Twenty Columbia Artists Exhibiting Work at Art Basel in Miami Beach
Twenty Columbia visual artists, including two faculty members and nineteen alumni, will exhibit work at the 2019 Art Basel and other associated art fairs in Miami during the first week of December.
Founded in 1970, the prestigious international art fair showcases work from around the globe with the aim to connect artists, galleries, and collectors.
This year, over the course of five days, over 200 of the world’s leading art galleries will “display artworks by over 4,000 artists, including paintings, sculptures, installations, photography, film, video, and digital art,” according to the Art Basel website.
Following the American showcase in Miami Beach, which runs from December 4 through December 9, 2019, Art Basel will move on to its annual shows in Hong Kong and Switzerland in 2020.
Highlights from this year include alumna Allison Janae Hamilton '17, who is showing her sculpture, Fencing mask with alabaster grapes, and speaking on the panel Confronting Climate Change Denial, which is part of Art Basel’s Conversations program.
Returning Art Basel exhibitors include Derrick Adams '03, Aki Sasamoto '07, Natalie Frank '06, and Allison Katz '08.
Both adjunct assistant professor Esteban Cabeza de Baca '14 and Katz are exhibiting multiple works at Art Basel this year, with Cabeza de Baca working in painting and sculpture and Katz working in painting.
Several other Columbia artists are exhibiting work at various fairs associated with Art Basel taking place during the same week in Miami Beach.
