Best Art Basel Miami Artists

This is the week that the entire art world descends on South Florida for the annual art fair/excuse to party that is Miami Art Basel. It, and its satellite shows, are the premiere place to see — and buy, maybe — new work from established and emerging artists represented by galleries from around the world. We asked David Wilfert — the editor of art, style, and culture Website The World's Best Ever — to give us the rundown on the five artists everyone should be checking for during and after the fairs:

1. George Condo

It seems that everywhere you look these days you see work by George Condo, and Art Basel is no exception. Six galleries in total are showing the work of this New York-based artist. Thanks in part to Kanye West having the good taste to select him as the cover artist for his most recent album, alongside collaborations with Supreme and Adam Kimmel, plus an upcoming 25 year retrospective at the New Museum, the painter and sculptor is definitely having a moment. All of these facts just lead to one revelation: Forget about buying a condo — buy a Condo.
