This weekend Michael Miller invited me to the opening of his Photography Exhibit at KNOWN GALLERY to celebrate the release of his book, West Coast Hip-Hop: A History In Pictures.
A Los Angeles native, Miller is responsible for many the iconic photographs that define 1990s West Coast Hip-Hop: Eazy-E, Ice Cube, Warren G, Tupac, Snoop Dogg, Cypress Hill, et al… With thousands of portraits and over 300 album covers, his portfolio is like KDAY come to life, and I was honoured to meet such a prolific music historian and see his incredible work.
The exhibit was only open to the public this weekend, but you can buy Michael Miller’s book at Over The Edge, and you can find my photos from the opening reception at The Cobrasnake.

I photographed Mr. Brainwash (Thierry Guetta) in Hollywood last week. We talked about my photos of the party at his studio last month and his exhibition that opens tonight.

The problem facing modern man now is compounded by the increasing power of technology and its misuse by those in power who wish only to control. The mentality of people who are motivated by profits at the expense of human needs is perfect for the computer. Computers are completely rational. They save time and money. They can keep records of every transaction. Money is the opposite of magic. Art is magic. The worlds of art and money are constantly intermingling. To survive this mixture the magic in art has to be applied in new ways. Magic must always triumph.

Glenn Ligon — Gold When Black Wasn’t Beautiful #1, 2007 The Rubell Family Collection.
Glenn Ligon is one of my favorite artists — from subject matter to medium, his work is perfection. My 2012 collection goal is to own an original piece of his work.
