A
spen is a special place. Most of us enjoy exercise and the great outdoors
during our time here, with bikes, skis, boots or fishing poles. The recreational lifestyle of our
community is an important aspect, but the arts and culture one can experience in this town make it the well-rounded, fulfilling place that it is and keep intelligent, cultured people coming back. Aspen’s art galleries offer something for everyone from the casual muser to the serious collector. They carry small gift items, large sculptures, paintings and photographs by local and internationally recognized artists. Their owners’ passion for art shows in the thoughtfulness of their collections and their dedication to their clients. Take this guide with you as you wander the streets of Aspen and stop in a gallery or two. No visit is complete until you’ve experienced the art in Aspen.

F
or 20 years, Valley Fine Art — located on Mill Street at the historic Wheeler Opera House in downtown Aspen — has been a focal point for clients interested in great American art that tells the unfolding story of the American West. Some of the greatest American artists and photographers, living and historical, find a home for their work at the gallery, which also features sculpture, custom fine woodworking, and old pawn jewelry. At Valley Fine Art, both the artists and the art come to life in a new way that has something important to say about where we come from and where we’re going. Could anyone be more different than artist Andy Warhol and the legendary photographer Edward S. Curtis? Warhol was an American artist who was a leading figure in the visual art movement in the 1960s known
as pop art, while Curtis documented images of more than 80 different Native American tribes. Curtis’ epic body of work “The North American Indians” stands as the largest and most complete ethnographic study of Native Americans. Yet both have created masterpieces based on the same living history: “Geronimo,” a screenprint by Andy Warhol, and “Geronimo — Apache,” a vintage photogravure by Curtis. And both hang side by side at Valley Fine Art in Aspen, home to important artists documenting change in America across three centuries. The collector with a discriminating eye invariably finds much to admire at Valley Fine Art, an Aspen gallery that is always in the process of reinventing itself even as the high quality stands the test of time. It’s no surprise, then, that many collectors return to build their collections, though the gallery is also a magnet for new clients waiting to be enchanted by a whole new way of looking at America through the eyes of some of its greatest artists and photographers.

“I am continually fascinated by an artist’s use of light, shadow, scale and texture. Whether in painting or sculpture, these skills are employed by each artist uniquely with the resulting effects being visually and emotionally arresting. The importance and appeal of their works withstand the test of time.” – Mia Valley, Founder/Owner

Christopher Burkett, “Cottonwood and Light”, Cibachrome photograph, 30” x 40” Christopher Burkett, “Summer Aspen Forest”, Cibachrome photograph, 40” x 40”
Christopher Burkett Christopher Burkett hand-prints all of his images in a wet darkroom on Cibachrome printing material (also known as Ilfochrome). Cibachrome is manufactured with stable azo dyes put into the emulsion at the time of manufacture. The unwanted dyes are then removed as the print is processed, resulting in images that have unsurpassed luminosity, depth, color purity and sharpness. Burkett uses no filters, and there is no retouching or any type of digital manipulation to his photos. Burkett believes in the veracity and integrity of traditional, handmade photographic prints: A pixel will never be a photon. Unfortunately, this remarkable product was discontinued last year. Burkett stockpiled a large supply of Cibachrome, which will enable him to continue printing for at least seven more years. However, once it’s gone, it’s gone forever, and these Cibachrome prints will be truly irreplaceable.

Edward S. Curtis (1868 — 1952) Curtis is perhaps the most widely collected and exhibited fine art photographer in the 170-year history of the medium. His work has been exhibited in more than 40 countries and is found in thousands of private and public collections, including those of the Getty Museum, the Metropolitan Museum and the Museum of Modern Art.

