Last night was the private reception and opening at Project Gallery for their latest exhibition. Rock/Fight , a pairing of iconic rock and boxing and wrestling figures. I had seen many of the Theo Ehret Olympic Auditorium fight images a few months ago at 722 Figueroa but seeing them alongside images from the same venue of Iconic punk shows was really interesting.(Not all of the images were taken at the Olympic Auditorium)
The Juxtaposition actually creates kind of a perfect symmetry. That era of Rock and fighting are very similar entertainment wise in a lot of ways.
Also some of my favorite photographers are represented including Mick Rock and Bob Gruen.
Henry Rollins was Hosting and as always he is just lovely and a very entertaining speaker.
If you are in the Hollywood area stop by the show is up until October 6th or go to : PROJECTLA for more info.
