and at The Project Room, Columbia College Chicago.


Scenario:

Recent successes have catapulted Second Front tot he heights of the
virtual art world. And, in coming to Art Basel Miami, SF has fallen
in with the proper scene of art-world decadence. Hovering limos,
pastel suits, .45 caliber pistols, seas of virtual coke and sexual
peccadillos with flocks of ostriches invade Miami nightlife. Will SF
fall in with virtual Colombian drug cartels? Will they even sell a
painting? And what about the Ostriches?


Art Basel Miami Vice is an expose of the Miami art world underground
nightlife with all its drama, danger, and wildlife.


Thanks to all of the sponsoring institutions for making the piece
possible, and check the Second Front Blog around Christmas for more
