MOCA – Art in the Streets

MOCA – Art in the Streets

Pretty cool deal for the skateboarding / graffiti art world up in LA this week. MOCA LA is showing Art in the Streets, which features artwork from numerous big names in the skate / street art scene including Kieth Haring, Mister Cartoon, Lance Mountain, Basquiat, Ed Templeton, Twist, Amaze and others. Also included are an informative timeline of the history of Dogtown & CR Stecyk.

Transworld Skateboarding has a little write up on opening night as does HybeBeast. Pretty cool deal, we’ll be checking it out in early May for sure.

Also at the event, Nike SB partnered with MOCA to create a skate-able art installation created by Lance Mountain & Geoff McFetridge. They’ve also got some limited edition t shirts by Lance Mountain, CR Stecyk III, Neckface & Futura (which are probably already sold out & on ebay for $500 a pop). Anyways, it looks pretty cool, too.
