Art Basel will be celebrating its 20th anniversary during its 2022 fair, slated to run December 1–3, with preview days on November 29–30 at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Bigger and better than before, the most significant art fair in the United States will host 283 exhibitors from 38 countries and territories.
Art fanatics would enjoy some of the world’s top galleries, including Gagosian, Hauser & Wirth, Pace, David Zwirner, Lisson Gallery, Thaddaeus Ropac, White Cube Gladstone Gallery, Massimo De Carlo, Gallery Hyundai, Kukje Gallery, Lehmann Maupin, LGDR, Kurimanzutto, Mendes Wood DM, Victoria Miro, Nara Roesler, Sprüth Magers, and Templon.
In addition, Bonnie Lautenberg will present an exhibition at The Jewish Museum of Florida-FIU. Lady Liberty: A Bonnie Lautenberg Retrospective will open on November 16th, going through March 26th.
The new solo museum show celebrates powerful images of women from two decades of art by Lautenberg. Spanning her multiple series of photography and conceptual art, Lautenberg admires the women in these works for their spirit of freedom.
The exhibition includes her portrayals of the Statue of Liberty confronting some of today’s most challenging issues. In response to the recent Supreme Court vote to overturn Roe vs. Wade, Lautenberg created Tears of Roe - a large-scale lightbox with tears running down the Statue of Liberty’s cheeks and the word Roe added to her crown, lamenting the current challenges to women’s freedoms making headlines today.
“I am so honored to be selected by the Jewish Museum of Florida-FIU during Miami Art Week and Art Basel Miami Beach, especially at this time when women’s issues are at the forefront,” says Bonnie Lautenberg.
Art Basel Miami Beach will take place from December 1 to 3 (with previews 29 and 30 November), at the Miami Beach Convention Center, Miami Beach, Florida. “It is truly exciting to celebrate our 20-year presence in Miami Beach. Over the last two decades our show has not only reinforced its pivotal position in the region—uniquely bridging the art scenes of North and South Americas, Europe, and beyond—but also played a galvanising role in the city’s profound cultural transformation. The increasingly diverse range of galleries and artistic voices represented will make our show richer in discoveries than ever before,” said Art Basel global director Marc Spiegler.
