Art Basel Miami Beach returns this December with its most ambitious edition yet, welcoming 287 premier galleries from 44 countries and territories to the Miami Beach Convention Center from December 5–7, 2025. Discover the full list of exhibitors here.
The 2025 edition strengthens the fair’s position as the leading international art showcase in the Americas, with more than two–thirds of galleries operating spaces across North and South America. This year's lineup spans from blue–chip powerhouses like Gagosian and David Zwirner to emerging voices making their fair debuts.
New voices from the Americas
A standout feature of this year’s fair is its expanded representation of Latin American and Caribbean galleries. For the first time, El Apartamento – the first homegrown Cuban gallery to join the fair, with exhibition spaces in both Havana and Madrid – will showcase works exploring Afro–Cuban identity.
The regional diversity extends from Mexico City’s Lodos and Proyecto Nasal to São Paulo’s Galeria Mapa, Buenos Aires’ Pasto Galería, and Lima’s Crisis gallery. These newcomers join established regional stalwarts like OMR (Mexico City) and Raquel Arnaud (São Paulo).
'This edition reflects the vitality of artistic production across the Americas,’ says Bridget Finn, Director of Art Basel Miami Beach. 'The fair serves as a critical gateway for introducing pioneering international artists and perspectives to the American market.’
Coast–to–coast American representation
The United States sees robust representation with nearly 50 exhibitors operating spaces in California, including San Francisco newcomers Rebecca Camacho Presents and Catharine Clark Gallery alongside Los Angeles stalwarts like Regen Projects and David Kordansky Gallery.
New York’s art scene expands its Miami Beach presence with first–time participants including David Peter Francis, Candice Madey, and Kate Werble Gallery. The fair also reaches beyond coastal hubs, welcoming Dallas’ Erin Cluley Gallery and the return of Philadelphia’s Locks Gallery after nearly two decades.
International participation remains strong with nearly 100 returning exhibitors from Europe, Asia, and Africa. Notable debuts include Ukraine’s first–ever representation through Voloshyn Gallery (Kyiv, Miami Beach), while established international programs from galleries like Galleria Continua and mor charpentier continue their cross–continental focus on American artistic production.
The fair organizes presentations across the following main sectors:
Galleries: The main sector featuring established dealers presenting Modern masters through emerging practitioners, with newcomers like Hong Kong’s Alisan Fine Arts highlighting underrecognized Chinese–American artists.
Nova: Spotlighting works created within the last three years, including Berlin’s Heidi presenting American–Jamaican artist Akeem Smith's scratch–off paintings drawn from Caribbean Dancehall archives.
Positions: Solo presentations by emerging artists, featuring newcomers like London’s Nicoletti with French artist Josèfa Ntjam's photomontage triptych exploring colonial legacies.
Survey: Historical works made between 1900 and 1999, including David Peter Francis presenting Pat Oleszko’s 1995 inflatable installation ahead of her SculptureCenter retrospective.
Art Basel Awards – gold medalists announced
The 2025 edition of Art Basel Miami Beach will also coincide with Art Basel revealing the Gold Medalists of the inaugural Art Basel Awards, chosen from a distinguished group including artists Cecilia Vicuña, Nairy Baghramian, and Meriem Bennani.
Art beyond the fair
Beyond the convention center, the fair anchors a week–long cultural celebration featuring exhibitions at premier institutions including The Bass Museum, Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), and ICA Miami.
