As part of the official launch, Equest will be unveiling the latest collaborative collection from Incase. Together with The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Incase have developed a distinctive collection featuring Warhol's artwork applied to select cases, sleeves and bags for iPhone, iPad and MacBook. This continuing series with Warhol's late-era Camouflage and the Banana screen print created in 1966, which also appeared on the cover of The Velvet Underground & Nico's self-titled debut album. Additional signature Warhol graphics are featured on iPhone cases including his striking 1964 Flowers print, Dollar Signs (1982), a wry commentary on art as a consumer item, and a colorful cow portrait taken from his whimsical 1966 Cow Wallpaper.

Following the launch event to be held at A Curious Teepee on 11 August 2011, the Warhol collection of products will be available for sale at A Curious Teepee exclusively for a limited time. This lifestyle store cafe/bar and social space at Orchard link is the ideal location to showcase this unique collection since its retail experience is curated around the idea of living curiously and finding inspiration in the everyday, a philosophy that resonates closely with Warhol's iconic pop art.

A wide range of Incase products are currently already available at Apple Premium Resellers such as NuBox, EpiCentre and iStudio. Incase Audio and designer collections will be available at selected lifestyle and electronic stores in the coming weeks.
