Wake up, Andy Warhol. Here’s a bag for you.

“Wake up, Andy Warhol!” was the name of a exhibition of designers riffing on the tropes of … well.. Andy Warhol. The exhibition took place at SSamziegil, a popular bohemian shopping area in Isadong, Seoul, South Korea. The LA-based design collective Poketo! created the bags above as a facsimile of a facsimile work from the exhibit. The bags were made in limited edition and can be found at their site here. As Rueben Miller questions on his art/design blog, “When ‘real’ is mimicked so much that ‘fake’ is as common as ‘real’, then what would you rather have – ‘real’ or ‘fake’? Think about it.” The work certainly does raise some funny questions about authenticity and the multiple. You can see pictures from the exhibition here.
