Art Basel Takes Over Miami

Twas the Night Before


Irene Sperber

'Twas the night before Art Basel when all through Miami, creatures were stirring all gorgeous and glammy.

Paintings were hung on the walls with care, in hopes that Collectors soon would be there.

The people were nestled all snug in their Keds, while visions of artists danced in their heads.

Mama in her Louboutins and I in my Gap, had just settled in with artists from all over the map.

When out on the street there arose such clatter, I sprang from my cell phone to see what was the matter. What to my wandering eyes should I sees, but 75,000 visitors and over 200 galleries.

With a wonderful Director so lively and eager, I knew in a moment it must be Marc Spiegler.

More rapid than eagles his Sectors they came, and he whistled and shouted and called them by name:

"Now Galleries, now Nova, now Positions and Editions. On Kabinett, on Public, on Survey, Film and Magazines.

To the top of the Fairs, to the top of the hall, now sell away, sell away, sell away all!"
