Y2K;Millennium Celebration 2000

"Y2K;Millennium Celebration" is a humorous and satirical illustration by Jack Davis, created in 2000. It depicts a chaotic scene of people and creatures celebrating the new millennium, with a monster-like figure at the top blowing a plume of smoke that obscures the year 2000. The image, executed in watercolor, captures the anxieties and anxieties surrounding the Y2K bug and the arrival of the new millennium. This cartoonish style was characteristic of Davis' work, who was known for his contributions to Mad Magazine and other publications. The artwork provides a visual representation of a pivotal moment in history, viewed through the lens of Davis's signature humor.
