Norman Gekko’s “Chanel N°5 Banksy”: Contemporary
intro In the elastic space between high-life and urban subculture, few contemporary sculptors lean as confidently into visual irony as Norman Gekko, the French artist known for his playful, critical reinventions of global cultural icons.

The Brutalist Sweater: How a Grey Knit Became the Unlikely Artifact of 2025 Cinema
Costume design has always functioned as the unsung architecture of film, quietly constructing character, mood and narrative without demanding attention. Once in a while, however, a garment escapes its fictional frame and becomes something larger: a symbol, a touchstone, a piece of cinema that the public can actually touch. That is exactly what happened with […]
Review: Undercover Men’s Champion Psycho Crewneck Sweatshirt
There are connection that feel inevitable, and there are connections that feel like provocations — deliberate fractures in the expected order of things. The Undercover Men’s Champion Psycho Crewneck Sweatshirt lands unmistakably in the latter category.
