Since its release in theaters in February 2017, ‘Get Out’ has been nominated for four Academy Awards, and inspired audiences and artists worldwide. A compilation video has also been released that showcases the artwork inspired by the movie. The video, which features the hashtag #GetOutOneYearLater, encourages audiences to share their artwork, experiences and discussions that were influenced by the movie. Universal Pictures has also launched an official website that features a gallery of the paintings from artists who have been inspired by the drama.
“When Jordan approached us about a way to thank fans one year after the release of ‘Get Out,; we thought a Presidents’ Day screening during Black History Month would be a wonderful way to commemorate the film’s impact,” said Jim Orr, President, Distribution, Universal Pictures. “The success of his stunning vision would not have been possible without the audience’s passion for both ‘Get Out’s groundbreaking storytelling and its deft use of art as society’s mirror.”
