Our favorite celebrities have made their way down to Miami this week for some good weather, and great art at 2011 Miami Art Basel.

For the occasion, Russell Simmons and his artist brother Danny Simmons’ Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation hosted a nationwide search to find the next big names in both urban photography and multi-media art.

We also spotted songbirds Janelle Monae and Solange Knowles.

Take a look at who else was in Miami for the love of art.
