Art Basel: Artpocalypse Now

Cocurated by Miami's Glexis Novoa, Gean Moreno, and Charo Oquet — along with Sandra Ceballos and Ezequiel Suárez of Havana's Espacio Aglutinador, Cuba's oldest indie alt space — the show offers a survey of the contemporary Cuban and local culture.

"We are doing our exhibit at Edge Zones' nonprofit space in Wynwood," Novoa says. "We are using a stealth marketing ploy to draw attention to noncommercial proposals during the Basel fairs. For us, Art Basel has never been interested in what's happening locally.

"There has always been a poor or nonexistent representation of local spaces and talent at Basel, and that remains a huge problem every year. We wanted to include serious proposals in an ironic and humorous way to address this failure."
