The Basel Art Fair 2010 allows the Miami art community to express the value and importance of art in our everyday lives.

This year's Art Basel 2010 will outdo Art Basel 2009. The upcoming Miami Beach Sculpture Biennial is scheduled to open December 3, 2010 and run through January 15, 2011 for the Art Miami Basel showing. The works of fifty artists will be displayed including the exceptional piece from Henry Richardson TIKKUN (Healing the World).

Art Basel Dates will be December 2nd through December 5th in 2010
Artist Henry Richardson's masterpiece TIKKUN will be revealed at the Art Miami Basel in Miami Beach.

Miami Beach Basel Art such as TIKKUN

It has been called "masterpiece", the 5000-pound, 78-inch diameter, chiseled glass sculpture titled TIKKUN (Healing The World). The inspiration for this piece comes from the Hebrew phrase "Tikkun Olam" which means: repairing the world. It is an impressive glass sphere that towers over its audience. Its color reminds viewers of blue green Caribbean waters. Richardson uses the sphere as a symbol for the universe and the laws of nature and endlessness. Many of his viewers find metaphors for life in his works of art. The opportunity to see this impressive glass sculpture should not be missed. The AJ Japour Gallery is excited to announce this special event as well as their Charity auction in Key Biscayne on December fourth. These upcoming events create buzz throughout the Miami community.

Miami Beach Basel Art, TIKKUN, Has the Theme on Regeneration:

Richardson expresses that his work carries a constant theme of regeneration. It is similar to an individual who experiences trauma or emotional stress. The pieces are broken and rebuilt such as life through the constant rebuilding of ourselves, making us whole again. To think that his sculptures start as cold commercial grade window glass and they are transformed into breath taking sculptures that transmit light and radiance. It can almost be compared to the metamorphosis of the butterfly. From common to extravagant, this is why the 2010 Art Basel (Miami Beach Basel Art fair) is so significant.
