Supreme's linking up with New York artist Nate Lowman for a Spring collection built around his iconic bullet-hole works. For those unfamiliar, Lowman came up in the early 2000s NYC art scene alongside names like Ryan McGinley and Dash Snow, making waves with work that transforms everyday American detritus - newspaper clippings, bumper stickers, found imagery - into commentary on violence, celebrity culture, and decay.
The bullet-hole motif that's featured throughout this collection has an interesting origin story. Lowman first spotted it as a novelty car decal at a Texas gas station, then blew it up via silkscreen onto shaped canvases for his 2005 debut show. As he's explained, there's something compelling about layering violent imagery onto the peaceful surface of geometric abstraction - a tension that's defined his work for nearly two decades.
The Supreme collection includes:
- Work Vest
- Sweater
- Short Sleeve Shirt
- Hooded Sweatshirt
- Painter Pant
Everything drops March 17th in the US and EU, with Japan getting it March 19th. No pricing announced yet, but expect standard Supreme artist collaboration rates.
