Imperial Pic-Nic

Controversy srtikes the San Francisco's ART!ART!ART! art gallery last weekend when George Lucas's and Lego Company's lawyers entered the above mentioned gallery, escorted by police officers, and confiscated the Sean Thorpe's video installation piece "Imperial Pic-Nic". The 15 minute long animated film shows Lego Star Wars characters (Darth Vader and clone troopers, to be more precise) in a peaceful turistic pic-nic trip. "I've been applying to work at Lucas Entertainement for 10 years now, and i sent 234 letters to George Lucas during this time... I never got any answer." says Sean Thorpe in an exclusive phonecall interview for our magazine. The artist is now on the loose but he's wanted by the authorities of several states of USA, on the charge of 1st degree copyright infraction.
