There are number of very interesting, modern pieces here, including paint, sculptures, and food--…read moreyes, food. One piece is completely comprised of cheese, cold cuts, and of the like. Another piece is made of cookies. You can truly never go hungry here. Bear in mind, in order to access this museum room, one must enter a residential-looking building, climb a short ladder of stairs, and make his way into the room, where one will be greeted by a worker, who will enlighten you with upcoming exhibitions or events in the area. Needless to say, my experience here has been rather short, though insightful.

We were introduced to this gallery a few years ago, and have watched them grow- from a gallery…read morespace standpoint, and from an artist standpoint. Their current space on Miracle Mile is impressive! It is situated right in the heart of Coral Gables, and has LOTS of viewing space for the various exhibitions they hold. What is even more impressive is the quality of artists they represent- from some of the most established Cuban artists (Bedia, et al), to some of the hottest emerging hyper-realist artists (Mederos, et al). The hospitality throughout the gallery is unmatched. From insight on the art & artists, to behind the scenes viewings of works in progress (including some amazing works from artist Conde himself!), you are made to feel at home at Conde Contemporary! So whether you are a high-end collector looking for some of the hottest emerging & established artists, or are thinking of purchasing your first piece of art (believe me- they have artwork for EVERY budget), I highly recommend a trip to Conde Contemporary!

Pretty cool old place..one of the few - if not the only - true artist loft in Miami…read more I remember seeing this place from I95and thinking it was a haunted house. I got an evite for an opening event at Basel and found it wasn't. Although off the beaten path from the traditional gallery walk, it can make a walk all its own. There are two stories of artists there, a lot of whom you can talk to about their work, including my personal favorite - Daniel Fila, the creator of the "J-Lo Mural" off 36th & Biscayne. (If you've driven by you know what I'm talking about) Add to that the whole old-building ambiance and the chance to see old structure (huge bolted trusses and expose I-beams) and you're in heaven as a true art lover. Oh, and by the way, a couple of the artists have said that it is haunted ;).

The decor is pretty awesome, I'll include some pics that I snapped. The wine and apps were delicious . The Charcuterie board is surprisingly large, not the tiny boards you see in other restaurants.

The friendliest art gallery…read more Virginia Miller opened her first gallery in 1974 in Coconut Grove with at first mostly local art but soon expanded to Cuban, Latin American and even some Chinese artist. She moved her gallery to Coral Gables in the early 80's and was a major factor in starting the first monthly gallery nights in greater Miami. That's right folks, Wynwood didn't start shyt. Virginia is extremely approachable as is her husband and they usually have the artist in house to answer any and all questions. The latest artist that was showing here was Leslie Lew. She shared with the Yibbies a story behind a painting she did in the early 80's while she lived above a botanica on Broadway. Let me repeat that. A botanica I'm the middle of Manhattan on Broadway. Times have changed. If you do happen to come by on a First Friday know that they will have some kind if white wine, never red. Red spills where you least expect it. They also let you use their bathroom! Like I said "the friendliest gallery." Stop by and say hi
