SPECIAL PROJECTS AND DISTINCTIVE EXHIBITIONS COMMEMORATING ART MIAMI'S 25TH EDITION
Art Miami ( www.art-miami.com), the city's original and longest running contemporary and modern art fair, celebrates its 25th anniversary, together with its adjacent sister fair CONTEXT( www.contextartmiami.com), presenting an array of dynamic projects and exhibitions as the anchor event of Art Week in Miami. Established collectors, members of the press, curators, museum professionals and art world luminaries have first access to view and acquire important works during the VIP Private Preview Tomorrow, December 2, which benefits the PĂ©rez Art Museum Miami and Miami Light Project. The event also displays a luxurious collection of the latest automotive designs from Maserati. Both fairs open to the public Wednesday, December 3 through Sunday, December 7, during which Christie's International Real Estate hosts an interactive booth at the entrance of Art Miami, exhibiting international luxury residential real estate offerings. With a combined exhibition space covering three city blocks and totaling 250,000 square feet, Art Miami and CONTEXT have grown to include a roster of more than 200 galleries, showcasing 1,875 artists from 60 countriesaround the globe.

"The special programming, exhibitions and installations at Art Miami are world-class,and we're confident attendees will notice and enjoy each fairs' growth and progressive direction this year."
