Virgil Abloh has emerged into one of the biggest artist of this decade; from fashion shows to art galleries he has his hand in just about everything. Abloh got his start in fashion in the early 2000s when his t-shirt designs caught the attention of Kanye, shortly after he joined the inner circle and…well the rest is history. In 2018 he became the Creative Director for Louis Vuitton, the first African American to do so which gave him global recognition. This exhibit at MCA Chicago is this story in a physical space.
