Bottle Cap Art

Designed by Ricky Ladd, comes this dope Bottle Cap Sculpture. I think it is an amazing piece of art, my only question is how many bottle caps were used to create this?

Fragment collaborated with Bearbrick to produce a 100% Bearbrick Panda that will be auctioned off with Nike Classic Panda Pack. Both the Nike Classic Panda pack and the Bearbrick are efforts to help raise money to help the people in China that was hit by the earthquake. More info to come soon.

I’ve been seeing alot of Kermit lately, and I have to admit that I kinda used to have a thing for him back during my Sesame Street days. You can purchase the bearbrick online or if your in the NY area its available at Supreme NY for $18.00, but you better get yours asap. They are selling out quickly.

FL Shop from Japan reports that the new Futura Atom Bearbricks are about to be released.

The Hundreds are getting ready to release a set of skatedecks. One deck comes with Adam Bomb and the other one with the signature black/white grass pattern. These will be releasing in limited quantities next week at the Hundreds Store.

Bounty X Hunter drops some new stuff including shirts, denim shirts, quilted shirts, jackets, t-shirts and more. The most exciting release is probably the new Bounty x Hunter toy. If your a toy collector you should be intrigued.

On view at the Whitney Museum of American Art through Feb 2008, artist Kara Walker will be showing “My Complement, My Enemy, My Oppressor, My Love”. The artist explores racism in the American psyche through large-scale silhouettes that tell a story as they spread from one end of a room to the other. Walker has created a repertoire of narratives in which she conflates fact and fiction to uncover the roots of racial and gender bias. Her imagery is haunted by sexuality, violence, and subjugation while depicting historical narratives of injury caused by the legacy of slavery. She’s been featured in Art21 and was in Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in The World, Artists and Entertainers in 2007.

Here is a look a the black Captain Brunch figure from Japanese label Bounty X Hunter. Two versions of this Captain Brunch figure was made, a black one and a red one (as I showed in a previous post). The black was made for Japan while the red version was made for Silly Thing’s Hong Kong store. The release of this toy coincides with the 10th anniversary of Bounty X Hunter.
