Burton Madonna Ad

Burton Madonna Ad

Jager Di Paola Kemp Design, Burlington, Vermont, 1994

Description

Intended for small, regional snowboard publications, this ad soars above the blatant sexism and braggadocio that typify snowboard advertising. The ad outsmarted a culture consumed in one-upmanship with humor and unabashed confidence. By deconstructing the hype surrounding the undisputed Queen of Sleaze, it embraces a hand-made, raw composition that communicates an honest, quality vibe to the company's advantage.
