Stephen Sprouse: Rock on Mars
-
- Stephen Sprouse, Iggy on the Cross, 1987, Courtesy the Sprouse family archives & Deitch Projects
Giving a proper showcase to the late Stephen Sprouse's full range of artistic influence, Rock on Mars is both a retrospective and a time-capsule of the '80s downtown scene. Early sketches, personal Polaroids, outfits, and canvases pulled from the Sprouse family archives shed light on the artist's punk-rock-meets-Wild Style roots. A portrait of a crucified Iggy Pop holds court with images of custom-made outfits for Debbie Harry, and 50 of Sprouse's most influential designs hang at attention while a selection of video installations from runway shows plays. Sprouse's famous collaboration with fashion powerhouse Louis Vuitton has also been resurrected this season, in honor of his undeniable art-star influence.
