Who's the big winner at this year Art Basel Miami Beach? Instagram. Among the most notable shots from last night's pic feeds was a live tiger, sleeping in a steel cage at the Le Pompon pop-club at Hotel Victor.

As one commenter wrote, "maybe the big cat is just a lover of horrendous art, cocaine, and self-important people who love to party."

The party continues Friday with a design talk by Pharrell Williams, smaller and rawer fairs Seven and Fountain, and a slew of nightlife events: Chromatics play starry-skied Gusman, curious crooner Daniel Johnston at Grand Central, and a Hurricane Sandy Relief concert with Animal Collective.
