New York’s is a publisher of artist books (current and out of print) and related publications. Their online database of art publications is one of the largest and most comprehensive. Each year they hold the extremely popular and hip NY and LA Book Fairs at which they sell many zines, artist’s editions and interesting ephemera. And that’s where we spotted the Mitsu Okubo Artist Tees.
Mitsu Okubo Artist Tees
At the April 25-28th NY Book Fair, along with publications by San Francisco author and artist Mitsu Okubo, they were selling his hilarious artist tees.
Gently mocking some of the world’s most renowned artists, the tee-shirts (and a few sweaters and hoodies) have simple puns of the artist’s names in non-descript type. Available for purchase at the fair, and online, they are just subtle and inside enough to be esoteric but appealing. Take a look.
$25 each, you can purchase them
