Version 3.0 of the wildly popular I Am 8-Bit opens this Tuesday (4.17) from 7 to 11 PM @ Gallery 1988. Curated by Jon Gibson and Gallery 1988, the third installment of the annual art tribute to the classic 8-bit era of video games is set to impress. We took an unscheduled behind-the-scenes tour of 1988 during the install and without a doubt this is the best one yet. Until Tuesday, here’s a preview featuring pieces by Cameron Tiede, Luke Chueh, and Elizabeth Ito. In case you’re wondering, Cameron’s piece has painted cut-out wood characters mounted against a pained backdrop — stunning. Oh, and while we can’t show it… Craola’s piece is out of this world.

No Jon! Put down that hammer!
Loving Luke’s joust, would make an awesome figure! Please, please please Luke, if you read this, make that toy!
That was a great show! Where were you Jack? I missed seeing you. But I did get a lot of great snapshots!
