Join author, curator, and art historian Jim Daichendt on September 4 at 4:30 PM at the Wex as he explores the significance of San Diego–based clothing company Tribal Streetwear. This talk is part of AAEP's continued collaborations with the Wexner Center for the Arts. Daichendt will discuss Tribal and the Cultural Legacy of Streetwear, a book he recently contributed to and edited. He uses Tribal, which launched in 1989, as a lens to examine the history of streetwear and the cultural backdrop of Southern California subcultures. The book addresses the important influences of skateboarding, surfing, graffiti, street art, hip-hop, punk, lowriders, and other aspects of street culture on the brand and the clothing style as a whole. Learn about Daichendt’s curatorial- and community-engaged practice through the conversation. Free tickets required to attend.
