TWELV is excited to announce Tokyo-based, photographer Jörgen Axelvall’s new exhibition and book release, Go To Become.
ART BASEL DIARY #4
TWELV knew we couldn’t leave Art Basel without exploring the up-and-coming area of Wynwood, Miami. Luckily, the eclectic galleries, crowds, and shops were unlike anything we had seen at Basel yet and kept us busy all afternoon. Young artists, musicians, and their fans explored the many exhibitions and bars even after the sun went down. Everywhere we looked, there were street artists creating murals, music, and selling their goods to interested parents, children and teenagers. We even filled up our green juice quota with JugoFresh samples near the iconic Wynwood Walls!
For dinner tonight, we wanted to experience a little more exotic cuisine and adventured over to a Cuban restaurant with great reviews. Luckily, the food did not disappoint with spicy plantain chips, sugar cane tuna steak, salmon ceviche and lobster enchiladas that we could not get enough of. Who’s jealous?
Unfortunately our time in beautiful Florida has come to an end; we must get back on a plane to NYC! We hope you have enjoyed our diary and been able to live vicariously through us these past few days. Until next year…
