PooL Art Fair Miami Beach 7, 8 & 9 December 2012 Inspired by the French tradition of Artists Fairs, starting from the famous 1863 Courbet's Salon des Independants, (AKA Salon des Refusés) PooL is the premiere fair in the US dedicated to unrepresented artists. The first edition took place in 2000 under the title: New York Independent Art Fair.

Our current show is: '''PooL Art Fair Miami Beach 7, 8 & 9 December 2012''' '''Sky House Marquis 1100 Biscayne Blvd., Miami, FL 33132 December 7, 8 & 9, 2012'''

The simple, modest approach of the PooL Art Fair offers an exciting alternative to the "Art Fair" experience for dealers and collectors as well as the general public. PooL's main purpose is to create a meeting ground for outstanding unrepresented artists and the large public of contemporary art professionals. The fair serves as an invaluable resource for the artistic community and the general public.

As the fairs success continues to grow and the platform evolves we now also accept applications from Contemporary Art Dealers, Emerging Galleries, Curators and Non-Profit Organizations. Artists from these groups shall remain open to working with other art professionals.
