Art/Fashion Mix Fix: More Warhol At Uniqlo - Get It Now.

Love your art and fashion to mix?  I do, obviously.   Here is another great mix by the Andy Warhol Foundation + UNIQLO store.   The T-shirts and tanks for women and men are more than affordable with Uniqlo's great quality, most pieces run about $19.  (The Urban Outfitters + Love Me (Curtis Kulig) was also priced well, unfortunately but expected the recent Lisa Perry + Jeff Koons was not.)  Not sure how long these will be in stock, but take no chances and head over there this weekend to the Soho/Broadway, Fifth Ave., or 34th Street location. (Details below.)  Forgive the bad cell phone photography, you are NOT allowed to take photos in that place, luckily I was able to sneak these....

This was one of my favorites that I bought...

Yeah, but they didn't....

Walking On Warhol! There's Still Time At UNIQLO

Why is everyone walking over Warhol?  To get to the fabulous art t's!

  

For some reason I liked shooting images of the hustle and bustle over the Icon.....

  

 This is one that I bought  - top right....

    

It's truly still Andy's world, we're just living in it.

There's still time to get your Warhol T's for spring at Uniqlo's Flagship, located on Fifth & 53rd.  Word is they may not be around for too much longer and if you have a favorite Warhol painting, and want to wear it, you should head over soon.
This museum (MOMA)-like event is commemorate the 25th anniversary of pop art icon Andy Warhol's death.  Uniqlo released a limited edition of t's for men and women (yes, finally, women's cuts),  of the artist's finest works.  


I spent over an hour there the first day walking up and down the disco-like isle trying to figure it out which to purchase, (fact: he has been one of my favorite pop artists since the early 80's, middle school, when I began learning what art (and Studio 54 were.) I finally decided on the "POP ART IS FOR EVERYONE" w/the banana icon in the background and one with a  photo of Warhol and a skull, both black images on a white tee.)   This, since I love my skulls, (high end skulls that is), and this met the requirement.  


Beginning April 5th Uniqlo also began giving out a ticket to the MOMA with any two purchases (limited availability.)  And, a ticket to the MOMA is also a ticket to Ps.1 in my hood of Long Island City.


Yes, take a walk in on Andy and spend some time, like you are at the MOMA seeing his works, and pick up a few works of art, turned into fashion!

The Gallery, Or Should I Say Museum Called Anthropologie!

View from above at the cash wrap, looking down, yes - that 's down, huge!         Painted vases!

 

This piece is around $6k, but you'd need 3 NYC apts walls to hold it! My new favorite thing; hanging artistic plates!

 Welcome to one of my favorite happy places on the planet; Anthropologie. New stores are popping up all over due to their incredible growth and sales, the latest on the Upper East Side in NYC located on Third / 72nd.  When I walked in I thought I was in a museum, or a the least a really large gallery. Once you go, you'll know. Most Anthro stores around the county are pretty artist and unique, but the New York ones are just insane, thus, I give you Third Ave.

I'm only posting a few photos now, many more to come but the huge, beautiful layout with incredible art everywhere is the perfect experience if you love art and fashion. The clothes and hand bags are art enough, but on the walls see many fine works by local and worldwide artists.  The prices are much more - well, a-lot more than say, Chelsea Art Passage at Barney's but still captivating to look at and get your gallery experience while shopping.  

I plan to try to get closer to these works to get the artists names, needed a ladder or something, maybe next time! Many more photos coming and if you are a regular reader you will see the Anthro fashion and art mix time and time again from different stores.

The smaller market store may not be as elaborate but none the less a sight to see, and purchase if you have the moola!  visit: www.anthropologie.com.

Tomorrow we visit Andy Warhol at Uniqlo!!!
