Verge Art Fair - Coming to Miami

A new fair coming to Miami's Catalina Hotel. Well, maybe not new, perhaps rebranded. Some quick sleuthing uncovered that the Bridge Art Fair web site is now the Verge web site. Any change in exhibitors is unclear.

From Verge:
THE DESTINATION FOR EMERGING ART ON MIAMI BEACH
This December during Art Basel Miami Beach, the inaugural Verge Art Fair will premier at the Catalina Hotel and Beach Club on Collins Avenue. Verge will advance the tradition of the Catalina Hotel as an oasis only steps away from hustle and bustle of the ABMB art market, providing the only show in Miami with a focus solely on emerging art. Located between the Miami Convention Center and the Art Positions converted shipping containers, Verge will enjoy the central position on Collins Avenue. OVER 12,000 visitors over the last three years have attended this must-see event destination on South Beach, where enterprising young galleries have raised the visibility and established the starting provenance of their artists over an intense four days of international attention by a never-ending stream of art lovers, curators, collectors, and press. Adjorn after closing time to the Red Bar at the Catalina for a Happy Hour from 7pm for complimentary mixed drinks, to the rooftop pool, or cross the street for an evening with collectors at the scenic Delano.
