Books We Love :: Poster Boy -The War of Art
The best part of embarking on a web series about art is meeting new artists. About a year ago I came across an article in New York Magazine about a young crazy razor blade swinging street artist. His name was Poster Boy. Luckily for me the article included his Flickr page and away I went clicking. After seeing a pretty impressive body of work all created out of subway adverts, I decided to reach out.
exhibits we love :: ron english “immortal underground”
The work of Ron English is subversive, satirical “popaganda” in all its forms. Whether it’s his appropriation of billboards, his paintings, graphics, collage or songs, he always comes correct. We recently saw a documentary on his life & work, “POPaganda,” a term he coined to describe his art. Check out a long trailer below and don’t miss his current solo exhibit “Immortal Underground” at the Opera Gallery in Soho until Dec 2, 2009.
