First Light
Certificate of authenticity included
"There’s a saying about getting better with age. People use it for wines. Or when they can’t come up with an imaginative punchline for a birthday card. But when it comes to these fours, which pair is worth treasuring – the brand new one straight from the box or the one that has countless miles and memories attached to it?"
- Filip Gorski, Photographer
MANKOVSKY has teamed up with Munich-based lifestyle retailer BSTN.com and their label Beastin for a limited-edition print run of two exclusive artworks from the label’s unique premium sportswear imagery. Dubbed ‘First Light’ and ‘Last Legs’ the photo series explores the topic of desirability across various stages of wear and tear on a shoe.
Deeply rooted in both basketball and the accompanying sneaker culture, BEASTIN has worked with long-time friend of the family Filip Gorski. A former basketball player himself, the autodidact photo- and videographer has captured some of the most sought-after silhouettes within the culture, each in its own unique setting.
We produce all artworks by hand in Sweden using the best archival Hahnemühle paper and the finest pigment inks which meets and exceeds museum in quality and age resistance.
Each artwork comes stamped and quality assured- signed on its back, numbered appropriately and embossed with the Mankovsky Gallery embossing stamp before being packed in our midnight black velvet roll.
