We are delighted to announce that a selection of our original vintage posters will be exhibited at 45 Park Lane from 7 November to 21 January 2024.
Art Deco - Age of Style and Glamour
"In collaboration with AntikBar, the renowned London gallery specializing in authentic vintage posters from across the globe, this exhibit is a visual feast and a journey through time. This exhibition celebrates all things Art Deco with an exquisite selection of original vintage posters reflecting the sleek and sophisticated essence of the period, from the Roaring '20s and beyond, encapsulating the allure of travel and leisure."
45 Park Lane is a stylish boutique hotel, part of the Dorchester Collection, with a modern vibe in a stunning building featuring a warm interior of dark wood, the staircase from the impressive double height lobby and CUT steak restaurant leading to an Art Deco cocktail bar and library area. Art is in our DNA is their living canvas dedicated to an evolving collection of creative works of art showcased in their ongoing exhibitions. Address: 45 Park Lane, London W1K 1PN.

The posters are displayed throughout the lobby and bar of 45 Park Lane, and this free exhibition is open daily (there is no need to reserve a time slot) until Sunday 21 January 2024. Curator tours can be arranged on request.
Keep an eye on this page and on our social media (links below) for more event information and images, which will be posted nearer to the opening date and during the exhibition period.
Note: 45 Park Lane is just around the corner from the Embassy of Japan where we are exhibiting Japanese travel posters until the end of December, so you could visit both exhibitions on the same day. To complete the experience and soak in the full ambience of the hotel and the artwork on display, why not enjoy a relaxing drink at the bar or a coffee in the lobby (especially magical over the festive period with their British Icons themed Artist's Tree welcoming guests!).
