UNTITLED, ART is pleased to announce programming for the ninth edition of its Miami Beach fair, which will take place online this year. In addition to exhibiting 60 galleries from 30 cities in 18 countries, UNTITLED, ART Miami Beach OVR will host a selection of live panel discussions taking place on Zoom and social media platforms. The online fair will run from December 2-6, 2020, with a VIP Preview on Tuesday, December 1 at 11am EST.

As UNTITLED, ART is a curated art fair, a strong theme runs through the extensive virtual programming planned for this year’s Miami Art Week. Organized by UNTITLED, ART‘s Artistic Director and Curator Omar Lopez-Chahoud, the 2020 edition of the fair focuses on Contemporary Artists from the Caribbean, spotlighting artists and organizations from this region, who are creating innovative and important work across the globe. Leadership from nonprofits and groups including Teorética Costa Rica, Caribbean Art Initiatives, and the forthcoming Kingston, Jamaica-based Museum of Contemporary Caribbean Art will be included in live-streamed programming during the week of December 1-6, 2020.

“UNTITLED, ART was founded in Miami Beach, and it was important for us in this online edition to reiterate our commitment to the city and to the deep Caribbean and Latin influences that contribute to the vibrance that make Miami, the dynamic city it is. Omar was born in Cuba and grew up in Miami and the program he has curated is informed by his knowledge of the region, as well as the artists and organizations who are making a lasting impact on arts and culture. We are proud to be able to offer our collectors and visitors this world-class experience through our state-of-the art OVR technology,” said Jeff Lawson, founder of UNTITLED, ART.

UNTITLED, ART Miami Beach will continue to maintain relationships with its cultural partners across the city of Miami, including The Bass, El Espacio 23, and ICA Miami, among others, as well as provide support to local nonprofits which often rely on an influx of tourism this December art week. Curators from these institutions, along with international curators, local collectors and cultural tastemakers, will be tapped to share their picks from the Online Viewing Rooms of UNTITLED, ART. Confirmed participants include: Agnes B., fashion designer and collector; Susanna Temkin, curator, El Museo del Barrio; and Ana Solokoff, art advisor.
