Elizabeth Turk At Art Basel Miami Beach 2012

This year’s Art Basel Miami Beach, contemporary best was sculptor Elizabeth Turk, marble carving to an exquisite belief in the fluid form.

Her work is a shining example of where the direction lies towards a classic Fine Art future, the humility needed to execute a

perfect patience with such a delicate pursuit of the making, leaves one only to marvel in response.

Elizabeth Turk’s latest marble sculptures would be a touch stone cultural bridge to middle east liberal progressions,

part of a new creative generation of women moving the eco- symbols of humanity towards the transcontinental spring.

Her work is Nationally recognized by the American Institute of Architects and the MacArthur Foundation, two important credits

to her career. Turk’s current series of Ribbon marble forms are a joy to behold. They immediately evoke a collective response,

as total strangers share their wonderment together. When Art achieves this, it’s worth every dime to own it because we will all

pay more than a dime to see it again and again.

Chairman of the Miami Beach Host committee for Art Basel 2012 is Norman Braman, the county’s most popular and dynamic figure talked about the international reach he personally has witnessed. Miami Beach Mayor Matti Herrera Bower was delighted to have Collins Park active encouraging the Art Basel crowd to explore. Guy Morin, Canton President of Basel_Stadt and Jason Chandler, UBS committed to the audience the expansion of the Art Basel market with an all year presence on Miami Beach announced by Annette Schönholzer and Marc Spiegler. It was an exciting start to the event and Miami officials were beaming to host this very lucrative and culturally prestigious show once again. The layout, sections and comfort needs fit well into the Miami Beach Convention Center and finding an alternative venue on the Beach would be hard. Mr. Norman Braman is correct in praising the lift the region has with the Basel partnership, Miami was also ready for a major art show or Biennial at the end of the 90’s. Now our region will have the Asian art market to attract visitors and investors.
