COMUNE // DROP CITY - ALEXIS GROSS


NY based COMUNE/Drop City contributor Alexis Gross recently posted some new photos from a day trip she made to the Jersey Shore. Check out the fun and debauchery!
NY watering hole Max Fish decided to do a pop-up bar down at the infamous Jersey Shore. When my friend Kristine (seen drinking beer against a stripper pole at 12pm) invited me down there, I simply answered with a “fuck yes”. We took a party bus with not only one but two stripper poles, a giant cooler for beers, “VIP lounge” covered in tribal design, and a bus driver who allowed weed to be smoked. We cracked our beers and were on our way from the Lower East Side Max Fish location. Right away people were going nuts and jumping on the poles and swinging around to DJ Nelleke’s music. When we arrived we recieved two drink tickets. As soon as I saw the “Bucket of Rum” drink option on the menu, I knew two were all I’d need. Eventually Kristine and I made our way down to the boardwalk to find our friends at the Pinball Museum. The museum had every amazing game of pinball available for unlimited play with admission. I hopped the turnstyle after eating the grossest pulled pork sandwich and played some pin ball. As the sun started to set, we made our way back to the beach bar and Nelleke’s music got better and better. While we were all dancing, fireworks started to go off in the sky overhead. My friends and I ran down to the shoreline to smoke some weed and watch the fireworks go off. Finally, we got back to the Lower East Side around 1 a.m. only to roll up and find out that everyone still wanted to party and catch the last call at the Fish. Best day ever!! -Alexis Gross

COMUNE // Alexis Gross Visit


Last week New Yorker, photographer, and COMUNE/Drop City contributor Alexis Gross stopped by our office for a visit.
Alexis was in town covering the Shake Junt premier for Color Magazine. We picked her up at the airport and immediately brought her to In-and-Out Burger for lunch. Once we got back to the office we gave her a tour and got her laced up with some new COMUNE clothes. We allowed her to have some Personal Pyramid time and then we brought her to our neighbor the LA GUN CLUB. Alexis had never shot a gun before and like a trooper she stepped up and fired an AK-47 and a .357. She was a little shaken at first but quickly got a hang of it and was hitting the paper target with ease.
Alexis Gross is a photographer, artist, and curator. She has identified with a natural passion for taking pictures and an artful future has become apparent. Her pictures are a true extension of her everyday existence, and it’s obvious to those who know her, that what you see is what you get. Feisty, private, eccentric, and amused by records, marijuana, motorcycles, skateboarding and older men, Alexis is a rare bird. Her connection to the skate industry has provided fodder for a portfolio of unique and absorbing imagery. Lifestyle and portraits showcase a fresh and exciting perspective, and Gross has garnered a great amount of respect from all those she’s worked with, both subjects and colleagues alike. Alexis has been featured in and contributed to high profile publications including: Color (Canada), Wow (France), Thrasher (America), Foam (America), Urban Outfitters (America), Complex (America), and Monster Children (Australia). Recently, Alexis debuted her art at a show that she also curated at KCDC in Brooklyn. She has appeared in art shows all over America and Canada, solo and group. Collaborating with retailers, art collectives, and other creatives, Alexis is continuously inspirited by her friends and surrounds.
