Hotel des Arts | San Francisco

In June 2004, START SOMA launched an art gallery in
HOTEL DES ARTS - a boutique 51 room art hotel
in the heart of Union Square.
The San Francisco Examiner included a nice
feature story on our inaugural opening. According to the
article, San Francisco's first art hotel is a 'slick, gallery-type
space showcasing the talents of local emerging artists', notable
for its focus on 'edgy, affordable, original art'.

With our series of PAINTED ROOMS
art shows, we extended the vision of the
ART HOTEL pretty dramatically.
The 'concept' for these shows is decidedly straightforward
- we simply invited some of our favorite emerging
artists in the world to paint some hotel rooms.
Floor to ceiling, and pretty much everything in between
- with full autonomy to do whatever they wanted. |
