Gallery 1988- Idiot Box- Artwork Inspired by TV

BatCaveLowRes“Batcave” by Chet Phillips (Click image to enlarge)

Gallery1988(West) presents “Idiot Box,” an art show inspired by current and classic television shows. For my entry, I paid tribute to the 1966 Batman TV show with a rendition of the batcave set. Replete with batmobile, an endless supply of high tech, state of the art computers, lab equipment and power reactor (plus one tongue-in-cheek addition.) “Batcave” is a signed limited edition Giclee print run of 50.

Mint Condition 2 Art Show- ChetArt Entry

The Detective

“The Detective” was created for Ltd. Gallery’s “Mint Condition 2” show which opens March 1st and is presented in conjunction with Emerald City Comic Con. For this comic book themed art show I created a still life incorporating Batman’s 1940’s Batmobile… in kiddie ride form. Closer inspection reveals several references to some of Batman’s famous foes. This piece will be available for sale at the gallery as a 1/1 16″ x 20 framed Giclee and as an edition of signed and matted 11″ x 14″ prints (20.) If you can’t make it to the gallery the edition will be made available for sale through the gallery’s web site.

Norman Saunders

I’ve referenced Norman Saunders in a couple of interviews I’ve given in the past as an early art influence. My first connection to his artwork was the Batman trading cards released in 1966, which I carefully and completely collected (only to have them purged during a family move.) I also was able to do some trading for a handful of the Mars Attacks cards that were a bit before my time but never managed to own a full set of the originals. Norman’s work was so unique to me as a child, because he was offering up fantasy and superhero subjects as beautifully rich paintings. And the subject matter! Martians burning people alive and giant robots crushing cities and people. Tame stuff these days, but very thrilling to my young eyes back then.
