Act Two - The animals get riled up about the economic disparity and social injustice, rejecting their world of delusion. Act Three - A very unusual take on revolution. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Ron English has pirated over a thousand billboards over his career, replacing existing advertisements with his own hand-painted subvertisements. His paintings have been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide. English coined the term POPaganda to describe his signature mash-up of high and low cultural touchstones, from superhero mythology to totems of art history, populated with his vast and constantly growing arsenal of original characters. He is Americas Premier Pop Iconoclast. Review "A latter-day American hero, a Robin Hood who does not so much steal from the rich as steal the richs thunder by making their products wicked or idiotic." --The Guardian"Ron English has been called the Robin Hood of Madison Avenue for his seminal work in billboard subvertising and is widely considered to be a founding member of the Culture Jamming movement." --Juxtapoz"With social commentary posing as fine art, he manages to entertain with an intrepid confidence and thoughtfulness that comes across as some kind of wonderful hard-core humanitarianism." --Flaunt Magazine Long Description Ron English tells the story of Delusionville, a world where animals have different social status based on their species. This is Ron Englishs magnum opus, a subversive rock opera, featuring Ronnnie Rabbbit.A surreal cast of characters populates this paradise, including buzzards, pigs, sheep, turtles, ducks, wolves, and the "rabbbits" who are caught in the middle of all the insanity that is Delusionville. Ronnnie, the main rabbbit, is the only animal who tries to accept all contradictory belief systems, which has driven him completely insane. A collection of over 100 images set with lyrics.
