The Empire has invaded Pittsburgh!  No\u2026 really.  We\u2019re excited to report that The Vader Project<\/a>, the too-cool-for-school art project featuring 100 artist customs of  full-size replicas of the Dark Lord of the Sith\u2019s helmet<\/strong>, is now showing @ the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh<\/a>.  The exhibit officially opens this Saturday, February 28th (12-4)<\/strong> with a make-your-own-vader mask event.  Come out dressed up as your favorite character. <\/p>\n

Curated by Dov Kelemer and Sarah Jo Marks of DKE Toys<\/strong>, the Vader Project features the work of some of today\u2019s most exciting artists including Gary Baseman<\/a>, Tim Biskup<\/a>, Tristan Eaton<\/a>, Amanda Visell<\/a>, Michelle Valigura<\/a>, tokidoki<\/a>, Bounty Hunter<\/a>, Frank Kozik<\/strong>, Joe Hahn<\/strong> and more.  Thanks to DKE Toys, we have pics of the installation at the Warhol — pretty amazing to see the custom Vader helmets along side original Warhol paintings worth millions.  <\/p>\n

If you’re in Pittsburgh, come out for the opening this Saturday.  The exhibit runs through May 3rd. <\/p>\n
