More on Raymond Pettibon:
Known for his stark, linear drawings that reference the aesthetics of comics or zines, Pettibon often addresses the darker undercurrents within American society, offering a subversive take on both mainstream culture and its fringes. Philosophically profound, deeply literary and biting in his satire, Raymond Pettibon is the foremost draftsman of his generation, and one of America’s most important contemporary artists. Approaching “high” and “low” subject matter with equal appetite and comfort, Pettibon plumbs the depths of American sexuality, politics, subcultures, mores, and intellectual histories through themes ranging from Shakespeare to Gumby, surfers to the Bible, baseball to German Romanticism.

Supreme:
In 1994, Supreme opened on Lafayette Street in downtown Manhattan and became the vanguard of New York City skate culture. At its core was a group of neighborhood kids, New York skaters, and local artists who became the store’s staff, crew, and customers.
Supreme grew to embody downtown culture, and play an integral part in its constant regeneration. Skaters, punks, hip-hop heads — the young counter culture at large — all gravitated toward Supreme.
While it developed into a downtown institution, Supreme established itself as a brand known for its quality, style, and authenticity.
In the past 30 years, Supreme has expanded from its New York City origins into a global community; working with generations of artists, photographers, designers, musicians, filmmakers, and writers.
