Some may say that taking art out of context is kitschy, ignorant, and played out. But, I believe it is a tool that sparks inspiration and conversation. In our transcendent, high tech world we can get anything put anywhere we want in whatever size, color, or shape we dang well please. Therefore, I argue that it is unfair to expect art lovers (or even kids who just think Salvador Dali’s clocks are dope) to shun merchandise covered in our favorite iconic images! So here, my fellow art aficionados, are the best pieces of commercialized art that my little computer could find!

Drink to Van and his accomplishments! You’ll look classy even if you get annihilated and end up on the side of the road. People will be looking at the blossoms, not your broken high heel.
2. Matisse Tee
The drama! The passion! The precision! The Hanes quality cotton! What’s not to love!? (Ok $25 IS a little steep but it’s the price you pay to look cultured.)
Look instantly cool by slipping these Dali-inspired Keds on those intelligent little feet of yours. And don’t worry about running late. Time isn’t real, and the clocks are melting anyway.
4. Picasso Pin
Pin little sleeping Pablo on your breast pocket, and ask him for advice whenever you’re feeling blue (or rosey).
Throw your Van Gogh flask in here for double exposure, and don’t feel bad if you’re eyebrows aren’t “on fleek” in society’s eyes. Frida and her uni-brow have got your back.
