The Art on Burton

Jan 20, 2012 - Apr 15, 2012

The Art on Burton examines the profound role of art and design on the culture of snowboarding by exhibiting work from artists who have contributed to the design and image of Burton Snowboards. Snowboarding’s imagery and products have consistently re-enforced its position as an outsider sport.  These artists - and the creative teams at a company like Burton - are driving this sport and its significant sector of pop culture.  There are few other examples where fine artists’ work reaches the public so directly and prolifically. Burton itself is a Vermont story about snow, art, design, a dream, and the success of a company, a sport and a culture.

This exhibition focuses on artists who have contributed to the design and image of Burton, highlighting significant moments and innovations. It will include original artwork, board graphics, posters, videos, and photographs.

Artists and Designers: Thomas Campbell, Kevin Cyr, Futura, Mike Giant, Greg Gossel, Maya Hayuk, Andy JenkinsAndrei Molodkin, Michael Montanaro, Jari Salo, Lance Violette, Andy Warhol, William Wasden.
