You don't really need an excuse to visit the hip grandeur that is the Gladstone Hotel or any of its fine drinking and dining establishments but you might want to make a special point of visiting Parkdale's grande old dame this weekend for Come Up To My Room, an immersive art and design experience.
Come Up To My Room takes over parts of four floors of the hotel, featuring the work of both emerging and established artists, designers and collectives for a show that is fun and interactive.
Some of the highlights:
Virginiga Melnyk's fabulous tetrahedral sculptures in some of the open spaces of the hotel. They use reflective fabrics and nest along the ceilings.
Philaphobia, where you can explore nooks and crannies and you are invited to add to a modular sculpture.
The bright, beautiful reimagined objects of Carl&Rose, the brainchild of Suzanne Carlsen and Noah Rosen, award-winning artists who add texture, colour and fun to fans, vases, lamps and other household objects.
Equivalents, a lovely mixed media installation by Susan Dobson that immerses you in the slow movement of the clouds and sky.
Shelter Bay, a collection of stylish pendant lights by Rob Southcott and Sarah Cooper.
Style & Profile, artist Chinedu Ukabam's takeover of the bathroom. Inspired by his Nigerian roots, he highlights the crucial role of the African barber in shaping identity with playful touches like glasses that let you see "correctly" and looping African movies.
The Save Ferris Room - a loving recreation of Ferris Bueller's bedroom.
