Mike Giant Is A Dirty Old Skateboarder

by The Editors on July 20, 2012

1 GiantflierTonight at San Francisco’s Fecal Face Gallery graphic artist, illustrator and tattooist Mike Giant officially opens his show Confessions Of An Old Dirty Skateboarder. The show features “a wide assemblage of recent drawings and also a rare opportunity to view Giant’s personal collection of skateboards he illustrated the graphics for, including boards from his early career.”

Here’s what Giant says:

“I’m a product of my generation. I grew up through the 80s and was drawn to the punk rock and hip-hop cultures simultaneously”, Giant said in a recent interview. “I threw myself in headfirst. A lot of those things were about personal expression, and also an anti-establishment attitude like, “We don’t need you, we have our own thing.” That’s the backbone of who I am to this day”.

The opening begins at 7 PM. The show runs from July 20 – August 12, 2012. Fecal Face Gallery is located at 2277 Mission St. in San Francisco, California. For the rest of the info click the link.
