Moksha Art Fair
1/3
The Moksha Art Fair (MAF) is a dynamic showcase featuring the luminaries of Visionary Art presented as a satellite event to Art Basel Miami Beach. By stimulating experimental and radical concepts through artistic expression, we reflect the blossoming of global consciousness while generating artistic recognition for Visionary Art. This genre is under recognized within mainstream outlets, although some artists’ work is now considered fine art by established critics.. MAF invites emerging and established artists and scholars within the disciplines of visual arts, music, video, performance, literature and research to participate and share their experiences within this expansive forum. MAF includes an exhibition, lectures, an artist panel discussion and multimedia performance. We select artists and performers who enhance each other and blend collaboratively via video mapping, live painting, dance, and a wide range of music. The vending area includes various crafts from featured local and international artists. Within a sea of artwork and exhibitions, MAC stands out with vibrant multiculturalism meshed with a mind-expanding edge and a distinctive production quality

MAC is ready to expand this immersive experience by utilizing cutting edge digital technology to shift the audience’s perspective.
