1970년대에, 사진작가 휴 홀랜드는 때때로 거칠지만 항상 햇빛이 잘 드는 남부 켈리포니아를 배경으로 급성장하는 스케이트보드의 문화를 훌륭하게 포착했다. 이전에 한 번도 출판된 적이 없는 이 컬렉션은 젊은 스케이트보더들이 가뭄에 시달리는 남부 캘리포니아의 콘크리트 배수구와 텅 빈 수영장, 멀홀랜드 드라이브(Mulholland Drive)의 앞바다에서 서핑을 하는 어린 스케이트 보더들을 기록한 흑백 사진들은 스케이트보드 라이프스타일과 문화의 기원을 떠올리게 한다.

In the 1970s, photographer Hugh Holland masterfully captured the burgeoning culture of skateboarding against a sometimes harsh but always sunny Southern California landscape. This never-before-published collection showcases his black-and-white photographs that document young skateboarders sidewalk surfing off Mulholland Drive in concrete drainage ditches and empty swimming pools in a drought-ridden Southern California. From suburban backyard haunts to the asphalt streets that connected them, this was the place that inspired the legendary Dogtown and Z-Boys skateboarders. With their requisite bleached-blond hair, tanned bodies, tube socks and Vans, these young outsiders evoke the sometimes reckless but always exhilarating origins of skateboarding lifestyle and culture. Hugh Holland is a Los Angeles–based photographer and author of Locals Only. He is represented by M+B gallery in Los Angeles.
