What better way to celebrate 5 wonderful years of Saint Kate than staying in a living, breathing piece of art?!
Our Canvas rooms were given to local artists as blank slates - the completely, unique finished products are now yours to explore. Plus, a portion of the proceeds from each stay benefits local and state-wide art initiatives. Additionally, our Ovation Suites are remarkably stunning!
1. John Grant | Perfict Rm. 726
John Grant is a commercial photographer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Grant’s “Perfict” room explores concepts of beauty, shape, and obsession in today’s world. A world where perfection is expected, inside and out. The lengths we go to to present the ‘perfect’ image are at the heart of John’s work in this room. What’s perfect, isn’t. Smell the flowers. Eat the cake. Leave your technology at home. Live.johngrantphotography.comjohngrantphoto

3. Reed Skocz | Three Stage Walls
Reed SkoczThree Stage WallsReed Skocz is interested in the process of making through collage and painting as a way of divining. Employing ideas from theater and mysticism, he creates work that reflects interaction and interpretation. Like work by R.B. Kitaj, Skoczcombines areas of color with sparse gestural marks to suggest space within flatness. His methods characteristically involve reconfiguring objects through paint to discover new perspectives. Skoczwas born in Chicago and received his BFA from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design.
