Game Informer has posted a nice preview of the 2007 I am 8-bit art show, along with some of the art that will be featured. I am 8-bit is an annual art exhibition that celebrates classic videogame culture and iconography, with an emphasis on Nintendo and their NES-era third parties. It's also the source of some amazing game-related art, like the mega-adorable "Mega Man" by Suzuki Shuji. We'd be proud to display any of these paintings, sculptures, or crafts in our own Fancaves.
Just like every year, we'll be gazing wistfully at these previews and cursing our luck for not being Californian or California-adjacent. If you happen to be in the LA area between April 17 and May 12, we urge you to go to Gallery Nineteen Eighty Eight and support the very best kind of fanboyism: the kind that manifests in honest creative expression (fanfic excluded).
[Update 1: changed the preview picture to something friendlier.]

I hear about this every year, but I've never actually gone. Maybe I'll head on down to LA this year and attend. Yay for being in California!

I'm in L.A. but I missed this last year like an idiot. I'll definitely go this year and take some pictures for the fanboy homies. Big ups ladies and gentlemen, big ups.
