Art Basel Miami Beach 2012 Preview: Part 1

It’s hard to believe that it’s already been one year since the last Art Basel Miami Beach! But here we are. From Dec. 6 through 9, more than 250 international galleries will present work to an international cast of curators, collectors and various enthusiasts at the Miami Beach Convention Center. (The fair opens to invited guests one day early, Wednesday, Dec. 5.)
