Wynwood After Basel

   
After the Circus of “Art Basel Miami Beach” has left town, the streets of Wynwood are once again all but deserted.  On a beautiful January afternoon the solitude is broken by the occasional biker pedaling along or the sound of auto body mechanics ordering their lunch from the local food truck parked in the middle of the street.

The only signs that the circus had even been in town are the colorful graffiti murals covering the walls of this warehouse district in transition.  But step inside one of the many galleries hiding behind nondescript metal doors and there you will find the smaller acts working hard to present their shows to the public.

A few of the shows now on exhibit in Wynwood are reviewed here
