Chambers

The Chambers hotel, a gem in the heart of downtown Minneapolis.
Somehow, someone with vision and a taste for contemporary art and design developed a hotel/gallery that doesn't disappoint. It's hallways, lobbies, and even the fire exits are adorned with art from artist of all types of backgrounds and cultures. Two of the pieces that most gave me pleasure were from Yasumasa Morimura and Evan Penny. Morimura's piece, a depiction of consumerism and this idea of branding was intriguing. Penny's piece, a skewed face mounted on the wall had such detail it felt alive. The trip to The Chambers was quite enlightening an enjoyable.
