Emaar Properties
Emaar Properties - The Address Hotel, Dubai
As international art consultants we work closely with our clients in commissioning original artwork for specific projects.
In 2008 we won an international competition to work with Emaar in Dubai on a 5m high, external sculpture project for their award winning hotel on the Burj Dubai development.
This is the first major contemporary sculpture to be commissioned in Dubai and establishes Artzu as the leading art consultancy in the Gulf region.
‘The Address’ is one of Emaar’s most iconic skyscrapers and they wanted a contemporary sculpture to reflect the prestigious nature of this development.
Artzu was responsible for leading the client through the commissioning process from the initial presentation to the final installation and the sculpture has made a significant contribution to the imposing nature of the building.

Christie's Hospital
Christie’s Hospital – Developing an Art Strategy
Artzu won the contract in June 2006 to develop and present an art strategy to the board members of the world renowned Christie’s Hospital which specialises in the treatment of cancer.
The purpose of the report was to set out a clear and achievable art strategy and to make recommendation for a comprehensive program for transforming the environment of the hospital.
Throughout the work program the project team actively engaged with staff members and others working externally in the healthcare environment.
The strategy concluded that the use of artwork would significantly enhance the hospital environment, reflecting its standing in the healthcare sector and local community.

IM Group Headquarters
IM Group Headquarters, Coleshill
IM Group completed a new purpose-built Head Office set in 200 acres of parkland for their 170 staff and wanted the specially commissioned artwork to reflect their core values of transparency, agility and inventiveness.
Artzu identified the key locations for the artwork and together with their MD, Andrew Edmiston, the artists were selected and provided with a brief to work from.
Kate Boyce’s paintings contrasted elements of the tree-studded parkland using a strong colour palette and a sense of balance between areas of space and fine detail. She incorporated photographic elements with views from IM House looking out onto the landscaped gardens.
Matt Wilde’s paintings incorporated printed material such as newspapers relating to the IM Group. Within the paintings there are messages & text with reference to the Suffragette Movement in New York and the abolition of slavery set in a contemporary Birmingham city centre.
