DOWN | The Skate Set

This limited edition skate deck set features paintings from Wiley's 2008 series DOWN, first exhibited at Deitch Projects. This series was inspired by Hans Holbein the Younger's The Dead Christ in the Tomb as well as historical paintings and sculptures of fallen warriors and figures in the state of repose. Wiley created an unsettling series of prone Black bodies, re-conceptualizing classical pictorial forms to create a contemporary version of monumental portraiture, resounding with violence, pain, and death, as well as ecstasy. With DOWN being a prime inspiration, over a decade later in 2022, Kehinde Wiley exhibited his series An Archeology of Silence at Foundazione Giorgio Cini as a collateral event of the 59th international art exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia. The exhibition has since traveled to de Young Legion of Honor / Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco and is currently showing at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

DOWN | Femme Piquée Skateboard Deck

This limited edition skate deck features Kehinde Wiley's 2008 painting, Femme Piquée Par Un Serpent Study III from his notable series, DOWN. This unique deck showcases the artist's reinterpretation of Auguste Clésinger’s 1847 sculpture of the same title, with Wiley's distinctive touch. Wiley's 2008 painting brings this iconic image to life on a high-quality skateboard deck, capturing the essence of vulnerability and sensuality. The central figure, clad in blue jeans, an orange hoodie, and a gold chain, reclines on a linen-clothed table, head tilted towards the viewer in a provocative stance. The exposed underwear hints at the vulnerability and eroticism of being off one's feet, turning a seemingly powerless moment into a bold artistic statement. -Cotton dust bag included in every order-Hand-numbered, editions of 400-100% sustainably sourced hard rock maple- 8"W x 31.875 L Designed in New York City.

DOWN | Sleep Skateboard Deck

This limited edition skate deck features Kehinde Wiley’s 2008 painting Sleep, reimagined from Jean-Bernard Restout’s 1771 painting of the same name. With luminously painted skin, draped in funerary-like cloth with his feet crossed atop a wooden plank, Wiley personifies his model to reflect the theological narratives permeating throughout his oeuvre. In an attempt to differentiate his works from the singular figure studies of his time, Restout included wings and poppies to his subject, composing a larger narrative beyond the skill of the artist's hand. Although Wiley's rendition deliberately focuses on the physicality of his human subject alone, it simultaneously ushers in the weight of art history behind it, and it’s undeniable exclusion of black bodies. -Cotton dust bag included in every order-Hand-numbered, editions of 400-100% sustainably sourced hard rock maple- 8"W x 31.875 L Designed in New York City.

Earl of Rochester Basketball and Plinth

This open edition 2023 leather basketball features Kehinde Wiley’s 2013 painting John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester from the artist's series The World Stage: Jamaica. First exhibited at Stephen Friedman Gallery in London, Wiley, using his notorious street casting method, places contemporary Jamaican natives in heroic poses that reference directly from 17th and 18th century British portraiture and feature background patterns inspired by British textiles. The body of works offers a corrective to the omission of the black figure from art history and specifically comments on the nature of the relationship between the United Kingdom and its former colonial holding. Wiley’s exhibition The World Stage: Jamaica is part of a broader project titled "The World Stage," which presents portraits of black and brown men and women the artist met in China, Brazil, Nigeria, Haiti, Israel, and India.
