Cool Stuff: Pop Culture Crime Stories Get An LA Art Show
Some of our greatest art has to do with crime. People who commit it, people who fight it, people who study it, these are stories that very easily provide gripping emotion. Innumerable classic movies, music, television and more are based on crime and a new gallery exhibit celebrates it all.
TheHero Complex Galleryin Los Angeles presents an exhibit calledI Am The Law/A Life of Crimeopening Friday August 15. Dozens of artists from all over the world have dramatized their favorite movies and television shows where someone either breaks the laws or enforces them. That opens up a pretty wide spectrum, fromSherlock, The Wire, The Blues Brothers, LutherandHannibalon TV toRoboCop, Lethal Weapon, The Killer, The Godfather, Se7enandDie Hardat the movies. They all are represented plus many more. Below, see just a tiny selection of art fromI Am The Law/A Life of Crime.
