Art that you can carry in your pocket, courtesy of Acne Studios’ latest collaboration with Jack Pierson. Jack Pierson, for those of you not au fait with the world d’art, is an American artist who works across sculpture, photography and video, exhibiting at MoMA, LACMA and the Whitney. He’s a big’un basically. The collaboration with Acne Studios is centred around their small leather accessories – coin purses, wallets, key rings et al – all of which have been embossed with five different artworks from Pierson’s 1994 exhibition catalogue ‘Caught in the Rain Broken in the Stardust’. Because why hang art to your wall when you can store it right next to your crotch. Presuming that’s where you store your small leather goods. Anyway, on another note, the accessories (which are also customisable) are available now in Tokyo, Norrmalmstorg in Stockholm, Rue Froissart in Paris, Eastern Columbia Building in Los Angeles, Dover Street in London, Greene Street in New York and on acnestudios.com. We say: the perfect Chrissy present for your nearest and dearest.
