Stewie and the City

August 4th, 2008

The Paley Center in New York City (probably still known to many of you as The Museum of Television and Radio) has just opened an exhibit of artwork based upon the animated series Family Guy. It’s a Freakin Art Show opened Friday, August 1st, and runs through September 7. The roster of 21 artists includes animators Joel Trussell and Joe Vaux.

The suave Stewie above is by Kathie Olivas.

(A West Coast version of the show (“What The Deuce Are You Staring At!?!”) appeared at Los Angeles Paley Center back in 2006, so this is an encore for Easterners.)

The artwork was commissioned by Fox, making it a clear commercial tie-in , but worth seeing nonetheless. (Not surprisingly, you can buy giclée prints here.)

After the jump, a bonus music video for Morcheeba, directed by Joe Trussell. Just because I like it.
