Ron English's 'Last Supper in South Park' was the artwork shown to kick off the South Park gallery. Now more original pieces have been unveiled since the Year of the Fan South Park gallery kicked off on the 28th.
The Year of the Fan South Park gallery celebrates 15 years of the unapologetic foul-mouthed cartoon that's been adored by many. Ron English invited 14 additional artists to give their own interpretations of the beloved animated series and so far, all of them look extremely impressive. Fans are also encouraged to submit their own original pieces as contributors.
The Year of the Fan South Park exhibition is currently running at the Opera Gallery in New York and will remain open until April 10th, 2011.
