Rick Owens reduces material and structural concepts into archetypal forms to arrive at his minimalist artworks. A self-professed ‘control freak’, he has meticulously shaped his practice across a spectrum including fashion and interior design, resulting in striking artworks like his angular Half Box chairs.
Owens’ signature aesthetic was born in Los Angeles when he began to create bespoke pieces for his bunker style loft, amalgamating many modernist influences with his own provocative tastes.

Rick Owens
Rick Owens grew up in Porterville, a small town in California’s San Joaquin valley. Drawn to pre-gentrified Hollywood and L.A.’s punk underground in the 80s, Owens studied painting at what is now Otis College of Art and Design. He then switched to Los Angeles Trade Technical-College to learn pattern-making and draping.
