Nerdy art fans… assemble!

If you live in or around the Los Angeles area and you care about pop culture or art galleries (or both), you’ve probably hear of Gallery 1988. The art gallery has announced that it’s going to be launching an “Avengers”-themed show to tie in with the Marvel film’s opening weekend. It will feature the work of artists like Dave Perillo, Rhys Cooper, Scott Campbell and Kiersten Essenpreis, and will run from May 3 to 6.

There will be an opening night reception on May 3 from 7pm to 10pm, and then the gallery will be open from Friday to Sunday during normal business hours. The original art work sells fast, so if you’re more interested in buying than browsing and have a couple hundred bucks to spare, I’d recommend getting there opening night.

If you’re free this coming weekend and are a fan of “The Avengers,” I’d highly suggest you check this out. Even if you’re just interested in seeing what the big deal is, it’s definitely worth stopping by. The last Gallery 1988 show I attended was the “Please Post Bills” Bill Murray tribute that they held back in November, and it was an absolute blast. (I even picked up this while I was there.) Though some of the art might be available online in the store at a later date, it’s always a treat to stop by the Gallery 1988 location on Melrose.

Directed by Joss Whedon, “The Avengers” stars Robert Downey Jr., Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Samuel L. Jackson, Tom Hiddleston, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner and Cobie Smulders. It’s due in theaters on May 4.

The Best Of The Last

Portlandia Goes Out With A Bang

Posted by on

The end is near. In mere days Portlandia wraps up its final season, and oh what a season it’s been. Lucky for you, you can watch the entire season right now right here and on the IFC app, including this free episode courtesy of Subaru.

But now, let’s take a moment to look back at some of the new classics Fred and Carrie have so thoughtfully bestowed upon us. (We’ll be looking back through tear-blurred eyes, but you do you.)

Couples Dinner

It’s not that being single sucks, it’s that you suck if you’re single.

Cancel it!

A sketch for anyone who has cancelled more appointments than they’ve kept. Which is everyone.

Forgotten America

This one’s a “Serial” killer…everything both right and wrong about true crime podcasts.

Wedding Planners

The only bad wedding is a boring wedding.

Disaster Hut

It’s only the end of the world if your doomsday kit doesn’t include rosé.

Your Portlandia Personality Test

The New Portlandia Webseries Is Going Your Way

Posted by on

Carrie and Fred understand that although we have so much in common, we’re each so beautifully unique and different. To help us navigate those differences, Portlandia has found an easy and honest way to embrace our special selves in the form of a progressive new traffic system: a specific lane for every kind of driver. It’s all in honor of the show’s 8th and final season, and it’s all presented by Subaru.

Ready to find out who you really are? Match your personality to a lane and hop on the expressway to self-understanding.

Lane 10: Trucks Piled With Junk

Your junk is falling out of your trunk. Shake a tail light, people — this lane is for you.

Lane 33: Twins

You’re like a Gemini, but waaaay more pedestrian. Maybe you and a friend just wear the same outfits a lot. Who cares, it’s just twinning enough to make you feel special.

Lane 27: Broken Windows

Bad luck follows you around and everyone knows it. Your proverbial seat is always damp from proverbial rain. Is this the universe telling you to swallow your pride? Yes.

Lane 69: Filthy Cars

You’re all about convenience. Getting your car washed while you drive is a no-brainer.

Lane 43: Newly Divorced Singles

It’s been a while since you’ve driven alone, and you don’t know the rules of the road anymore. What’s too fast? What’s too slow? Are you sending the right signals? Don’t worry, the breakdown lane is nearby if you need it.

Still can’t find a lane to match your personality? Check out all the videos here. And see the final season of Portlandia this spring on IFC.
