On Thursday, more than 80 artists will gather in Los Angeles at the Gallery1988 studio on Melrose Ave to display their latest creative efforts. But this isn’t just your ordinary, run-of-the-mill hipster art gathering. This week’s event, “Please Post Bills,” may be taking place for the most important artistic endeavor of this or any generation – these artists are celebrating Bill Murray.
Don’t get me wrong, there will be plenty of hipsters, I’m sure, but the works that will be on display at “Please Post Bills” will be celebrating our favorite films of one of the greatest comedic actors to ever portray a slow-witted country club greenskeeper, a bank-robbing clown, or a slacker army recruit who can barely complete 20 pushups. So in case you’re in the area and you want to stop on by Gallery1998 to show your respect to Murray or pick up a print, we have a little preview of what you can expect.
I’ll warn you right now – I may buy every print of Scott Derby’s “4 of a Kind” just so nobody else on this planet has it.
UPDATE: Even more Bill Murray fan art here.
