Blister Summit Artist Panel: Art & the Outdoor Industry


Listen Later

Today we are airing one of the panel sessions we held this past February at the Blister Summit, and this is a great conversation. We brought together four very accomplished artists and designers to discuss the intersection of art and the ski and snowboard worlds, as well as the broader outdoor industry. Our panelists are Yorgo Tloupas, co-founder of Black Crows Skis; Geoff McFetridge (who has worked with brands like Patagonia, Nike, & Apple; has appeared twice previously on the Blister Podcast, and is Jonathan Ellsworth’s telemark coach); John Fellows, who lives in Crested Butte, designed our Blister Summit logo, and whose artwork is displayed all around the outdoor industry); and Travis Parr, co-founder of Icelantic Skis, and the person behind Icelantic’s very distinctive artwork.
