DoubleTree by Hilton London – Hyde Park Unveils Rankle & Reynolds Artwork
The recently opened DoubleTree by Hilton London - Hyde Park is embracing its leafy location by adding locally-inspired art to its design portfolio, with a specially commissioned painting by acclaimed British artists, Rankle & Reynolds. Following a £10 million refurbishment, the hotel is proud to welcome exclusive oil and acrylic on canvas, Serpentine 2013, as the finishing touch to its new-look lobby.
Featuring a montage of images drawn from the surrounds of nearby Hyde Park, the statement floor to ceiling painting challenges the conventionally nostalgic perception of the park as a formal landscape of historical significance. The work focuses on overlaid vistas along the Serpentine lakeside and is designed to evoke a source of natural energy within the contemporary urban environment.
Since first collaborating in 2008, Rankle & Reynolds have received critical and public acclaim though a series of high profile international exhibitions. Serpentine 2013 is just the second major commission by the pair available on public view in London.
