This wondrous season, our sunny island transcended its reputation as a tropical haven to become an epicenter of artistic expression with the St. Barth Art Week – an invitation for art enthusiasts and cultural connoisseurs to explore the vibrant intersection of Caribbean charm and unmatched, colorful creativity. This celebration of photography, of looking at life in a unique way, through a lens that captures the very essence of the scene it is witnessing, makes a home in some of the island’s most iconic venues, offering visitors an unforgettable journey into the heart of the art world.
The St. Barth Art Week is more than an everyday showcase; it’s a dialogue, a culturally significant conversation featuring renowned international artists alongside local talents. The event showcases the island as a muse that inspires creativity in all its forms. Each venue, from neighboring hotels to art galleries, provides a unique backdrop that enhances the visual storytelling of the featured works – thought-provoking installations, vibrant canvases, and portrayals that blend seamlessly with the island’s natural beauty.
This is St. Barth Art Week.
An Exquisite Collection of Art and Venues
Throughout Art Week, visitors and locals alike gain access to a plethora of exclusive events held at a wide collection of venues such as Hôtel Le Carl Gustaf and Rosewood Le Guanahani. Each evening, these spaces come aflame with curated showcases, artist talks, and immersive experiences that provide an intimate look into their creative process.
What sets St. Barth Art Week apart as an island must-see is its unique blend of culture and Caribbean charm. Against the backdrop of turquoise waters and verdant landscapes, the artworks take on a life of their own, resonating with the vibrant energy of the atmosphere. From contemporary masterpieces to works that celebrate the island’s heritage, every piece tells a story that connects viewers to the spirit of St. Barts.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector or an admirer of the arts, the St. Barth Art Week ensures a dynamic and engaging itinerary full of surprises.
A Tradtion of Finesse
Since its very first edition back in February 2019, of which Le Barthélemy was proud to participate as one of the selected venues, the St. Barth Art Week has become a well-known tradition of the island, featuring top names from all of France as well as from across the world.
For instance, in the 2021 edition, Fred Meylan, the acclaimed French photographer with over three decades of experience, chose Le Barth to be a home for his careful visual narratives from December 2 to the 15 – detailed dances of sunlight in water, a promise to take attendees on a soothing, refreshing adventure through the portrait models’ actions and the artist’s eyes.
