Opening day for Miami Art Week saw a cavalcade of black Uber SUVs and sneaker-clad art lovers flocking to VIP openings at popular fairs on both sides of Biscayne Bay, including UNTITLED and Design Miami in Miami Beach, and Art Miami and NADA on the mainland.

Take a look at some of the VIP openings at Miami area fairs.

John McCarthy

John F. McCarthy is a veteran journalist in the Caribbean, writing from the "Decision Space" where survival meets the surreal. His reporting steel was tempered by a lineage of legendary editors and broadcasters, including Ed Wynn Brant (The Bomb), Owen Eschenroder (Ann Arbor News), Lynelle Emanuel (BVI Beacon), and Charles Thanas (WSVI-TV). Alongside longtime colleague Kenneth C. "Casey" Clark, McCarthy has navigated the front lines of the territory’s history—from the 1997 volcanic "snow" to every major hurricane since Hugo. Known for leaning out of doorless helicopters to capture the "money shot," McCarthy now edits the V.I. Free Press, providing the essential link between the island's colonial past and its SpaceX future.
