In 2021, Tim and Dirk von Gal relaunched Aspen’s annual art fair, Art Aspen, as Intersect Aspen Art and Design Fair. The brothers, who reside in Georgia, both had an affinity for Aspen—Dirk worked as a ski instructor here in the 1990s and Tim has spent time here over the last decade. When given the opportunity to relaunch the summer art event, they immediately took on the project, giving the fair new life and energy while expanding its programming.

This year, Intersect Aspen (July 30–August 3, at the Aspen Ice Garden) follows three main themes: The Evolution of Art in the Local Community, an Exploration of Art and Design in Aspen, and the Intersection of Art and Environmental Consciousness. Presenting thought-provoking programming with 34 local, national, and international art and design galleries, this year’s fair promises to be the most exciting yet.
