Simpsons Artworks

You've likely heard of them, the Simpsons! As one of the most recognizable families in the world, the TV show is now the longest-running series in TV history. In the 1980s, TV channels were excessively airing family sitcoms about tired family drama and lessons of morality. With limited networks, the same repetitive theme was being replayed in various TV shows over and over again. With this tiresome, overdone theme, The Simpsons was born; an alternative to the mainstream about a dysfunctional family. With its success, the series has inspired many artists and its characters have become central in many pop art, and street artworks. Artists like Gaby Joséphine and David Rapaport are among those who have included the iconic family in their works. The Simpsons are cynical, dramatic, and sometimes-unorthodox, making the visible flaws within the narrative more relatable to the audience. For this reason, The Simpsons have become a cultural phenomenon.
