MAD MEN COLLECTION - GRIFF 8419 COLUMBUS GOLD

Madison Avenue runs between Park Avenue and Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, Since the twenties, it has been centre of the American Advertising Industry.

The MAD-ISON MEN were the golden boys of the sixties, who "dreamed up" the images of iconic brands of the USA. Inspired by this theme, Louis De Poortere has created a new collection of "Vintage Sixties" rugs. A mix of straight and broken lines, of dull and shining yarns, of smooth and ragged pencil strokes 

GRIFF

Here we find an indication of pain and disorder, of the rifts and big changes like women's lib, vietnam, the black panthers and may '68 but also of the creative energy of action painting in the late sixties.
