Chambres à Part will take place between November 28th and December 3rd, during Art Basel Miami. The exhibition is located on Park Avenue in the heart of Miami's South Beach, a stone's throw from The Bass Museum and walking distance from the Convention Center. The building is a unique 5-story building and a quintessential representation of the exhibition's host city, as seen in the legendary 80's TV series, Miami Vice.
