Photographer Gray Malin has teamed up with The Beverly Hills Hotel for his latest fine art series, Gray Malin at The Beverly Hills Hotel, celebrating the heritage of the iconic property. For over a century, The Beverly Hills Hotel has been the spot for Hollywood’s brightest lights to socialize by the pool or romance in the cozy private bungalows, while studio moguls and heavy-hitting financiers complete deals in the famed Polo Lounge. Inspired by its tinseltown history and lush playful grounds, Malin set out to create a series that honors the timeless Hollywood glamour that is synonymous with the hotel while incorporating his signature modern day style.
Over the course of a three day shoot, Gray created scenes from his interpretation of the ‘Golden Era’, filled with beautiful people in vintage wardrobe and props from the 1950s and 1960s to capture the essence of the timeless hotel. Utilizing many of the most celebrated locations on the property, this series marks a first for both Gray and The Beverly Hills Hotel; for Gray, it is his largest shoot to date, as well as his first that incorporates staged vignettes of models, props and meticulously planned sets. As for the hotel, this is the first time a professional fine art photographer was permitted to shoot a collection at the property. The resulting series will be a celebration of both an artist’s vision and his iconic muse.
Images from the new series, Gray Malin at The Beverly Hills Hotel, will be showcased on the red carpet entry at The Beverly Hills Hotel from October 15th through 26th. Signed and numbered prints will be available as limited editions on www.GrayMalin.com and at the hotel’s Signature Shop beginning October 16th, 2018.
