While strolling through group shows on the Lower East Side the other day, we came across the latest contribution to the genre of celebutard portraiture: Tom Sanford’s double portrait of the Beckhams. The artist seems to have aged the soccer star by at least a decade and morphed the missus into a tarted-up Teri Hatcher, but we do appreciate the attention he’s lavished on the armorlike sheen of her fake tan. —Karen Rosenberg
