IN JUST A FEW...

We'll open up G1988 (Venice) for the first time ever! "Multiplayer," featuring 30 artists creating limited edition screenprints all inspired by classic video games. We already have a few people waiting outside the new space and it's only 5 PM! Here are two more peeks for you guys of some posters from the show, curated by our friends at OMGPosters.



Daniel Danger's take on "Silent Hill" is, in my opinion, one of his best. A lot of people always assume when we release a screenprint it sells out in just a few seconds. This print will not help that assumption.



Adam Hanson shows at Gallery1988 for the first time ever, this time depicting the cute LIL KITTIES, and homage to Final Fantasy III. I just want to stare and giggle at this all day. And I will.

Hopefully see you tonight!!! A brand new space for us. It's pretty crazy, as we've watched galleries move several times since their inception, we're steadfast in Melrose (approaching 7 years now) - had a few years in San Francisco, and are now ready to plant our flag over here. Come celebrate with us!

THEY'RE BACK!

For this year's "I Am 8-Bit," Scott Campbell created 27 small PacMan paintings and we've made a sweet little print set with 5 of them!

These little guys are 2 3/4 x 2 3/4 inches each and limited edition of 50. They'll be sold individually or in a set of all 5! And Scott is going to hand sign and number each and every single one!

These prints will be ready next week and will be available in LA and SF, as well as on our website! Hooray!

Visitors...

It's been artists galore lately, even with quicky (and blog undocumented) visits from Erik Alos and Shepard Fairey, and today was no exception.



Misha swang through to drop off her new I AM 8-BIT masterpieces and sign prints we produced for this year's exhibit. This post could be a love letter to Misha, but I know that's boring so I'll just put it like this: Misha understands everything. The art aspect, the business side and the world of art galleries. She's always been there for us (and "Vice Versa" in that awful Ben Savage/Judge Reinhold switching bodies movie way), and now it looks like it's paying off. We'll be showing a lot more of Misha soon, both in LA and SF, and it just feels right. But yes, these prints are from her "Last Supper" 8-bit piece last year (which is still BY FAR the most talked about piece from the 2006 installment), and no, we aren't taking pre-orders yet.



Los Angeles resident, and "artist we know with the deepest voice," Isaac Pierro also rolled by and checked in. He came with presents (drawings for me and Katie), which is always a plus. He's currently working on his 8-bit piece and a smaller group show he's in here at 1988 in a few months. He also let me peek into his sketchbook, which, to put it nicely, questions a lot of racist imagery. Someone call Spike Lee, I think he's feeling Bamboozled.

He Looks Like Andy Richter

Just got in these incredible giclee prints from genius artist, and Webby Award recepient, Brandon Bird. He's always a hit with his random celeb portraits (and the ladies), and he doesn't miss with these. They're all hand signed and numbered and on fancy paper, like the Gettysburg Address, sort of.


"Nobody Wants To Play Sega With Harrison Ford"
$50.00


"Lazy Sunday Afternoon"
$45.00


"Man Of Tomorrow"
$45.00


"Signifier Signified" (N. Chomsky)
$45.00


I'm excited to see what he does for 8-bit this year, as he asked me earlier in the year if anyone had ever done "Altered Beast" (Sega Master System represent, and morph into a werewolf!)
