All the Art You Need to See During Miami Art Week 2025

Casey Lesser's guide to Miami Art Week 2025 highlights ten key art destinations, led by Art Basel Miami Beach at the Miami Beach Convention Center with over 280 galleries. Other featured venues include ICA Miami, which presents five solo exhibitions by artists such as Igshaan Adams and Masaomi Yasunaga, and Untitled Art, a beachside fair focusing on emerging and mid-career artists. The article also notes non-art events like an NFL pop-up and a Sukeban wrestling match, alongside REEFLINE, an underwater sculpture park.

The Reefline, a non-profit eco-art initiative, has launched its first phase of a seven-mile underwater sculpture park and artificial reef along Miami Beach. The project debuted with 'Concrete Coral' by Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich, a submerged sculpture depicting a traffic jam designed to provide a habitat for marine life. Future phases include works by Carlos Betancourt, Alberto Latorre, and Petroc Sesti, all overseen by the architecture firm OMA and founder Ximena Caminos.

Concrete cars for coral reefs: Miami's underwater eco-sculpture park takes shape

The first phase of the Reefline project, an underwater sculpture park off the coast of Miami Beach, has been installed with 22 submerged concrete cars created by Argentine artist Leandro Erlich. The sculptures, titled "Concrete Coral" (2025), sit 20 feet below the surface and are designed to support coral regeneration and marine biodiversity. The project was developed by cultural placemaker Ximena Caminos with a masterplan by architect Shohei Shigematsu of OMA, and will expand over ten years to reach seven miles in length. Visitors can access the site via swimming, diving, or electric paddleboards, and a floating marine learning center is anchored nearby during Miami Art Week.
