Liam Gillick Creates Hotel Interventions for ArtReview and The Standard's London Launch Party

During London Art Week, ArtReview collaborated with The Standard hotel brand to host a launch event for their new Kings Cross property on October 4, 2019. British artist Liam Gillick was commissioned to produce several site-specific works for the occasion. His contributions included custom-designed drinks mats and napkins distributed at the party and throughout the following week, along with a window installation at the tenth-floor bar. Gillick also assembled a playlist and curated a selection of his favorite books for the hotel's library. Over 300 art world figures attended the celebration, including collectors, artists, curators, and gallerists. The event served as a soft opening for The Standard's London location.
