Internet Memes as Fine Art

By John Farrier in Art, Book & Literature on Jul 21, 2009 at 6:42 pm

Can a dramatic prairie dog be fine art? If you’re looking for squirrels in underpants or zombies in romantic moonlight, then this oil painting and others like it are for you. They’re availabe at McPhee. I can’t find a general directory of these meme-themed works, but if you look at the related products section at the link, you’ll find more more like it.

    I’d get a bunch. Badger Badger, Chocolate Rain, DPD, etc, and put ‘em in the computer room.

    This site has a lot of cool stuff! The monkey pic is like something from Wizard of Oz.

    Not to be too picky, but the name of the shop is Archie McPhee. It’s a local novelty store in Seattle.

    Archie McPhee really is a treasure. The descriptions alone are worth visiting the site over and over. They have been around for a long time now.
