Importany things fround in the interview

**************************

1MJ's collaborations with Stephen Sprouse, Takashi Murakami, and Richard Prince have shaken things up in both the fashion and the art worlds.Especially In Marc by Macr Jacobs collection.
A lot people thought that mixing up art and fashion is something kind of new but Marc Jacobs didnt agree that he thought it was kind of old.

HERE ARE EXAMPLES:

Collaborations with :

a)Stephen Sprouse

Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs paid homage to the great Stephen Sprouse with a limited edition collection of accessories and ready-to-wear.

The collection is said to use graffiti and the rose — both infamous Sprouse themes — in Day-Glo shades of pink, orange, and green.

“I proposed putting together a Vuitton version of the Pop Shop, which was Keith Haring’s concept…not reissuing products that we had done with Stephen, but doing things that were similar or new. I tried to take what Stephen had done at Vuitton and then kind of flip it in my head, and make it Vuitton’s work for Stephen, not Stephen’s work for Vuitton.” - Marc Jacobs

b)Takashi Murakami

'08

The print comes in three shades of green.

For the Louis Vuitton pre-fall 2008 collection, Marc Jacobs collaborated with Japanese designer Takashi Murakami to create a unique and different look for the following season, “Monogramouflage”.

”Our collaboration has produced a lot of works, and has a huge influence and inspiration to many. It has been and continues to be a monumental marriage of art and commerce. The ultimate cross-over, one for both the fashion and art history books.” says Marc Jacobs

c)Richard Prince

“I’m a fan of SpongeBob SquarePants—and for all I know, so is Rei Kawakubo, because that’s where our color came from!” - Marc Jacobs in an interview with Style.
