That is the definition of life imitating artwork, solely right here … it is from Larry David‘s world.

Take a look at this defacement job that occurred on a billboard on the nook of Centinela Ave. and Santa Monica Blvd. right here in Los Angeles — the place an commercial for Susie Essman’s Caftan from “Curb Your Enthusiasm” went up someday this previous week in an homage to the present.

If you happen to’re unfamiliar, her Susie character from ‘Curb’ began her personal enterprise and threw up a billboard to promote it — which acquired vandalized on TV with individuals drawing penises round her face … one thing that delighted LD.

Because it seems … HBO commissioned an actual duplicate of this faux TV billboard to go up in actual life as nicely, and to no one’s shock — it was additionally defaced, identical to on ‘CYE.’

If you happen to’re questioning who’s accountable for the tag job … we now have a solution. There’s an activist artwork collective known as INDECLINE — and so they say they’re those who pulled this off. We’re instructed this went down early Friday morning … and so they even filmed themselves doing it.

The explanation … they are saying they have been simply fulfilling a want from none aside from ‘Curb’ star Jeff Garlin himself … who responded to somebody this week after the billboard went up and wrote, “Somebody ought to put a d*** up there. Possibly two.” Welp, that is precisely what INDECLINE did.

The collective tells TMZ, they offer Larry loads of credit score for forming their humorousness and sensibility … in order that they really feel they have been paying homage to him by finishing up this stunt.

They add, “Just a few nights in the past, we watched in awe as considered one of our favourite pastimes, ‘billboard liberation, was included into the newest episode. We acquired a flood of texts and DMs in regards to the existence of the billboard in Los Angeles and even noticed that Jeff Garland was on Instagram calling for it to be altered.”

INDECLINE goes on … “So, as a thanks to Larry David, for his contribution to the sphere of artwork imitating life, we provide you with our contribution to the observe of life imitating artwork.”

The apparent query is … are cops gonna look into this? We’re instructed by legislation enforcement sources that, at this level, no one has known as in simply but to report a criminal offense — so so far as they’re involved … there’s not a lot to do about this for now.

BTW, these are the identical guys that did the bare Trump statue years in the past … so there you go. They’re identified for stuff like this — and so they did not disappoint right here both.

Cue ‘Frolic’!
