Synopsis
A fun preview of Art Basel Miami Beach 2003 told in the form of questions such as, 'Isn't Miami a Cultural Desert' and "Is the Miami Fair just an Art Basel clone'. The darkly surreal and sexy photos by Tierney Gearon really make the piece work... "The life cycle of fairs is getting shorter - the ones that survive will be those that have a cultural impact," Keller says. "The question people will ask is: Where do I get the most extra? That's why we try to make Art Basel and Art Basel Miami Beach into a platform for artists, critics and curators. It has to be fun: a good time in a beautiful place with interesting people. Because pleasure is an important thing in the art world."
