Tony Alva – “ZIA” (detail)

Last night Tony Alva hosted an amazing art show at the La Brea Alva Skates store.  Die Posers Die showed original pieces from skate legends such as, Alva, Hosoi, Steve Caballero, Jason Adams, Lance Mountain, Pat Ngoho and more.  We showed up around 6:30 for the 7:00 opening and there was already a large diverse crowd lined up.

The posters were each signed by each artist, and one of the reasons for the hold up outside.
