Hôtel Magique x Hotel BonSol: Artist Call & Update
We are beyond excited to share the journey of our collaboration with Hotel BonSol in Mallorca. The Call for Artists was launched to invite creators from around the world to contribute to a special collection. In February 2025, we reached out to artists to submit their works for the opportunity to be part of a collection that blends one-of-a-kind pieces with limited-edition art prints. The stakes were high, with 10 winners to be selected and one artist chosen for 5-week residency at Hotel BonSol.
This exciting initiative brings together two worlds united by a shared passion for art, storytelling, and the creation of spaces that inspire. After a serendipitous meeting between Natalia from Hotel BonSol and Milou Neelen from Hôtel Magique at the BonSol last year, they felt a deep connection to the hotel’s unique ambiance and vision. This connection sparked the idea of opening an invitation to artists worldwide to showcase their talents in a special artist call.
Through this collaboration, we celebrate the beauty of artistry and the power of creative expression. The winning artist will not only have the opportunity to join Hotel BonSol for a residency but will also create new works inspired by their time in Mallorca. This experience will allow them to contribute to the creative legacy of both Hôtel Magique and Hotel BonSol, becoming an integral part of this collaboration’s history.
The Art Legacy of Hotel BonSol
Hotel BonSol's founders were passionate art collectors, with a deep love for travel and the stories art can tell. Throughout their journeys, they acquired unique antiques from across the globe, many of which are still displayed throughout the hotel. This rich collection, built from their dedication to preserving art, gives the hotel its signature quirky and inspiring charm, making it a living testament to the founders’ vision. It’s their legacy that continues to inspire today, and we’re proud to honor that spirit through this artist call, inviting new works to contribute to the ever-evolving story of BonSol.
Winners & Art Collection Coming Soon
We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve selected the final 10 — and 2 incredible winners! Last Tuesday, Hotel BonSol welcomed a distinguished panel of judges from Mallorca’s and Spain’s contemporary art scene to select the residency winner. After careful deliberation, the decision was so close that Hotel BonSol chose to welcome two artists instead!
Both winners will enjoy a 5-week residency at the hotel, culminating in a week-long exhibition in Mallorca later this year. But the excitement doesn’t stop there: all 10 finalists, including the two winners, will be part of a curated online collection, launching soon through Hôtel Magique.