hen defining the importance of art, gallery owner Ann Korologos says it best: “In a world of changing tastes and throwaway products, art endures. It is the connection to beauty and permanence of the human experience. The faster things move, the more upheaval and uncertainty, the greater the need and appreciation of art.” Located in the clock tower building in historic downtown Basalt, the gallery is filled with contemporary Western fine art. To Korologos, showing the work of living artists allows art collectors the opportunity to know artists personally. “One of the gallery’s goals is for people to leave the gallery with a deeper understanding of art and artists,” Korologos says. “Knowing the artists brings much more dimension to the perception of their work.” Guests walk in to find works created by internationally known masters such as Dan Namingha, Tomás Lasansky, Cheri Christensen and sculptor Gordon Gund. Regional favorites Dan Young, Jill Soukup, Gregory Stocks, and Andy Taylor are also represented. The vibrant and stimulating art represented in the gallery ranges from traditional landscape and wildlife painting to the abstract, as well as sculpture and ceramics. Korologos’ passion for connecting

artists and collectors, for bringing together thinkers, writers and other cultural leaders in her gallery, all contribute to an intellectual, inspiring experience. As a cultural venue, the gallery’s art and literature series has hosted such respected writers as Walter Isaacson, Dr. Ben Carson and Secretary Madeline Albright. Korologos summed up her gallery: “We exhibit Western art, and artists influenced by the West, knowing that the West is as varied as the landscape and the artists living here.”

Casterline Goodman 611 East Cooper Avenue, Aspen 970.925.1339 www.casterlinegoodman.com
A
spen’s art scene has something new to offer this year, thanks to the arrival of Casterline Goodman. The gallery, which also has a location in Chicago, is the only secondary investment art gallery currently operating in Aspen. Owners Robert Casterline and Jordan Goodman have been involved in the art business in some way for many years and use their expertise to help people start serious art collections or invest in pieces that will become an asset. Casterline Goodman specializes in post-war and contemporary art. While the quality of the works and renown of the artists hanging on the walls — including Andy Warhol, Damien Hirst, and Jeff Koons — makes for a
museum-like experience for anyone walking into the gallery, this team’s not messing around. Casterline and Goodman deal with serious collectors and seek to educate people about what makes a work of art an investment, find pieces for clients and advise them on what they can expect to pay. Their experience helps them to verify the authenticity and condition of a piece, and clients have recommended them based on their reliability. “It comes down to trusting someone,” Casterline said. “You want to deal with someone you can openly trust.” Since opening in Aspen in December, Casterline Goodman has also helped many local collectors sell pieces. Casterline and Goodman both have prior connections to Aspen and saw a niche in town for their type of business. “Aspen is one of my favorite cities in America, maybe the world,” Casterline said. “For me, it was time someone brought in quality, investment artwork.”

acroux Streeb, the company that developed lighting schemes for the new Elk Camp Restaurant in Snowmass, the clock tower next to Wagner Park in Aspen, and numerous homes in the area, is now offering products that can make art look its best in any environment. Revelite mounts directly to the frame of a painting or the wall behind it, much as a traditional picture light, according to its website. However, Revelite’s patent-pending technology incorporates optics that light the entire surface of a painting uniformly. It comes in a variety of colors and doesn’t use ultraviolet light, so it’s safe to use on sensitive media
such as paper, oil, lithography and photography. Lacroux Streeb is the exclusive Revelite dealer in the Roaring Fork Valley. Co-owner Justin Streeb said the product can be easily retrofitted to an existing setup. Lacroux Streeb also designs lighting schemes for new homes or for art lovers setting up a new collection. Based in Basalt, Lacroux Streeb can handle very large projects, yet is small enough to maintain interaction between designers, principals and installers. If you’re considering purchasing a work of art for your home or business, lighting will be very important in bringing the piece to its full visual potential.

