Mbw, by sgolby on Oct 16, 2014 18:56:15 GMT 1, What is sad is that this is AN EXACT copy of a sneaker that Designer Brand Martin Margiela did to honor Jackson Pollock. MBW is a joke if you ask me. Went into a gallery the other day and some joker gallery owner wanted to wax poetic about the artistic virtues of this dude. Same joker then told me he wanted 15k for an unsigned Grannies... OY VEY!!!!!
I am not sure if Nike Tier Zero/Hyperstrike has anything to do with this, but if so, no bueno to Nike for allowing MBW to blatantly copy Margiela...

I'm guessing this isn't a collaboration but rather doucheface just painting nikes on his own. The ceo of Nike knows his art and has an impressive collection.

This isn't a Collab with Nike. He's just splattered paint on some trainers.

Not my thing, but its hard to knock this guy, whatever he releases, be it terrible prints or paint splattered trainers for $750 everything sells out in an instant. Whatever we think of his talent, or lack of, he must be one of the most "successful" artists around at the moment - funny old world!

To me, he is successful in his own right. Whether we like him or not doesn't matter. He has a large following outside of this 'art circle', just look at his Insta following.
As much as we think he is no artist, he is actually more successful than many urban artists. This is a fact which cannot be denied.

He may not be liked, he may not work hard, and he may not produce pieces of quality but I would imagine his bank account looks a dam sight healthier that 99.9% of the artists talked about on here! The questions, "What is art" and "What classes an Artist as successful" can be answered many different ways by many different people, but I consider him a "Successful artist"

Bulk buying Second hand clothes retailer expands his proven MO into art and succeeds
He is having a laugh
I am having a laugh
Sadly, many people who are churning and buying his stuff are deadly serious - and its got nothing to do with art

I'm not getting political, simply saying it's not acollaboration and i don't think the CEO of Nike would give MBW the respect of being offered a collaboration. www.buzzfeed.com/gerosilvapereira/33-pictures-of-nike-ceo-mark-parkers-unreal-offic-59ka?s=mobile
