For the past 3 years gallery 1988 in L.A has been paying tribute to some of the cultural pillars supporting the roof of our artistic world. Stan Lee, The Beasty Boys, and this year….. He Man. Inviting 100 artists to submit art for the toy line so dear to us all 1988 has put together a rare insight into eternity and the shinanigans of The Master of the Universe.

Here’s a preview of images i’ve managed to gleam randomly off the net. Hopefully will have some more once the show launches this Friday.

Jeff Boyes

Ayami Kawashima

N.C Winters

The good, The Bad and the Ugly. Alex Fugazi

Hoping to get a limited quantities of these mag each drop for some Australian distro.

Seeing as The GasLamp Killer will be playing the after party for the LTRHDS exhibition in Feb 2010 and the fact that The Flying Lotus played at the opening of the first LTRHDS show so many years ago this mix seems too good to be true. Enjoy. Hope you all have a good new years.
