FRUIT OF THE LOOM NICOLE EISENMAN 1995 SOHO ARTS FESTIVAL TEE
In 1995, Nicole Eisenman was a rising figure in the New York City queer art scene, represented by the influential Jack Tilton Gallery.
This heavyweight cotton tee served as a wearable canvas for the SoHo Arts Celebration, capturing a specific moment before Eisenman became a MacArthur Fellow. Produced by Fotofolio, the garment translates gallery-grade work into a democratized medium for the public. The white fabric remains remarkably bright, showing only faint character through minimal graphic cracking after nearly three decades. It represents a time when high art and heavy-duty Fruit of the Loom blanks collided in the streets of South Norwalk.
