The “Rocky,” the iconic rocking horse designed by Marc Newson, is one of Magis’ recognizable pieces.
Using this trademark design, the Italian design firm is partnering with Bench’s Dimensione in celebrating a milestone—40 years of exemplary design—by collaborating with 14 Filipino artists from Secret Fresh: Renato Barja Jr., Iya Consorio, Egg Fiasco, Mark Andy Garcia, Jagnus Design Studio, Yeo Kaa, Luis Lorenzana, Galaxie Maria, Gene Paul Martin, Jason Montinola, Jason Moss, Christian Tamondong, Clairelynn Uy and JJ “Exld” Zamoranos.
Secret Fresh is a contemporary art gallery known for its limited-edition vinyl toys, prints and artist collaborations. The gallery is a hub focused on showing quality creations by established and upcoming artists, whose works range from graffiti, comics and film, to animation, music and architecture.
These local artists created their own versions of the “Rocky,” which were unveiled last Aug. 4 at the Studio Dimensione showroom in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.
This is also a first artist collaboration for the “Rocky” anywhere in the world. These one-of-a-kind pieces will also be up for sale.
The exhibit runs for a month—until Sept. 4, in the Studio Dimensione showroom, 28th St. cor. 7th St., BGC, Taguig.
