Critics Review
“Cult Los Angeles streetwear label Brain Dead gets the Rizzoli treatment in this highbrow ode to Californian skater aesthetics. Essentially a hardcover zine, Clothing for a Curious Life contains a collage of the artistic and pop cultural influences behind Kyle Ng and Ed Davis’s now eight-year-old brand (known for its collaborations with everyone from Lil Wayne to Magic the Gathering), as well as an archive of its best designs up until now. It would make the perfect gift for anyone with an extensive bootleg T-shirt collection.” —NEW YORK MAGAZINE
“Rizzoli has teamed up with LA based Brain Dead for this special book that chronicles Brain Dead’s continuously evolving brand. Founded by Kyle Ng and Ed Davis in 2014, Brain Dead quickly grew a global team of talented artists and designers going on to collaborate with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Marvel, NTS Radio, Reebok, Converse, A.P.C. and more. With every page the reader is treated to amazing visuals designed with inspiration from zine culture.” —DEFY NEW YORK
