Rick and Morty Forever

Huge art show premiere last week at Gallery 1988 ! Hundreds of visitors were their to attend to this art celebration of Rick and Morty, the cartoon created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon for Cartoon Network. Featuring the adventures of Rick Sanchez, an alcoholic scientific genius who has moved in with the family of his daughter Beth, who is a veterinarian and equine cardiac surgeon. He splits his time between developing arcane projects and taking his teenage grandson Morty (and, with increasing occurrence, his older teenage granddaughter Summer) on dangerous and surreal adventures throughout the multiverse. Compounded with preexisting tensions within the family, these events cause the sensitive Morty much distress at home and school.

An already cult cartoon, and an inspiration for dozens of artists. Here is my selection below, but you can have a look at the complete art show on the Gallery 1988 website !
