Go see our friend, Estevan Oriol, open a show with his father, the uber-talented Eriberto, in NYC at a Carmichael pop-up space… the show was delayed due to Sandy, but it opens Friday, November 9th. All of our Estevan Oriol x Upper Playground product here.
Carmichael Gallery is pleased to announce Like Father, Like Son : NYC, a retrospective survey of works by renowned Los Angeles-based Chicano father and son photographers, Eriberto and Estevan Oriol. The exhibition debuted at Carmichael Gallery’s Culver City space in the fall of 2011. The New York edition of Like Father, Like Son will comprise fifteen limited edition black and white, color, silver gelatin and digital c-prints from each photographer, including works exhibited in Art in the Streets (April 17 – August 11, 2011) at The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA). The exhibition, which offers a dramatic taste of the urban California lifestyle, marks the first showing of the Oriols’ work side by side on the US east coast.
There will be an opening reception for Like Father, Like Son : NYC on November 9, from 6 to 8pm at 303 Tenth Ave in Chelsea. Both Eriberto and Estevan Oriol will be in attendance. The exhibition will run through November 24, 2012.

Love these shots by Estevan Oriol of Jessie Andrews in front of her portrait by David Choe.
Last week, David Choe took to the task of existing on Reddit for 24 hours straight. Doing a special video response format, Choe answered, entertained, and transformed himself into a classic entertainer in the tradition of Stern, Carson, Letterman, and, why not, Kaufman. Our good friend and collaborator, Estevan Oriol, documented the day.
Fresh off Estevan’s appearance in the new Die Antwoord video (where he taught those kids how to live a downtown Los Angeles lifestyle0, we just received some new Estevan Oriol x Upper Playground tees in our webstore. We have Rider, Ice Cream, and Catching Tags available now. Stay tuned for more in the coming days…
