Best Art Destinations in 2019

Miami, USA

Teeming with museums, private collectors and a vibrant graffiti culture, Miami is one of North America’s prime art destinations. Be sure to swing by the Wynwood Art District. And if possible, plan your tour around Miami Basel, one of the world’s premiere artistic biennials.

Sao Paulo, Brazil

Sao Paulo is a concrete jungle housing one of the world’s best under-the-radar art scenes. The museums are exceptional, while the graffiti is politically charged.

Berlin, Germany

While it’s no hidden gem, the lasting impact this international destination has had on the world’s leading artists is undeniable. Book a Berlin Art Tour for a digestible introduction to the city’s booming exhibitions. If you’re brave enough to tackle the city’s exhausting scene on your own, start your adventure on Museum Island.

Marfa City, USA

American minimalist Donald Judd purchased acres of land in relatively unknown Marfa, Texas, to house his work. His interest in the otherwise unimportant city has transformed it into a top-tier destination for in-the-know patrons.

Lisbon, Portugal

What was once an up-and-coming art destination is now a buzzing tourist mecca. Poke your head into the plentiful pop-up galleries, appreciate the scintillating street art and spend a few hours perusing the city’s renowned museums, such as the Museum of Art & Technology.

Other Rising Art Destinations…

Cleveland, USA – Do not miss Cleveland’s surprisingly impressive Museum of Art.

Pittsburgh, USACarnagie Museum of Art is an extraordinary gallery worth your time.
