Respected former pro skater Steve Olson takes a different route with his creative inspirations through an upcoming exhibition titled “HANGIN’.” Set for the Known Gallery in Los Angeles, the seminal figure in both skate and punk sees post-modern work is an intertwinement of popular culture and its ailments of social decay. The critique of contemporary society comes on the heels of a demising culture due to the economic and social forces the general public is subjected to.

“My Art gives contemporary art a juvenile delinquent phase. It’s self-made style icons gleefully trashed conventions of beauty and society while pick pocketing from the coolest underground styles and beliefs of the previous centuries…” -Steve Olson
