Today was spent down the block from SURU at 6812 Melrose Ave. where 30 artists showed up for The Vader Project catalog signing. The turnout was huge, and some notable artists present were AXIS, Estevan Oriol, Jesse Hernandez, Paul Frank and our own Joe Hahn.
Afterwards AXIS, EO and I grabbed late lunch across the street from the venue.

The Hoverboard is a project made by Nils guadagnin, a young french artist. This work is born in 2008 for an exhibition named “Back To the future”. It is a copy of the hoverboard from the movie Back to the Future II. Integrated into the board and the plinth is an electromagnetic system which levitates the board. A laser system stabilises the object in the air.
