The world renowned Art Basel, the most important art show in the United States, a cultural and social highlight for the Americas heads back to South Florida for a supreme exhibition of our world’s most exquisite and prominent artists. Among those uniquely special presentations is The Co11ective, an Art Basel satellite event that has been carefully curated to include some of the most talented veterans in their respective areas of visual art. The Co11ective features artists who form part of a conglomeration of bi-cultural visionaries known to employ distinctive skills and vision whether in the murals, structures or canvas they coat with their muse or in the mysteriously profound photographic statements they capture.
Adding to this fascinating weekend showcase is the musical expressions of inspiring musicians DJs, true masters of the decks and turntables for a true audiovisual experience. The Co11ective will have “golden tickets” attached to original work by The Co11ective artists throughout the city of Miami as part of their social media scavenger hunt. Clues will be posted on The Co11ective Twitter and Facebook sites for art enthusiasts to discover where the pieces are located. The artwork will include entrance to all events and serve as a memorable keepsake of Art Basel 2011.
In addition to these amazing artists, The Co11ective has joined forces with HVW8′s from Los Angeles who are best known by the mainstream market for their artistic collaborations with ADIDAS. Carlos Rodríguez, known artistically as MARE139 will also feature a special installation.
The Infamous Magazine considered the street art magazine will have a special showcase as part of the event. Red Bull also joins The Co11ective to feature the work of Panamanian BMX street rider Edwin De La Rosa. Red Bull Through My Eyes provides a creative outlet for athletes to tell their stories using visual media from the first person perspective. Through worldwide gallery installations, fans are able to view the world “through the eyes” of professional athletes.
The Co11ective’s vast inspiration is illustrated and defined by their own collection of artwork and specialties, all to be unveiled to the residents of South Florida and abroad during Art Basel 2011. White walls will come to life, breathing the creativity of The Co11ective.
