Art in the Hotel
City Inn Westminster has specially commissioned contemporary artwork from selected artists displayed throughout the hotel and presents an annual programme of rolling art exhibitions.City Inn and corbettPROJECTS present Tom Leighton - Urbo Vido. The title of the exhibition translates from Esperanto as 'city view' and Leighton presents a collection of new images based on the urban landscape of Barcelona, Berlin, London and Japan.
Digital montage allows Leighton to present a vision of a metropolis which is recognisable yet unsettling displaced from reality.

City Inn and corbettPROJECTS also present a Graduate Painting and Drawing exhibition featuring the work of emerging talent from the UK's leading art schools. Specially selected from Camberwell College of Art, Central Saint Martins, Chelsea College of Art, Goldsmiths, Royal College of Art and Slade School of Art.
CorbettPROJECTS was launched in 2004 by The Cynthia Corbett Gallery and focuses on exhibition young, emerging artists and operates from innovative spaces such as hotels, offices, homes and shops, bringing art into unexpected environments and enhancing the viewer's appreciation.
