ART AT THE MANDRAKE
Art is at the forefront of the Mandrake's philosophy with a unique collection, carefully curated over many years and continually evolving.  
The gestation, conception and creation of The Mandrake has gone hand in hand with the acquisition and commissioning of artwork that expresses the spirit of the hotel. Works are provocative, sensual, exotic, beautiful, fun and sometimes even dark, but always creative. Each and every piece has been sourced for the specific area it occupies. Where the perfect work has not been found, artists have been commissioned to work closely with the space and ethos of the hotel to create a new piece. In this way, these artists become permanently connected with the soul of the hotel.

THE LIBRARY AT THE MANDRAKE
The library at The Mandrake is a collection of arts, photography, fashion, design and literature books curated specially for the hotel, featuring a selection of monographs on artists whose works are represented in the building. These figures include Jonas Burgert, Francesco Clemente, Marius Bercea and Francis Bacon. Guests are always welcome to borrow and immerse themselves in this eclectic array of beautiful editions for the duration of their stay.
