Mouthwatering & socially-engaged! Wayne THIEBAUD’s skateboard art collection is a bittersweet nostalgia for Americana culture.

In tandem with the opening of the Fondation Beyeler’s Wayne Thiebaud retrospective exhibition in 2023, THE SKATEROOM has created a collection of limited edition skateboard artworks, marking our third collaboration with the Fondation Beyeler (See: Cindy SHERMAN, Andy WARHOL). The collection features: Tomato Bowl (solo); Fruits, Vegetables and Melons (solo); Jolly Cones (diptych); Three Cones (triptych). These four pieces, each released in a limited run of 100, are celebrations of Thiebaud’s outstanding oeuvre, and exemplify the artist’s mouthwatering, yet somehow bittersweet, depictions of retro Americana confectionery.

The Limited Wayne THIEBAUD Collection

The Limited Wayne THIEBAUD Collection

___ The limited Wayne Thiebaud collection is now available via the Fondation Beyeler shop and at theskateroom.com. Special thanks to the Wayne Thiebaud Foundation, Acquavella Galleries and Fondation Beyeler.  

As always, 10% of all revenue from these pieces will go directly to funding our social-skate partners. In this case, the incredible EduSkate program, a skateboarding and education curriculum by Concrete Jungle Foundation which empowers at-risk youth around the world. In 2022, CJF launched the Edu-Skate Worldwide Network, an initiative to develop high quality educational programs, connecting social skateboarding organizations worldwide with a collection of tools and resources. It reaches 400 youth per year, and CJF needs support to double this impact in 2023. This includes edu-skate programming across Peru, Jamaica, & Morocco, expansion of the Edu Skate Worldwide Network (ESWN), and Planting Seeds Apprenticeship. By purchasing an edition from this collection, you can become part of creating lasting, social change around the world.
