Explora Journeys Elevates the Guest Experience with Clarendon Fine Art Partnership
Explora Journeys
Explora Journeys continues to redefine luxury ocean travel, unveiling a new partnership with Clarendon Fine Art to curate the Galleria d’Arte aboard EXPLORA I and EXPLORA II – the first such collaboration at sea. This partnership brings an extraordinary and ever-evolving showcase of celebrated masters, blue-chip works, and emerging talents to sea, positioning Explora Journeys as the premier choice for discerning travellers.
For our travel partners, this represents an exciting new dimension of the Explora Journeys experience — one that inspires curiosity, sparks emotional connections, and offers clients access to purchase art that can be found nowhere else.
What this means for your clients:
- Curated Art that Inspires: Guests will encounter rare works by icons such as Salvador Dalí, Marc Chagall, Damien Hirst, and Andy Warhol, alongside contemporary talents including Mr. Brainwash and Andrea Roggi — thoughtfully curated to engage and inspire.
- Personal & Immersive Connections: With Clarendon’s dedicated art hosts on board, every encounter becomes more than just viewing — it’s an informed, enriching experience shaped by conversation, insight, and expertise.
- Stories to Take Home: Art becomes a meaningful extension of the Journey. Guests are guided in selecting works that reflect their passions and the spirit of their travels.
- Art Luminary Sessions: Expert-led, 30–45 minute sessions demystify the art world, covering topics from emerging trends to artist spotlights and collecting with confidence — making art approachable, inspiring, and rewarding.
- Unforgettable Enrichment: Exclusive events such as live painting demonstrations, artist-hosted receptions, and private unveilings transform the Galleria d’Arte into a vibrant hub of creativity and connection.
Featured Artists include:
Mr. Brainwash, Salvador Dalí, Andrea Roggi, Damien Hirst, Michael Rumsby, Christian Hook, Marc Chagall, David Drebin, Marco Grassi, Andy Warhol — and many others.
Exclusive Highlights:
- Rare Dalí Sculptures: Two exceptionally rare gold, jeweled Dalí sculptures will be showcased exclusively aboard Explora Journeys, debuting during opening celebrations.

Why this matters for our Travel Partners:
This partnership empowers you to position Explora Journeys as more than a voyage — it’s a cultural discovery, a personal connection, and an unforgettable story to take home. By offering your clients access to rare works, private consultations, and exclusive premieres, Explora Journeys becomes a truly differentiated choice in the luxury travel landscape.
