Illustrated Event: Nic Rad’s ‘Celebritist Manifesto’ On James Franco

Sunday night we attended Nic Rad‘s James Franco-themed art show in New York. Earlier this month we published an interview with Nic wherein he waxed comi-poetic about his obsession his and our favorite Renaissance boy, and we’ve been excited about the show ever since. And it certainly didn’t disappoint! The event, which included paintings and the centerpiece performance of Nic’s Celebritist Manifesto: A Stirring Defense of James Franco as the Greatest Artist of This Generation if Not All Time, was received by a delighted audience. Take a look at our illustrated tour of the night.
