Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction

Borrowing its name from Walter Benjamin’s canonical 1936 essay, Philadelphia’s Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction is a multi-faceted lifestyle brand rooted in the American tradition of careful craftsmanship. Founded in 2006 by Steven Grasse as an artists’ collective, the brand encompasses an online boutique, flagship store and gallery space nestled in Philadelphia's historic Old City neighborhood, in addition to its heralded line of four unique spirits: ROOT, SNAP, RHUBARB, and SAGE.
