To preserve the integrity of creative works by local artists during Art Basel by providing free display space without restrictions

Twenty Twenty Projects is an alternative exhibition space located in Miami´s Wynwood arts district that was created to fuel the careers of local emerging artists who have chosen to work outside of the traditional gallery system. Since its founding by Scott Murray in 2006, the gallery has hosted 18 shows and has been written about in publications such as the New York Times, Art Papers, ArtUS and The Miami Herald. Murray earned his high school diploma from New World School of the Arts in 1998 and his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2002, where he worked for the Meyerhoff Gallery. After moving back to Miami, Murray worked for the Fredric Snitzer Gallery as well as the Kevin Bruk gallery before starting Twenty Twenty.
