In 1962, Robert Indiana, created his iconic EAT/DIE diptych. The work featured two eye-catching, oil painted panels, one of which read “EAT” and the other “DIE”. The work was largely inspired by Indiana’s mother whose last word was “eat” before passing.

Robert Indiana (American, 1928-2018) was one of the major figures in American art in the second half of the 20th Century. He played a central role in the development of assemblage art, hard-edge painting, and Pop art. His work explores American identity, personal history, and the power of abstraction and language. Equally a painter, print maker, sculptor, and poet it has been hard to categorize Indiana’s work and fit him into a particular style. 

Perfect for coffee talk, this mug features a reproduction of the painting Kvetch, Kvetch, Kvetch, 2010, by Mel Bochner.

This stacked block game is like an interactive work of art. It features the primary colors and geometric shapes of De Stijl, an art movement founded in the early 20th century by a group of Dutch artists and architects, including Piet Mondrian, Theo van Doesburg, and Bart van der Leck.

The game begins with the full tower, assembled as stacked layers of three blocks each, rotated 90 degrees from one another. You create your own tower design with each game, arranging the lines and colors however you like. Players take turns, removing a single block from the tower and placing it on top, shifting the composition with each move. The game ends when the tower collapses, and the player who is the last to successfully complete a turn is the winner.

The Tumbling Tower was designed by Monica Albornoz as part of MoMA’s collaboration with the School of Visual Arts MFA Products of Design program.

Literally??? I'm just going with the flow right now. I'm vibing. I'm trusting the process. I'm letting go of the need to control the experience. I'm saying YES, but I'm also saying MAYBE, NO, IDK. I'm embracing possibility. I'm saving $5 by drinking this at home.

This set of four mirrored coasters entitled The Night You Left are by Nir Hod. Each set includes four different designs lined with digitally printed white powder that has a tactile quality. Decadent and eye-catching these are one of our best-sellers and are easily gift-able. 

The title of the set suggests a lonely narrative, a moment of solitude. “There is a certain magic in loneliness,” Hod explains, “you have to be alone to create.” He adds, “It’s not about drugs or glamour—it’s about the inside world, where you can dream and love and seek a greater truth—it’s about a feeling of being connected to something so human."

Samios embarks on a transformative journey, breathing new life into forgotten treasures of the past. With a reverence for the beauty of nature and a commitment to sustainability, he paints birds on reclaimed silver-plated objects, infusing them with a vibrant energy and a sense of purpose. They are a collaboration between Samios and the designer of the object.

<br><br>

Each piece created carries with it a rich history, a story whispered through the patina of time. By adorning these objects with delicate avian motifs, Samios seeks to celebrate the enduring spirit of resilience and renewal. 

<br><br>

The juxtaposition of the ornate elegance of the silver-plated surface with the organic forms of the birds reflects the harmony found in the coexistence of the man-made and the natural world. Through his art, Samios invites viewers to pause and reflect on the interconnectedness of all living beings and the importance of cherishing our planet's precious resources. As viewers gaze upon these repurposed treasures, Samios hopes to inspire a sense of wonder and appreciation for the beauty that surrounds us, even in unexpected places.
