has recommended this article for you to read: http://www.blackbookmag.com/article/openings-bleeding-edge-contemporary-art-museum Palazzo Poseurs Get A Facelift No city in the world has been trod upon by so many art/film/whatever poseurs without ceding an inch of its character or dignity as has the beloved and mysterious Venezia. No surprise, then, that it’s most bleeding edge contemporary art museum, Palazzo Grassi, should be housed in a grandiose 18th Century palace. Its new neighboring and namesake boutique hotel’s sexy, austere furnishings are an apt complement to the futurism of the art, but neo-classical details, as well as Venetian lighting fixtures and fabrics, terrazzo floors and glass mosaics, keep the hotel firmly rooted in Venice’s unshakeable romantic historicism. www.bbook.com
