St. Barth’s Art Week 2021 is coming to Le Barth

Photography: St. Barth’s Art Week honored guest

Since men became men, art has always been around. We can even see it in cave paintings: that inherent human need of telling stories, of portraying the world as we see it, both individually and collectively, and sharing that vision. It’s a testimony of community and creativity, a way of channeling what we feel and passing forward our knowledge.

It’s perfectioning through history, the advancement of technology and chemistry, made it all possible so that, later on, humans were able to catch ephemeral moments and save them forever. Capture the beauty and the energy, the story behind that moment, for years and years to come.

Since 2019, the festival has become one of the island’s top events for artists. It bestows upon us an unprecedented creative atmosphere that feels like breathing in shapes and colors, and represents a great opportunity for you to acquire unique pieces that promise to give your owns space that speck of color, light and life that only the magic of a professional lens in skilled hands can achieve.

St. Barth’s Art Week is an exceptional opportunity both for artists and for attendees.

Fred Meylan at Le Barthelemy

Fred Meylan is a talented French photographer with more than 30 years of experience. Built from his debuts as a reporter and people photographer, his vision of Fashion photography goes beyond the purely aesthetic and offers something truly empirical.

“For this special exhibition, Meylan presents photographs which are –at their core– a celebration of the power and beauty of water, and its ability to soothe, strengthen, enlighten, and delight. Le Barthelemy is the perfect setting to house Meylan’s images, as it is deeply connected to the relaxing and restorative spirit of the ocean.”

His careful narratives, and the contrast of sunlight in water, promise to take you on a soothing, refreshing adventure through the models’ actions and the artist’s eyes.

The exhibition will take place from December 2nd to 15th at Le Barthelemy Hotel & Spa, the #1 hotel on the island of St. Barths.

Access to the opening event is free of charge and includes a welcome drink. Since places are limited, we urge you to please register here. Remember, you can also book a table for dinner at our brand-new Mediterranean restaurant, Amis.

We hope to see you very soon and enjoy art together at Le Barth.
