Primary Flight teams up with Miami’s cycling culture leaders, EMERGE, to present Street.Art.Cycles: Art Basel Edition – a guided exploration through the main streets and back roads of Wynwood Arts District. Street.Art.Cycles will offer bike tours visiting more than 50 significant murals sites by established local and international artists. Guided by Dario Gonzalez and Olga Cano of EMERGE Miami, this initiative offers bikers a curated encounter, providing information about how the outdoor mural movement has taken shape in South Florida over recent years, and with commentary about the featured artists and sites.

Since 2007, Primary Flight has been dedicated to developing the largest, multi-site, street mural installation in the country. Joined by independent artists, gallerists and developers, Miami’s street movement has rapidly grown into a picturesque collection of outdoor masterpieces. Giving residents and visitors of the Wynwood area a visual experience beyond Art Basel, the innovation behind graffiti culture and urban beautification has become an integral part of the city’s artistic identity.
The graffiti bike tours by Street.Art.Cycle promote cycling as an alternative form of transportation and exercise, creating a simple, effective means of embracing a healthy, community-driven lifestyle. This will be the second bike tour of this kind organized by Primary Flight and Street.Art.Cycle.
Primary Flight is a collaborative curatorial organization dedicated to the production of site-specific, street level, mural installations. Since its inception in 2007, Primary Flight has brought together more than 150 of the world’s most influential artists to install their bodies of work live in the streets of Wynwood, the Design District and greater Miami-Dade. These projects often function as a catalyst for developing arts communities. For more information please visit www.primaryflight.com.
