St. Regis Cap Cana Is Your Art-Filled, Family-Friendly Idyllic Getaway
Culture Watch is a new series spotlighting the intersection of fashion and art, bringing you the latest must-see exhibitions, pop-ups, installations, and more.
Summer might be coming to a close, but that doesn't mean that fashion and art's best exhibits are slowing down any time soon. This August, take advantage of the best that both worlds have to offer, starting with the art installations at the St. Regis Cap Cana Resort in the Dominican Republic.
The St. Regis Cap Cana Resort is at once an art-filled escape and a family-friendly beachside destination offering a wide range of activities for all. Within the hotel lies a beautiful series of stacked bulbous sculptures by Lorraine Franco, titled 'Totem to Remember.' The vertical ceramics pay tribute to the Taíno culture by representing its ancestry and shared memory. Many of the artists featured are located in the Dominican Republic. The mural inside the St. Regis Bar is by Santo Domingo-based Citlally Miranda, while a conceptual hammock was created by local design studio Atrezzo. Though the St. Regis is frequently associated with its hotels, its portfolio of resorts is filled with on-property experiences for all ages, including a spa and relaxing poolside retreat. Much of the atmosphere is family-focused—the destination offers plenty of activities for the kids. With youth-dedicated yoga, tennis, and movie nights, the resort is an idyllic place where the whole family can sink their toes in the sand, immerse themselves in a world of local art, and enjoy the scenic landscape.
