There are few universal truths in life – radio stations play the best music on Fridays, peanut butter goes great with chocolate, and John McTiernan is the greatest living action filmmaker. The man behind "Die Hard," "The Hunt for Red October," "Predator" and "The Thomas Crown Affair" is a master of character and craft, fashioning one artful, high octane blockbuster after another. These are films that are the definition of iconic. And we thought, You know, he would be a pretty cool guy to fashion an art show around. So for the better part of a year, we've been working with our friends at Hero Complex Gallery in Los Angeles to bring you A John McTiernan Art Show, just in time for Christmas (our exact date is pending, so be sure to follow us on social for the details). And what's more -- the master himself, John McTiernan, will be in attendance.
65 artists from all around the world contributed to the show, which will celebrate the totality of the filmmaker's career. And we are so thrilled to share two of our very favorite pieces with you -- one is a "Die Hard" piece by Scott Park, who turns all the action and chaos of that film into something truly adorable. The other is a velvet painting (!) of Arnold Schwarzenegger from "Predator." Both are amazing and are only the tip of the iceberg. Stay tuned for more ...
