With the countdown to Art Basel Miami Beach begun, we're checking in on the area's artists, collectors, and institutions as featured in the BMW Art Guide by Independent Collectors. The de la Cruz Collection, since its inception, has always sought to use art as a means of creating educational opportunities for both students of art and for the public at large. Founded by Rosa and Carlos de la Cruz in 2009, The De La Cruz Collection occupies a breathtaking 30,000 square foot modernist construction in Miami's Design District. As it is throughout the rest of the year, the De La Cruz Collection is free to visit during Miami Art Week. The De La Cruz Collection was originally profiled for the BMW Art Guide by William Kherbeck.
