If you love POPaganda: The Art and Subversion of Ron English then you don't want to miss the opportunity to see a feature length version screening in New York! POPaganda: The Art and Crimes of Ron English is scheduled for Sunday, August 22 at 8 pm at the If you love Two Boots Pioneer Theater: 155 East 3rd Street (at Ave. A) New York, NY 10009 (212) 254-3300 �Hilarious and engaging� James Israel, Festival Circuit � AIVF �Ron's art is an antidote to the poison in our culture� Lilly Hatch, NY Magazine SYNOPSIS: �POPAGANDA: THE ART & CRIMES OF RON ENGLISH� is an 82-minute documentary about the culture jamming and billboard liberation antics of Ron English: billboard bandit, post-pop pundit, post-punk prankster, counter-cultural cartoonist, culture-jammer. A modern Robin Hood of Madison Avenue, Ron paints, perverts, infiltrates, reinvents and satirizes modern culture and its popular visual iconography on canvas, in songs, and directly on hundreds of pirated billboards. Shot entirely guerilla, this film gives the viewer an intimate look into the life of an artist who has been at the forefront of movements in photography, painting, activist art, and underground music. This irreverent and provocative documentary offers up an alternative universe where nothing is sacred, everything is subverted, and there's always room for a little good-natured fun.Published on July 25, 2004
