StockX announced a collaboration with Hong Kong-based contemporary artist Michael Lau on a special edition of the artist’s iconic SALVATOR MICHAEL character. Limited to just 99 units, the SALVATOR MICHAEL “StockX” art toy features a green and white colorway and will be available exclusively on StockX starting Wednesday, August 18 at 1 AM EST / 1 PM HKT.
The product will be released via DropX, StockX’s direct-to-consumer product release method that gives brands the opportunity to release exclusive products directly to the platform’s global audience. Launched in August of 2020, DropX was created to further amplify and support brands and creatives around the world who are at the forefront of current culture.
Often referred to as the “Godfather of Designer Toys,” Michael Lau was one of the pioneers of the collectible figures space. His earliest SALVATOR MICHAEL figure was a reimagination of da Vinci’s Salvator Mundi, first introduced in 2018 at the ‘Collect them All!’ exhibition at Christie’s Hong Kong. Since then, the figure has been reinvented and featured at exhibitions around the world, from Art Basel in Hong Kong to Oh…My Toy! in London. With the release of SALVATOR MICHAEL “StockX,” Michael Lau joins a roster of global artists and creators — including Megan Thee Stallion, J Balvin and Heron Preston — who have released products via DropX.
Priced at USD$515, visit https://stockx.com/lp/michael-lau-Salvator-michael-dropx on August 18 at 1 AM EST / 1 PM HKT to grab the exclusive SALVATOR MICHAEL “StockX” collectible.
