The new Four Seasons Hotel in Downtown Denver has nearly 1,200 pieces of contemporary art. Included in this amazing art collection is work by Translations Gallery artist Rachel Darnell. The artist was commissioned to complete two 54" x 54" pieces for the space outside of the Ballroom. She worked off of an existing piece entitled Mystic Mahogany (shown above). The process for this piece includes torn strips of canvas reassembled and painted with silver leaf. Her pieces are large, impressive, and will add contemporary glam to the ballroom space.
Denver Magazine recently wrote about the new art collection in their August 2010 issue, but did not mention Darnell because she is from New Mexico, not Colorado. Read the article here.
You can view more of Rachel Darnell's work at Translations Gallery, a Denver Art Gallery located only blocks from the Four Seasons or by visiting their website.
