Victor Castillo - this Saturday at Helium Cowboy in Germany

This is the last weekend before most of the major galleries in the art world descend upon Miami during Art Basel week where well over 20 art fairs will play host to almost 1,000 international galleries. Despite this fact, there are still a few noteworthy shows going off around the world this weekend we wanted to point out.

In addition to all the fairs down in Miami next week, there will also be a number of noteworthy special events taking place this year. All in all, it’s going to be a big challenge for any one person to take in all the action and events, but rest assured the AM team will be out in force in Miami next week in an effort to capture as much of the action as humanly possible. Look for a condensed road map of all the fairs and special events to hit up while in Miami to be posted here soon. In the meantime, check out the shows going off around the world this weekend after the jump.
