Inspired by the architecture and design of mid-20th-century European ski resorts, Winter Show showcases Demisch Danant’s recent acquisitions that blend mid-century leisure, modernism, and alpine luxury. Aprés-ski traditions and social gatherings gained prominence in the French Alps during the 1950s and were fueled by the post-war economic boom, advancements in transportation that made travel more affordable, and the rise of consumer culture through mass media, which advertised destinations to wide audiences via travel magazines and the growing popularity of television. In Winter Show, Demisch Danant welcomes visitors into the interiors of an era both singular and bygone, to explore our collection of French design from the 1950s to 1970s alongside contemporary pieces that share the same vision.
