V&M are the leading online design and decoration store/market place – a super stylish destination for finding art, design, furniture and decoration. V&M are currently hosting an online sale of Sam Haskins prints. As part of the promotion of the collaboration an event was held in New York at the end of July. Here are the sounds and images of the night.
This week Lexus held their Eco-Challenge Winners event at Milk Gallery in New York. Sam’s work served to represent the photo/fashion world for what was in effect a one-night exhibition/party/prize winners celebration and of course the presentation of a new vehicle. We printed big poster like prints on heavyweight banner material and fixed them straight to the walls.
Below are three images from the show
