Bill Murray Themed Art Show Opening TONIGHT!

Did you know that the latest from LA's awesome Gallery 1988 is Please Post Bills, an art tribute to beautiful, embitter, pock-marked comedy legend, the irrepressible Mr. Bill Murray? Star of Garfield and Garfield's Still Fat?

 I kid, of course, because I have nothing but respect for Mr. Murray, and my favourite films of all time include: Ghostbusters and Lost in Translation, and I love Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Life Aquatic, Groundhog Day, Zombieland, Stripes, and holy shit, even Meatballs. Bill makes everything better. And no other actor is as deserving of such a show.

Art by Rich Pellegrino.
If you can't get there in person (like me on the other side of the world!) then you can get more info here. Or join me after the jump to view another couple of favourites!



I love this piece by Dave Perillo (I'm a fan of Dave, and have bought quite a few of his prints):
 Bill is captured beautifully here in all his slimy glory by Jason Edmiston:


And finally, artist Jeff Boyes captures a more serene moment:


Goddamn, I love Bill Murray! Do be sure to check out much more work at the link above!

    That Ghostbusters one is just perfect. I can't wait to see the rest of them.

    Gallery 1988 is the best thing ever. I just realized that I drove right past it last week while in L.A., and I'm so mad that I didn't realize it and stop. I also didn't stop at Pink's Hot Dogs and I'm still mad about it.
