"Though Art Basel is over, its shine is lasting, exposing A-list artists such as Hadid to South Florida, opening the door for future projects. Had Hadid's work not been in Miami and been so warmly received, the city may not have made her wish list. Hadid's wish to put her imprint on Miami's skyline is likely to be fulfilled even though there are no projects yet on the table.

Hadid is a blur of urban black, and at her Art Basel project she seemed especially oblivious to the watchers wading through the Moore atrium early one afternoon. They point and whisper because somebody famous and brilliant and coy has entered the place."
