This past weekend my boyfriend was in a really cool photography show, and so I do what I do best… I blog about it. I think “blog about it” is kind of my motto.
The event was put on by Foundation Skateboards and was called the “Push Photography Exhibit”. Basically it was based on a super old photo that was on the cover of the Skateboard mag of a guy pushing (if you’ve seen someone skateboard, this is when they push off one foot to get moving), everyone in the exhibit was to enter a piece of someone pushing. Hence the name of the exhibit.
Each photo was being sold for $200 bucks and the proceeds all went to Just One Board, a charity that recycles skateboards and re-distribute them to under privileged kids. Cool, right?
It was hosted at a sick little art gallery that I never even knew existed, plus they provided free beer/wine. Which is always a nice little bonus (I don’t like when people host events and don’t provide the booze, pet peeve). It was great to see all these talented skateboarders coming together for a good cause & the turnout was insane. You could barely move around towards the end of the night, which is when we left cause I got claustrophobic .
I must say, I was a pretty proud to see my man’s art in the show. It was a hit. Not surprised in the least, he’s so talented (check out his site here)!!!!
+ the image that inspired it all!!! +
+ Zack scoping out all of the other great shots. +
+ my art show attire!! Snag my look: Ramones tee (I cut mine into a tank), white blazer (similar), silver cuff (similar), spike choker (similar), oversized clutch.
