More than 30 Customized 10 " D.I.Y. Bart Simpson Qees by Artists and
Designers from across the globe in celebration of THE SIMPSONS arrive in Itlay for the next stop of the BART QEE Worldwide Tour .
Luisa Via Roma hosts the September Euope stop of the D.I.Y. Qee Project: BART tour presented by TOY2R and Diamond Comics. TOY2R, Diamond Comics and Luisa Via Roma have assembled a virtual "who's who" list of today's hottest pop culture artists, designers and illustrators from around the world. Each original figure has been painted, sculpted, and customized to illustrate each artist's own unique re-interpretation of
the iconic character, Bart Simpson, using as a blank canvas the 10" D.I.Y. Bart Simpson Blank Platform Qee Figure. Many of these artists have either grown up watching THE SIMPSONS or were inspired by its creativity, humor or sardonic look at life. To bring these original creations to the fans, TOY2R and Diamond Comics launched this worldwide art gallery tour stopping at respected galleries and art boutiques across the globe.
The show will then be open to the public on September 10th and 30th
As a bonus, there will be an exclusive 3" Bart Simpson Qee - Treeman Black Edition - available for purchase only during the exhibit. This figure will not be available anywhere else in the Italy. Also, there will be a limited
