Oakley presented Thrasher Magazine’s 30 Year Anniversary this past week at The Lab in Costa Mesa, CA as part of a block party that included the Love & Guts art show, as well as a special Oakley event held inside of BLENDS. A makeshift gallery was constructed out of an unoccupied store location and it was filled with an amazing range of photos from the publication’s 30 year history. Photos were presented in a chronological order to give a timeline feel. For those not in attendance, take a look at our gallery, which goes in order from the beginning to the end of the exhibit. Also, be on the lookout for more coverage from this special one-night only block party event.

Not many have had such a big impact as Hedi Slimane in more than one creative discipline. He was considered the most influential menswear designer when working at Dior Homme and since leaving the brand, has build an impressive career as a photographer, being featured in every single reputable magazine that is out there.

This week Hedi Slimane opened his first West Coast solo exhibition – California Song at MoCA Los Angeles.

“This exhibition is dedicated to Slimane’s California period, which began with the Frenchman’s visit in 2007. The black-and-whites are heavy on contrast, and oily, saturated blacks that absorb as much light from the environment as possible. The subjects are seemingly dispassionate and frozen in ordinary moments, exuding visceral and honest presentations of their humanity. Some of the personalities documented include Ariel Pink, Beck, Ruscha, Gore Vidal, Sky Ferreira, and one of my favorite series of his to-date is that of Frances Bean Cobain.

A big part of the experience is the sound of No Age. Dean Spunt and Randy Randall have fast become the darlings of the local music cool crowd and professed ambient sounds live in the space as observers looked on.”

With the sweltering days of summer upon the city of New York, there’s really only one way to keep cool, by taking it to the street. In the tradition of famed street photographers Martha Cooper and Jamel Shabazz, Brooklyn based shooter Noah Ritter used only film with no retouching to capture the annual NYC tradition of moving the party to the stoops, corners and backyards when it’s literally too hot to be anywhere else. Shot in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn on the dominoe hot block of Macon between Malcolm X and Patchen, this is the epitome of “Hot in the City” with a Dominican twist.
