Justin Timberlake's arrest for driving while intoxicated has inspired a pop art at the gallery in the Hamptons, where he was taken into custody by police officers.

AceShowbiz - Justin Timberlake's recent DUI arrest may have caused a stir online, but it has also led to a unique form of artistic expression, turning a moment of public scrutiny into a celebrated work of art.

In a rather unexpected turn of events, the singer's mugshot, taken following his arrest for driving while intoxicated in Sag Harbor, NY, has been transformed into an art piece titled "Tuesday Night Out Featuring Justin Timberlake."

Created by artist Godfrey Lohman, the artwork is on display at the Romany Kramoris Gallery in the same village where the arrest took place. The piece has garnered significant attention and interest from the public.

Gallery owner Romany Kramoris shared her enthusiasm with Page Six, recalling her reaction to the piece for the first time, "My reaction was, 'Oh my God! That's great! It's just great! " She has noted that the artwork has drawn "nonstop lines" of onlookers keen to capture it in their photos.

Gallery employee Leslie Raff also highlighted the contemporary appeal of the mugshot art, asserting that it is "our most contemporary piece! It's au courant." The gallery has sold several copies of the piece, each priced at $520, adding an interesting layer to the narrative of Timberlake's arrest.

Timberlake's ill-fated night began when he allegedly failed to stop at an intersection's posted stop sign, subsequently attracting the attention of the Sag Harbor Police Department. The report described his condition as having "bloodshot and glassy" eyes with a strong odor of alcohol, and displaying "slowed speech" and "unsteady" footing.

After refusing a breathalyzer test multiple times, Timberlake was processed and later released on his own recognizance, facing a single misdemeanor charge of DWI, along with citations for running a stop sign and not maintaining his travel lane.

During his ongoing North American and international tour for his latest album, "Everything I Thought It Was", Timberlake has addressed his legal issues in a light-hearted manner with fans. At a concert in Chicago, he openly acknowledged the difficult week and expressed gratitude for the fans' unwavering support. He even joked during a performance in Boston, asking if anyone was driving before playfully saying, "no I'm just kidding."

Despite the serious nature of the charges, Timberlake's response and the transformation of his mugshot into a pop art phenomenon convey a deeper message about resilience and finding humor in trying times. The convergence of art, celebrity culture, and public controversy has given rise to a piece that is not only reflective of Timberlake's recent troubles but also serves as a cultural touchstone in the ever-evolving narrative of his career.
