The Gladstone Hotel proved to be the hippest 125-year-old in Toronto as the annual “Come Up to My Room” exhibition returned to its historic chambers. Each year the Gladstone invites a series of local artists and designers to create site-specific installations within the hotel’s rooms and public spaces, and this year’s event was the largest yet, with installations taking over spaces throughout all floors of the hotel. The 10-day exhibition, which ran from Jan. 16 to 25, attracted everyone from members of Toronto’s arts and design scenes to notable media personnel to curious passersby, and left everyone inspired with thoughtful creations by the likes of Akin Collective, Heretical Objects Cooperative, JB + DG, Ryerson Artspace and more.
