With Marvel’s The Avengers opening this weekend, Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles is putting on an Avengers themed art show that’s filled with some really cool stuff. Featuring original art, posters and prints that are all for sale, if you’re in the L.A. area, it’s definitely worth checking out. However, for everyone that won’t have a chance to stop by, I attended a preview tonight and took a ton of pics. I even snapped Joss Whedon and Clark Gregg in front of some of the art. Hit the jump for the pics and more info.

If you live in Los Angeles and are a fan of comic book characters and/or art, you’re in luck. Disney announced today that Gallery1988 in Hollywood will be playing host to a bevy of artwork inspired by The Avengers. The art show will run through the film’s opening weekend, May 3rd through May 6th, so you can partake in more The Avengers goodness before and after you catch the flick. Disney sent over a couple of sample prints that will be on display, and my jealousy-meter raised up quite a few ticks after having a peek at what Gallery1988 will have to offer.
Hit the jump to check out the images and for more information on the art show. The event will feature the work of artists such as Dave Perillo, Rhys Cooper, Scott Campbell, Luke Chueh, Ken Garduno, Kiersten Essenpreis and NC Winters, as well as others. The Avengers opens in 3D on May 4th.

Tonight, Texas based Mondotees was at Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles for one night only. They were there to release two limited posters (Gremlins and Alien) and to sell off a few posters that were previously sold out. Also, they had Kevin Tong creating customized hand-drawn movie prints and Harry Diaz live screen-printing custom movie merchandise. If you’ve never seen the awesome posters and t-shirts that Mondotees sells, I really suggest checking out the website. Especially if you love movies.
While tonight’s show started at 7pm, I managed to get in a bit early to photograph what was on display. If you didn’t get a chance to go and were curious what they had, hit the jump for a ton of photos.
