Mascolori makes the connection between fashion and art. This sock is based on the artwork 'De Rotterdam' by Outsider Artist Laan Irodjojo (1969). At Galerie Atelier Herenplaats, Laan paints what he sees and preferably these are the buildings, ships, planes, trains and bridges of Rotterdam.
Galerie Atelier Herenplaats has been an art studio since 1991 as part of the Pameijer foundation, with Outsider Art as a specialty. This is not an art movement, but a collective name for art made by people with visual talent and an intellectual disability or psychiatric background. Laan's work is sold at home and abroad.
