NAFTA Miami

First run starring Sam Ashford, Dean Kissick, Ala Dehghan, James Shaeffer, Pujan Karambeigi, Micaela Carolan at Jones Beach for the 17th edition of Miami Art Basel.

God bless the dealers: NAFTA Miami and subsequent editions NAFTA Contemporary take place at a fictional art fair, post-vibe shift. A "very contemporary" (read: last minute) revival of the 1984 Pulitzer play Glengarry, Glenn Ross, lines are lifted from art world press releases and fed through a python algorithm that matches the syntax of the original play .
