Whether crooning about god and money as a pomaded 50s-style singer or painting portrait after portrait of a semi-nude beer-swiller at the 2009 Venice Biennale, Ragnar Kjartansson is the rare kind of artist who can do whatever he wants—pretty much anything, really—and turn it into a masterwork of his absurdly Romantic worldview. This talent will be in evidence during Art Basel Miami Beach this year when a film of his award-winning 2011 Performa performance piece Bliss, a 12-hour loop of the final aria from Mozart’s Marriage of Figaro, is screened in its entirety from 6 p.m. Friday to 6 a.m. Saturday outside Miami’s New World Center.
