February 19th, 2021
Over the years Virgil Abloh has gone from his first underground and self-financed projects, initially in Chicago, to then land in Rome for an internship at Fendi with Kanye West, to become the designer of his generation, shaping streetwear taste, with Off-White™, revolutionizing the luxury industry at Louis Vuitton, and forever changing the sneaker game.
The impact that Abloh had on the world of fashion, and on that of communication in general, didn't go unnoticed for the No More Rulers collective, which in collaboration with Princeton University Press, is preparing to release a book that collects the best quotes from Abloh. Part of their -ISM series, which previously had as protagonists other influential figures of the world pop and art scenes, such as Futura, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Daniel Arsham, Abloh-ism is designed as a collection of quotes known or less known from the artistic director of Louis Vuitton.
"I believe that coincidence is key, but coincidence is energies coming towards each other. You have to be moving to meet it", one of Abloh's quotes part of the book.
Selected by Larry Warsh, Virgil Abloh's statements, taken from interviews and public events, range from fashion to art, including architecture and design. An unmissable volume for all Abloh fans, and for all fashion lovers.
