UNTITLED ART Osman Can Yerebakan’s Dispatch | Miami Beach, Dec 4, 2019
Osman Can Yerebakan’s Dispatch | Miami Beach, Dec 4, 2019 Artists Interpret the Body Being “Miami-ready” not only means preparing for a heavily-packed fair schedule and unending pours of Prosecco; not unlike any beachside affair, Miami Art Week raises the “alarming” debate of the beach body that many fairgoers strive to achieve before arriving to South Beach. Accompanying the beachgoers enjoying the generous sun inside the UNTITLED tent this year are various depictions of the body, ranging from the idealized to the grotesque or even absent but captivating. While contemporary artists continue to interpret the body’s mysterious ways of conveying a range of issues, from political to personal or social to erotic, many booths display works that tackle such issues through various media and experimentation of form.
