December 8, 2006 at 1:27 PM | by | Comments (0)

In case you haven't been reading this week, Art Basel has landed in Miami this weekend and the hotel scene is blowing up with parties and art showings galore.

We just thought we would run down (again) what's happening at some South Beach hotels tonight.

· Raleigh Hotel: A screening of "Coven" by Arden Wohl hosted by Leelee Sobieski, Melissa Bent, Mirabelle Marden, Stella Schnabel, and Yvonne Force.
· In the hotel's Oasis, Andre Balazs will be on hand for the reception and book signing by author Jack Pierson and his latest mongraph Jack Pierson Desire/Despair.

· The Marlin Hotel: Budweiser Select will be hosting its own Art Basel party here today and tomorrow from 12 to 6pm featuring artist Steve Keene (pictured above in action) who will be live painting as Budweiser Select girls prance around.

· The Catalina Hotel: All of the hotel rooms have been transformed into mini-art galleries for the entire weekend, and the hotel will be hosting some after-parties.

· The Delano Hotel: The Morgans Hotel Group and Art Basel will be celebrating the re-release of the classic 1969 biker flick, Easy Rider with Dennis Hopper hosting the invitation-only dinner (sorry) for 100 people.

Got that all down? And since we can't make it to this art prom, remember to send us any reports or photos from the weekend. Ahem...especially photos.
