The Soundtrack To My Wardrobe
A new collection of paintings, products and limited editions from Pete McKee celebrating our love affair with music, fashion and vinyl.
Artist Pete McKee is delighted to share this new collection which will be available to view and buy online from Friday 26th April. Four new paintings depicting iconic albums and the fashion they have inspired sit alongside a new slip mat, tote bag, pint glass and a limited edition 7” box set, featuring the collection of prints from the ‘Teenage Kicks’ exhibition.
Teenage Kicks - The 7” Vinyl Collection
This limited edition box set features all 20 prints from the 2010 exhibition ‘Teenage Kicks’ which Pete showed during the spring of 2010 with Paul Smith in Japan. Teenage Kicks is a celebration of our love affair with music and how certain genres have inspired us to dress.
These 7” prints are presented in their own individual record sleeves, each chosen to reflect the bands with which the fashion movement was associated. There is also an introduction card which is signed and numbered by the artist. Finally they all fit inside a 7” record box which is adorned with McKee stickers.
This boxset is limited to just 50 copies, 25 red and 25 in a black record box.
