art basel miami

well, its been a week since i got back from art basel in miami. after a month of 14hr studio days, and a week of drinking till 4am just to get up at 10am to talk about art all day. i needed a week off. for those of you that don't know about art basel. it's the biggest art "thing" in north america. is the closest thing the fine art world has to a trade show. it's f****** great! for one week all of downtown miami, and south beach is all about art. there are more than a dozen "fairs" going over the week. art basel miami is the biggest one, and as far as the satellite fairs aqua miami is one of the higher profile ones. so, i was stoked to get a chance to show there.


i have been going down down 5 years know. it's only a 5 hour drive from gainesville to miami, and as i tell all my art friend here "its irresponsible for any artist in fla not to go to art basel!" (you guys know who you are). this was only the second time that i have got to show in miami. this time i got to show with my fellow aleatoric art artist.

what is an aleatoric artist you ask. well here is our mission statement:

MAMA is the Movement of Aleatoric Modern Artists,
the 21st century answer to the early 1900's art
movement known as DADA. Discover a new breed
of contemporary artists and learn about the early
practitioners of the "chance" theory. Employed
throughout history to create unique and compelling
works by artists you know and love, the aleatoric
methods are making a resurgence thanks to the
modern techniques used by a handful of rising stars
who emulate these great artists of the past. Our aim
is to bring together the best of these new aleatoric
artists from around the world and promote the
exchange of ideas, techniques and philosophies
about art and artists in the 21st Century. This page
will inform artists and art lovers of all that is
happening on the international scene with our
featured artists on AleatoricArt.com. Gallery
exhibitions, artist receptions and news and reviews
about ongoing shows will be updated often on this
unique site showcasing the best modern artists from
around the globe.

check out the website. there is a beautiful book as well.
