Ron English is a contemporary pop artist who explores popular brand imagery and advertising. Over the last twenty years, he has pirated over one thousand billboards replacing existing advertisements with his own hand-painted “subvertisements.”
His pirated billboards, replace existing campaigns with his own art that very often uses the tactics of advertising to attack the products themselves in order to encourage free thought.
Ron English has also painted several album covers including The Dandy Warhols album cover “Welcome to the Monkey House”. Some of his paintings were also used in Morgan Spurlock’s documentary Super Size Me.
You can also see his work in Absoluts charity campaigns, in prominent museums and galleries such as the Museum of Contemporary Art in Paris and the Whitney Museum in New York or in Luciano Pavarottias home.
