The Camera Club is proud to announce Let’s Get It On, the fifth instalment in its ongoing series of community-minded photographic exhibitions. Launching Thursday August-18, Let’s Get It On presents a top shelf selection of big mountain & alpine landscape photography.
“Like an intimate fireside moment, Let’s Get it On delivers a deeply sensual affair of alpine-inspired landscape photography. From big mountain vistas to deep backcountry adventures, here is a cold smoked exhibition that’s guaranteed to get your mojo cook’n!” Darryl Nichols, The Camera Club
Featuring images captured by some of our planets leading snowboard lensmen, Let’s Get It On presents an unpretentious journey into the high altitude adventures of Jeff Curtes, Jake McBride, Dan Himbrechts, Alex Roberts, Andrew Fawcett, Vaughan Brookfield and Sven de Monoski amongst other exhibiting photographers.
“These are some of the most dominant mountain photographers in both the Australian and the international the snow industry. If you’ve picked up a snow magazine in the last decade, you have for sure seen some of their incredible work,” Damon Hayler, two time Winter Olympic’s snowboarder.
The Transfer and Mountainwatch crew have thrown in their expertise to collaborate with the Camera Club on an exhibition that is sure to turn up the heat. “This talented underworld sect of global sifters who stink like Jagermeister and sport frozen index fingers are the types who motivate us to do what we do at Transfer. There are photographers, but then there are the image makers - these are the ones that inspire us with a click of their finger and evoke a new perception - it’s going to be inspirational to see their images come to life in large format prints, don’t miss it,” Comments Russell Holt, Mountainwatch and Transfer Magazine.
One of the most acclaimed of these photographers is Jeff Curtes, who will be exhibiting alongside a stable of impressive frozen-fingered friends. The SNOWBOARDING blows your mind…eyes wide open as progression happens through the lens day after day, year after year. But without a doubt, it’s the MOUNTAINS…the moments within our ever humbling natural world, that takes your breath away and makes you feel more alive, smaller, and more peacefully quiet than anything anyone could imagine. Places, peaks, powder…oh, and the light…the things that make this, the best job in the world. Long after the catalog is finished, the magazine printed, the tricks done and outdone, these are the ones that I keep with me forever,” Says Curtes.
The ’Let’s Get It On’ exhibition launch party is being held Thursday August-18 from 7pm with a special alpine-inspired free cocktail on entry and live dj.
