With the largest art fair in the United States starting tomorrow in Miami, preparations for Art Basel MIA 2010 are in the works. Mr Brainwash has yet to announce to his collectors what his involvement in this year’s Floridian fair, but from the invitation to “The Art of Ping Pong” at the Delano Hotel – it is looking like paddles will be necessary.

SPiN Galactic, Susan Sarandon, the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami, and a collection of aficionados from the worlds of art and music will be hosting a ping pong event. “The Art of Ping Pong” will be a tournament for artists, spinsters (DJs), and ping pong fans held poolside at Miami Beach’s Water Salon. The event will include the releasing of a ping pong table created by Tom Burr.

Mr Brainwash is unquestionably responsible for the invitation design fitting his iconic Chaplin character with a ping pong paddle in hand. More news to follow on Mr Brainwash and his involvement in the fair. Mr Brainwash ping pong scores to follow.
