Whether you’re cruising the rooftop at Soho House NY amidst world famous artists Mr Brainwash (Exit Through the Gift Shop @ Sunshine Theaters) and FOOX (”As Within So Without” @ Lyons Wier Gallery) or watching the Staten Island Ferry wax and wane @ FOOX Studios on State Street ~ NYC and FOOX are now BFF.

FOOX, a native of Africa and reared in New Zealand, exhibits a body of work based upon X-Rays and vinyl paint backlit on custom light boxes. Hustler of Culture hit us up.

Coming right on the cusp of FOOX’s first art film “L’Incroyable Symbolisme de FOOX” (sneak peak look into the film) is Rocketboom’s first encounter with FOOX. Bearded, grizzly, and filled with LOVE, FOOX opens up to viewers on his perspective on the art world, popular culture and toys. And the energy between Ella and FOOX is very interesting. Ella being a Leo. check coolhunting blog AnimalNewYork

From the past to the present and onto the future. FOOX “Buddha Bucks Wallets” featured on the Thrillist and based upon original artwork (”Buddha Bucks“) and featured at the Paper Magazine Nightlife Awards 2008. “Buddha Bucks Wallets” are available right now and limited to what we got in stock! The first 50 people to purchase a “Buddha Bucks Wallet” will get a limited edition print “FORTUNE” (priced at $19.99).

Now looking to the future FOOX is working closely with JUMP shoes to bring about holy rollers for your dogs (aka feet). Then you can play footsies with your friendsies. FOOX Shoes in the works. And a collaboration with Red Bull for late September is set to blow your socks off.

And around the corner is San Diego Comic Con, the launch of the FOOX iPhone app, and the very long awaited and overdue FOOX Elemental Badgers! All the while, we do it FOOXie style.