L
inda Loeschen didn’t get her start in painting. She studied interior design at Parsons School of Design, where she also developed her watercolor skills. When she moved to Aspen in the ’70s, her plan was to make a career in design. However, after being invited to participate in the first Aspen Chapel Gallery show and selling several watercolors there, her best-laid plans vanished. Painting became her priority, and she started displaying her work in multiple shows and galleries. Loeschen and her husband, Lee, live on a ranch in Emma, outside Basalt. His workshirt hanging on a fencepost, his old scruffed boots and cowboy hats soon became source material for her paintings. Subjects have grown to include the cacti, barns and fencelines that surround her and bears that have wandered onto the ranch and beyond. “I like to explore negative spaces and overlapping shapes that I see in close ups of bushes, grasses and aspens,” says Loeschen. She has added acrylics to her paint box and enjoys combining the two mediums. Loeschen’s work “Box Canyon Ambush” is on the cover of the book “Art of the American West.” Among her many awards was the “Artists Choice 24

Award” at the prestigious “Cowgirl Up!” show at the Desert Caballeros Western Museum in Arizona. “I was so honored to have my peers recognize my work,” Loeschen said. She also won Best in Show and Best Watercolor at the Annual National Western Fine Art Exhibition and Sale in San Dimas, Calif. Loeschen’s work is on display in galleries throughout the western United States. Upcoming shows include the “Miniature Masterpieces Show” at the Phippen Museum in Prescott, Ariz., and the Western Heritage Museum’s “Horsing Around” in Hobbs, N.M.

O
ne of the most awarded landscape photographers in the world, Peter Lik stands apart. Born in Melbourne, Australia, and entirely self-taught, Lik moved to the United States in 1984, where he was introduced to the medium format panoramic camera. Lik has worked hard to become the artist he is today and shares his vision through his books, his television show, “From the Edge with Peter Lik,” and the galleries he has opened throughout the U.S. and abroad. Recognized as a Master Photographer in both the United States, where several of his pieces have been on display in the Smithsonian, and his homeland Australia, Peter Lik also continues to align himself with several
charitable organizations to promote local economies and raise the profile of important environmental issues. The Aspen gallery opened in 2008 and displays Lik’s photography exclusively. The photographic prints hanging on the wall display a wide variety of Lik’s work, which has taken him all over the world, including New York City, the Mediterranean and our own Colorado. “Yellow,” shown in a 6-foot by 10-foot format, captures the beauty of Aspen in the fall and is a must-see for all Aspen art collectors. Patrons are not limited to the prints hanging on the wall. The gallery custom-makes all the prints it sells, building the size and frame the purchaser desires. By using all the best print processes, the vibrancy and clarity of Lik’s photography comes across in every piece.

on’t let the name fool you: Pismo Fine Art Glass in Aspen may specialize in glass sculptures, wall art and jewelry, but it also carries works in a variety of other media. Upon walking in, guests are greeted by a six-foot high bronze sculpture of a young Buddhist monk’s head, “Noble One,” created by Scarlett Kanistanaux, a talented Colorado artist. Moving through the gallery, you might arrive at “Conversation #18,” a glass and metal sculpture of two people in deep conversation, by Leah Wingfield. Wingfield’s sandblasting techniques give the glass a matte finish, which
28
Art in aspen // SUMMER 2013
reflects glass in a unique way, making the figures appear to glow from within. Scott Fraser’s “Golden Mean in Red II,” an oil painting on board, fits in beautifully with the other threedimensional art that fills the gallery. Fraser’s work, often described as “new realism,” combines ordinary objects in a humorous and unexpected way, using light and color to bring them to life. “Golden Mean in Red II” hangs over a table in Pismo Gallery, showing how pieces can go together in a home collection. The table, which has unique geometric shapes and colors, was designed by Jeffry Mann. Mann, who now resides in Idaho, began his woodworking career in Aspen where he lived while growing up. Stephanie Trenchard’s work combines sculpting, painting and cast glass to create her story-telling blocks. The narratives are about various historical figures, and Stephanie ties elements of her own life into these portraits of either people or fairy tales she is inspired by. Pismo also features art that can be hung on the wall. “Gold Trio,” by Gerry Newcomb, is an example of his kiln cast glass triptychs. Noel Hart, an Australian artist, takes a painterly approach to his colorful blown glass pieces that are based on native exotic birds.
