In a mutual appreciation for bold art and design, W Brisbane and the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA) are igniting the next phase of their partnership with an epic travel package, to coincide with ‘The Soul Trembles’, a major exhibition of works by leading international artist Chiharu Shiota showing at GOMA from 18 June.

For those with an appetite for vibrant art and an eye for daring design, W Brisbane is the perfect base for a stylish stay. Guests will be WOW-ed by epic design moments from the moment they step foot in the hotel, and with QAGOMA just a five-minute walk away across the Brisbane River, guests can revel in supreme art experiences right at their doorstep.

From 18 June until 3 October 2022, W Brisbane guests can Unravel the Art with tickets to ‘The Soul Trembles’, the largest solo exhibition of works by Japan-born, Berlin based Chiharu Shiota. GOMA is the exclusive Australian venue for the survey show that includes more than a hundred artworks ranging from large-scale installations, sculpture and video performance to photography, drawing and set design.

Chiharu Shiota’s compelling immersive artworks draw on deeply personal emotions and experiences to give visual form to intangible concepts like memories, anxiety, dreams and silence. Among the artworks featured are seven of the artist’s intricately woven red and black thread installations. Guests can spark their creativity as they get acquainted with all of Shiota’s memorable and transformative works. They can also enjoy a 20% discount at the QAGOMA store.

As guests make their way back to W Brisbane, they can continue the artistic journey as they connect with art touchpoints throughout the hotel. Revelling in the custom furnished Living Room Bar at the heart of the hotel, guests can ignite their stay with two specialty art-themed cocktails. The fun continues at WET Deck where they can kick back poolside and take in the bold geometric designs overhead as they relax in the sun. Guests will enjoy breakfast for two at Three Blue Ducks, or they can take it easy and enjoy brekky in their glamorous suite. W Brisbane also has guests covered with valet parking at Wheels so they can ride in style.

The partnership between QAGOMA and W Brisbane will inspire local and visiting audiences to explore Brisbane’s art scene. Bringing guests unmistakable, unforgettable experiences, W Brisbane is the ideal destination for those looking to spark their creativity and be immersed in culture on their next Brisbane stay.
