From the artist, Bobby O'Herlihy: "Hello hello! I was given the privilege to be a participant in iam8bit's "It's the ShizNick!" Show dedicated to all things 90's Nickelodeon. The show will be beginning tomorrow, April 19th at iam8bit gallery on Sunset Blvd in California. They were looking for something more than a straight character redesign, they were looking for something a bit different.
I decided to draw one of Nick's catchiest tunes, "Bangin' on a Trash Can" by Doug Funny and Skeeter Valentine!(with older, retro versions of them thrown in there of course :] ). To this day I'll catch myself humming that tune without realizing I'm doing it. If you find yourself doing the same I hope you appreciate this piece as well."
Created for the following exhibition:
It's the shizNICK!
4/19/2013-5/5/2013
iam8bit's first EPIC show of 2013!
ALL AGES!
FREE ADMISSION!
DRINKS & FUN TIMES!
Attractions include:
* Live Tunes by DJ Lance (from Yo! Gabba Gabba)
* A Very Cool Photo Playset (but we can't tell you any more, sorry)
* SUPER-SIZED "Animated GIF Theatre" (quite literally, 25 feet wide)
* And, of course... SLIMMMMEEEEE!!
........................
Excuse us while we get a little misty:
NICKELODEON - a network brave enough to broadcast bold, awesome, epic and irreverent programming that embraces the free-flying spirit of being a kid, ignoring the conventional rules of TV development and just... well... going for it!
An entire generation was raised on NICK's onslaught of 90's awesomeness - truly weird, funny, and honest entertainment that speaks for itself:
* The Ren & Stimpy Show
* The Adventures of Pete & Pete
* Rocko's Modern Life
* Salute Your Shorts
* Doug
* Double Dare
* You Can't Do That on Television
* Aaahh!!! Real Monsters
* Rugrats
* Are You Afraid of the Dark?
* Hey Dude
* SpongeBob SquarePants...
The list flows on, but you get the picture.
NICKELODEON has had a lasting cultural influence, far deeper than any other cable channel can claim.
So join us for "It's the shizNICK," where OVER 60 ARTISTS will pay homage to the good ol' days of the network that ruled our youth.
There'll be paintings, prints, sculptures, plush - featuring your favorite characters, places and things that helped to shape your pre-pubescent brain.
And perhaps some surprises, too...
