While Universal's Dark Universe may be on an indefinite hiatus after a major box office fail last year, the Universal Monsters are still very much alive in the form of stunning artwork from some of the industry's best!
The Mondo Gallery, located at 4115 Guadalupe Street in Austin, will be hosting an exhibit featuring some of cinema's most famous monsters. Mondo’s Universal Monsters exhibit will run from January 19 through January 27. You can preview some of the art below and let us know what you think in the comments!
“Ever since our original Universal Studios’ Monsters show in 2012, we always knew we’d love to revisit it with a handful of fresh, new posters. We’ve got a bunch of our favorite artists tackling some of the most thrilling films of all time, so this one is kind of a dream come true.” Mitch Putnam, Mondo Creative Director, recently told The Hollywood Reporter.
Here's the lineup of artists contributing work that was inspired by the monsters that rose to prominence through films made in the 1920s through 1950s: Jonathan Burton, Sam Wolfe Connelly, Francesco Francavilla, Ken Garduno, Brandon Holt, Matthew Peak, Phantom City Creative, Eric Powell, Gary Pullin, Greg Ruth, Jessica Seamans, Stan & Vince, Ken Taylor, Matt Ryan Tobin and Bruce White.
