Alan Faena is an entrepreneur and creative visionary who has made an indelible mark across a wide range of industries including hospitality, entertainment, art, design, fashion, real estate, and urbanism.
He created internationally heralded, large- scale Faena Districts in both Buenos Aires and Miami, which have transformed their neighborhoods into valuable real estate, iconic architectural enclaves, and dynamic cultural hubs. Alan Faena has been a force for cultural development and creative exchange in North and South America. His fashion line, which he founded at 18 years old, successfully merged design with contemporary art and music to transform a socio-cultural moment. In 2000, he turned his focus to the way that art and culture could transform cities— beginning with Buenos Aires and expanding to Miami in 2014. He has collaborated with some of the world’s leading talents, businessmen, and philanthropists to fuse art, music, design, entertainment, sustainable architecture, and state-of-the art technology to create new cultural epicenters. Among
his collaborators are Sir Norman Foster, Rem Koolhaas, Philippe Starck, Damien Hirst, and Baz Luhrmann. Placing cultural practices at the heart of all of his endeavors, Alan Faena supports the independent non-profit Faena Art that commissions and produces cutting-edge site-specific multi-disciplinary projects like the annual Faena Festival, which celebrates cultural practitioners; Faena Prize , that supports and commissions artists around the world; and Faena Theater , which creates content and live productions in both districts. Alan Faena has established a brand of choice and a powerful voice for taste makers around the world. In 2019, Rizzoli published the story of Alan’s life entitled Alan Faena: Alchemy & Creative Collaboration, and Architecture of Being , a deeply personal framework of attributes to liberate the self in this highly personal manifesto exploring the constructs of human potential.
