How? During the annual \u2018Shapes in White\u2019 snow sculpture competition, artists from all over the world are called upon to transform the Ischgl ski resort into an impressive open-air snow gallery. The motto for 2022 is \u2018winter sport\u2019. It remains to be seen in January who creates the best sporty interpretation. From January 10th to January 14th, 2022, five selected pairs of artists from different nations will be spending five days creating a total of five snow sculptures across the ski resort, all up to 10m high. Good to know winter sports fans can watch over the shoulders of the industrious sculptors as they work in the Silvretta Arena. The most attractive work of art will be crowned the winner by the Ischgl jury on January 14th. A card featuring an explanation and the locations of the \u2018Shapes in White\u2019 can be obtained free-of-charge on-site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_2-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-135508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_2-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_2-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_2-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_2-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_2-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Artists from different nations compete for first place in snow sculpture carving competition \u201cShapes in White&#8221; at the 28th in Ischgl<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2018Shapes in White\u2019 \u2013 the idea behind the art project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what do we do with all the snow? Art \u2013 what else? The idea for the \u2018Shapes in White\u2019 snow sculpture project was born 29 years ago. Since then, sculptors from all over the world have been submitting their designs to the jury of the Ischgl snow sculpture competition each year. They then select the best and invite five pairs of artists to implement their ideas at the Silvretta Arena. The snow artists then have five days to create their 10m high snow masterpieces in the ski resort which spans 239 km of slopes. The motto is announced in advance and changes each year. A wide range of themes has already been imaginatively implemented featuring sculptures by the founders of the Silvrettaseilbahn AG for the 50<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary (2014), sea creatures (1995) and dragons (2012). This winter, winter sports fans can look forward to discovering interpretations of \u2018winter sport\u2019 as part of the 28<sup>th<\/sup> \u2018Shapes in White\u2019 snow sculpture competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_4-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-135522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_4-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_4-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_4-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_4-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/presse.tirol.at\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Formen-in-Weiss_2021_4-\u00a9-TVB-Paznaun-\u2013-Ischgl-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Bereits seit 29 Jahren findet der Schneeskulpturen-Wettbewerb \u201eFormen in Wei\u00df\u201c\u00a0 in Ischgl\u00a0 statt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Weitere Informationen unter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ischgl.com\/de\/Events\/Veranstaltungskalender\/Formen-in-Weiss-Motto-Wintersport_ed_7956899\">www.ischgl.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are oversized snowshoes, a ferocious ice hockey player, speedy bob-sleigh riders and a cold mini skier looking for \u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":41,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,1],"region":[100],"coauthors":[201],"class_list":["post-135561","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","category-unkategorisiert","region-paznaun-ischgl"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.1 -
