SpringHill Hosts Interactive Miami Art Basel Showcase, ‘PLEASE DO TOUCH THE ART’
SpringHill, the creative and entertainment brand founded by LeBron James and Maverick Carter, teamed up with Billionaire Boys Club for an interactive showcase during the 2023 Miami Art Basel weekend. PLEASE DO TOUCH THE ART welcomed guests to engage with visual art from a diverse pool of artists like Hebru Brantley and more.
In a celebration of creative expression, the Friday night (Dec.8) event drew an impressive crowd. Art enthusiasts and attendees included Savannah James, former NFL wide receiver Andrew Hawkins, international DJ Jae Murphy, rapper-singer SAINt JHN, The Shop co-creator Paul Rivera, music executive Lex Borrero, political commentator and television personality Dr. Wendy Osefo, her husband, attorney Eddie Osefo, and others.
PLEASE DO TOUCH THE ART celebrated the launch of SpringHill’s zine, “The Program Vol. 2,” which rejects formulaic creativity by offering the opportunity to interact with the art up close through in-person activations by the zine’s creative star. With Brantley as contributing editor, the zine evolved from his experience at The Program Vol. 1 at SpringHill’s Art Basel event in 2022.
Activations included A Touch of SSSkin: An up-close-and-personal look at Elle Barbeito’s process of using python skins to create art, You are the Visual: An immersive photography experience where guests see themselves portrayed through the lens of photographer Braylen Dixon, and Art & Sound: A special DJ set by multidisciplinary artist Dom McLennon.
A surprise performance from Miami native Rick Ross elevated the night, adding an additional form of art for excited patrons to admire. Take a look inside PLEASE DO TOUCH THE ART showcase below.
