Warhol is more popular than ever with this most recent NARS make up collection out November 1, 2012 which I will be in line for. Look at these pieces, I will be buying ALL regardless if I want the make up or not. But, I'm pretty sure I will since NARS is one of the best brand on the market. And, as of this Sunday, the collectors edition Campbell's soup cans will be debuting at Target. Yes, it's actual soup, but I'll be saving / "collecting" mine. (There are four collector edition cans that will be lining the shelves along side all the regular red and white cans.) That's just the beginning this fall for Warhol this fall... Have a look at a recent article I found by Lily Nima (NY Times), on the NARS make up collection....
Combining Warhol’s
well-documented love of makeup with that of the brand founder and creative
director, François Nars, the 29-piece offering aims to capture the spirit of
Warhol — and his many muses, including Edie Sedgewick, Debbie Harry and Candy
Darling — through more than just the use of recognizable imagery. “What I loved
about [Warhol's] world was that he took elements from the past and made them
his own. That’s what we have done with this collection — taken Andy’s ‘world’
and made it modern,” Nars explains. “The colors are also directly linked to the
makeup.” This desire to project forward is evident throughout, with product
development innovations abundant (like printed eye shadow palettes with every
color filled through to the pan), as well as never-before-seen applications of
Warhol’s works (including a “Kiss”-wrapped soup can) by the former Interview
editorial director turned creative consultant Fabien Baron.
The collection arrives in stores in time for the 25th anniversary
of the Pop artist’s passing, and will be released in two parts: core products
on Oct. 1 at Sephora and holiday-focused kits and palettes onnarscosmetics.com on Nov. 1."
And, of course one of my most favorite street art photos ever I shot in February 2010 in the Meat Packing District by Mr. BrainWash.
