    Ron English Star Skull Kickstarter Giclee Print by Ron English

    Star Skull- Kickstarter Limited Edition Giclee Print on Fine Art Paper by Ron English counter-culture street artist art. 2015 Signed & Numbered Limited Kickstarter Bonus Exclusive Edition of 50 Artwork Size 16x16 Ron English's Artistic Impact The "Star Skull" giclee print by Ron English presents a captivating fusion of street pop art and graffiti artwork, emblematic of the counter-culture ethos the artist is renowned for. As a Kickstarter limited edition release in 2015, this piece showcases English's signature blend of high-concept visual art with subversive overtones rendered on fine art paper. Ron English is a prolific and quintessential figure in contemporary art, mainly known for his role in the subversive street art movement. His works often incorporate a mash-up of high and low cultural touchstones, ranging from superhero mythology to totems of art history, recontextualized in a modern narrative. English's "Star Skull" is no exception; the artwork is a complex visual statement that dives deep into the themes of mortality and the omnipresence of pop culture. The skull, an enduring symbol in art history, is transformed through English's lens into a vibrant, iridescent object that captures the gaze with its haunting beauty. The star emblazoned across the skull's cranium starkly contrasts the naturalistic rendering of the bone structure. This juxtaposition speaks to the artist's fascination with American iconography and the often superficial allure of fame and materialism. Significance in Street Art and Pop Art This limited edition print, sized at 16x16 inches, is particularly significant as it was offered as a Kickstarter bonus exclusive, reflecting the changing landscape of how art is funded and consumed. The exclusivity of the edition, limited to only 50 signed and numbered prints, increases its collectibility and underlines the personalized connection Ron English fosters with his audience. "Star Skull" embodies the essence of street pop art in its accessibility and the DIY ethos of graffiti art culture. The medium of giclee print, known for its ability to faithfully reproduce the color and detail of original artworks, is ideally suited to English's vibrant palette and meticulous detail. Collectors of English's work appreciate the aesthetic and thematic richness of his art and the value of owning a piece that is part of a limited run, signifying its rarity and the artist's direct touch. The Collectible Nature of "Star Skull" The piece's presence in the art market as a Kickstarter exclusive highlights the changing dynamics of art patronage, with more direct artist-audience relationships and alternative platforms for art distribution. English's decision to release "Star Skull" through Kickstarter signifies his embrace of contemporary methods for engaging with the art community, democratizing the art acquisition process. In the context of modern art, "Star Skull" stands as a testament to the enduring relevance of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It encapsulates the immediacy and confrontation found in street art with the conceptual depth and polished finish that fine art printmaking affords. As such, it is a visually striking piece and a significant artifact of contemporary art history, marking the intersection of traditional art forms with the insurgent spirit of street art. In summary, Ron English's "Star Skull" Kickstarter limited edition giclee print is a vivid example of the potent dialogue between street pop art and graffiti artwork and the counter-culture narrative that English is celebrated for. Through this piece, English continues to challenge viewers with his blend of the familiar and the extraordinary, cementing his role as a pivotal figure in the narrative of contemporary art.

PP Printers Proof 2020 Signed & Marked PP Limited Edition Artwork Size 12x12 Dissecting "Stormtrooper Grin" by Ron English "Stormtrooper Grin" is a provocative work by Ron English, a revered name in modern pop art, street art, and graffiti art. This Printer's Proof (PP) limited edition archival pigment print from 2020, signed and marked in English, is a testament to his signature fusion of high art and street culture. Presented on 290gsm Moab Fine Art Paper, this print, measuring 12x12 inches, captures the essence of English's impactful aesthetic. Known for his use of color and distortion, English transforms familiar imagery from popular culture into something new, often with a subversive twist. Ron English's Vision in Pop Art and Street Culture English's "Stormtrooper Grin" reimagines the iconic helmet of the Stormtrooper from the Star Wars franchise, overlaying it with a human skull. This juxtaposition is emblematic of English's style, often combining a bright, almost cartoonish palette with darker themes. His work is recognized for its critical commentary on consumerism, corporate strategies, and idolizing popular culture icons. By placing a skeletal grin within the context of a symbol associated with conformity and the loss of individuality, English invites viewers to reflect on the nature of identity and mortality within the seemingly benign trappings of entertainment. Impact of Ron English's Work on Street Pop Art Ron English is credited with the proliferation of "culture jamming," a practice where familiar visual symbols are altered to challenge the status quo. His "Stormtrooper Grin" directly reflects this, taking a ubiquitous symbol from science fiction and turning it into a conversation piece that questions the narratives we consume and the ideologies they perpetuate. The print embodies the transformative potential of street pop art and graffiti artwork, where the lines between commercial and countercultural are blurred, creating a space for dialogue and dissent. The meticulous craftsmanship in "Stormtrooper Grin" is evident in the precision of the archival pigment print, a method chosen for its fidelity to the artist's original vision. This technique allows for a wide range of vibrant colors and deep blacks, ensuring that the work is a piece of street pop art and a fine art collectible. English's choice of fine art paper and archival pigments serves to solidify the permanence of a piece that, in another context, might have been a temporary fixture on a city wall. Through "Stormtrooper Grin," Ron English continues to challenge perceptions, using his art to provoke thought and encourage a deeper examination of the symbols that permeate our culture. His ability to bring street art sensibilities into the realm of fine art printmaking has established him as a pivotal figure in the street pop art movement. Like much of English's oeuvre, this artwork serves as a stark reminder of the power of visual language in articulating, critiquing, and redefining the narratives fed to society by mass media and entertainment conglomerates.

