Lift Tickets Feature Art From the Streets of Los Angeles

If you’re heading up to ski at one of the Aspen Skiing Company mountains, take a look at your lift ticket. It was designed by a Los Angeles artist who transforms materials found in the street into paintings and collages. For the lift ticket designs, artist Mark Bradford used “merchant posters.” They’re bright and include messages like Rich Boy, Sober Living and Artist of the Year. Aspen Public Radio’s Marci Krivonen spoke with Heidi Zuckerman-Jacobson. She’s the director of the Aspen Art Museum, which partnered with the Ski Company on the project.
