Nike Lightning Bolts Preview

Art & Design, Features December, 4 2008
by Harrison Boyce

The final Nike Lightning Bolts art show is going down next week in Los Angeles and for the show, they have asked 25 new artists to create plates for the show. Sierra at Nike hooked up a nice little preview of some of the new plates. Check out a bunch of photos after the jump and keep reading for more info about the show.

All art will be exhibited at the Montablan from Dec. 10th-Dec 14th. The weeklong online auction will kick off the evening of Dec. 10th, ending Dec. 14th. To place a bid, view a photo gallery of all art, and read the artist statements go to: www.athleterecoveryfund.com/lightningbolts. Besides art there will be music, drinks, and a special screening of the Nike 6.0 BMX Movie, Writing on the Wall.
