In his line of work you can see lots of Pokemon creations along with some other loved Video Games related characters such as Mega man, Zelda and lots of Comic Book creations such as Green Lantern, Wolverine, Deadpool and many more.

Toronto Artist Posts Video Game Neighborhood Watch Signs

Posted on by

Beware Toronto criminals! This neighborhood is protected by an all-star guard of video game heroes.

A neighborhood guarded by the likes of Super Mario, Samus from Metroid, and the Blue Bomber himself, Mega Man? Sounds like a neighborhood I’d want to live in.

Toronto artist Andrew Lamb decided upon himself to give the community where he lived the heroes they deserved by printing up these video game inspired neighborhood watch signs. Printed, as in the clever wheatpaste portraits Lamb used to easily transform the signs hanging around his block – around 70 neighborhood watch signs, to be precise.

Not only did Lamb use video game characters as his subjects, but also famous movie and television characters, like Bruce Lee or Inspector Gadget (the greatest crime-fighting duo ever), which you can find tons of pictures of over at his Instagram account.

I doubt Lamb’s own neighborhood watch signs will have much effect on would-be criminals, but against either a fire-breathing king lizard, giant alien pterodactyl, or a gang of renegade robots created by a mad scientist, they might just do the job. And you know what? That’s enough piece of mind for me.

Renaissance Era Paintings Inspired By Classic Video Games

Dan Hernandez Defenders of Ataros image

From artist Dan Hernandez come a gallery of paintings that blend iconic games and iconic art.

Coming soon to the Kim Foster Gallery in New York City are the works of artist Dan Hernandez, whose latest pieces bring together the unthinkable duo of classic video games and Italian Renaissance-styled portraits into individual masterpieces.

In his second solo exhibition, entitled “Genesis,” Dan chose some of his favorite games of his childhood and portrayed them in a style that is more fitting a cathedral in Rome, being worshiped by the holiest of monks, than in a downtown gallery in the Big Apple being gawked by a bunch of nerds (uh, no offense, guys and gals.)

They are really something else; each canvas is sprawling with 15th & 16th century hallmarks, the kind of artistic flourishes that the greats of the era used, and brilliantly mixed with the gaming likes of Space Invaders, Missile Command, and even that pesky plumber himself, Super Mario. It’s video games as art, and it’s flippin’ wild.

You can see the rest of Dan’s work over at the Kim Foster Gallery website, or you can make a pilgrimage to New York City from now until April 26 to see them in person.
