[MIAMI BASEL] Fountain Art Fair

Fountain Art Fair will return to Art Basel Miami Beach, taking over the 25th St / North Miami warehouse for its 6th consecutive year. Opening Thursday, December 1st for a VIP & Press Preview, Fountain will set itself apart from other internationally applauded fairs with its vivacious, rogue attitude and selection of the most cutting-edge alternative galleries and independent artists. Fountain is thrilled to announce that the always audacious Grace Exhibition Space will curate an on-site, weekend-long program of evocative contemporary visual performance by artists Gim Gwang Cheol (Korea), Myk Henry (Ireland/NYC), Erik Hokanson (NYC), Quinn Dukes (NYC), Jill McDermid (Outer Space), Paul White (UK), and Hannah Dean (UK). Also joining the roster for Miami is original Fountain exhibitor Front Room, along with Tinca Art, We-are-Familia, and Untitled ArtProjects. This year Fountain Miami’s signature on-site street art installation is curated by Samson Contompasis, director of Albany’s The Marketplace, and will feature over 150 feet of work by fifteen of the most in-demand street artists including Sharktoof, Chris Stain, Olek, Hugh Leeman, Chor Boogie, OverUnder, White Cocoa, Army of One, Clown Soldier, Joe Iurato, CAKE, Tip-Toe, Elle, Ian Ross, and Know Hope.
