Boston KarmaLoop Field Trip!
The luckiest varmint in the world!
The images are all over the usual places so by now you know that yes, you missed out on one hot opening–that being Shephard Fairey’s first museum retrospective at Boston’s ICA. Endless props and kudos to the workaholic crew at Karmaloop, who put their own very cool beans spin on the event by not only sponsoring it, but hosting a pre-event dinner (where we found ex-Laces N.Y. boutique own Louis “Sexy Lou” Colon, who we now know is doing it for the Boston-based P.F. Fliers), and an after party, too!!
Extra massive thanks to Dina and Greg Selkoe, founders/owners of Karmaloop, who let us stop by the office for a tour. Together they define what is meant by the often-over used term “good people”: creative, SMART, generous, expansive, loyal, humane and slightly nuts. Which is all illustrated rather nicely by the image above. It’s Dina trying to introduce me to the very shy, office glue-trap mouse. The back story? Once when Dina and Greg were away, someone put down glue traps, which were quickly removed upon the owners’ return. The fellow in the cage here was rescued from one of those traps, deglued and provided with a posh home where he will never again have to worry about any traps of any sort. Gotta love this sort of happy ending.
