Spend a year exploring the contemporary art world with a personal art advisor. This guided travel program offers curated access to galleries, studios, and events — immersing you in the practices, collections, and cultural contributions of the artists, collectors, and curators shaping contemporary art today.

Art Season 2027 is a collector-focused art-travel programme split into chapters across the year. Each trip pairs privileged access — biennials, fairs, museums, foundations, and private studios — with hands-on guidance tailored to your collecting goals. Groups are intentionally small; transportation and hospitality are taken care of, and every visit is curated and accompanied.

$1,000.00

January 28 AM - Attendees must plan to arrive on January 27th


Throughout the visit, Árbol de Luz continually challenges perception and invites quiet reflection on consciousness and our relationship with the natural world. More than an artwork to be viewed, it is a space to be experienced, one that encourages visitors to explore perception through light, color, silence, and time. In doing so, the work offers an invitation to observe not only the surrounding landscape, but also the act of seeing itself.

Recommendations: Bring swimwear and comfortable footwear 

Note: No alcoholic beverages are served, allowing you to enjoy a pure and authentic atmosphere.

Experience Duration: 6 hours

Includes:

  • Transportation from Merida 

  • Exclusive access to James Turrell’s artwork.

  • Courtesy lunch specially prepared for the occasion.
