Peter Gronquist's Fashions of Destruction
References: 1988revolution.blogspot & &imgrefurl=http
I adore these designer weapon pieces from Peter Gronquist’s solo show which includes rocket launchers, chainsaws, missiles, and other dangerous things, all branded with designer logos like Hermes, Prada, Gucci, Burberry, Coach, Paul Smith, Dior, Fendi, Chanel, Versace, Fendi and D&G.
So, does a branded weapon make it any less dangerous? Well no, but it does make it a lot more offensive, but also fairly funny at the same time. The Vuitton electric chair and Pac Man grenades steal the show in my eye.
Also worth a mention in this piece is Anko’s “Louis Vuitton” grenade. Awesome :-)
