“Taking its point of departure in his philosophies, the exhibition Louis Vuitton and Nike “Air Force 1” by Virgil Abloh offers an in-depth view of the sneakers the designer created in the summer of 2021 through his own inimitable lens. The exhibition set to take place at Brooklyn’s Greenpoint Terminal Warehouse will be wrapped in a vivid orange, and adorned with a logo fusing those of Louis Vuitton and Nike. A grid-like structure, it is the blueprint for the imaginary city erected within the space, seen from above. Walking around the exhibition, guests meander a giant version of the logo reflected in a mirrored ceiling. They are surrounded by 3D-printed statues akin to the ones Virgil Abloh built during his tenure at Louis Vuitton, framed by walls painted in the clouds characteristic of his show sets and campaign imagery.

Celebrating its 40th year, the Nike “Air Force 1” was designed by Nike in 1982 and is one of the most successful shoes ever created. For his Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2022 collection, Men’s Artistic Director Virgil Abloh collaborated with Nike on 47 bespoke ‘Air Force 1’ editions, which were crafted in the Maison’s Manufacture in Fiesso d’Artico, Venice, Italy fusing the sneaker’s classic codes with the insignia and finest materials of Louis Vuitton. On the album It Takes Two from 1988, DJ E-Z Rock was immortalised wearing Nike “Air Force 1” sneakers altered with a Nike Swoosh adorned in the Louis Vuitton monogram by the Harlem designer Dapper Dan. The cover embodied the hip-hop community’s early practice of hacking together high fashion and sportswear.” – from Louis Vuitton
