A Unique Collaboration with the Pioneer of Pop Art
Andy Warhol, hailed as the pioneer of pop art, was known for his silk-screen prints utilizing portraits of celebrities and Campbell's soup cans. From the late 1970s, he began creating abstract works such as Rorschach and camouflage paintings, and is also recognized for introducing the concept of mass production into the art world.
For this collaboration, “Warhol Conspiracy,” WeSC and The Andy Warhol Foundation draw inspiration from Andy Warhol's iconic “Camouflage Paintings.” Three distinct patterns are applied across a range of items, including jackets, shirts, shorts, socks, hats, caps, bags, backpacks, and a limited-edition skateboard.
These products will be available globally at WeSC's directly managed stores and authorized retailers in countries across North America, Asia, and Europe.
