About Popaganda pop-up:
A pop-up shop featuring toys, prints, t-shirts, books and some rare finds by Ron English.

Born in the 1960’s in the United States, Ron English is considerably one of the most prolific and recognizable living artists. Accredited with the transition of graffiti art from a subcultural form of popular expression to the decorative, narrative murals that are seen today, he is the godfather of street art. He coined the term “POPaganda” to describe his trademark fusion of high and low imagery, synthesizing images of superheroes and comic strips with art history iconography in his prolific and ubiquitous paintings, billboards, and sculptures. English has created a vast roster of characters, including MC Supersized, his obese fast-food mascot that was featured in the documentary Supersize Me, and Abraham Obama, a mash-up of America’s 16th and 44th Presidents. He is best known for combining expert draftsmanship with a cynical, humorous critique of American culture.
