art not art: miami edition 2011

1.

Ok,
this is LONG overdue,
but here is my Miami / Art Basel 
"Art? not Art?" edition.
(There are a handful from other fairs,
but most came from the mothership.)
So for those of you that know the drill,
get to work.
For those of you that don't,
you have to decide whether or not
each picture is of a piece of art
or not.
Good luck, 
and the answers are
at the bottom of the page.

Ok,
how do you think you did?
Please let me know by leaving a comment.
Thanks!
Also,
If the piece did not have a 
wall label,
I didn't ask for the artist's name,
I am not a journalist,
only a blogger,
so in those cases, 
I listed the gallery's name only.
