Ron English just sent me these photos of several amazing billboards he installed in Tui, Spain a couple of weeks ago. Ron and Pedro Carvajal were in Spain for the premier of Pedro’s documentary “POPaganda: The Art & Crimes of Ron English”.
Here are the translations:
New Generation New World Order (Kid Guernica)
New World Order (Guernica before the bombing)
Evolution, It’s not for everyone (George Bush)
If you believe, it doesn’t have to be true (Boy on toy plane)
UPDATE: Pedro emailed me a link to SUPERTOUCH’s write-up on these billboards, which includes some additional photos. It appears that SUPERTOUCH is Jamie O’Shea’s blog. I met Jamie over a decade ago through Juxtapoz Magazine and since them I’ve completely lost track of him. It looks like he’s been blogging for a year now. I had no idea.
