    Abstract

    A FREESKI EXHIBITION

    Skifahren ist keine Kunst und Skifahrer sind keine Künstler. Es sei denn natürlich, Skifahren ist Kunst und Skifahrer sind Künstler? Der vierte Spielfilm von Faction zeigt pure Kreativität durch eine Reihe von Freeski-Sequenzen von den pulsierenden Stra?en Japans über die puderigen Kissen von British Columbia bis hin zu den fein gepflegten Geländeparks in der Schweiz und Italien. Jeder Standort bietet eine leere Leinwand für den künstlerischen Ausdruck des Teams. Denn nichts schreit so sehr nach „Künstler“, wie gro?e Klippen zu schicken und Gebäudewände zu zermahlen.
