NAP TAKE OVER: Art Basel Miami Beach

As we trade in our bathing suits for winter coats, we take a look back at the 71 NAP alumni that took over Miami Art Week this year.  No matter whether you were strolling down a long aisle at Untitled, turning a corner at NADA, or scooting around celebrities at Art Basel, there were NAP stars at every turn.  To see so many old and new friends making waves warms our hearts more than fuzzy socks and boots could ever warm our toes.  

Congratulations to all of our NAP family! Keep scrolling to see the -we repeat- *71* NAP artists on view:
