Movie Reviews

Sticking it to the Man

Enrique Martinez | 11/13/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I was apathetic about Ron English's artwork before I saw this movie. And I didn't know very much about his billboard art. I appreciated the technical skill and surface appeal of the paintings but I didn't get the message, in fact I thought they were a little frivolous. Seeing the movie gave me a greater respect and appreciation for his work and his message. Now I am such a believer in his work that I recommend this movie to people. It does drag a little towards the end when the subject turns to his "fine art" career. The street/billboard art is just more exciting as a doc subject and also as art, in some ways. Still this is an excellent introduction to the world of this great artist. And it's also good to use in an art class (of "mature" students) as an example of political/activist and lowbrow/pop/popsurrealism etc."
