Exhibition information:
The Verbier 3-D Foundation is a charitable cultural organization which is dedicated to promoting contemporary art, protecting the environment and educating through its artist residency and sculpture park.
Founded in 2010 by New York-based artist Madeleine Paternot and Verbier-based artist Kiki Thompson, this pioneering organization has created an experimental, educational artist residency and sculpture park at 2,300 metres above sea level, inspired by the stunning Alpine landscape of Verbier in Switzerland.
We seek to support emerging and established talent by taking artists out of their comfort zone and encouraging development that might not be possible in the studio.
