The Pink Panther is not happy with Jeff Koons and that clearly shows in Laurina Paperina’s hilarious artwork.
Laurina Paperina’s ‘How To Kill The Artists’ is a humorous take on pop-cultural/artistic characters committing acts of violence. Most images depict popular characters taking revenge their artists. It’s like seeing a celebrity getting sick of stardom (only homicide seems to be the drug of choice). From a rat strangling Banksy to Takashi Murakami getting spanked, these guys are mad at the status they’ve gotten and want their life back.
