Make no mistake, MSCHF<\/a> <\/strong>has earned its name. From major lawsuits<\/a> to Devil worship accusations<\/a>, MSCHF seems to always be making someone mad. Their latest aggravating adventure opens this weekend as MSCHF<\/strong> takes over Perrotin<\/strong> Gallery NYC<\/strong> for their first ever art show, NO MORE TEARS, I\u2019M LOVIN\u2019 IT<\/em><\/strong>. The exhibit will feature a number of art pieces including the “FOOT LOCKER” <\/strong>installation, a warped reality featuring sneaker icons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MSCHF first came onto the sneaker scene when they released the custom Nike Air Max 97 \u201cJesus Shoes,\u201d<\/a> which featured an Air sole filled with water from the Jordan River. Since then, MSCHF has dropped a number of original silhouettes including the MSCHF AC1 Walking Boot<\/a> and the MSCHF Super Normal<\/strong>, with the latter dropping in a new \u201c5 O\u2019Clock Shadow\u201d<\/a> colorway at the NYC exhibit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Brooklyn-based art collective has created a number of projects that poke fun at pop culture and consumerism at large. The exhibit extends MSCHF’s provocative point-of-view with a strip mall installation that features interactive sections like a medieval armory, a peephole with 24kGoldn’s hand, a gaming wing featuring a first person shooter with the members of BTS, a Chair Simulator where you can walk around as Bob Ross, and a tribute to their ongoing legal battle with Vans over the MSCHF \u201cWavy Baby.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking inspiration from the “Wavy Baby,” MSCHF warps other iconic sneaker silhouettes as a part of its “FOOT LOCKER” installation. The Air Jordan 1, adidas Superstar, Converse\u00a0Chuck Taylor,\u00a0Reebok Shaqnosis,\u00a0and adidas Yeezy Wave Runner 700\u00a0are all apart of the display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MSCHF “FOOT LOCKER” Exhibit<\/strong> at Perrotin<\/strong> Gallery NYC<\/strong> opens today, November 3rd. Stop by between the hours of 12pm-8pm. For more sneaker news<\/a> and release dates<\/a>, follow @NiceKicks<\/a> on Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
