Children’s Museum of the Arts Presents: LITTLE ARTISTS — an exhibition by Justin Teodoro
- 3:01 am - 12:59 pm | Tuesday September 20, 2022
- Gallery | Ace Hotel Brooklyn
Children’s Museum of the Arts is pleased to present selected works from its Permanent Collection curated by artist, illustrator, and designer Justin Teodoro in the Gallery at Ace Hotel Brooklyn. The installation will be on view to the public July 7 – September 29.
“I’ve always been struck by Keith Haring’s famous quote, “Children know something that most people have forgotten,” said Teodoro. When Children’s Museum of the Arts approached me about this special opportunity I knew I wanted to tap into that free spirit that’s present in each and every work in their permanent collection of over 2,000 artworks created by children over the last century.”
The presentation will include an intimate selection of artworks that aspires to encourage the public to rediscover their love and joy in making art without judgment. To celebrate the opening of the installation, CMA and Ace Hotel Brooklyn will be hosting a cocktail reception on July 7th from 6-8 pm

EXHIBITION: ARATA HIGUCHI at Ace Hotel Kyoto
今回のギャラリー展示のテーマは「花暦」。 樋口さん曰く 「ホテルという宿泊施設を出発点において考えてみようと思い、ホテル、京都、旅行、と連想を続けていくうちに、「四季折々の京都を旅行する」というテーマにいたり、制作に取り掛かることにしました。季節の移り変わりをその時々の花の連作であらわし、その表現方法を京都で育まれた日本の画から採り入れました。全作品を通して画の中にはある生物を描いています。その生物とはカメレオンなのですが、私は普段、人の喜怒哀楽をカメレオンという形を通して表現しています。今回彼らには四季の京都を感じる心を表してもらっています。エースホテルに宿泊される皆様の旅もまた心豊かなものとなりますよう、願いを込めて作品を描かせていただきました。」
