But where did this painting come from?

The space was really fun really gigantic walls, so much wall space, Albrecht says of the apartment.

And, of course, being in our mid-20s, we had a very small budget.

So, you know, giant inexpensive canvas, painted it black, one can of white spray paint.

And it was hilarious to then see the subsequent episodes.

While the painting was heavily featured, much of their other work that day ended up out of frame.

In fact, Albrecht says the cameras werent really a factor they considered when designing the space.

The only mention of the show in terms of our brainstorming was clearance purposes for artwork.

The Bubba art was totally original, totally fast, easy, budget friendly, and now iconic.

Do they get joint custody?

Was it donated to MoMA?

Will someone adapt it into a musical a laSunday in the Park With George?

(And, if so, which former Newsie will play Tom Schwartz?)

Recovery efforts unfortunately werent fruitful.

So maybe either someone took it or someone threw it in the dumpster, but its gone.

It literally comes up almost every time I see him, Maloney says of Cohens desire for the painting.

I was just there last week and it definitely got brought up again.

But what makes the piece so iconic?

Maybe we send this message out there, Maloney says.

If you have the Bubba painting whats the reward?

What do you want for it?
