One Way or Another tour

Next week, COLOR embarks on a tour like no other. With support from Vans and in a Volcom van we're hitting the road for two weeks of skating and art shows. More info on the shows and the folks involved in the coming days. We'll be doing some updates from the road so keep checking back.

There have been countless exhibitions of the art inspired by skateboardculture. Decks and shoes adorned with the paint splatter from our favorite skaters from yesteryear. Showing that not only does skateboarding breed creativity, but with it astounding prowess. In recent years professional skaters such as Ed Templeton, Jason Lee, Mark Gonzales, Chris Pastras and Jason Adams have carved their own ways into the world of art with favorable reviews.  Now and for the first time ever Color Magazine brings together the artists who make up the skateboarding world today, as we see it. Representing the wide spectrum of the industry, these artists come together for the pure love of a skate-trip.

Greg ‘PNut’ Galinsky (Vans), Andrew Pommier (Momentum Wheels, RVCA), Michael Leon (Commonwealth Stacks), Mark ‘Fos’ Foster (Herion Skateboards/Altamont Clothing), Todd Bratrud (High 5/Nike), Ben Horton (Slave Skateboards), Donny Miller (Vans/Skate Mental), Michael Sieben (Volcom/Roger) and Mat O’Brien (Krooked/SLAP) will be traveling from around the country and the U.K. to three cities showing the wonderful and inspirational work they do. Others like Dennis McNett (Anti-Hero/Vans), Travis Millard (Fudge Factory Comics), Geoff McFetridge (Solitary Arts/Girl), Andy Jenkins (Girl), Matt Irving (adidas, Delphi), and Eric Anthony (4 Star Clothing/Girl) are contributing art for these one-night shows starting in Los Angeles at the Heavyweight Gallery, then Escapist in Kansas City, MO ending at the No Comply Skate Shop in Austin, TX.
