Being deemed “Daniel Harold Sturt”-worthy isn’t exactly the most common thing in skateboarding. But again, with his groundbreaking part in Plan B’s Second Hand Smoke, Jeremy Wray raised as quite the extraordinary pro, from the mid-’90s on. He’s discussing his own favorite pro-models on Memory Screened.

We are very pleased to be able to release our latest boards and tee’s today featuring artwork by L.A based artist Steven Harrington, London illustrator Matthew Green and myself.

Also,  we would really appreciate your support in helping us get the word out by giving the boards or edit a small mention on your site / blogs. That would be amazing.

We’ve just launched the online art shop for the latest Contributor show titled “One way or Another” If you haven’t heard about it, the simple story is that we’ve asked 50 amazing artists to donate their time to create unique skateboards for you! Instead of a traditional artshow in which only one article is available for purchase, artists have been asked to donate their time and skills to make up to ten pieces of art! They are available first come first serve, More about the show here www.wearecontributors.com (or click on the image)

Illustrators Steve Rack and David Cousens collaborated to create Robot 27 issues 186-188. Check ‘em out here: http://bit.ly/axS7g0

I am having an exhibition on July 16th at the POVevolving Gallery in LA entitled SUMMERWINTER.

I began thinking about the  SUMMERWINTER concept about a year ago. It was a natural seasonal progression after my Autumn inspired show at colette in Paris. I wanted to convey the way that seasons are different in the Northern and Southern hemispheres, and how opposites attract… That feeling that one could not exist without the other, and that things all become one in the end.

For this show, I took a minimalist approach in my work, which was inspired by my husband. I have always been about color, but in this show I kept the pallet strictly to black, white and grey. I also experimented with other textiles and media for this show… Along with my sewn creatures, I created a limited edition Ombré dyed scarf to symbolize black and white becoming one (grey). My husband and I also created a short film that will be shown at the exhibition.

The entire show centers around a single love story between the characters Summer andWinter, who fall in love. Even though they live on opposite sides of the world, they consummate their love, and perform a seasonal dance of love for eternity.

Grey Magazine have just launched issue one in digital form. While the focus at Grey is to make a quality print magazine, they realise that not everyone can get hold of a copy, particularly those outside the UK. This is why Grey have decided to make the magazine available online roughly one month after the print copies are sent out.

Click here for the online version of the first issue. The print version of the second issue is due out in August.

You always hear of the O’Bradoviches and the Godoys, but H-Street had a totally under-the-radar graphic designer up its sleeve back in the late ’80s: a random Italian dude named Francesco Albertini, who went to the US to live the American dream and ended up designing one of skateboarding’s most famous logos… His journey is summed-up on Memory Screened.
