Danzas official logistics partner of Art Basel Miami Beach 2001
As sponsor of the "Art Positions" sector, Danzas will also play a prominent
part in the new art exhibition in Miami Beach
Basel, Switzerland (September 6, 2001) -- Danzas has been appointed exclusive logistics
partner of Art Basel Miami Beach, an exhibition being held for the first time
from December 13 to 16, 2001. Danzas will handle transportation of all stand
and decoration material for the show. Following a whole year of preparation,
this material will leave the Basel exhibition center in big ocean freight
containers at mid-October and start its journey to the Convention Center in
Miami Beach. After the freight is unloaded there, the empty containers will be
set up along the fabulous beach in Miami Beach's Collins Park and transformed
into a veritable art village. Danzas will place this mobile exhibition space
at the disposal of about twenty young, up-and-coming gallery owners as a
highly original exhibition platform for the show's "Art Positions" sector.
This sector is being sponsored by the Danzas Group.
Danzas' engagement at Art Basel Miami Beach is hardly accidental. In fact,
there are a number of astounding parallels between Danzas and Art Basel Miami
Beach: deep roots in the city of Basel, a global orientation, and the desire
of Art Basel to gain a stronger foothold in North America with this new
Florida exhibition. All of which makes the selection of the shipping
containers as exhibition pavilion and symbolic meeting place of the two
enterprises absolutely ideal.
As the official logistics partner of Art Basel Miami Beach, Danzas gains yet
another opportunity to demonstrate its ability to deal with the complexities
of exhibition logistics, something it has been doing for years. By tailoring
its services precisely to the particular needs of the organizers and
exhibitors as well as to the local situation, Danzas has earned a very strong
reputation in this field. The company has served as the regular logistics
partner of countless exhibition organizations in Europe and the entire world
for the past forty years.
