The third season of MITICO, Belmond’s annual artistic series with Galleria Continua, focuses on a single artist for the first time – internationally acclaimed contemporary artist, Daniel Buren. The global series has launched at Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel, Cape Town, and will be followed by further commissions at Belmond’s legendary properties: Copacabana Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Rio de Janeiro; Villa San Michele, A Belmond Hotel, Florence and Castello di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany; Hotel Cipriani, A Belmond Hotel, Venice; and La Residencia, A Belmond Hotel, in Mallorca. 

Titled “Haltes Colorées”, meaning “colourful halt”, each of these six site-specific works offers its audience a moment to pause for a fresh new perspective on each surrounding location and its unique corresponding landscape. For this year’s MITICO series, Belmond’s storied properties continue to act as the stage for contemporary creativity, investing in the heritage of the future and the past simultaneously.

Daniel Buren shares insight on this year’s series: “What brings together the six “Haltes” of the 2024 MITICO season (Cape Town, Rio de Janeiro, Tuscany, Venice and Mallorca) is the beauty of each location's environment. Celebrating nature and architecture, these six highly varied in situ works offer a new perspective on Belmond's properties, fitting into a different space each time.”
