June: All American Trash Skate Deck Exhibit
It's been a hot minute since we had an all skate deck exhibit (2005's "Three Inches From the Street") so when Chicago based curator All American Trash approached us with a proposal, we jumped (ollied? kick-flipped?) at the chance!
And oh boy, did they come through....this is a stunning collection with not a single dud in the mix!
Join us Saturday, June 7, 2-8pm for the opening reception for "Hit the Streets!" — AAT and many of artists will be around to chat, plus enjoy a live set by DJ Sean Doe from 2 to 4pm while you browse the art.
Decks will be available first to in-person attendees of the exhibit, beginning at 10am on opening day. Online sales will be offered to our Gallery Previews List members after the opening, sign up at https://previews.rotofugi.com

About the Guest Curator
Born from the underground art scene, over the last few years All American Trash (AAT) has been a small but vital movement in the Chicago art world created by Chicago-based artist Alejandro Martell aka Underseagravy. Since the first AAT exhibit in October 2021 at Chicago Distilling Company, AAT has successfully curated massive events at a variety of spaces such as Epiphany Center of Arts, All Star Press, Reggie’s Rock Club, and The Order of the Seven Corners.
The main goal AAT sets out to achieve is expanding the Chicago art scene to new artists as well as highlighting people disenfranchised by the scene itself. That means we welcome a wide range of diverse mediums and artistic expressions as well. From gouache to glass, to decks that are completely hand carved to long decks and ones that even are broken and snapped in half, we’ve had it all. We always push for artists to have fun and really express themselves when it comes to this exhibition!
