WARQUIAT
The brand “WarQuiat”—named after Warhol & Basquiat, was built using the energy of the people who admire them. It is a unique brand of clothing that is not considered “street-wear” but instead “ART-wear”. WarQuiat is driven by the artistic energy of the streets of SoHo where Warhol and Basquiat frequently roamed in the 80’s. To Reezo Palacio, the founder of WarQuiat, SoHo is the place where everyone flaunts who they are. SoHo is a fashion, art, and music-oriented area full of many people working behind the scenes. WarQuiat is not about the start or the end of Warhol and Basquiat’s art collaborations, rather, it is about the energy they left behind through their art. “Warhol is you, Basquiat is you—in different forms, you choose.” –Reezo Palacio
