I invite you to visit our space in Wynwood during Art Basel. We are presenting an incredible group show of Internet and Technology aware art curated by Ryder Ripps and featuring works by young artists who believe art is intrinsically social and should be reflective of its time. The show opens on Friday, Dec. 2 at 6pm. Hope you can make it.

LikeArtBasel is aimed at raising the exposure of Internet and Technology aware art. A group exhibition curated with the strong belief that art is intrinsically social and should be reflective of its time. It investigates how a next generation of art embodies the ideas that define the technology infused and Internet fluent culture of today. Some artists in this exhibition have never sold work, while others have exhibited in venues such as The Whitney Biennial, Saatchi Gallery Collection, The Venice Bienniale, and The New Museum. LikeArtBasel is curated under the basis that an artist’s newfound clout is measured in quantities of Facebook “Likesâ€, not the Biennials. The outcome of this fresh curatorial style is democratic and honest – demanding only the best.
