Art Basel Miami Beach, Dec 4 - 7. Art Basel is returning to Miami Beach this week for its annual stint, running at venues throughout the city from December 4 to December 7.

Art Basel Miami Beach, Dec 4 - 7

Art Basel Miami Beach continues its glitzy run this year promising over 250 international galleries from over 30 countries bringing more than 4,000 artists, including the US’s Clement Valla, Rollin Leonard, Kate Durbin, Mattie Hillock and Philip David Stearns, as well as France’s Pierre Clement, Vincent Broquaire, and Estrid Lutz + Emile Mold.

And running for the week of Art Basel is @hypersalon, a “meeting point for contemporary art” created by Transfer Gallery and XPO Gallery in partnership with Hyperallergic. The week of salon-style exhibitions, hosted conversations and daily artist talks include some names all too familiar to aqnb, including Daniel Temkin, as well as Carla Gannis and Claudia Hart who recently showed at the Coded After Lovelace exhibition, Spanish artist Claudia Mate, Marisa Olson of Art Post-Internet, and artist Alma Alloro.

Hypersalon: A Gem Amongst the Miami Fairs

There’s nothing better than finding these gifts and being able to share them with your friends. Count Hypersalon amongst those tidings for us this year. On view through appointment only, this exhibition is a joint effort by Transfer and XPO gallery and includes two show rooms, a lecture room and a yard full of public art. I wasn’t able to attend any of the lectures, but I did get a full tour of the exhibitions. Transfer, Installation view One of my favorite works at Basel. Rollin Leonard. I’ll admit I was skeptical about the idea of recreating Hieronymus Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights with emoji. Daniel Temkin made these pixel flip flops for the fair.

“Animation Attempts” by Alma Alloro

The online publication accompanies Hypersalon, a weeklong series (December 2–7, 2014) of salon-style exhibitions, artist talks, and conversations on the conditions of networked culture in contemporary art. Animation Attempts is a series of short-loops animations that point out the order in what is seemingly random. The animation is viewed alongside the hand-drawn pattern that was used to create it.

Performing Publishing: Infrathin Tales from the Printed Web

The online publication accompanies Hypersalon, a weeklong series (December 2–7, 2014) of salon-style exhibitions, artist talks, and conversations on the conditions of networked culture in contemporary art. In “Search, Compile, Publish” I identify some of the tactics used by artists who make books and other printout matter in the post-digital print space: grabbing, scraping, hunting, and performing. Together with an abundance of free content and easy access to print-on-demand technology, this has now become a way to talk about an evolving artists’ web-to-print practice in the post-digital space. This flux between screen and the printed page is apparent in the works that I collect for Library of the Printed Web and publish in Printed Web. This infrathin condition surrounds us.
