A Visionary’s Vision: His Story
For Ian Gillespie of Westbank, it isn’t necessarily about the quantity of projects produced, it’s the quality. There’s many artists in the world who have created great work, but they don’t have the reputation of having created an incredible body of work.

Hello Spring ’16’ Unveil
On March 4, 2015, we unveiled a new light installation by Bocci in our main hotel entrance. Beginning with a spring fashion show curated by luxury retailer Holt Renfrew, and followed by an appearance from the artist Omer Arbel, the evening was capped off with a dramatic reveal of the artwork titled ’16’.
Hello Spring
Not only is it a breathtaking piece of art, it’s Bocci’s largest public artwork in Canada! Because of the special fabrication technique, no two pieces of glass sculptures are the same shape.
