“TGRAPHICS”
1990-2014
HISTORY OF UNDERCOVER T GRAPHICS
UNDERCOVER (undercover) attracts domestic and international praise for its isolated creation style that shakes the poles of street and mode.
In 1990, undercover started with hand-selling T-shirts made by designer Shield Takahashi with a friend. The T-shirt printed with a unique sense of graphics has been presented as part of the collection for a quarter of a century and continues to be an item that symbolizes the brand undercover.
In this exhibition, a number of master pieces of T-shirts and graphics will be exhibited as art works such as original drawings, vintage T-shirts, and jeclays (high-grade digital prints). In addition, reprinted T-shirts will be sold only at the venue.
