Superblue Launches New, Innovative Arts Experience

Superblue Launches New, Innovative Arts Experience

We’re delighted to share the public launch of Superblue, a new, innovative arts venture that aims to bring experiential and immersive art exhibits to diverse audiences.  Through individual Experiential Art Centers (or EACs for short), exhibits will include deep dives into the works of notable artists like JR, a French photographer who focuses on social justice issues; James Turrell, a light and space artist; and teamlab, a Japanese Art Collective.

Zubatkin is collaborating with Superblue on its first location in Miami, where a formerly abandoned industrial building across from the Rubell Museum is being transformed to present the work of multiple artists.  The team has been responsible for overseeing the design and construction of the Miami EAC, as well as managing the development of the exhibits.  Superblue is expecting to open other such centers in the future in the United States, Europe and Asia.  For more on this New York Times story, click here.

Congratulations to Superblue on this new venture!

It’s inspiring to see some good news in the cultural sector, as museums in the Berkshires have reopened to the public after a period of lockdown.  We’re especially excited to see our client, the Clark Art Institute, featured in the New York Times.  The art critic shares that “it’s the historical collection of the Clark, which generously kept its grounds open to the Williamstown public throughout the lockdown, that feels most meaningful to return to.”  Read more at the following link.

We look forward to seeing more institutions join the Clark in opening their doors to the public in a safe way!
