The US edition of the art show held in Switzerland in June, Art Basel Miami Beach opens its doors tomorrow (3 – 6 December) at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Among the more than 250 participating galleries, from Japan will be hiromiyoshii, Tomio Koyama Gallery, Mizuma Art Gallery, and Taka Ishii Gallery. Ebony Bones kicks things off tonight (2 December) as this year’s performer at the fair’s annual Art Loves Music concert on the beach, in the first of a host of events including talks and exhibitions slated to take place over the next four days on site and off. The concurrent young gallerists’ SCOPE, PULSE, and NADA (New Art Dealers Alliance) satellite fairs also up the numbers of art people converging in Miami Beach from around the world.
