Adam West To Sell His Batman Villain-Themed Paintings

Adam West, who portrayed Batman in the 1960s television series, is selling paintings he created of the classic villains from the show.

ADAM WEST TO SELL BATMAN THEMED PAINTINGS

The paintings will sell at a gallery in Ketchum, Idaho, where West now resides. “Criminals on Canvas,” as the exhibit was so named, opened today at the Gilman Contemporary art gallery. West is scheduled to attend.

The 88-year-old actor has said that he wishes his paintings to capture the humor and zaniness as well as the depth of the Batman villains. West brought the comic book character to life and to the public consciousness as he battled the likes of Catwoman, the Joker, the Riddler and the Penguin.

#Reason #5 Adam West is the best Batman: he has the best villains. Speaking of the Mad Hatter, Adam west goes up against the greatest gallery of rogues the Riddler is pitch perfect, the Penguin is not a freak and there are three amazing Catwomen. #catwoman #adamwest #criminalsoncanvas Dec 20-23 at Gilman Contemporary

In anticipation of our exhibition of Adam West’s paintings we found the top 10 reasons why Adam West is the best Batman: #10 HE WOULD NOT FIGHT SUPERMAN Batman and Superman are bros. Adam West’s Batman would not try and sniff out Superman. He would shake his hand and probably realize that Superman is stronger (although Batman did fight the Green Hornet). #adamwest #batman #celebrityart #topten
