This stunning 'Veep' artwork is fit for a POTUS
Selina Meyer's stint as POTUS may be over, but whenever Veep's hapless heroine wants an ego boost, she need look no further than the spectacular collection of artwork that Los Angeles' Gallery1988 is currently exhibiting in honor of the Emmy-winning comedy's sixth season.
“Veep fans love the show’s iconic and hilarious characters, and we thought that an art show would be a really fun way to allow some of our artistic fans to reinterpret their favorite characters and scenes through their own works," says Yauny Wheaton, director of program advertising for HBO. "Gallery1988 had so many great ideas about which artists to approach for the show, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the collection of art that’s going to be on display this month.”
The exhibit runs through April 22 at the West Coast gallery, but if fans can't get to LA to admire the collection in person, prints are currently available for purchase online through Gallery1988's website.
"We're so excited to be celebrating a show like Veep, with such a die-hard and engaged fan base, by supporting even more creativity to spawn from its genius," says Jensen Karp, co-owner of Gallery1988.
Here's a look at the artists who contributed to the show:
100% Soft Alexander Wells Anthony Petrie Barry Blankenship Bruce White Chet Phillips Chris McGuire Clark Orr Clinton Reno Cuyler Smith Dan Mumford Doug LaRocca Fred Harper Heather Perry Kiersten Essenpreis Lou Pimentel Luke McGarry Maggie Chiang Malisa Suchayana Maria Bjornbom-Oberg Nan Lawson Oh Sew Nerdy Phil Noto Rockets are Red Steve Dressler
