Reflection, art and Engadine
This is the name of the latest calendar by photographer Peter Vann, who has once again come up with something special: his abstract art reflects the Engadine landscapes.
Accompanying this calendar by Peter Vann is a text by Christian Jott Jenny, Mayor of St. Moritz, which we reproduce here in full:
Peter Vann needs no introduction. As a pioneer of modern automobile photography, his pictures have long since circulated around the world a million times over. The fact that he moved his main residence from Paris to the Engadine at the end of the nineties and started photographing mountains, is a gift for our whole valley. All the more so because he runs a small but excquisite gallery in S-chanf. After all, art and culture cover the Engadine like new snow! But Peter Vann doesn't just deal in art; he lives with it. Who else brings works of art personally to the Diavolezza at 3000 metres above sea level or to the Corvatsch, to merge them with the Engadine mountains? That is exactly what Peter has done for this calendar, thus creating a new dimension: a symbiosis of refined art and archaic nature. The mountains reflected in mirror image by thse works enable a whole new perspective as only possible with such a creative process. Once again, Peter Vann has succeeded in making the unseen visible - indeed Vanntastic, some would say.
