Art Basel is the premier art show in America and held annually at Miami Beach. The art show features 286 galleries from 38 countries. A small selection of not to miss booths this year is listed below:
Perrotin
Booth A03
Perrotin is pleased to participate in Art Basel Miami Beach 2024 with a solo presentation of paintings by Danielle Orchard. Orchard revisits the history of painting to propose new, arresting representations of womanhood, often depicting nude figures in moments of solitude. The concept of the female nude finds itself deeply embedded in art history as a muse and more recently as a subject of study. Orchard renders her compositions with the sharp lines of cubism, while her use of details reject the sexism of painterly tradition. The women in Orchard’s paintings undertake a journey that is at once entirely personal and universal. Inspired by the experience of having her first child, Orchard’s presentation in Miami simultaneously illustrates the expectations of pregnancy and the reality of motherhood.
Venus Over Manhattan
Booth A4
Reflecting the gallery’s evolving program, Venus Over Manhattan’s presentation at Booth A4 will feature new works by artists new to the gallery program, including Brad Kahlhamer, Neil Jenney, Seth Becker, John Pule, Elizabeth Colomba, Phoebe Derlee, and Yuichiro Ukai. The booth highlights works by Richard Mayhew and Keiichi Tanaami, two gallery artists who passed away this year; Tanaami’s first-ever solo museum exhibition in the United States, “Keiichi Tanaami: Memory Collage,” opens at ICA Miami on November 21. Additional highlights include Helen Frankenthaler’s Flume (1977), a rarely seen painting once owned by noted art critic Clement Greenberg, and Roy Lichtenstein’s Paintings: Picasso Head (1984), which recasts a Picasso sketch with Ben-Day dots. Complementing these historic works are new paintings by Peter Saul, Ana Benaroya, and Susumu Kamijo, alongside significant works by Xenobia Bailey, Joyce Pensato, Jim Nutt, among many others. Artists featured in the presentation include: Xenobia Bailey, Anastasia Bay, Seth Becker, Ana Benaroya, Katherine Bernhardt, Joan Brown, Elizabeth Colomba, Phoebe Derlee, Helen Frankenthaler, Sally Gabori, Neil Jenney, Brad Kahlhamer, Susumu Kamijo, Claude Lawrence, Roy Lichtenstein, Richard Mayhew, Jim Nutt, Joyce Pensato, Richard Prince, John Pule, Peter Saul, Keiichi Tanaami, Yuichiro Ukai, and Takako Yamaguchi.
Lehmann Maupin
Booth C21
Lehmann Maupin returns to Art Basel Miami Beach for the 23rd year with a presentation of new and recent work that foregrounds innovative approaches to traditional art mediums, from multimedia painting to wall-based and assemblage sculpture, to silk collage, to video-based installation. Presentation highlights include a new painting by Calida Rawles, whose first solo museum exhibition Away with the Tides is on view at the Pérez Art Museum Miami, as well as new silk collages by Billie Zangewa, whose traveling solo exhibition Billie Zangewa: Field of Dreams opens ahead of the fair on November 23 at the Frost Art Museum in Miami.
Sprüth Magers Gallery
Booth D14
Highlighting new work by George Condo, Anne Imhof, Arthur Jafa, Mire Lee, Hyun-Sook Song, and Kara Walker, the booth will also show works by artists who have a longstanding relationship with the gallery such as Richard Artschwager, John Baldessari, Andreas Gursky, Jenny Holzer, Barbara Kruger, and Rosemarie Trockel, featured alongside a younger generation of artists, such as Jon Rafman, Martine Syms, and Ryan Trecartin / Lizzie Fitch.
Tina Kim Gallery
Booth D16
Tina Kim Gallery is pleased to return to Art Basel Miami Beach from December 6–8, 2024. The presentation will feature major new works by leading modern and contemporary artists from across their international program who engage with themes of tradition, migration, and globalization.
The booth will feature sculptures by Mire Lee, whose Hyundai Commission installation recently opened at Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall in London to critical acclaim. Lee’s practice draws on primal bodily experiences to create works that both attract and repulse the viewer, using industrial materials to evoke the forms and sensations of living organisms.
Egyptian-born artist Ghada Amer is known for her longstanding advocacy of women’s agency and liberation in her artistic practice. Her monumental “Paravent Girls” bronzes, commissioned for her 2023 retrospective at the Mucem in Marseilles, were recently on view at the Domaine National du Palais-Royal in Paris as part of Art Basel in October.
Born in Korea and based in Colorado, Maia Ruth Lee's ongoing “Bondage Baggage” series explores themes of diaspora, displacement, and migration. In this series, Lee's canvases are first tied with rope, imitating the methods used by Nepalese migrants to transport their belongings. After being stained with colored ink, these canvases are unfurled into flat paintings, bearing a lasting imprint of the binding process.
Lisson Gallery
Booth E14
Lisson Gallery’s presentation at the 2024 edition of Art Basel Miami Beach highlights new painting, sculpture, photography, and textile works by artists across its roster, as well as a selection of important historical pieces, including works by Kelly Akashi, Olga de Amaral, Cory Arcangel, Tony Cragg, Carmen Herrera, Oliver Lee Jackson, Josh Kline, Anish Kapoor, Lee Ufan, Leiko Ikemura, Sean Scully, Tunga, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and more.
Presented for the first time is a new oil on canvas work by Lee Ufan from his Response series of paintings. Rooted in Lee’s anchoring of his works to the moment of ‘encounter,’ these paintings are defined by their singular sweeps of acrylic – a moment in time and space when the brush marks the canvas. Response (2024) depicts a gently waved brushstroke in a gradient from rich umber through to the palest pink.
Magenta Plains
Booth E15
Magenta Plains is pleased to present a group exhibition of new and historical works by Jennifer Bolande, Ken Lum, Liza Lacroix, Matt Keegan, and Tina Girouard for the Galleries section of Art Basel Miami Beach. Exploring themes of iconography, language, and the range of semiotic variances in art-making, this group presentation encapsulates a dynamic dialogue among a variety of artists from the gallery’s program. The works exhibited in this presentation all speak toward the moment of precognition, the pause between perception and understanding of a relationship between image and text, form and meaning.

Exhibited artists include: Etel Adnan, Petah Coyne, Leonardo Drew, Jean Dubuffet, Günther Förg, Ficre Ghebreyesus, Sarah Grilo, David Hockney, Hyunsun Jeon, Samuel Levi Jones, Jannis Kounellis, Ana Mendieta, Jaume Plensa, Alison Saar, Christine Safa, Zilia Sánchez, Pinaree Sanpitak, Kate Shepherd, Tariku Shiferaw, Kiki Smith, Mildred Thompson, Richard Tuttle, Juan Uslé, and Chris Watts.

MASSIMODECARLO
Booth G20
At this year’s Art Basel Miami, MASSIMODECARLO’s booth explores gold in all its gleaming, contradictory glory. From luxury to spiritual purity, and from critique to playful indulgence, this shimmering metal binds Maurizio Cattelan, Jim Hodges, Mimmo Paladino, and John Armleder, each artist wielding it to challenge, seduce, and spark a little chaos.
