Drawing on the genius of the original shoe using lettering, ironic labels, collage, and sculpting techniques, Abloh plays with language and sculptural elements to construct new meaning. Inspired by the wit of Dadaism, architectural theory, and avant-garde happenings, he analyzes what makes each shoe iconic and deconstructs it into an artistic assemblage, making each shoe into a piece of industrial design, a readymade sculpture, and a wearable all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eICONS traces Abloh's investigative, creative process through documentation of the prototypes, original text messages from Abloh to Nike designers, and treasures from the Nike archives. We find Swooshes sliced away from Air Jordans and reapplied with tape or thread, Abloh's typical text fragments in quotation marks on Air Force 1, and All Stars cut into pieces. We take a look behind the scenes and witness Abloh's DIY approach, which gives each model in the Off-WhiteTM c\/o Nike collection its own unique touch.

For its design Nike and Abloh partnered with the acclaimed London-based design studio Zak Group. Together they conceived a two-part compendium, equal parts catalog and conceptual toolbox. The first part of the book presents a visual culture of sneakers while a lexicon in the second part defines the key people, places, objects, ideas, materials, and scenes from which the project grew. Texts by Nike's Nicholas Schonberger, writer Troy Patterson, curator and historian Glenn Adamson, and Virgil Abloh himself frame the collaborative work within fashion and design history.

Invested in the circuitry and circuitous routes of migration and labor, Som's lyricism weaves together the narratives of his transnational communities, bringing to light what is overshadowed in the reckless transit of global capitalism and imagining a world otherwise--one attuned to the echo in the hecho, the oracle in the rale.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books and Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45694980423844,"sku":"","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/5121\/3988\/files\/9780820363509.jpg?v=1715200537"},{"product_id":"king-a-life-hardcover","title":"King: A Life (Hardcover)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eA finalist for the 2023 National Book Critics Circle Award\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNamed one of the ten best books of 2023 by\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Washington Post\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e|\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e|\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eTime\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003ebestseller and notable book of 2023 | One of Barack Obama's favorite books of 2023\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e's essential reads of 2023 | A\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Science Monitor\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003ebest book of the year | One of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eAir Mail\u003c\/i\u003e's twelve best books of 2023\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eand National Indie Bestseller |\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e's best nonfiction books of 2023 | One of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eSmithsonian\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emagazine's ten best books of 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Supple, penetrating, heartstring-pulling and compulsively readable . . .

When he dies, his widow Caldonia succumbs to profound grief, and things begin to fall apart at their plantation: slaves take to escaping under the cover of night, and families who had once found love under the weight of slavery begin to betray one another. Beyond the Townsend household, the known world also unravels: low-paid white patrollers stand watch as slave “speculators” sell free black people into slavery, and rumors of slave rebellions set white families against slaves who have served them for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn ambitious, courageous, luminously written masterwork, The Known World seamlessly weaves the lives of the freed and the enslaved—and allows all of us a deeper understanding of the enduring multidimensional world created by the institution of slavery.

Throughout, Williams illustrates how quickly we come to the edges of our patience and endurance, the hidden damages lurking in the shadows of the everyday, the distances we must travel to protect our families, and the tenuousness of even our deepest relationships. Williams sees the perversity in the mundane and dares readers to confront the power—and beauty—of time’s relentless movement.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith exquisite prose and a lacerating wit, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eBeautiful Days\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003eholds a mirror to the many absurdities of being human and refuses to let us look away.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Books \u0026 Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46135342596260,"sku":"","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/5121\/3988\/files\/BeautifulDays.webp?v=1723757205"},{"product_id":"martyr-a-novel-hardcover","title":"Martyr!: A novel (Hardcover)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ci\u003eNEW YORK TIMES\u003c\/i\u003e BESTSELLER • NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR SO FAR FOR 2024 BY \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e• A newly sober, orphaned son of Iranian immigrants, guided by the voices of artists, poets, and kings, embarks on a remarkable search for a family secret that leads him to a terminally ill painter living out her final days in the Brooklyn Museum. Electrifying, funny, and wholly original\u003ci\u003e, Martyr!\u003c\/i\u003e heralds the arrival of an essential new voice in contemporary fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCyrus Shams is a young man grappling with an inheritance of violence and loss: his mother’s plane was shot down over the skies of the Persian Gulf in a senseless accident; and his father’s life in America was circumscribed by his work killing chickens at a factory farm in the Midwest.

A recently established government ministry is gathering “expats” from across history to establish whether time travel is feasible—for the body, but also for the fabric of space-time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShe is tasked with working as a “bridge”: living with, assisting, and monitoring the expat known as “1847” or Commander Graham Gore. As far as history is concerned, Commander Gore died on Sir John Franklin’s doomed 1845 expedition to the Arctic, so he’s a little disoriented to be living with an unmarried woman who regularly shows her calves, surrounded by outlandish concepts such as “washing machines,” “Spotify,” and “the collapse of the British Empire.” But with an appetite for discovery, a seven-a-day cigarette habit, and the support of a charming and chaotic cast of fellow expats, he soon adjusts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver the next year, what the bridge initially thought would be, at best, a horrifically uncomfortable roommate dynamic, evolves into something much deeper. By the time the true shape of the Ministry’s project comes to light, the bridge has fallen haphazardly, fervently in love, with consequences she never could have imagined. Forced to confront the choices that brought them together, the bridge must finally reckon with how—and whether she believes—what she does next can change the future.\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn exquisitely original and feverishly fun fusion of genres and ideas, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Ministry of Time\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003easks: What does it mean to defy history, when history is living in your house?
