Spectrum Miami and Red Dot Miami concluded milestone editions during Miami Art Week 2025, bringing two of the city’s longest-running contemporary art fairs together under one roof at the Mana Wynwood Convention Center from December 3 through December 7.
Spectrum Miami marked its 15th edition, while Red Dot Miami celebrated its 20th year, drawing artists, collectors, galleries, and curators from around the world. More than 1,000 artists were presented by over 280 exhibitors, reinforcing the fairs’ position as accessible entry points into the contemporary and fine art market.
The week opened with an Opening Night VIP Preview on December 3, presented by Empress 1908 Gin, with music by DJ Joey Paradis. Attendees included international collectors, gallery owners, and industry professionals who previewed works spanning painting, sculpture, mixed media, street art, and installation. The fairs also featured [SOLO], a curated platform highlighting independent and emerging artists.
Across both fairs, daily programming included live demonstrations, artist talks, curated gallery sections, and interactive installations. Spectrum Miami’s Spotlight Program, Art Labs, Meet the Artists series, and Discoveries Collection—featuring works priced at $3,000 or less—encouraged direct engagement between artists and collectors.
Notable Spectrum Miami presentations included the expanded Spectrum FOCUS exhibition by the Jason Perez Art Collective, live painting sessions at the Spectrum Art Theater presented by the Better Days Foundation, and the debut of the Spectrum Taste District. One of the most talked-about moments of the fair was the unveiling of the Ozzy Osbourne Collection in collaboration with Save the Chimps, which attracted international media attention.
Red Dot Miami welcomed visitors with immersive visual installations and gallery-driven presentations. Highlights included Tony Pharo’s Unraveled Youth solo exhibition at End to End Gallery, large-scale mixed-media works at Gebhardt Gallery, and the interactive Do Not Disturb installation by K Art Projects USA. The Estrella Galicia Lounge served as a central gathering point for collectors throughout the week.
Both fairs reported strong sales activity, with galleries and artists noting multiple placements, commissions, and new collector relationships. Returning and first-time exhibitors alike cited meaningful engagement and sustained interest throughout the five-day event.
Awards were presented across both fairs recognizing standout artists, galleries, booth design, sculpture, and international participation, underscoring the breadth and diversity of work on view.
Spectrum Miami and Red Dot Miami will return to the Mana Wynwood Convention Center from December 2 through December 6, 2026. Updates and future announcements are shared via the official Redwood Art Group platforms.
