To pop off the Push Project Art Show, a three way collaboration saw retailer Atlas, skate brand Manik and New York artist Nish to create a collection of t-shirts and skatedecks. Unlike conventional board art, the art is designed on reinspired skate boards. The two decks featured here were done by Andrew Pommier and Jeff Proctor. Stop by Atlas in San Mateo to check out the art show.
In a series of photographs relating back to his 2007 film My Blueberry Nights, Chinese director Wong Kar Wai has joined forces with contemporary fashion boutique Opening Ceremony in a capsule of photo print t-shirts, posters and post cards. The release comes in association with the US debut of My Blueberry Nights on April 4th. While the postcards and posters document more extensively the states visited by Wong Kar Wai, the four t-shirts feature photography chosen from California, New York, Tennesse and Nevada. Wong Kar Wai will also be available on April 2nd at Opening Ceremony New York for a special meet and greet.
