a visual collective outlet of inspiration
before pulling the trigger and getting the WKR decks we posted, consider this: supreme annually issues a series of artists boards that run about $80 to a $100 not much more than the beautiful and minimal WKR’s. above, and all sold out at this point are the robert longo decks above the previous damien hirst issues. no one knows what the next series will be. it’s a tough one as you have a collectors item vs. a truly beautiful “now” piece. so, just some food for thought. by xy
