Make Fetch Happen:
The GAP has unveiled their 13 limited edition "ArtistEditions" t-shirts produced in association with the 2008 Whitney Biennial and Art Production Fund. The shirts, which will retail from $28 to $38 were designed by 13 Whitney Biennial artists including Kerry James Marshall and Glenn Ligon . The shirts will be available mid May at select GAP stores and online at Gap.com. They will also be available at the Whitney museum gift shop.
I'm not a printed t-shirt wearer but I may have to get Kerry's, at right (does this undo the Gap's sweatshop-supporting reputation, though?):

Unrelated to this post but important info: Carla is super awesome.
I just bought the Marshall shirt this morning. Couldn't resist the image.
I broke down and ordered both, just like I bought that Kehinde Wiley towel at Target (and turned it into a tapestry wall hanging). Gotta support the black artists but you're right, it would be nice if they had some women--can you imagine a Carrie Mae Weems t-shirt? I wouldn't have even hesitated, Gap or no Gap.
