Dále Zine and Shepard Fairey’s Los Angeles–based gallery, Subliminal Projects, are pleased to present HANDLE WITH CARE, a co-curated group exhibition opening at Dále Zine’s flagship store in the Miami Design District during Art Week /Art Basel Miami 2025.
Rooted in DIY publishing, cultural activism, and independent art scenes, Dále and Subliminal have grown from grassroots origins into platforms for artists to create and connect. Founded in 2009 in Miami, Dále Zine began as a collaborative zine project and has grown into an independent publisher and community art hub. Subliminal Projects, established by artist Shepard Fairey in 1996, emerged from skateboard culture and has since developed into an established gallery presenting diverse, artist-driven exhibitions. Both Dále and Subliminal operate outside conventional commercial gallery models, providing a vital discourse in a shifting art ecosystem.
HANDLE WITH CARE gestures toward the practical and the conceptual—bringing together a dynamic group of artists, including longtime collaborators and new voices from their extended creative networks, to offer a soft landing in a time of collective unrest. The collaboration is a celebration of community and the cultural intersections defining the contemporary art landscape.
The opening reception will take place on Tuesday, December 2, from 5–9pm, featuring music, drinks, live screen printing provided by Obey Clothing, and a special performance by Poncili Creación at 8pm.
