Issue V
THE MYTH OF PANDORA
DISCOVERY
What you will be having the opportunity to read inside this issue, dear reader, will lead you from a geographical discovery, to an astronomical one, to one that is more interior and to one that is solely artistic.
This is why the Orlando Hotel changes shape and sets off on a journey on a host of different means of transport and still – one might say, obviously – with Mr O at the helm. The journey itself is pure pleasure. Enjoy reading and remember: be brave and open. Research and discovery are what keeps our minds fertile and inspired.
In this time of uncertainty and fear, never has it been so important to stay open towards others and towards different cultures.
We commissioned Orlando’s unique Constellation Map to Bellerby & co Globemakers, our Imaginary Island, where the Orlando Hotel is located, to the artist Natsko Seki and a special meringue recipe to Celine Oh.
The myth of Pandora inspired our editorial and our beloved Short Art Movie.
Among the artists interviewed: the brilliant Ignasi Monreal who worked with the one and only Alessandro Michele, the conductor Lorenzo Viotti, the mise en place photographer Celine Oh, the Sardinian-American design duo Pretziada, the multifaceted Gaia Trussardi, the art curator and writer Maria Vittoria Baravelli and many others.
