ArtAspen opens at the Aspen Ice Garden tomorrow. Bernie Taupin — Elton John’s songwriter —  will display his art. Taupin is a mixed-media artist and uses paint, rope and other materials to create abstract pieces.

 

The show features art shown in galleries from New York, Santa Fe, Miami and Los Angeles.

 

Events also include a lecture from sculptor and University of Northern Colorado graduate, Gino Miles, called “From Greeley to Aspen and All of the Places in Between”.  

The exhibition runs through Sunday.
