Ace AIR:Β Boys Forever
Program: 40 Years / 40 Nights Location: Ace Hotel London Date of Stay: 10/23/16 Artist: Patrick Doyle and Mark AmuraΒ (asΒ Boys Forever)
While not-sleeping at Ace Hotel London, Patrick and Mark got busy making a hand sewn collage book, hand screen printed and marbled badges, and screen printed acrylic and watercolour works, which weβve got detail shots of here.
Patrick Doyle is a photographer and multi-instrumentalist, working in various cities and recording music under the name Boys Forever, as well as making work in collaboration with Mark Amura under the same name. Their work often involves traditional marbling and screen printing, combined to produce new techniques, most recently utilised in a limited run of t-shirts and sweatshirts for House of Voltaire.
An Artists in Residence program sprang up at our New York property in 2014 and this year, weβre taking the concept on tour with our friends at Printed Matter, Inc. 40 Years / 40 Nights celebrates the institutionβs 40th year by showcasing a new crop of 40 artists from around the world across 2016.
