We’ve joined forces with Head of State to design an exclusive capsule collection inspired by Solid Gold, our new exhibition that explores one of humanity’s most enduring obsessions. Founded by Taofeek Abijako, Head of State embraces a design philosophy rooted in deep research and engagement with cultural narratives and symbols. This capsule collection features a range of products that offer a nuanced—and stylish—commentary on gold’s many natures and rich symbolism. This graphic translates Kawamura Manshu's "Cranes," a work by a contemporary Japanese painter. The original work features four-paneled folding screens, color, ink and gold. With this new graphic, the crane silhouettes have been overlayed with topography, referencing the prospecting maps used to mine gold.
The Taxonomy Tee features objects featured in the "Solid Gold" exhibition from the permanent Brooklyn Museum collection including a Gold Wreath from 3rd–2nd century B.C.E.
