BRIDGE ART FAIR ANNOUNCES SECOND MIAMI SHOW LOCATION
Bridge Miami Wynwood joins Bridge Miami Beach

BRIDGE MIAMI WYNWOOD: December 3–7
NE 1st Avenue and NW 34th Street

Invitation Only, Please Inquire


Building on three highly successful years in Miami Beach, Bridge is pleased to announce our inaugural Bridge Miami Wynwood, offering collectors, art professionals and visitors a boutique-style fair easily accessible in the heart of Midtown Miami. Bridge Art Fair Wynwood marks a significant expansion of Bridge’s presence at the global art fair market that converges in Miami every December.

Bridge Miami Wynwood features the best in international emerging art, presented in a modular, museum grade exhibition space, built on a 60,000 square foot development in Miami Midtown at NE 1st Avenue and NW 34th Street, immediately adjacent to Art Miami, Photo Miami and AIPAD, and centrally located between Scope, Pulse and Aqua. In addition to a spectacular booth fair, Bridge Miami Wynwood will also showcase an outdoor sculpture project. Located just off the Julia Tuttle Causeway, Bridge Wynwood will greet visitors crossing the bridge from South Beach at the entryway to Midtown Miami’s art fair circuit and through to the Design District.

While Bridge Miami Wynwood is invitation-only, interested galleries are encouraged to inquire.



BRIDGE MIAMI BEACH: December 4–7
The Catalina and Maxine Hotels
1732 Collins Avenue

Application deadline: Please inquire


Bridge Wynwood is presented concurrently with Bridge Miami Beach, taking place for the third year at the Catalina and Maxine Hotels on Collins Avenue. Bridge Miami Beach enjoys a two-block proximity to Art Basel at the Miami convention center, and welcomes thousands of attendees each day. After two years as a top satellite destination on Miami Beach, with sales in excess of ten million dollars, Bridge Miami Beach is a top seller and destination in its own right. Convenient champagne shuttles will run between the Bridge Fair locations 12pm-10pm daily.

Arguably the largest convergence of contemporary art and design takes place during Art Basel Miami in this annual, star-studded, citywide celebration of new art internationalism. Consistently a muscular destination market, Miami shows absolutely no signs of stopping. Despite a perceptible softening elsewhere in the American art marketplace, Miami continues to astound as far and beyond the top-performing art fair circuit in the United States.

About Bridge Art Fair
The goal of Bridge Art Fair, the independent international exposition of new art, is to broaden the exposure of emerging and contemporary art and artists by providing a showcase for the best from both established and up-and-coming galleries, artist collectives, and artist-run spaces. Connecting the global art community, Bridge Art Fair has a deep commitment to contemporary work in all media, including but not limited to painting, prints, photography, sculpture, installation, drawing, film, video, new media, and conceptual art. Never cookie cutter, each edition of Bridge Art Fair also spotlights a different international focus. The Bridge Focus section of each fair is defined both by geography and culture, providing each show with its own distinctive curatorial premise.
