Arts Program

With unprecedented support for the Arts in Melbourne, Sofitel Melbourne On Collins has shared hundreds of solo exhibitions with introductions and promotion to thousands of guests, visitors and the wider public with its widely acclaimed Visual Arts Program. A living art gallery that reinvents itself with each of the sixteen major Art exhibitions held each year in the hotel’s three public exhibition spaces, Sofitel Melbourne On Collins reflects an ever-changing landscape of scope, texture and colour.
 
These arts exhibitions are staged with assistance of leading Arts Consultants, Global Art Projects.
 
ART EXHIBITIONS
Anna White – Neighbourhood, 2018
2 October 2018 – 4 February 2019, The Lobby – Level 1
New photogaphic works by Melbourne artist Anna White.
Images celebrating neighbourhood, the unique and quirky, seen by chance. Photographs taken in Melbourne are juxtaposed against others shot in Java. A façade that looks like a stage set seen in Jogjakarta is paired with a psychedelic painted door shot in Fitzroy. A green swan planter spotted in Northcote is juxtaposed against a verandah located in a village in East Java.
 
Louise Forthun – AM/PM, 2018
21 September 2018 – 4 February 2019, Sofi’s Lounge – Level 1
The exhibition will feature a stunning new panorama of Melbourne constructed by the artist, using hand-cut stencils and acrylic spray paint. AM/PM will also include works on paper each depicting abstracted fragments of the city as it shifts and changes as a living organism.
