David Zwirner is participating in Art Basel Miami Beach and on view will be work by a range of artists, including Adel Abdessemed, Francis Alÿs, Dan Flavin, Isa Genzken, Jeff Koons, Yayoi Kusama, Donald Judd, John McCracken, Raymond Pettibon, and Lisa Yuskavage. The gallery has been a part of this fair since its first year in 2002.
At the fair’s “Public” sector located outdoors at Collins Park is Flora’s Garden I, a recent large-scale work by Carol Bove made of petrified wood and steel. The artist is known for her simple yet intricate assemblages of found and made objects, which are often carefully arranged on pedestals, elevated platforms, or directly against walls and ceilings. This particular sculpture formed part of Bove’s contribution to dOCUMENTA (13) in Kassel, Germany, 2012, where individual objects were arranged together in a sequence inspired by the organizational layout of the city's Orangerie garden.
