Living in Delusionville

The documentary Living in Delusionville explores the impact of corporate messaging through art and its necessary antidote: noncommercial thought-provoking public art. Through the lens of Ron English, raised on consumerist iconography, whose visual language became the twisted and truthful distillation of pop detritus, the film offers an engaging roadmap to critical thinking, guided by the jolt and delight of art in the street. Artist Ron English plays by his own rules, creating dynamic art across the world which demands dialog and provokes action. From humble Midwestern beginnings, processing the commercial imagery of pop culture into a darker, funnier universe he calls Delusionville, English has pranked and pummeled his way into prominence, influencing generations of artists and laying the groundwork for the explosion of Street Art.
