‘TO ALL MY FRIENDS’ PHOTOS BY PATRICK O’ DELL
Friday, April 18 at Antisocial (2425 Main St, alley entrance) 8pm Vancouver
Patrick O’Dell is a downtown New York-based photographer. Professionally, Patrick has traveled the world as a senior staff photographer for Thrasher and currently holds the title of Photo Editor for Vice Magazine in New York (also see his Vice TV’s Epicly Later’d at http://www.vbs.tv/shows.php?show=412470155 .
O’Dell shoots skaters skating, hangers hanging, and up-too-late, out-too-often night dwellers doing what comes naturally. Somehow amid all the black eyes, crowded dance floors, beat-up hotel rooms, and beautiful famous ladies, O’Dell manages to keep the scene honest. This candid intimacy with his subject matter combined with his poetic eye for finding beauty in even the grimiest of scenes give Patrick’s work a natural style that is truly his own.
“In an era of turbulence and uncertainty, Altamont emerged as a pivotal moment in youth culture, when idealism and anarchy rode together on the same horse and no one knew for certain who was holding the reins.” Check Altamont at http://altamontapparel.com/, Color Magazine at http://www.colormagazine.ca/, Timebomb Trading Inc at http://www.timebombtrading.com , Vice at http://www.viceland.com/, & Antisocial at http://www.antisocialshop.com,
