Celebrating the beauty that is NYC Art Week, Junk Food Clothing unveiled the latest addition to its Junk Food Art House Collection, a series of premium t-shirts featuring graphics from avant garde artists from the art, film and fashion industries. The cocktail event, held at the Carlton Hotel, the perfect location as it was a popular gathering place for New York artists in the 1920s, was soulful thanks to a live performance by pop fusion singer/songwriter, Lily Lane. The two tees highlighted at the event celebrated the works of neo-expressionist artist, Jean-Michel Basquiat but the collection also features styles which feature the works of muralist, Keith Haring.
The incredibly soft, women’s vintage-inspired Basquiat Crown henley features a 3/4 raglan sleeve with henley placket on the front with a foil embellishment; it retails for $42.00. The men’s Basquiat tee, a loose crew neck, also incredibly soft and vintage-inspired, features Basquiat’s Dinosaur and crown graphic and retails for $36.00. Enjoy some of the event’s music from Lily Lane in the video below:
Along with the wonderful music, the event also treated us to delicious treats from Kind Bars, So Delicious Frozen Treats, Volvic Water, and Belvoir Cordials.
