Respected New York artist KRINK made the long trip to Russia to attend this year’s Faces & Laces symposium which included a number of educational opportunities to the burgeoning Russian street culture scene. With the help of KRINK, many eager faces were interested to grasp and become familiar with many elements of culture largely unknown to them outside of the Internet. Check a short write-up via KRINK over at his blog.

Joining China as an emerging representative in the world of street culture, this year’s Faces & Laces exhibition is set to take place in the Russian capital of Moscow. The country has not been without the focus from seasoned industry veterans as past visits have included the likes of Paul Mittleman of Stussy and Hiroshi Fujiwara. The two-day exhibition will take place on April 24th and 25th at the All-Russian Exhibition Center Legendary Pavilion No. 32 – “Kosmos”. The free event will include a variety of brands and sneakers on display alongside art (including KRINK), photography and music.
