Gucci x Mickalene Thomas Book Party

ARCH NYC partnered with MATTE Projects and Gucci to deliver this incredible event at Miami Art Week 2021 to celebrate the release of a new monograph by renowned 21st-century artist, Mickalene Thomas. Inspired by the 1970’s themes in Thomas’ work and the disco style of Gucci and Balenciaga’s Hacker Collection, MATTE and ARCH transformed the physical space above Gucci’s retail store at Paradise Plaza to bring Thomas’ visual world into play with three distinct areas united by mirrors, bold colors, and disco energy.  Taking cues from the artist’s work, the venue at Paradise Plaza was transformed into a ’70s-style disco, with DJ Kitty Ca$h on the 1s and 2s.

According to VOGUE, “everyone was at the Gucci x Mickalene Thomas party” during Art Basel Miami.
