Complementing the stunning interiors, Mandarin Oriental, New York has partnered with Whitewall magazine to curate an exclusive year-long art exhibition of New York City-inspired works by established and emerging contemporary artists including Kenny Scharf, Shelter Serra, Ray Geary and Forrest Myers.

“Whitewall's vision to make the contemporary art world more accessible has been beautifully realized within the suite, and offers guests the rare chance to live with, learn about and even collect some incredible works of art,” said Editor in Chief, Katy Donoghue. In-room iPads allow guests to interact with the exhibition, providing access to information on the featured artists and their works.

In addition, Suite 5000 allows guests to become immersed in the finest of the city's film and music. A collection of films featuring New York City are available for viewing on a 75-inch flat panel television in the suite's state-of-the-art media center.
