Art Basel Miami Beach: The High Rollers

Don & Mera Rubell Photographed at The Rubell Family Collection on October 7th 2011

After spending 5 days riding my bike all over Miami taking in enormous amounts of artwork I find myself settled back home in New York City. Art Basel Miami Beach, the fair’s 10th Edition, commisionned a series of 10 portraits including the most influencial individuals who have defined Miami as an important destination for modern and contemporary art. A great many impressive collections exist in Miami and housed in privately run museums, The Rubell Family Collection, De La Cruz Collection and the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation to name a few. I was fortunate enough to have spent quality time with these collections and the individuals who love and share them with the world.

The following portraits were produced between October 4th 2011 & October 7th 2011.
