The New Modern Hair, an upcoming solo exhibition by Spanish artist Silvia Prada, is an artistic representation of the subtle nuances and cues that help define the male persona, identity and representation within the parameters of visual and popular culture. With her book The New Modern Hair: A Styling Chart as departure point, Prada has created a series of drawings, poster montages and large-scale murals, capturing the typecasting and idealized character building that has become ingrained in our minds through media, pop culture and iconography. An accompanying magazine and first issue of The New Modern Hair will be published by cultureEDIT and available February 1st at select retailers and newsstands worldwide. Featuring text by Miguel Figueroa, US Editor of Fanzine137, Candy and EY! Magateen. The New Modern Hair will be on view from January 18, 2013 to February 26, 2013 at the Pacific Design Center, 8687 Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles, CA
