Whisper Editions Brings Affordable Art to South Street Seaport

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

Whisper Editions—an e-commerce site that taps artists and designers to create limited-run products—is opening up a brick and mortar shop in South Street Seaport next week. Founded by former T Magazine photo director Judith Puckett-Rinella, the company's collaborations run the gamut from acrylic Edie Parker clutches (co-designed by Interview editorial director Fabien Baron) to $60 art prints and diamond-encrusted shark jaws.

And, rather than set such an eclectic mix against glossy white gallery walls, Puckett-Rinella spent months scouring lodges and cabins across the country for rustic, New-Deal-era Park Service furnishings. Stop by on Friday, December 12th to shop Whisper's latest editions underneath a giant antler chandelier.
