The Art Show: 14 Snowboard Graphics by Maks Eidelson

W26/27
18 OCT 26
OP ART SHOW
16–18 OCT. COMPLETE.

Fourteen graphics, one room.

For three days in October, Maks Eidelson's snowboard graphics hung on the walls of TOGETHERHEADS Studio on East 4th Avenue in Vancouver: fourteen he made for Endeavor over the last two seasons, plus a zine of the alternates and the directions that didn't make it onto a board. Friday night was the opening. Saturday and Sunday the doors opened at 10, with coffee by Max.

01 — The work

Finished graphics, alternate colourways, unused directions.

Maks runs his own studio in Vancouver, doing art direction, graphic design, photography and film. The show put his finished board graphics on the wall next to the colourways and directions behind them.

02 — The room

The install, photographed empty.

Ryan Voigt (@voigtryan) photographed the room on Friday 16 October: the boards on the wall, the prints across the floor, the poster and the table. In the poster's words, the show brought together "finished graphics and artwork alongside alternate colourways, unused directions, cropped details, and elements of the visual language developed across the collections."
