Tobias Rehberger For MCM

The artist is the latest addition to the brand's collaborative catalogue.

MCM is no stranger to the art world – hooking up with Stefan Strumbel in 2014 and tapping the illustrator MPY for an in-store last year – so it’s hardly surprising that as part of its 40th anniversary celebrations it should release a new collaboration with someone from said world.

Launching this week during the Hong Kong edition of the infamous art fair Art Basel, this season the brand has joined forces with German contemporary artist Tobias Rehberger for a limited edition line-up of bags and apparel.

 

            

 

“My source of inspiration is kind of everything,” the sculptor admits as he discusses his inspirations for the capsule collection in an accompanying short, above.

Here he plays with the same bold lines and monochrome palette evident in much of his personal work, reimaging the brand’s three letter moniker as an XL print; a made-to-order collection of bright coloured luggage pieces completes the partnership elsewhere.
