CRENSHAW SKATE CLUB – JUNETEENTH COLLECTION

Posted on 2024-05-13

Crenshaw Skate Club has revealed its latest commemorative collection and it’s one that the brand’s founder Tobey McIntosh feels particularly proud of. In the California-centered outfitter’s Juneteenth delivery, the apparel pays tribute to prominent figures in black history and, specifically, pioneering black skaters who paved the way for brands like CSC.

Across a cohesive presentation of garments spanning graphic tees, button-downs and other cut-and-sew pieces, CSC intermingles both vintage and contemporary African diasporic imagery throughout.

Specifically, the collage button-up shirt stands out amidst the foray and really signals the intermingling of imagery from both time periods, leaning into an all-around grid-like pattern.

LOEFAH AND TEKLIFE – JUMP START

Posted on 2024-05-13

UK Bass titan and Swamp 81 label boss Loefah makes his Teklife debut with Jump Start, three new tracks full of raw house energy. Taking cues from the Chicago tradition of feral 909 jams, these pummeling rhythms are met with eerie atmospheres and haunting speech. The late ghetto house godfather DJ Deeon adds his touches to the title track, stretching its acid squelches out and taking them even farther into space. It’s pure warehouse music, trippy yet ominous, perfect for getting lost in a dark corner at a rave.

MINORU NOMATA – CONTINUUM

Posted on 2024-05-13

Nomata’s paintings are influenced by the ambience of generative electronic music and the landscapes of retro-futuristic science fiction films and literature. Since the 1980s, the artist has structured his body of work through series, each completed over nearly two years,
beginning with his earliest series ‘Still’.
In his latest exhibition, which expands upon the ‘Continuum’ series first shown at Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery in 2023, he depicts immense hydrological formations, icebergs, frozen waterfalls and glaciers, interacting with manmade mechanical interventions.

Opposite – Continuum-19, 2024

Exhibition runs through to August 24th, 2024

YORGOS LANTHIMOS – DEAR GOD, THE PARTHENON IS STILL BROKEN

Posted on 2024-05-13

The God in the title of the book alludes to what Bella (Emma Stone) calls Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe) throughout the movie, whose decrepit face mirrors the likes of Frankenstein and to which Void co-founders João Linneu and Myrto Steirou replicate in appearance through the publication’s graphic cover. Linneu and Steirou recalled being “amazed” when being invited to see the sets during the film’s production. “Everything was there: good photography and an artist we felt compelled to work with. These two factors don’t always align.”

Dear God, the Parthenon is still broken will be released in three separate editions: the first is just the book for $60 USD, while the Special Edition is limited to 100 copies with a fine art print signed by Lanthimos for $392 USD and the Portfolio edition, limited to just 30 units (plus four APs) includes two fine art prints numbered and signed by Lanthimos for $1,580 USD.
