Made by Monsters x Ron English Popaganda Series
After 6 months of production development by Garageworks Industries, Made by Monsters and Ron English are ready to expose the POPAGANDA vinyl toy series ... although no official visuals of the toy has been released thus far.
Consider what toys Mr.English has had made all this while: from original sculpts for Dark Horse, Kidrobot, StrangeCo and Gums Production, to Dunnys and BE@RBRICK platform toys, and even an art-to-sculpt United States President ... and a collaboration with the makers of counter-mainstream-culture icons as Jim Philips' Screaming Hands and FrankenPink = tis going to be an interesting series to look out for, IMHO.
"Ron English known as the new generation "Andy Warhol", he is a contemporary pop artist who explores popular brand imagery and advertising. One aspect of his work involves 'liberating' commercial billboards with his own messages. Frequent targets of his work include Joe Camel, McDonalds, Mickey Mouse, and many iconic imagery or characters. English also references Picasso's Guernica. He has created dozens of versions, transforming the original Spanish civilian characters into Disney characters, Peanuts characters, soccer players, schoolchildren, and many others. He also painted the world's largest version of Guernica at the Station Museum in Houston. It is one foot longer and one foot wider than Picasso's original and features schoolchildren playacting the violent scene of the original."
