Keiichi Tanaami Teases New Superstar Collaboration with adidas Originals
Japanese artist Keiichi Tanaami has teased a new Superstar collaboration with adidas Originals. The upcoming release coincides with a new retrospective exhibition entitled Keiichi Tanami: Memory Adventures at the National Museum of New Art, which will launch in Tokyo next month, as well as an ongoing solo exhibition at NANZUKA's 3110NZ by LDH kitchen location.
The SUPERSTAR TANAAMI is as surreal as one of the artist's maximalist paintings: constructed with leather tassels in various shapes and colors, as beady sun-rimmed eyes adorn the tongue of each shoe. Details surrounding the release are still under wraps, however, collectors and sneakerheads will covet the special care shown to the shoe's drawstring bag, box and full-grain leather construction throughout.
Tanaami's NANZUKA show, Nancy's Adventure, features three paintings inspired by the "Nancy" comic that was first introduced to Japan in 1938 and became popular within the country after WWII. “In the 1960s, I had a shocking encounter with the Pop Art of Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein, which led me to discover an expression that would allow me to utilize my hidden obsession with comics and commercial art," Tanaami said in a statement.
Nancy's Adventure will be on view in Tokyo until September 7, 2024. Stay tuned for more information regarding the SUPERSTAR TANAAMI.
