After presenting an anime collection, UNIQLO UT turns to the originality of contemporary artist Jeff Koons to design new collaborative garments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Koons<\/strong><\/a>‘ art shocked the world in 2019, when his stainless steel sculpture Rabbit<\/strong><\/em> sold for $91.1 million. It was the most expensive work of art ever sold by a living artist. Now, this piece and four others -including the Balloon Dog<\/strong>– are materialised in graphics that decorate sweatshirts and T-shirts from the Japanese brand<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I really like how UNIQLO is in touch with my generation, but also with a younger generation,”<\/strong> <\/em>says the American artist<\/strong>. “Everyone enjoys their clothes, and enjoys them very much. I love that sense of unity. I hope this collaboration helps people around the world connect with each other and that art enriches their everyday lives.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
