Aspen ski area has a history of making its lift ticket designs more artistic than your run-of-the-mill lift pass, and 2016/17 is no exception.
Commemorating 11 years of collaboration, the Aspen Art Museum and Aspen Skiing Company have announced that 11 images by Los Angeles-based contemporary artist Laura Owens will appear on the 2016/17 ski season lift tickets.
Her depictions of lemons raining from the sky, a reoccurring motif within Owens’ work, are simultaneously reminiscent of pop art silk-screen prints and seventies illustrations.
The new artwork will debut on 24 November, opening day for the 2016/17 season.
