Where art and hospitality converge
At Anfitrión, we believe that hotels can be more than just a place to stay; they can be spaces for creativity, inspiration and connection. That’s why our artist residencies offer something unique to Marbella and Costa del Sol: an opportunity for emerging and established artists to find a place where their ideas come to life while our guests enjoy an immersive, cultural experience.
On this occasion, we were honoured to welcome Patricia de Norverto, known as Unpatrus, who brought with her vibrant energy and unique vision of contemporary art.
Unpatrus: Art that transforms the daily life
Patricia, a 29-year-old visual artist, began her career in Fine Arts in Madrid, but it was in Italy where she discovered her passion for painting through textile printing and drawing. Her work revolves around the use of colour as a vehicle to capture reality in a unique and emotional way.
‘Colour is the engine that drives my work,’ says Unpatrus. His creative process starts from the observation of the everyday, reinterpreting tradition to create something extraordinary. With a mix of intense chromatics, abstraction and figuration, his art invites us to rediscover the familiar from a new perspective.
During her stay at our artist residencies, Patricia created a series of works that explore the dialogue between memory and reality. Her pieces, full of textures and patterns, transformed our spaces, allowing guests to immerse themselves in a unique visual experience.
Artistic residencies at Anfitrión
Our Artist Residence is one of the elements that sets us apart from other hotels in Marbella and Costa del Sol. We strive to go beyond traditional hospitality, offering a space where art and design meet.
- Exclusive experiences: During their stay, artists have the freedom to transform our spaces, from common areas to private corners, into living galleries that connect our guests with art in an intimate way.
- Cultural connection: Our programmes allow guests to interact with artists, learn about their creative process and even participate in exclusive activities such as workshops or talks.
- Local impact: We promote local and international talent, connecting our residents with the rich cultural tradition of Marbella and Costa del Sol.
A unique differential
While other luxury hotels in Marbella focus exclusively on comfort, at Anfitrión we combine hospitality and creativity to offer an experience that nourishes the soul. Our commitment to artist residencies allows us to offer our guests more than just accommodation: a deep connection to art and culture.
Whether you’re looking for inspiration, a beauty-filled escape or simply a unique experience, our artist residencies redefine what it means to stay in a hotel in Marbella.
The Importance of art in today’s world and support for young creators
In an increasingly globalised and technological world, art plays a crucial role as a means to connect with our emotions, preserve cultural identity and foster creativity. Beyond its aesthetic value, art offers us a space to reflect, to interpret reality from new perspectives and to strengthen ties between communities.
Supporting young artists is essential to ensure the continuity of cultural innovation. It is they who bring new ideas, challenge established norms and give a voice to emerging generations. At Anfitrión, we strongly believe in providing platforms for these talents to flourish by offering artist residencies that allow them to explore their creativity and share their vision with the world. By investing in young art, we are cultivating a cultural legacy that inspires and transcends borders.
