Richard Phillips portrait of Kristen Stewart

























DEJA VIEW

Richard Phillips' new art show looks a lot like a NYLON cover...

You've probably crashed into the artist Richard Phillips without even knowing it - his stylized portraits of models, starlets, and moody blonde children have appeared in museums, M.A.C Cosmetics stores, and also on TV - there's a Phillips' painting hanging in Serena and Eric's Gossip Girl penthouse.

For his latest exhibit, Most Wanted, Phillips selects some "New Hollywood" icons - Dakota, Chase, Zac - and makes them modern deities, via neon-colored halos and some very hallowed canvas.

All the pieces are electric and exciting, but one stopped us dead in our tracks. It's the image of Kristen Stewart, giving us an aloof stare that's so familiar, we actually asked out loud, "Wait... is this piece based on our cover shot?"

That would be amazing... but it also seems possible. We blew up Kristen's face on the cover and flipped it horizontally in the gallery below. Check it out and let us know if we're being giddy, or if our March 2009 photographs were a model for this new work of art.

If you want to see it yourself, head to London: Phillips' show, which includes the Kristen painting, premieres on January 28 at the White Cube Gallery.

Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive first look at The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1. The shot, which is only available in Entertainment Weekly's print edition, features Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) as husband and wife…on their wedding night. “It’s one of the most anticipated scenes,” Breaking Dawn director Bill Condon tells EW. “I spent a tremendous amount of time thinking about it. The anticipation is part of it and you want to play with what people expect and maybe subvert it a little and surprise them.”For more information about Breaking Dawn (in theaters Nov. 18), check out this week’s issue of Entertainment Weekly.
