Art Basel artist’s display at the Biltmore Hotel

Friday, December 4th, 2009

Wolfgang Roth & Partners Fine Art presents internationally acclaimed artist Stefan Szczesny’s new shadow sculptures at the Biltmore Hotel as part of Art Basel Miami Beach 2009. The stainless steel statues range in sizes up to 8 feet tall and are strategically placed to cast shadows, thus adding another dimension that changes throughout the day. The idyllic nature of Szczesny’s sculptures is ideal for South Florida’s landscape and perfectly reflected in the tropical foliage and languid female forms of his work.

The exhibition at the Biltmore will be open to the public through January 14, 2010.

WHEN: Friday, December 4th, 2009

Opening Reception (by invitation only)
10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

WHERE: The Biltmore Hotel
1200 Anastasia Avenue
Coral Gables, FL 33134
