Loews Miami Beach Hotel Art Collective, An Art Basel Experience

Annabella Pardo

Art and design fuse with movement, music and libations over Art Basel at this year’s Loews Miami Beach Hotel Art Collective. The renowned South Beach resort, home to an expansive collection of multi-medium works of art, brings together artists and experiences for unique activations that capture the spirit of Art Basel and Miami Beach.  

 As part of this year’s collective, Loews Miami Beach Hotel welcomes immersive action painter and movement artist, Annika Rhea as official Artist in Residence. Based in Brooklyn, Annika is the creator of BODY MEDIUM, a painting technique that utilizes the body in motion as a painting tool. Merging the worlds of visual art, performance art and film, she has worked with musicians and videographers worldwide to create her body of work. Annika performs at art fairs such as Bushwick Open Studios and Art With Me, and has exhibited work in Box Factory Gallery, Revelation Gallery and Bogart House.

 From December 1-5, Annika Rhea will showcase her work throughout the property, in addition to performing her BODY MEDIUM immersive action painting on December 3 and 4 in the hotel’s main lobby.

As official host hotel for SCOPE Miami Beach, visitors will get a preview of what to expect at the fair with the iconic work of Colombian sculptor Rodrigo Sanchez. In his elegant use of negative space, Sanchez makes the absence of geometric form one of the strengths of his oeuvre by allowing the spectator a more intimate interaction. His sculptures have been exhibited worldwide including Colombia, South Africa, Egypt, Kenya, Lebanon and the US.

Additional events include the hotel’s Team Member Art Showcase, featuring original works by Loews Miami’s talented staff, a Meet the Artist moment with Derek Gores, Exhale South Beach Spa’s The Art of Abs and a pop up retail experience by Maryjane Claverol.

To close out Miami Art Week, BACARDÍ made its return to the 305 to hold Rum Room: Miami – the third iteration of five national events curated by the BACARDÍ Rum Society, an exclusive group of distinguished celebrity rum enthusiasts and ambassadors. Grammy Award-winning producer and longtime brand collaborator Swizz Beatz helped BACARDÍ conceptualize and bring the Rum Room to life, and further educate consumers on the versatility of rum. The iconic rum brand took over Faena Forum in Miami Beach for the second year in a row – transforming it into a premium rum oasis, with dedicated rooms championing each of the aged rum expressions, comprised of BACARDÍ Añejo Cuatro, BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho and BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Diez.

Serving as a living, breathing world of rum, the BACARDÍ Rum Room created an evening of excitement and discovery that showcased the brand’s culture, diverse flavor profile and set the rum standard. As guests entered the space, they were whisked on a journey of rum exploration and guided from the downstairs Diez speakeasy, where guests were treated to an intimate Diez tasting experience in the Atrium of Faena Forum to the upstairs Ocho and Cuatro rooms featuring an array of cocktails and interactive rum components. For the first time ever – guests during the preview hour were treated to a tasting of the new BACARDÍ Gran Reserva Especial, aged 16 years under the Caribbean sun, and available exclusively at global travel retail.
