Ron English describes his vivid, irreverent approach to pop art aesthetics as “Popaganda.” Throughout his drawings, paintings, and murals, the artist incorporates iconography derived from superhero comics, art history, advertising, and politics. The results are surreal reflections on high and low culture across the centuries.
English first came to artmaking on the street; in the 1980s, he participated in culture jamming efforts (altering billboards) alongside the Billboard Liberation Front. He later earned his MFA from the University of Texas. English has exhibited in London, Los Angeles, and New York, among other cities. In addition to his fine art and mural practices, English has produced album art for musicians including the Dandy Warhols and Slash, art for the documentary Super Size Me, and a number of designer toys.
