JUXTAPOZ MAGAZINE 15 YR ANNIVERSERY
I hit up the Juxtapoz Magazine 15 year anniversary hosted by the Soul Assassins in LA the past week. Lots of great art and cars in the house SA style. Here’s some pics and yeah I know I’m dumb late with this stuff
WK Interact
David Cho
The Gonz
Shepard Fairey…..A pause for the cause right here….Shep took a beating at the hands of AP and Getty Images. I got a email that broke down his lack of coming clean on which pic he actually used for the Hope campaign poster. Basically I could care less Shepards heart was in the right place, he altered on some level the balance of power with his engaging campaign poster so from me to anyone I support Shepard and his cause 100 pct….The mass apology note wasn’t needed to any I don’t believe Sheps credibility is damaged one dam bit…..
Faile
Shag I believe
Slick this painting is great….. I need one of these for the pad…Slick is criminally under rated as a painter to me every time I see one of his canvas’ I am psyched……Recognize Slick is the OG!
Big Daddy Roth….Great artist/ idiot of a person…Love his stuff I was bummed when I heard he was a bigot and a full on pecker wood white power dude…..disappointing fact
Swoon, Larry Clark photo and unknown piece which is beautiful….Swoon is amazing,Larry Clark’s book Tulsa genre defining but his later work including kids is borderline exploitive and borderline pedophilia in my eyes…..I could never cosign him emphatically as a person or a artist he walks some very uncomfortable ground to me and his films are awful anyone see Bully? Terrible man
David Ellis pure genius
MQ my favortie bomber in the last 20 years…Cat got ups and style
Mac the master……He is sick
I should know who this is but I don’t my bad and I have a host of other pics I am going to post if anyone knows who the artist is out there in blog land please tell me so I can give credit where credit is due
Another great painting but I don’t know who did it unfortunately
It is really a shame I don’t know who did this one it’s great
Pushead like but not Pushead…Who is it please tell me!
Another nice piece I wish I knew who the artist was really I do!
Another no title I suck I know who this is too….urghhhh
Todd James like but not him I suspect….Good piece funny but I have no clue who did it
A few dope pieces here….Artists names please somebody anybody?
Another gem from another person I want to give credit too
This is sick I want this piece now if I only knew who did it
?
Again I am clueless but now for some cars!
The homies were in the house. The Soul Assassins of course! Estevan Oriole
That’s Mr Cartoon but you already know this right? Anyways had a blast rolled with OG Olson, had a drink of 5 and checked out some tight art and cars what else could a NYer visiting LA ask for right?
Enjoy

Dante, Ed roth was a racist too? Don’t you mean Von Dutch? If that’s true about Ed Roth, that’s kind of a bummer.
