MIAMI POP UP SHOP!!!!!!!


LOOK OUT MIAMI…WE’RE TAKING IT ON THE ROAD!!

Can’t tell you how excited I am about this project, it’s been a lot of work and we’re just about there.
This will be my first ever POP UP shop and we are doing it in Miami during Art Basel out of a 1964 Airstream, and there’s a twist…

I teamed up with one of my closest ladies, MICHELLE TILLOU, of Kinz Tillou Fine Art, to co-curate  a group of 5 artists for a limited edition of  printed swim pieces. So in edition to an awesome selection of our Resort 2012 swim pieces there will be signed and numbered (edition of 15) artist collab pieces with Javier PiñónSpencer TunickJohn NewsomEddie Martinez and Maya Hayuk!!! Here’s a sneak peek…

And there’s more…

Michelle organized a photo shoot with Spencer Tunick around the Airstream before it hit the road for Miami. It’s an amazing tie in to the whole project and the photos will be on display in the Airstream in Miami.
check them out… PHOTOS

SO- make sure to check out the flyer above for all the info, times, dates, places, etc., and come visit us in Miami! If you won’t be there but want an Artist suit, email me at marahoffman@aol.com!
