Satellite fairs bring art beyond Art Basel

Satellite fairs on both sides of the causeways are big draws in their own right.

By Tere Figueras Negrete 

Art Week isn’t all about Art Basel.

While the main festival’s labyrinthine stretches of exhibits may be a universe unto itself, savvy art lovers know that the city beyond the convention center is teeming with possibilities and promise.

Neighborhoods on both sides of the causeway glitter this week with a constellation of satellite events, from intimate fairs with tightly curated rosters of local artists to the massive twin offering of Art Miami/CONTEXT that has emerged as an anchor event in its own right.

Complete schedule of satellite fairs below. Click here for the rest of this story.
