You know Terry Richardson, he’s the one who you’re never sure whether he’s an insanely talented, super-cool photographer superstar – or your semi-naked creep uncle who gets lucky with his crappy old point-and-click Kodak. You know Hollywood, it’s the glitzy home of showbiz, the place where dreams are made – or a seedy, über-kitsch hotbed of faded glamour, gangsters and semi-naked hipsters.

So, when Richardson announces his first LA solo-show – at ever-cool OHWOW – is called TERRYWOOD; you kinda know what you’re gonna get. And get it in abundance you do. TERRYWOOD is all the gaudy, broken dreamed, neon-hellhole wonderfulness you could possibly ask for. And more.
