COARSE x Mercedes Benz for Culture Cartel 2019 / Possession @ Rotofugi (Nov 9-Dec 1)
@culturecartelcon has announced that @coarselife & @mercedesbenzsg "will join forces to create something larger than life", for the coming year-end Culture Cartel 2019 (Dec 6-8)!
UPDATED: "This weekend we are coming to Singapore, and we can’t wait to show you what we’ve been working on.
We will be exhibiting at @culturecartelcon, a three-day event at the F1 Pit Building showcasing art and street culture from around the world. We’re bringing an exclusive vinyl release as well some of our latest LA-made original sculptures, and in collaboration with @mercedesbenzsg we have designed a gravity-defying art installation that interacts with a CLA-class car.
Mark will also be speaking on panels and getting to know coarse collectors. Come visit us at booths A9 and A10—we can’t wait to see you." (@coarselife)

But first, coarse will be exhibiting at Rotofugi (November 9-December 1, 2019), with "Possession" show, whereby in addition to coarse originals, the exhibit will also have two different vinyl sculpture releases available first at the opening reception, including a special edition collector's set for a brand new sculpture that can only be pre-ordered in person at Rotofugi during the exhibit run!

Meanwhile, here's a re-look at the result of Joshua Vides' collaboration with Mercedes Benz for Culture Cartel 2018:
