of LA's best underground photographers.

When: April 26, 2014 4pm-9pm

Where: KGB Studios 1640 N. Spring St, LA CA 90012

Why: To showcase a grittier side of life that often features lesser known

parts of the city and characters overlooked by the rush of society. To

provide a window into the original, non-commercial, side of graffiti and

street culture in Los Angeles. As the popularity of art in the streets

increases globally, so does the importance of documenting the origins

of graffiti in its purest form. If we don't record our history accurately, then

who will?

Please join us this Saturday, April 26, from 4pm to 9pm, @KGB gallery,

enjoy the art, food, and music provided by Dj Muzik77. Hope to see you

there.

Hildegardo ‘Japo’ Joya, Guardian of Raicilla’s Coastal Soul, Dies at 92

Japo had a presence that loomed large everywhere his raicilla landed, whether that was in one of Mexico’s most beloved cumbia mezcal bars, like Guadalajara’s Pare de Sufrir, where people order raicilla by name of the master distiller instead of brands they are associated with. Or in Torrance on Madre’s mezcal menu, where they still have 20 bottles left of a label Japo made for the restaurant. Like the greats in any craft, he created his own style of distilling that no other raicilla has come close to replicating.
