This week I spotted the latest secret sculpture heading into its new home on Lāna‘i, and it sparked a thought:
Lāna‘i isn’t just evolving, it’s transforming into an immersive art destination.
Larry Ellison, Oracle co‑founder and vision‑driven owner of nearly the entire island, isn’t just curating luxury homes; he’s curating moments of cultural resonance. His personal collection, spread across the Sensei and Four Seasons resorts, turns the landscape into one giant, living gallery.
Notable Installations You Must See:
The Breach by Urs Fisher: A large whale, symbol of oceanic majesty, blending with the island's blue panoramas.
Jeff Koons’ Aphrodite: Mirror-polished and monumental, an audacious modern focal point amid tropical serenity
Fernando Botero bronzes: Thick, voluptuous forms quietly hidden in lush garden corners. Botero's “Woman on Horse” and “Adam & Eve” feel simultaneously playful and profound
Jaume Plensa’s Talaia: A powerful visage rising from the landscape, a fitting ending to Lāna‘i’s transformative art journey.
Balthasar Lobo, Marc Quinn and more: Each installation, whether a bold red bloom or serene face, creates a dialogue between art, nature, and luxury
