Art Basel is delighted to share first details of its next iteration of the Art Basel Shop, a novel concept store showcasing bespoke lifestyle and heritage products encapsulating and celebrating the Art Basel experience. Taking place in conjunction with Art Basel Miami Beach, whose Global Lead Partner is UBS, from December 4-8, 2024 at the Miami Beach Convention Center (MBCC), this third edition will be the largest to date, after successful editions in Basel and Paris earlier this year. At the MBCC, more than 2000 square feet will be dedicated to showcasing the Art Basel Shop's exciting range of products, from Art Basel's own AB by Art Basel and AB by Artist lines – enriched with new items designed specifically for its Miami Beach show – to collectibles and heirlooms by some of today's most dynamic brands and publishers, realized in collaboration with artists and paying homage to their work.
Curated by Parisian creative luminary Sarah Andelman, the Art Basel Shop's ambitious third outing underscores Art Basel's commitment to offering its growing audience new and innovative ways to both engage with the brand's rich identity, as well as with Modern and contemporary art at large. Boasting three distinct locations across the MBCC's West Lobby, Grand Ballroom, and East Lobby – and hence, more visibility and presence than ever before – this edition has been conceived as an integral part of the Art Basel Miami Beach show experience. The Art Basel Shop at Art Basel Miami Beach will be freely accessible to the public; no ticket to the show will be required to access it.

Highlights include:
• A collaboration with Brazilian artist Paulo Nimer Pjota for the Art Basel Shop's signature AB by Artist line of products. Known primarily for poetic canvases exuding raw energy, Nimer Pjota has conceived a bespoke capsule collection that includes, among others, three tie-dye T-shirts, a tote-bag, two hats, and a notebook featuring a lush motif that depicts hybrid, mystical beings in a lush scenery. The artist's practice explores the intersections between historical, pop-cultural, and everyday artifacts and concepts. Nimer Pjota will be signing his products on Thursday, December 5 at 2pm at the Art Basel Shop's Grand Ballroom location. He is represented by galleries Mendes Wood DM, Francois Ghebaly, and Maureen Paley.
• The introduction of a new AB by Art Basel Heritage line, featuring a variation of the Art Basel logo taken from the cover of the show's 1994 catalog. This playful version of the brand's iconic logo spells out the word 'Party', echoing the festive spirit for which Art Basel Miami Beach has come to be known. In addition to accessories such as tote bags and apparel, which will newly be available in pink and mint green, this AB by Art Basel Heritage line will include a series of Miami-Beach-themed products, including a beach towel, a deck of playing cards, golf balls, a frisbee, and a windshield sun shade.

Notably, a version of the official Art Basel uniforms, designed by GOAT in collaboration with a to- be-revealed artist, will be available for the first time at the Art Basel Shop. Further products conceived by artists include Christmas ornaments hand-painted by British artists Kaye Donachie and Sola Olulode, in collaboration with House of Voltaire; a series of posters by digital artist Tyler Hobbs, realized in collaboration with Iconic Moments and including a signed limited edition; sunglasses designed by Italian artist Paola Pivi,produced by Lizworks as part of their “Seeing The World Through Artists’ Eyes” project; and several editions by American artist Kenny Scharf.
• A curated selection of artist monographs, zines, editions, and publications featuring the work of prominent 20th-century and contemporary artists, including Calida Rawles, José Parlà, CryptoPunks, KAWS, and Peter Halley, among others.
Furthermore, the third edition of the Art Basel Shop will be accompanied by a robust program of book signings, artists meet-and-greets, and activations. The full schedule of events will be available soon on artbasel.com/events.
