Returning to Miami for the third consecutive year from Dec. 6 – 8th, the three-day activation at the Faena Forum will feature a curation of leading artists, top-tier partner activations, and industry titans.
Now Media and FACTBLOCK have partnered to present Gateway Miami during Miami Art Week. The three-day activation will include an immersive audiovisual gallery of leading digital artists, partner activations and compelling programming of fireside chats, keynote speakers and more. Gateway Miami is the fourth iteration of The Gateway. It follows the highly successful debut of Gateway Korea this past September that welcomed 4,500 visitors and last year’s Gateway Miami that welcomed 12,000 visitors.
Gateway Miami will take over the iconic Faena Forum, marking the first time the event has ever been held on South Beach during Art Basel Miami and transforms the Rem Koolhaus and OMA designed space into a lush garden fitting of the curatorial theme, Blossoming. Featuring immersive installations from Christie’s, LG Art Lab, Lens, Mercedes-Benz NXT, SHISEIDO, Wilder World, Ekos Genesis Art Collection and Atomic Form, Gateway Miami will kick off with a VIP dinner followed by an invite-only opening party with a surprise musical guest. Brand new initiatives from multiple partners will be revealed throughout the three days.
