Step into a world where art and luxury collide at the stunning @Sandton Hotel. Until December 31, 2024, visitors to the hotel can experience the powerful and thought-provoking sculpture exhibition, “Take a Stand”, which is part of the renowned Rooftop XI series by The Viewing Room Gallery. Curated by the talented duo, Sammy Muller and Kutlwano Monyai, this year’s instalment invites guests to explore the theme of standing up—whether it’s for a cause, individuality, or simply the act of existing in the world with purpose and conviction.
What makes this exhibition truly unique is how it merges the indoor and outdoor spaces of the @Sandton Hotel, transforming the bustling piazza and chic hotel interior into an artistic wonderland. Each sculpture plays off the surrounding décor, enhancing the sleek, contemporary ambiance of the hotel. As you wander through the thoughtfully curated spaces, you’ll discover a seamless blend of art and architecture that invites deeper reflection on the resilience and beauty of the human experience.
A Synergy of Art and Luxury
“This exhibition represents the perfect synergy of art and the upmarket experience we pride ourselves on at @Sandton Hotel. It’s a wonderful opportunity for our guests to view and even purchase world-class art, all while enjoying the relaxed and luxurious setting our hotel offers,” said @Sandton Hotel’s General Manager, Anthony Batistich. “We’re especially excited about the innovative use of QR codes, allowing visitors to scan each piece and instantly learn more about the artist and the sculpture. It’s a way to make art more accessible and engaging in today’s digital world.”
