District. The Fair is annually applauded for the depth and quality of its art, including a selection of special exhibitions and curatorial projects, outdoor sculptures and video installations -- all to appear within a new 100,000+-square-foot pavilion. European, Asian, American and Latin American galleries and institutions will also contribute unique curated exhibitions in the BlackRock Art Video | New Media Lounge and through additional art projects. BlackRock, the nation’s largest asset manager, is the Fair’s main sponsor and official host of the VIP lounge.  
 
The venue additionally boasts a restaurant offering delectable cuisine and beverages by Touch Catering. Ample parking will be provided through the use of a new four-story parking garage with 1,000 spots, located directly across the street from the pavilion. Convenient valet parking and shuttle bus service to the Miami Beach Convention Center available.

Through the success of years past and heightened interest in 2008, Art Miami continues to expand its reputation, attracting an ever-broader collector base and media attention worldwide. It is the “can’t-miss” event for all serious art collectors, art enthusiasts, curators and museum professionals – a fair that offers the opportunity to acquire some of the finest 20th and 21st century art and provides a closer look at some of the most distinct works at the forefront of the international contemporary art movement.
