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.

Interesting news are coming from artist Kehinde Wiley. The artist will be launching his own clothing line, projecting his colorful patterns, created usually with oil on canvas, onto clothing. The outcome is as expected pretty wild and very colorful. Some pieces have turned up at his recent “Down” exhibition at Deitch. Via Supertouch.

Hopefully we can soon give you a better picture of Kehinde Wiley clothing line.
