Art Basel Miami Kicks Off This Week

Art Basel Miami starts this week from December 3-6.  With Andy Warhol’s “200 One Dollar Bills” painting fetching over $43 million earlier this month, many artists and galleries are hoping that the art market has also hit its bottom and that this year’s event will prove more lucrative than last year’s.  In addition to the exhibitions and events connected to Art Basel, there will be many sideline exhibits and activities, many of them free.
