Nike Air Max Sculpture by Benedict Radcliffe
December 22, 2009 ⋅ Uncategorized ⋅ by L. Ruano ⋅ 70 Views

Spotted during the Dizzee Rascal Air Max 90 launch at Nike Sportswear’s 1948 space was this enormous sculpture by UK artist Benedict Radcliffe. Commissioned by Nike, Radcliffe reworked his usual bicycle/vehicle designs into a full-scale Air Max wire piece, measuring at 3.5 meters long and perfectly reflecting the classic Air Max silhouette. Sneaker Freaker recently sat down with the artist to speak about his amazing works of art. The interview can be read here.
