When it comes to depicting some of the world’s biggest stars, things can get ugly. In a new exhibit called “Remember My Name,” which opened last week at London’s massive 6,000 square foot Sartorial Contemporary Art Gallery, a diverse group of artists painted well-known celebrities in some decidedly unusual ways.

Artists like Sarah Doyle, Jasper Joffe, Mikey Georgeson and Cathy Lomax profiled celebrity culture at it’s worst for the show. Images of everyone from Angelina Jolie to Michael Jackson get subverted, while artist Matt Humphrey immortalizes Kurt Cobain by re-imagining his suicide gun. See more of “Remember My Name,” which runs through November 11th, below…
