Edge Zones Art Fair - 2007

Edge Zones Art Fair, Miami, Florida, December 5th - 9th, 2007. Located in the Wynwood Art District. This was an artist fair, where the displays were organized and paid for by working artists. When returning in 2008, this will be one of the first art fairs on my must visit list, however they will most likely be in a new location.


Miguel Guzman, the artwork on the left was my favorite in all of Miami. If you're a gallery and looking for good artists you should get to know Miguel and his work.
