Erik Brunetti
Erik Brunetti (born 1967) is an American artist and designer. Credited as the creator of subversive street wear, he is a leading example of the post-situationist approach in design and art. His work focuses on re-appropriating various pop culture themes and creating new aesthetic ideals. It often evokes a provocative commentary on political systems and corporate identity, drawing inspiration from the freedom and exuberance of the 1960's. As one of the most influential street wear brands during 1990's, FUCT has become a household name and has had a huge influence on the subsequent generation of street wear brands and designers. From graffiti writer during the 1980's to fine artist, Brunetti has successfully maintained artistic integrity, consistently pushing the boundaries of anti-consumerist counterculture through his artwork and designs. His art was exhibited in several venues during the 1990s, including a group show at Team Gallery alongside Tracey Emin, as well as a solo exhibition at OK Harris Gallery, curated by Ivan C. Karp. He has been hailed as one of the most prominent figures to have emerged from American street wear culture.

Filmed a short movie 3 weeks ago. Shot on R3D camera- I have been scoring the sound design with friends for two weeks. Sound is 50% of the end product. learning so much- Love the saturation and colors. Colors tell stories as much as sound. The hues give this film the setting. I am very excited. *Filming part 2 in desert next month

DAVID MANN / FUCT
September 21st 09, 17:48
As far back as the late 1960’s early 70’s American icon David Mann is world known for his legendary artwork in Easy Rider Magazine. As a life long rider himself, many consider Mann to be the epitome of the biker artist. Mann’s paintings depicted the outlaw against surreal backgrounds, distorted skylines and colorful images that celebrated the chopper motorcycle as well as the freedom of the open road.
Fuct is honored and privileged to present the following David Mann t-shirts, in the “American Outlaw Series”. Two designs will be released this week. One short sleeve- one long sleeve, black only. Union Los Angeles will have stock.

BRUNETTI FOR MEDICOM’S F@BRICK
September 2nd 09, 1:35
*last week I received clearance form Nabe at Medicom to post these previews of the fabric samples I designed for Medicom’s F@brick division.
I am designing a capsule set which will consist of a Backpack, Waist Bag, Slippers and Pillow. We chose to replicate the camouflage of the Vietnam M-1 helmet cover, also referred to as the Jungle leaf pattern or the “Mitchell”. These helmets were often decorated with graffiti by soldiers depicting symbols of peace, nihilism and drug use. (This ‘Nam camo was only used for helmet covers during 1963-1970.)
This wasn’t an easy task- I am very impressed with the end results Medicom has achieved. I am very excited for this project, as the Mitchell camo is one of the few camo’s that hasn’t been exploited in this industry.
Medicom will be releasing the Erik Brunetti F@brick set spring 2010. “Get some”
