'Twilight' stars featured in London 'Most Wanted' exhibit



On Thursday, an art exhibit in London, England opened up at the White Cube Hoxton Square called "Most Wanted."

The exhibit is a series of paintings by Richard Phillips, who told The New York Times his series was inspired by a day on the set of Gossip Girl (one of his paintings was used on the show).
"I was hanging out on set, and it was incredible how these young actors were shaping news,” said Phillips, who is considered something of a modern-day “history painter.” “They would take something from Page Six that was written about the show and then read it into the script. It was what the new shape of pop art can be– this reflexive mirror of culture."


Three Twilight stars are among the chosen subjects for this gallery, including Robert Pattinson ("Edward Cullen" in the Twilight series), Kristen Stewart ("Kristen Stewart"), and Dakota Fanning ("Jane").

Photos of the gallery and the opening are attached in the slideshow. Note that Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine (which contributed the song "Heavy in Your Arms" to The Twilight Saga: Eclipse's soundtrack) was present for the opening.

"Most Wanted" will remain on exhibit at White Cube until March 5th.
