Building on three highly successful years in Miami Beach,
Bridge is pleased to announce our inaugural Bridge Miami
Wynwood, offering collectors, art professionals and visitors a
boutique-style fair easily accessible in the heart of Midtown
Miami. Bridge Art Fair Wynwood marks a significant expansion
of Bridge's presence at the global art fair market that
converges in Miami every December.
Bridge Miami Wynwood
features the best in international emerging art, presented in
a modular, museum grade exhibition space, built on a 60,000
square foot development in Miami Midtown at NE 1st Avenue and
NW 34th Street, immediately adjacent to Art Miami, Photo Miami
and AIPAD, and centrally located between Scope, Pulse and
Aqua. In addition to a spectacular booth fair, Bridge Miami
Wynwood will also showcase an outdoor sculpture project.
Located just off the Julia Tuttle Causeway, Bridge Wynwood
will greet visitors crossing the bridge from South Beach at
the entryway to Midtown Miami's art fair circuit and through
to the Design District.
While Bridge Miami Wynwood is
invitation-only, interested galleries are encouraged to
inquire.

Bridge Wynwood is presented concurrently with Bridge
Miami Beach, taking place for the third year at the Catalina
and Maxine Hotels on Collins Avenue. Bridge Miami Beach enjoys
a two-block proximity to Art Basel at the Miami convention
center, and welcomes thousands of attendees each day. After
two years as a top satellite destination on Miami Beach, with
sales in excess of ten million dollars, Bridge Miami Beach is
a top seller and destination in its own right. Convenient
champagne shuttles will run between the Bridge Fair locations
12pm-10pm daily.
Arguably the largest convergence of
contemporary art and design takes place during Art Basel Miami
in this annual, star-studded, citywide celebration of new art
internationalism. Consistently a muscular destination market,
Miami shows absolutely no signs of stopping. Despite a
perceptible softening elsewhere in the American art
marketplace, Miami continues to astound as far and beyond the
top-performing art fair circuit in the United
States.

About Bridge Art Fair
The goal
of Bridge Art Fair, the independent international exposition
of new art, is to broaden the exposure of emerging and
contemporary art and artists by providing a showcase for the
best from both established and up-and-coming galleries, artist
collectives, and artist-run spaces. Connecting the global art
community, Bridge Art Fair has a deep commitment to
contemporary work in all media, including but not limited to
painting, prints, photography, sculpture, installation,
drawing, film, video, new media, and conceptual art. Never
cookie cutter, each edition of Bridge Art Fair also spotlights
a different international focus. The Bridge Focus section of
each fair is defined both by geography and culture, providing
each show with its own distinctive curatorial premise.
