anne imhof doom nike jerseys 1234751182

Anne Imhof, the German artist known for her sprawling performances and winner of the 2017 Venice Biennale Golden Lion, has created her first brand collaboration with Nike. She designed two rival jerseys for Nike's revived Total 90 line, inspired by the warring 'houses' from her Park Avenue Armory project *Doom: House of Hope*: a black-and-blue short-sleeve jersey for the Tigers and a red long-sleeve jersey with a wolf's head for the Wolves. The designs, realized with Zak Group, feature the Doom crest and 'Imhof 25' on the back, and were launched with a live performance by Berlin musicians Lia Lia and ATK44 during Berlin Art Week. The jerseys will be available from September 16 at Voo Berlin and Dover Street Market in London.

The Slow Death of the Contemporary Art Gallery

The article reports on the decline of the traditional contemporary art gallery model, driven by rising rents, changing collector behavior, and the rise of new artist categories. Tim Blum closed his Blum & Poe galleries in Los Angeles and Tokyo, citing systemic issues rather than market conditions. Art Basel and UBS data show the art market shrank overall but the number of sales increased, indicating a shift toward mid-priced works. Collectors are moving away from "blue-chip" artists toward "red-chip" artists who gain value through viral hype and cultural relevance, exemplified by Olaolu Slawn's accessible solo show at Saatchi Yates. Celebrities like actor Adrien Brody are also entering the market, though his work has been criticized as derivative. Meanwhile, smaller galleries like Tiwa Gallery, Landdd, and Marta are thriving by focusing on genuine connection, and retail spaces like Gentle Monster and Dover Street Market are blending art with commerce.
