Levi’s® Film Workshop has recently premiered a film series based on food, called “The Hunger”, in conjunction with the Art in the Streets exhibition at The Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. Three films were screened, based on the three stages of food and cooking: Growing, Preparing, and Serving. The film below, “Feast of Fury”, is an action film based on a popular food truck in Los Angles, Koogi BBQ, that has beef with a competing truck. English subtitles with extremely fast Spanish dubs creates the illusion of an old Times Square Kung-Fu flick.

About Shepard Fairey:

Shepard Fairey is the man behind OBEY GIANT, the graphics that have changed the way people see art and the urban landscape. What started with an absurd sticker he created in 1989 while studying at the Rhode Island School of Design has since evolved into a worldwide street art campaign, as well as an acclaimed body of art.

Levi’s® and Opening Ceremony are set to launch their third collaborative project this month entitled “Levi’s® Chambray by Opening Ceremony”.

Fresh on the heels of their Photo Workshop at Deitch Gallery, Levi’s has opened up a new Premium concept store in the Meatpacking District at 414 West 14^th St., just past 9^th Ave. Continuing with the all-American theme, the shop has a modern Western set-up that has a quaint feel to it from the Pendleton Native American blankets to the saloon style tailoring nook towards the back of the store. Levi’s maximized the use of their space so that everything was aesthetically pleasing while, at the same time, not making the store feel too cluttered. No waste of space, done in good taste. Make sure to check out the all of the dope premium offerings at the new shop soon.

The LTD fam had the opportunity to attend the unveiling of Levi’s Men’s & Women’s collections for 2011 at the Levi’s Photography Workshop this past Thursday, November 4th, at the Deitch Gallery.  Free alcoholic beverages were provided along with a performance by the British band The Duke Spirit.  Their new washing technique for jeans saves 40.6 litres of water per jean, hence the empty gallons of water displayed above the stage.  In addition to showcasing their new line of clothing, they also had a rental area for vintage cameras where participants were encouraged to print and display their work on the wall adjacent from the rental space.  Great execution and event well done Levi’s, much props.
