Yesterday Puma hosted a gallery opening to present their recent work with artist Kehinde Wiley. Three soccer stars that are sponsored by Puma, stood model for the artist. The resulting painting features the three soccer players and represents the Africa nations. Also the players are wearing the Unity jersey, which was especially designed for the African teams. After Berlin, the portraits will go on a gallery tour to Paris, London, New York and some other cities.
More images of the Kehinde Wiley x Puma Event from last night follow after the jump.
