Building a longstanding partnership over the years, the public library network and Cosanostra Skatepark have managed to bridge the gap between literature and skating. Their latest exhibition focuses on skateboarding and urban culture, bringing together a collection of books at the skatepark for all to see. All of the books involved in the exhibition will also be available to loan from the library, including a more general look at urban art, graffiti, music and photography.The launch involved a broad look at skateboarding with films showing an artistic point of view such as Hybridization (Fred Mortagne), Format Perspective (Phil Evans) and Topographie Anecdotée Du Skateboard (Raphaël Zarka) as well as photography by Port Land (Eric Antoine), D.I.Y (Richard Gilligan) and East Of The Adriatic (Bertrand Trichet and Sergej Vutuc).
