  • Robin Givhan discusses her new book Make It Ours: Crashing the Gates of Culture with Virgil Abloh

    Robin Givhan discusses her new book Make It Ours: Crashing the Gates of Culture with Virgil Abloh
    Aug 22 2025
    Pulitzer Prize–winning culture critic Robin Givhan discusses her new book about fashion icon Virgil Abloh. She profiles Abloh’s legendary work and impact, revealing how the son of Ghanaian immigrants was able to infiltrate all aspects of our culture and inspire millions. Not only a remarkable biography of his singular creative force, the book is a powerful meditation on fashion and race, taste and exclusivity, genius and luxury. With access to Abloh’s family, friends, collaborators, and contemporaries, and featuring a cast of fascinating characters ranging from groundbreaking Black designers like Ozwald Boateng, to Abloh’s mercurial but critical employer and mentor Kanye West, Givhan tells a captivating, great American story of how a young man’s rise amid this cultural moment would upend a century’s worth of ideas about luxury and taste.

    Estefanía Vélez Rodríguez (b. 1985, Mayagüez, PR) is a Puerto Rican artist who lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. As a dual-tongued individual, she utilizes the symbolic language of painting as a bridge between many cultures and spaces. Her paintings formally address questions between abstraction, non-representation, simplification, symbol, and painting as a language with ambiguous structural limitations. Her landscapes meander and distort physical spaces like mazes meant to be misleading.

    Utilizing chemical reactions within a painting, Estefanía experiments with raw pigments, spray materials, oil mediums, and acrylic polymers. Her painting language ruptures visual spaces, opening the viewer's receptivity to fleeting spaces, times, and emotional presence.


    In this interview, she talks in-depth about the seven paintings she has on display as part of the group show Past Tense/Future Perfect at NYC's Marc Straus Gallery, which will be up through August 8.
