Original Warhol, Other Cutting Edge Contemporary Art Pieces Debut In The Cordish Art Collection, An Exclusive Collection Curated For Live! Hotel By Suzi And David Cordish

"Every piece in this collection reflects the fun, energy, and excitement that is synonymous to our Live! brand around the world," said Suzi Cordish. "It took three years to bring these works together to create one expression that really tells our story. I'm thrilled to share these works and these experiences with our guests."

Through her career, Suzi Cordish has served on the National Board of the Smithsonian Institution, as President of the Board of Creative Capital Foundation, and as Chairman of Maryland Art Place. She currently serves on the Board of Trustees for the Arthur M. Sackler and Freer Gallery of Art. Mrs. Cordish spent three years working to commission or select each individual piece of the Collection. Her vision was to provide a unique guest experience for visitors to the Live! Hotel, the first hotel in the world to carry the Live! brand. Utilizing video display, mixed media, sculpture, photography, and print, the diverse collection is designed to engage all the senses.
