Mitchell Fenton: Adventurous Souls
We are ringing in 2021 with lots of hope and optimism and what better way to start the year than to celebrate the adventure that lives in all of us! On display at the gallery and online, Mitchell Fenton's "Adventurous Souls" collection marries the vintage skier with contemporary freestyle. These works borrow colour, character and tone from the vintage ski posters of the 1930s and '40s with considerable detail taken from countless historical photographs laid over images of the modern-day freestyle skier. What's old is new again? Ski on!
