RAIN BY YUSUKE HANAI X ALLRIGHTSRESERVED

Posted on 2022-01-24

Japanese artist Yusuke Hanai continues his collaboration with AllRightsReserved on the new Rain sculpture. Simply titled, the piece features one of Hanai’s familiar male characters in the middle of a downpour, hands clutching the collar of his green parka. While the piece seems to have a slightly weary vibe to it, the artist has expressed his hope that each viewer enjoys the work from their own perspective. Hanai adds that “Rainy days never stay.”

TUBULAR BABE BY MCBESS X THE DUDES

Posted on 2022-01-17

French artist Mcbess returns his first new original art toy in a while (and we almost missed it). Maybe it was the egg nog or sleeping in on cold Winter days, but somehow we overlooked the pre-order for the brand-new Tubular Babe art toy from McBess and The Dudes of which he is part. Thankfully, the pre-order is still open.

The sunny, leisurely Tubular Babe features Mcbess’s female character enjoying a casual day on the inner tube. A follow-up to his (Half) Mermaid (2013) and Les Viandardes (2013) releases, the lovely figure features tattoos throughout much as the previous toys. Named after Mcbaise’s new album, Tubes, the figure also features a Mcbaise stamp on her lower back. Unlike previous drops, the Tubular Babe comes through in living color in contrast to McBess’s usual mono gray treatment.
