The Stages 09 exhibition, a collaborative effort between Nike Sportswear and Lance Armstrong’s Livestrong foundation, will open for the last time its doors in Miami next month, during Art Basel Miami. After previously being shown in Paris and New York, the impressive list of artists that worked on special pieces for the show is back one more time. Check out here above an interview with two of our favorite artists from the show – Kenny Scharf and Kaws. Enjoy!

Cerealart, the Philadelphia gallery of artist multiples, is selling ceramic sculptures by pop artist Kenny Scharf that also function as bongs. Available in limited editions of white, purple, green or orange, and one-of-a-kind hand painted ones, each is stamped signed on the bottom.

Have a look at the other colors of Kenny Scharf’s “Object To Enjoy” after the jump.

We have always been big fans of artist Kenny Scharf and his playful/colorful work. Recently his latest exhibition, Barberadise, opened at Honor Fraser in Los Angeles and we can give you a detailed first look at the works.

” Honor Fraser Gallery was filled with groovy, brightly colored florescent paintings and sculptures from the legendary Pop artist. Continuing with his mission of penetrating the boundaries of fine art through the use and reference of popular culture, Scharf’s paintings features characters from the Hanna-Barbera universe, mainly The Flinstones and The Jetsons.”

Many more images of the Kenny Scharf “Barberadise” Exhibition follow after the jump.

In an interesting new collaboration premium Swiss watch brand Movado got together with contemporary artist Kenny Scharf on a series of watches.

“Scharf took the iconic Nathan George Horwitt-designed, Bauhaus-inspired Museum Watch and illustrated the dials with his signature aesthetic. There are six watches in all that were produced in limited runs. There are 25 limited edition box sets that will retail at Movado stores for $3,495, starting next month. In addition, 100 limited edition pieces of each style will be sold for $695.”

An interesting move by Movado, something rarely seen in the otherwise pretty conservative Swiss watch industry. A detailed look at all 6 watches from the Movado x Kenny Scharf Collection follows after the jump.

We have always been big fans of New York based pop artist Kenny Scharf. Just recently we showed you the Trek bike that the artist designed for Lance Armstrong. Today we get a look inside his studio, actually the space just below his studio. The artist created a colorful world of objects, paintings and more that create an environment similar to his paitings.

“On the floor below his studio he had created this insane space thats like walking into one of his sculptures.” – Kaws.

It is great seeing the artist’s work outside of the usual gallery environment. Take a closer look after the jump.

A while ago we showed you the art bikes by Kaws and Barry McGee for Lance Armstrong. Today we can give you a look at the next two bikes, this time created by Shepard Fairey and Kenny Scharf for the Giro d’Italia 2009.

The Giro d’Italia is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2009 and it is actually the first time that Lance Armstrong is participating. On July 16th the Nike backed “Stages” art show will open in Paris at Gallerie Emmanuel Perrotin and to draw some attention to the event these two new art bikes have been created.

“Getting up on Lance’s “daily driver” Trek Madone road bike, Shepard Fairey created a vibrant homage to Lance’s cancer fighting foundation while including ancient patterning in homage of Italy’s rich architectural details. NYC Pop Art legend Kenny Scharf took a totally different approach to Lance’s Trek TTX time trial cycle and created the “lightspeed” space bike that will hopefully hurtle Tex across the finish line in record time. Both bikes will be auctioned off on October 2nd (10/2 marks the date of Lance’s original cancer diagnosis) at the NYC stop of the “Stages” art tour with all proceeds going to benefit Livestrong.” Via Supertouch.

The Lance Armstrong “Stages” Project continues to draw in high profile artists, resulting in interesting pieces of work. You can be sure ther is a lot more to come.

For now, have a more detailed look at the Shepard Fairey and Kenny Scharf bikes after the jump.
