We have encouraged local artists to display their work on our walls for both patients and visitors alike. We are currently enjoying the work of Xavier Fane (please see more info below). If you are an artist in the community and would like to have your work displayed we would love to hear from you.
XAVIER FANE: CURRENTLY FEATURED ARTIST
About Xavier: Local photographer Xavier Fane wasn’t a photographer when he made it to Crested Butte in the mid-eighties from his homeland in the Pyrenees Mountains of Spain. It wasn’t until 1990 that through his dedication to and love of mountain sports he landed his first job as a photojournalist and writer for Solo Bici, a mountain bike publication based in Spain. That opened the door to many travels around the globe in search of adventure, as well as more opportunities to write and shoot for other outdoor sport-oriented publications. As time went by, his passion for photography grew to become a full-time profession. He is currently on the staff of two Spanish outdoor magazines, as well as a regular contributor to other publications such as VeloNews, The Mountain Flyer, Mtn Bike Action, the Crested Butte Magazine, Outside Magazine and Men’s Journal.
“After a lifetime of running, biking and skiing swiftly in the mountains I have found in photography an endeavour in which to develop my more contemplative side. It has helped me immensely in fortifying my bond with nature and the universe. It’s also a natural extension of my mountaineering background. I like to go deep in the mountains; sleep on summit tops; get stinky, lonely, and sometimes scared and from this angle look at the world through my lenses.”
