Original Fake Tarot      2007      Japan                                                   Art Medium: Description: Original Fake opened its first boutique in the Aoyama district of Tokyo, but is now franchised in many countries. It sells expensive clothing and fashion accessories. As part of an invitation to the opening of their Autumn and Winter collection in 2007, they included a partial set of six tarot cards. These were printed in rather acidic colours and presented in a black envelope. They take the form of adhesive backed stickers, presumably in the hope that people might use them to decorate items and further promote their brand name.
