Art Basel Miami 2024

Miami Beach Convention Center
December 4 – 8, 2024

Next week is the art world’s last hurrah of the calendar year – Art Basel Miami. The coastal city plays host to an array of spin-offs and satellites at private venues and public institutions, and then of course there’s the main fair.

On our must-see list is the fair’s Meridians sector at the fair, the platform for large-scale projects, curated this year by Yasmil Raymond. This year’s line-up includes conceptual artist Sarah Meyohas’s Interference #18—a monumental, fourteen-feet wide multipanel hologram from the artist’s ongoing Interference series—presented by Marianne Boesky Gallery. Meyohas layers magnified imagery of plant matter with images of a nude female form.

We’ll also be heading to Nova, the place to see new works created in the last three years or less. This always proves to be a highlight of Art Basel, and this year we don’t want to miss Deborah Willis, presented by Welancora Gallery. Across town, the Bass Museum’s ‘Social Assembly: Welcome to the Museum’, is an innovative visitor experience and a celebration of the city, and at the Margulies Collection at the Warehouse, you can see works by Roy Lichtenstein, Louise Nevelson and Isamu Noguchi, among others, in Historic Works from the Margulies Collection 1930’s-1970’s. Round out the weekend with a visit to the Perez Museum for a groundbreaking exhibition surveying six decades of Xicanx-identifying artists.

POSTPARTUM Garden

Park Modern
14th – 17th November, 2024

Amsterdam’s Homecoming gallery comes to London this week for a short and very special showcase of works by Aldo van den Broek and Johnny Mae Hauser at Park Modern, Hyde Park, curated by Brandei Estes and hosted by Lola Bute.

The exhibition brings together the real life partners work reflected parallel, distinct perspectives on the artists’ first summer living and working together as family. Van den Broek’s Postpartum Garden reflects themes of growth and decay, and the fragility of new life, in works rife with symbolism and suggestion. Where he sees resilience in early motherhood, Hauser finds tension between the self and other, where identity is blurred and remoulded.

A poetic and poignant duo solo show by two fascinating artists, Postpartum Garden is a rare chance to see how the monumental moment of becoming parents affects each partner, side by side, sometimes surprisingly opposed and at others in seamless reciprocity. It’s a candid look at self-discovery and how the dynamics of family shape artistic vision. The exhibition opens today and runs until Sunday – curator Brandei Estes will be in conversation with the artists on 15 Friday.

Artlogic Conference Connect 24

Online
19th – 21st November, 2024

Connect 24 is Artlogic’s online conference bringing together those who create, sell and buy art through conversations and panels exploring everything from shifts in the market to the dynamics between artists and galleries. Informative and educational, Connect 24 is a unique opportunity to think about the art market and how it will be impacted by wider changes in the world.

Artlogic expects more than 10,000 of its community to attend the conference, including leading collectors, galleries, advisors, curators from around the world – as well as artists working in every medium. Our very own founder Katy Wickremesinghe is also part of the stellar line-up alongside the likes of Jasmin Tsou, Lisson Gallery’s New York Director, Gazelli Art House founder Mila Askarova, as well as Paul Smith Foundation director Martha Mosse and curator Jenn Ellis, to name a few.

Katy Wickremesinghe will moderate a panel titled Brave New Art World: Building Community and Narratives in a Digital Age, alongside Curator & Author Ekow Eshun, CEO of The Art Newspaper Nick Sargent, and Curator & Founder of @Carriescottcurates Carrie Scott.

Among the exciting discussions to sign up for is a panel discussion on the challenges facing the art market in 2025, in the wake of the US elections, and how to approach the sustainability in a globalised art scene. Also hot topics to be dissected are how to build better relationships between galleries and museums, and how collectors today are navigating the market on their own terms.
