Wynwood Galleries

The Wynwood Arts District is home to over 70 Art Galleries, Retail Stores, Antique Shops, Eclectic Bars, and one of the largest open-air street-art installations in the world.

Taking over what used to be the warehouse and manufacturing district of Greater Miami, developers have rehabilitated neglected warehouses, shuttered factories, and other unused buildings, transforming them into the numerous art complexes, galleries, performing art spaces, restaurants, cafes, and other creative businesses that are seen here today.

With the introduction of the Second Saturday Art Walk in the District and the arrival of the Art Basel fair in 2002, Wynwood has seen some unexpected growth in a relatively short period of time as it gets more and more attention by the locals as the go-to place for an alternative and more cultural nightlife in the City of Miami.

Though the influence and relevance of the arts community in Wynwood is undeniable, new, creative businesses of all types are opening their doors in the District and encountering success here.

The Rubell Family Collection (RFC) was established in 1964 in New York City, shortly after its founders Donald and Mera Rubell were married. It is now one of the world’s largest, privately owned contemporary art collections.

In Miami, Florida, since 1993, the RFC is exhibited within a 45,000-square-foot repurposed Drug Enforcement Agency confiscated goods facility and is publicly accessible. The Contemporary Arts Foundation (CAF) was created in 1994 by Don and Mera Rubell with their son Jason Rubell to expand the RFC’s public mission inside the paradigm of a contemporary art museum.

The Foundation has been recognized as a pioneer in what has been referred to as the “Miami model,” whereby private collectors create a new, independent form of public institution.

The gallery works with artists committed to the integrity of their individual histories and studio practices as agents of contemporary climate.

Among the artists exhibited are Jean-Michel Basquiat, Louise Bourgeois, John Chamberlain, Jean Dubuffet, Marcel Duchamp, Wifredo Lam, Willem de Kooning, Morris Louis, Claes Oldenburg, Pablo Picasso, Sigmar Polke, Jesus Rafael Soto, Frank Stella, Rufino Tamayo, Cy Twombly, Andy Warhol, and many others.
