Art & Design. All Gone

Art & Design. All Gone: Whoever coined the term “There’s power in numbers”, and argued “Quality over quantity“ probably never thought about what the combined power of those two ideas might actually be. Not in the way collectors do, anyway. In comes “All Gone”, the first book assembled by La MJC, Indesignwetrust and Colette, celebrating 180 collectors products launched in 2006.

Being hailed as a “bible for the streewise”, the hardcover will boast 178 pages of Sneakers, Designer Toys, Tees, Skates – each item to be accompanied by a short story, either explaining the concept or describing the design. The tribute will pay homage to nearly every mover and shaker of the limited edition movement, including brands and designers such as A bathing ape, aNYthing, Clot, Crooks & Castles, DC Shoes, Dr Romanelli, Futura Laboratories, Huf, Ice Cream, Jordan, Married to the Mob, Nike, OriginalFake, Twelve Bar and Vans, as well as brand-stores like Stüssy, Supreme, Undefeated, and Alife to name a few. All Gone will also feature original artworks from KAWS, Futura, Michael Lau, the photography of Karl Lagerfield, Ricky Powell and Marcus Gaab and include interviews from the likes of Nigo, Hiroshi Fujiwara, James Jebbiah, KAWS, James Jarvis, Edison Chen, Madsaki, and Christian Hosoi. So as not to out do itself, each book comes with its own poster and stickers. All Gone is limited, of course, to 500 copies and can be found at “We Sold Out.” In stores now!
