Supreme brings back their no effs given mentality on this Supreme Mike Kelley Empire State Building Tee Slate, featuring the artwork of like-minded artist Mike Kelley, which gives this t-shirt some BDE, aka, phallic energy. The world famous brand’s skate roots in “the old New York” and their obsession with supporting art, has allowed Supreme ways to creatively support artists, and help elevate their creations through the “world famous” brand. For the New York City inspired Empire State Building t-shirt, they bring back one of Mike Kelley’s most vulgar and simple pieces. The Supreme Mike Kelley Empire State Building Tee Slate features a photo of the Empire State Building, with some creative updates from Kelley in the form of a phallic recreation. Kelley passed away in 2012 but began his solo exhibitions in NYC (and Los Angeles) in the early 1980s. Mike Kelley garnered a cult-like following in his short time creating. When Kelley died in 2012 of an apparent suicide, fans recreated a tribute version of More Love Hours Than Can Ever Be Repaid and The Wages Of Sin in a parking area near his apartment, a testament to his fans dedication. The Supreme Mike Kelley Empire State Building Tee is yet another example of Supreme bringing attention to creative artists through their collaborations and this colorway is the one of the subtle options.
