Anticipated co-host Marina Abramovic never made it to Miami for the screening of Marco Brambilla's Evolution, but there were plenty of other attractions. For his part, Brambilla has had a pretty satisfactory Basel thanks to his brand new works at the W South Beach, and the strong reception to Evolution at the Standard Spa. The artist’s best friend Andre Balazs and Jefferson Hack hosted guests like Michael Stipe, Francisco Costa, and tattoo maestro Scott Campbell in watching a ten minute, Romeo & Juliet music infused 3D showcase. And who provided the special 3D glasses? That would be Armani, of course.

Just in case you thought Brits were a bit unrepresented at this year’s Basel, along came Pringle of Scotland and Serpentine Gallery dinner closing the 195 Collaborations project. Oscar winner Tilda Swinton flew in to Miami for the first time for the big event at The Webster, which was overflowing with A-list designers, and other fine faces that lit up this year’s festivities. Anniversary Alert: The Webster’s Laure Heriard Dubreuil and Aaron Young who celebrated their two years together in between all the party hype Notable diners: Ryan McGinley, Ryan MacNamara, Klaus Biesenbach, Nadja Swarovski, Renzo Rosso, Viktor & Rolf, and Hans-Ulrich Obrist Biggest multitaskers: V’s Cecilia Dean and James Kaliardos who dined at The Webster before hosting a bash of their own at the W Quote of the night: “I wish I could stay in Miami a bit longer, but a plane awaits and it’s taking me to snowy Scotland. It’s like Russia over there!”  Tilda Swinton. [nggallery id=9]
