The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Los Angeles, opens a new exhibition this Saturday (12th Nov), presenting the work of Hedi Slimane, titled ‘California Song’. The show centres around the photographer’s ‘California period’, a time in which he extended his explorations of urban youth culture and artistic communities through installations of photographic essays, exhibitions and publications. In recent years Slimane has built up a global reputation first appearing on our radar as designer for Dior Homme. Since then he’s documented emerging musicians and artists, brought out publications about British punk-rock and even become synonymous with the term ‘online photo diary’ by establishing and popularising the technique with his own diary created in 2006.
