Nike’s much anticipated exhibition, Being True, curated by Aaron Rose and Emma Reeves, is opening tonight at the 114 LAB in Los Angeles. The exhibit is a celebration for the 22nd anniversary of the iconic Nike Dunk. The photographs exhibited will try to capture what the Dunk represents and how it has influenced, not only the streetwear industry, but our entire culture. The exhibition space is very simple and clean, giving way for the images to speak their message. However, the floor with its white, red, and black dots, gives an intriguing personality to the overall space. If you’re in the area, this is definitely worth checking out. In addition a special opening party was recently held with many big names in attendance from the likes of Tour de France marvel Lance Armstrong, to artists Kaws and Eric Haze among others.
