Miami Project and Art on Paper Miami open Tuesday, December 1st at The Deauville Beach Resort in the heart of Miami Beach. Building on the strong success of their previous editions, these co-located fairs will feature the best in modern and contemporary art presented by over seventy galleries from around the world.
MIAMI PROJECT EDITION FOUR
Miami Project’s fourth edition will feature a unique confluence of historical and contemporary art, offering fair-goers a distinct Miami Beach experience. On the heels of Miami’s Unrealism exhibition – a direct response to one of the biggest new trends in the market today – and the figurative bend of MoMA PS1’s Greater New York show, Miami Project will include several of the world’s top figurative painting programs. The resurgence of this timeless form of art-making has found its new place at the foreground of the global art scene, and Miami Project’s leading galleries that focus on paintings of the person will be a must-visit stop for all those seeking pristine examples of bold figuration.
Joining Miami Project for the first time, New York City’s Hirschl & Adler Modern will show work by John Moore and Christopher Wilmarth. Fellow first-time exhibitor Jill Newhouse Gallery will exhibit rare works on paper by Pierre Bonnard and Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. Making its Miami debut, Lori Bookstein Fine Art will show mixed media on panel by Hiroyuki Hamada with a series of screenprints on steel enamel plates by Jennifer Bartlett. Robert Fontaine Gallery will present significant work by Robert Rauschenberg including the artist’s 2007 Expresser (From The Runts Series) and 1980’s mixed media work Rush 3. Deborah Force Fine Art joins Miami Project to exhibit Charles Ephraim Burchfield’s Butterfly Festival, 1949-56, and a rare 1929 Edward Hopper watercolor on paper. Catharine Clark Gallery will present sculpture by Wanxin Zhang, Masami Teraoka’s 1984 watercolor and pencil on paper Work Painting for Wave Series, and Chris Doyle’s 2014 video The Fluid. Claire Oliver Gallery will show an exhibition of photographs by Laetitia Soulier and oil on canvas by Matt Bahen. Nancy Toomey Fine Art will present works on paper by Lynda Benglis and Larry Bell. Winston Wächter Fine Art will show a new monumental work on paper by Zaria Forman, Richard Levy Gallery will present painting by Mel Davis and Matt Magee, and Sasha Wolf Gallery will show large scale photography by Doug Fogelson and Christopher Rodriguez.

ART ON PAPER MIAMI
A Time Out New York Critic’s Pick and one of The New York Times’ must see March 2015 art fairs, Art on Paper New York welcomed over 18,000 visitors and played host to compelling, large-scale installations and critically acclaimed exhibitions over four buzzing days. The fair’s fresh Miami counterpart will be a similar forum for the exploration of a medium – a space for intimate conversation between exhibitor and collector with a refreshing focus on the artwork itself. Sasha Wolf returns as the fair’s Artistic Director working with James Stroud of Center Street Studio to guide the fair’s tightly curated paper-based program.
