Art Basel Miami and Design Miami, 2012

Mark your calendars because Art Basel Miami and Design Miami are around the corner. Design Miami is growing quickly with a 25% increase in galleries exhibiting since last year. Both emerging and iconic design work from all over the world will be exhibited, but there will be a greater focus on American Design this year. The event will take place in Miami, Florida, December 5-9, 2012.

In addition to the first-time participation of Chicago-based Volume Gallery and Philadelphia-based Moderne Gallery, exhibitor Mark McDonald from Hudson will mount an homage to the Eames House, while R 20th Century will show works by Wendell Castle, the pioneer of the American studio furniture movement, and Carpenters Workshop Gallery presents lighting by Johanna Grawunder. Just a taste shown below!
