Jason Lee Offers Reward For Stolen Dennis Hopper Photo

Jason Lee is one of the funniest guys in Hollywood, but there’s one thing the actor doesn’t joke around about: his stuff.

The ‘My Name is Earl’ star is hopping mad after a sticky-fingered art enthusiast stole a one-of-a-kind photo of late actor Dennis Hopper from a Highland Park gallery show hosted by artist collective THIS Los Angeles.

According to People, the 8 by 10, black-and-white Polaroid still of Hopper was simply lifted off the gallery wall following Saturday’s show, a crime that has left Lee “devastated” and offering a $25,000 reward for the photo’s return.

Lee, whose passion for art inspired him to found the Jason Lee Foundation For the Arts in 2001, has been deeply involved in the arts community since founding skateboard company and art collective Stereo Sound in 1992.

The actor told Fugue Magazine of his vision, “For us, it’s about the art shows, and collaborations with other artists. We’re legitimizing that side of [skateboarding], instead of just the sport. It’s about the creativity that comes out of it, and how you can apply that to other areas in life.”

Anyone with information about the stolen photo of Hopper can contact THIS Los Angeles at this@thislosangeles.com or (323) 747-5301.
