Ace Artist in Residence — Janie Korn at Ace Hotel Brooklyn

  • - |
  • | Ace Hotel Brooklyn

Ace Artist in Residence is the embodiment of our deep conviction that artists deliver us a critical lens through which to understand the world and ourselves. Through the program, we turn our rooms into studio spaces and invite arts organizations to take residency at the hotel and present work in The Gallery. Read all about our past residencies here.

Ace Hotel Brooklyn’s partner, the multidisciplinary studio FORT MAKERS, connects creatives across disciplinary boundaries including contemporary art, furniture, stage and product design. In searching for a curated commonality across practices, FORT MAKERS creates space to discover the unexpected.

This October, they invite the interdisciplinary artist Janie Korn. living between London, Los Angeles and New York. Her current body of work focuses on object permanence through the use of ephemeral materials. Her magic candles are hand-sculpted through a process of building up and chiseling down wax, and finished by painting the pieces in a molten state. She invites viewers to imagine the pieces glowing, as if providing illumination and kinetic force to the space. Korn will be in residence during the month of October 2023 and will be showcasing her work at Ace Brooklyn from November 2023 – January 2024. 

Residency: October 1- October 31 
Exhibition: November – January 2024

"The House, It’s Dreaming!" Exhibition by Lina Sun Park - Opening Party with Byline at Gallery

Two celebrations in one and a night under the spell of beauty: join us on December 11th for Lina Sun Park’s exhibition opening and Byline’s release party.   In “The House, It’s Dreaming!”, Lina transforms quotidian materials into quietly grand sculptures, elevating the overlooked to new heights of reverence and intimacy. Echoing some of those themes, Byline’s latest issue is an encapsulation of modern beauty, the internet’s impact on aesthetics, and the meaning of self perception. This residency is a…
