THIS Los Angeles is a gallery space we started with some friends one year ago. For the inaugural show we decided to invite all our friends to show one piece and it was a huge success (photos), over 800 people spilling out into the streets of Highland Park to try and catch a glimpse. We had a bunch of other shows throughout the year, some we had a hand in and some that we didn’t even make it to the openings. We never started the spot so we could be gallery owners, we just wanted to showcase our friends work and our interests in a nice space. I think we did a good job so far and are very excited for the upcoming year, kicking off with another huge group show… These Friends 2. Opening February 4th, 2011. Hope to see you all there/here sometime.
Here’s an outtake of a shoot we did of artist Lisa Solberg for Monster Children a little while back. The one they ran after the jump.

About a year ago the good folks at Anomaly came to us wondering if we had any photos from a concert they could license for a Motorola ad and the first thing we said was “we have a ton, but there’s no way we can get releases from all of those strangers. Why don’t we just throw a fake show?” And so we did. Above is our good pals Mickey Adams and Curtis Mead, that microphone wasn’t even plugged in.
More photos and the ad after the jump.

A Polaroid from October.
I promise this won’t turn into a car blog but wanted to share a photo of a new obsession. Filing this post under the “who cares” section.
Years ago we started putting up a cheap print for sale (it used to pay January’s rent) around the holidays as a thanks to people who check out our work/blog and here’s this years. This year is a photo of good buddy Jesse Spears dancing on Easter. It’s limited to 35 for $35, signed and numbered. We will be selling them at the “THIS Holiday” show this weekend at THIS Los Angeles. If there are any left we’ll put them up for sale here starting Monday.

Very honored to be in the final show at Monster Children‘s gallery in Sydney next month.
We started a Tumblr site for a place for all the random randomness to live.
Giant Artists was going to wait until their big group show at Space 15Twenty in December to sell the book, but due to high demand they have supplied THIS Gallery with some copies to sell both in the gallery and online. More after the jump.
