Beautiful, minimal stairwell…the predictable approach would have been to hang a painting on the back wall. The light well presented a special challenge as most works of art would fade. Nancy Rubin’s Drawings is made of graphite on torn paper. The artist re-configured this existing piece specifically for the client’s space.
Pae White (Glass Mobile), 2009
This glass ‘mobile’ by internationally known artist Pae White turns this tall, narrow, yet light-filled stairwell to life. Taking advantage of the height and the light, the piece turns the whole space into a work of art.
Paul Villinski, Alchemy (second iteration), 2010
Large, lofty space…this kinetic installation made of hand-cut aluminum butterflies draws your eye across the room.
Rebecca Szeto (untitled), 2006
Art over the fireplace tends to be predictably a painting in a frame. We are always concerned about the condition of works over fireplaces…over time, smoke can damage art. Here the client commissioned artist Rebecca Szeto to create an installation made of steel wool.
