Tiffany & Co. | NBA Trophy Redesigns
by Madeleine Schulz
Tiffany & Co. unveils their redesign of six NBA trophies, including The Larry O’Brien trophy, courtesy of artist Victor Solomon. This most recent announcement includes the debut of two new trophies honoring NBA legends: Larry Bird and Earvin “Magic” Johnson.
On the merging of athleticism and art, Solomon says, “Personally and professionally, both sport and art have always been anchors for me. Both disciplines provide this sort of parallel opportunity: class agnostic, no-barrier-to-entry platforms for community, creativity and communication. In both we have style and storytelling, practice and development, legacy and innovation.” Grateful for the NBA’s inclination to push boundaries, the artist focused on the celebration of heroes past and present, telling their stories through art.
