Julian Schnabel

Schnabel's series of seven porcelain cups and saucers for illy features his longtime inspiration, the surfer-character Chuck. There are five espresso cups, each labeled for a different weekday, and each sporting Chuck wearing a new expression. In keeping with the surfer theme, the espresso collection package is shaped like a life-preserver. The "Saturday" and "Sunday" cups are full-size mugs, again featuring Chuck, suggesting more time to relax and enjoy a cup of illy. More
