GadgetSMALLThis endlessly repeating GIF is dedicated to my younger brother, Jared. It’s revenge for a tribute to the way he used to make us watch Inspector Gadget every afternoon, no matter how many times we’d already seen the episode being aired.

Note: This GIF is made from two limited edition silkscreens created by Dave Perillo. To see more of Perillo’s pop culture pop art, click here.
