Sur les Pistes | The Art of Descent

Tracing the Poetry of Motion, the Elegance of the Alpine Descent, and the Warmth of Après-Ski Tradition.

Introducing Sur les Pistes: Alpine Artistry

Sur les Pistes: Alpine Artistry invites you into a world where snow gracefully touches the slopes, inspiring artists such as Tony Kelly, Joshua Jensen-Nagle, and Yves Tremblay. This curated exhibition captures the poetic dance between motion and stillness, turning the alpine landscape into both canvas and muse.

Capturing the Art of Skiing

Indeed, this collection elevates skiing beyond mere athleticism, presenting it as an elegant choreography of grace, rhythm, and light. Ski tracks flow like expressive brushstrokes, while layered textures echo untouched snowy terrains. From vibrant contrasts capturing sunlit peaks to subtle tones evoking distant horizons, each artwork by Tony Kelly, Joshua Jensen-Nagle, and Yves Tremblay immortalizes the fleeting beauty of alpine life.

Furthermore, skiing itself mirrors the essence of the collection. Precision balanced with freedom, serene summits contrasted with thrilling descents—all captured vividly within these compelling compositions. The collection invites viewers to vividly experience the crisp alpine air and immerse themselves in the rhythm of the mountains.

Celebrating Après-Ski Culture

Yet, the allure of Sur les Pistes extends beyond the slopes. Significantly, it embraces après-ski culture—the warmth of a roaring fire, the convivial atmosphere, and the sophisticated charm of alpine social gatherings. Here, the excitement of skiing meets refined relaxation, offering moments of joy, connection, and elegance.

Ultimately, each work offers a captivating insight into alpine living, merging nature’s grandeur with timeless winter traditions.
