|博览会|Design Miami 2025『迈阿密』(三)
卡在圣诞节前的设计迈阿密,总有种处处展示着买我买我买我的诡异气息哈哈哈。这么设定也确实不无道理,赶在一年的年末,把看中许久的宝贝且又是件有实用价值的艺术品,用来犒劳自己或者作为礼物送出总是会让人心动的。不得不说,这一届的设计迈阿密,虽然信息资料并不是太多(但我能扒啊嘿嘿),居然看到了很多新鲜面孔和有意思的设计与诠释。虽然材料那是那些传统材料--陶瓷、玻璃、金属或大自然赋予等等之类吧。但从设计理念和视觉呈现上,感觉悄咪咪的又往上升了一个大台阶。不知道是因为新生代设计师们已经开始占领话语权了,还是代理画廊主们也因为换了新生代所以品味区别于之前的。总之,AI肆虐的时代,依然可以看到诚意满满的表达就觉得有希望。What’s now referred to as Miami Art Week has grown around Art Basel Miami Beach –the vast contemporary art fair held at the Miami Beach Convention Center since 2002 – and its sister exhibition, Design Miami, which launched in 2005 and is now a highlight of the collectible design calendar. This showcase of avant-garde work was co-founded by developer and collector Craig Robins and designer Ambra Medda, and has since taken place annually and concurrently with the art fair.design miami 2025 highlightsOver the years, more fairs and events have joined the fray, including Untitled Art, which occupies a huge tent erected on the beach; NADA; and Art Miami and Context, all of which take place across Biscayne Bay in Downtown Miami. Add to that a wide array of independent shows, museum exhibitions, brand activations, temporary installations, pop-up retail spaces and, of course, countless parties hosted across Miami and Miami Beach.While the wider Miami Art Week has become increasingly commercial over the past decade, Design Miami remains a thoughtfully curated showcase of high-quality collectible furniture, objects and functional artworks. And although the event does invite brands to participate, these typically involve collaborations with international designers who create installations that range from ethereal to highly technical – and everything in between.This year, Design Miami is open to ticket-holders from 3–7 December, with an invite-only preview day on 2 December. To mark the culmination of the fair’s milestone 20th anniversary year, renowned American design curator Glenn Adamson is using the theme ‘Make.Believe.’ to look both back and forward at the world of collectible design and guide the direction of the event – which includes a special-projects programme of satellite installations and partner activations.Design Miami showcases some of the most innovative, artful and avant-garde collectible design by global talents, presented by galleries from the US and around the world. Over 70 exhibitors – including more than 25 debuts – will participate in the 2025 edition, with notable returning galleries including the Future Perfect, Carpenters Workshop Gallery, Friedman Benda, David Gill Gallery, Superhouse and many more.
