Attended the unveiling of “Stages,” a collaborative art project between Lance Armstrong and Nike Sportswear in which artwork from over twenty-one of today’s most prominent artists from across the globe will be exhibited and sold to support Livestrong, the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Participating artists in “Stages” ranges from blue-chip, to established, and even emerging artists, including Barry McGee, Ed Ruscha, Jose Parla, JR, KAWS, Os Gemeos, Rosson Crow, Shepard Fairey, Takashi Murakami, and Yoshitomo Nara just to name a few. The exhibition will make its debut at Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin in Paris during the upcoming Tour de France and will continue with stages in other cities, including Los Angeles and New York.

Nice list of artist. Can't wait to see the show. Hopefully someone in France will take pics.

Lance will be riding the KAWS bike this weekend in one of the biggest races of the year, a spring classic, Milan-San Remo! Now, I don't think Lance is really suited to win this race, but I'm pretty sure he'll have the freshest ride in the race.
