Knowledge is elitist and ignorance is democratic! December in Miami with Art Basel 2014

I just returned from Art Basel Miami 2014 where I spend 3 action packed days. What a blast!  I visited Art Basel, Miami Art, Miami Project, Art Scope, and Untitled.  It was great stimulation.
.

What came to my mind as that three smells describe good life in Miami: smell of ocean, smell of sweat and smell of fine perfume. 


When it came to the art I kept thinking that many artists create objects like children create sounds.  
Children make sound so they can hear themselves, their diapason, volume etc.  They are just learning about themselves and their “creative” capability.  There is no other intention.  With artists there is one more – sell art!


On the other hand there are artists that not only have something to say, but also it is important what they say.  And in additions they can say it in a manner that is clear, elegant, shocking, seducing and/or understandable.
