The Balance of Opposites RVCA is the brainchild of company Founder, PM Tenore. Transcending the boundaries of traditional action sports apparel, RVCA is a design-driven lifestyle brand free from passing trends. Appearing as naturally on the shelves of boutiques as on those of a local skateshop, RVCA is brought together by a group of like-minded individuals from various subcultures, a collaboration of sorts, a lifestyle within itself. PM Tenore's intention from the very beginning was to create a platform for RVCA, which combines art, music, fashion and a modern lifestyle, all in an original way. At the forefront of this vision has been RVCA's Artist Network Program ("ANP"), a venture established to showcase the talents of accomplished as well as unknown artists who inspire our generation and push the boundaries of creative excellence. Established to promote the genuine integrity of RVCA's subcultures while simultaneously giving back to the community, RVCA, in essence, has redefined the way the market views art and fashion as represented through the balance of opposites and how they coexist: water, oil; air, land; destruction, industrialization; art, science; foreign, domestic; order, chaos; past, present. For RVCA, it is about today, tomorrow and life as the big picture. It is about inspiring our generation, providing something of substance and culture, and above all doing it with integrity; as a united family and close-knit community.
