I am sure you all know about Art Basel Miami Beach took place this past weekend from December 5th - 8th. With over 250 galleries, 50,000 visitors, and amazing weather - it's no wonder why this event has become the premier destination for art lovers. Instagram was flooded with pics of artwork, installations, and parties.
Julie B roamed the streets of Miami discovering the best that Art Basel had to offer and here are our official picks:
FriendsWithYou installation at the Mandarin was amazing - especially with the pimped out ice cream truck

Julie B. worked hard sculpting the Pretty in Plastic contribution and wanted to share a little sneak peak of what to expect this weekend...
Aside from a crew of custom Power Rangers there will also be a mural inspired by the heroes. It's going to be a great night filled with art and "Go Go Power Ranger" chants. We will see you this Saturday at TAG Gallery on Melrose.
Pretty In Plastic Inc. is located in Downtown Los Angeles. We are toy couture and do everything from design...sculpt...prototype...limited art runs...to manufacturing...from small scale to large! -Julie B.
