Clic Gallery – Surf/Skate Show

Just opened at Clic Gallery is an extremely seasonal appropriate exhibition for those who ride, the Surf/Skate Show. The Surf/Skate Show showcases the hedonistic and unrestricted tendencies of the surf and skate lifestyle through a multi-medium exhibition incorporating works of various artists and surfers/skaters. Some of the works showcased includes a collage by surf king Tony Caramanico, photographer by Drew Carolan, Lyle Owerko and also limited edition collaborative Supreme skate decks designed by Takashi Murakami, Damien Hirst and Jeff Koons. If you are in town, this might be a good place to stop for a quick dose of art and air conditioning after a day of pushing about on the streets. The exhibition is currently open to public and will be running through September 5.

Mad Decent is the name of the Philadelphia-based record label spearheaded by Wesley Pentz, whose better known as Diplo, the Grammy-nominated producer of M.I.A.’s “Paper Planes.” Diplo also makes up one half of Major Lazer, along with the UK’s Switch. As an influential label that’s home to Blaqstarr (who has also produced many tracks for M.I.A.), South Rakkas Crew, and Rusko (to name a few), Mad Decent is often ahead of the curve in new music. In this collaboration with eS, Diplo’s Erving model features a tonal black upper complimented by lime green hits on the eyelets, laces, and the diplodocus logo stitched on the heel. For the Mad Decent Taido model, a reggae-inspired, yellow, red, and green gradient fade is used on the collar and heel portion of the shoe and on the “GET MAD” logo embossed on the tongue. These drop soon at your local eS retailer, so support progressive independent music and look fresh all at once with these models.
