The Japanese artist Takashi Murakami combines highly refined classical Japanese painting techniques with distinctive Pop sensibilities. Known for his “Superflat” style, directly influenced by manga and anime, the artist creates works that explode with color and playfulness. For the 2015–16 ski season, in collaboration with Aspen Skiing Company, Murakami has produced four unique images, all of which embody his trademark visual aesthetic.
The Aspen Art Museum’s Young Curators of the Roaring Fork (YCRF) program is a six-month internship that gives high school students direct exposure to a collection of world-class exhibitions, artists, and ideas of an accredited contemporary art museum. YCRF interns work together on all aspects of the curatorial process to produce an exhibition of artworks created by their peers.
