The brothers have gained international fame, displaying their work in exhibitions in major cities in the U.S. and Europe, including Deitch Projects in New York and Tate Modern in London. (en)
  • Part 3 of the Skate and Create series explores "the skaters' gaze"—the way a skateboarder looks at the urban environment in a completely different way from others: to be experienced rather than just be used. Includes interviews with musicians Ian MacKaye and Thurston Moore, pro skater Tommy Guerrero and Fausto Vitello . (en)