  • Stormtrooper Messiah Archival Print by Ron English

    Ron English Stormtrooper Messiah Archival Print by Ron English

    Stormtrooper Messiah Limited Edition Archival Pigment Fine Art Prints on Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper by Graffiti Street Art and Pop Culture Artist Ron English. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 100 Archival Pigment Print in Colors on Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper Artwork Size 17x22 The "Stormtrooper Messiah" is a limited edition work of art by the critically acclaimed artist Ron English, known for his provocative blend of street art and pop culture iconography. This particular piece is one of a series of 100 archival pigment prints, each signed and numbered to assure its collectability and authenticity. The artwork measures 17x22 inches and is rendered on Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper, a choice that denotes high quality and ensures the longevity and vibrancy of the colors used in the print. This piece by English is a powerful commentary on the intersections of ideology, iconography, and the indoctrination mechanisms within our society. It reimagines a standard stormtrooper - a symbol of the faceless enforcer from the "Star Wars" franchise - in the garb of a religious icon, precisely resembling the Messiah. This fusion of imagery from distant corners of culture spotlights the often unexamined devotion we have to certain facets of pop culture, paralleling religious fervor. English’s choice of a stormtrooper, an emblem of collective identity and unyielding authority, enveloped in the trappings of a spiritual figure, questions the role of such figures and the institutions behind them in shaping beliefs and behaviors. The artist employs luminous and contrasting colors to breathe a sense of reverence into the figure, an approach that reflects the aura often associated with religious artworks. The flowing robes in vivid hues give the subject a sense of motion and ethereal presence, intensifying the impact of the visual juxtaposition. The "Stormtrooper Messiah" is more than a piece of fine art; it's a visual discourse that challenges the viewers to reflect on the narratives and symbols that influence their understanding of power, culture, and spirituality. Ron English, through his distinctive merger of street art's grit and pop art's fascination with the mainstream, has created an arresting image that continues to spark conversations in the art community and beyond.

    Temper Tot Tramples Guernica Silkscreen by Ron English Hand-Pulled 4-Color Screen on 320gsm Coventry Rag Paper Mural Pop Street Art Artwork. 2021 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 199 Artwork Size 43x25 "Temper Tot Tramples Guernica" is an evocative piece by Ron English, a seminal figure in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork. English, known for his masterful blending of high and low cultural touchstones, presents a 2021 silkscreen juxtaposing his iconic Temper Tot character against the backdrop of Picasso's historic mural "Guernica." This work is part of a limited edition series, meticulously hand-pulled on 320gsm Coventry Rag Paper, known for its exceptional quality and durability. The artwork is substantial, with an image measuring 19 by 38 inches and paper size extending to 25 by 43 inches, allowing the visual drama and detail to unfold powerfully before the viewer. English's work is part of a limited run of 199 pieces, along with artist proofs and foundation proofs, each signed and numbered in pencil by the artist. This specificity in documentation provides collectors with a guarantee of the artwork's authenticity and exclusivity. Ron English's artwork is recognized for critically engaging with cultural narratives and iconic figures. In "Temper Tot Tramples Guernica," English superimposes his superhero-like toddler over Picasso's black-and-white portrayal of the tragedies of war, thereby infusing the somber historical narrative with a contemporary and ironic twist. The Temper Tot, with his exaggerated musculature and childlike impulsivity, becomes a symbol of unchecked power and emotional rawness, a stark contrast to the solemnity of Picasso's anti-war masterpiece. The choice of the Temper Tot, one of English's most famous characters, known for embodying the artist's critique of American consumerism and corporatization, presents a compelling dialogue between past and present political discourse. This dialogue is further emphasized by the vibrancy of the silkscreen technique, a hallmark of English's practice, which brings the historical into the immediate and visceral realm of street art. "Temper Tot Tramples Guernica" was printed by the renowned Gary Lichtenstein Editions and distributed by WCC Editions, ensuring the highest level of craftsmanship in producing this print. The paper's hand-deckled edges contribute to the unique character of each piece, as they echo the textured, often imperfect surfaces of urban environments where street art naturally resides. The mural from which this print originated was created in 2015 under the auspices of the Lisa Project NYC, further cementing English's role in the urban landscape of public art. By moving from the transient medium of murals to the permanence of limited edition prints, English allows for a wider dissemination of his ideas, enabling a broader audience to engage with his provocative juxtapositions and vibrant imagery. Ron English's "Temper Tot Tramples Guernica" serves as a poignant reminder of the power of Street Pop Art to comment on society, offering a bridge between historical consciousness and contemporary critique. It stands as a testament to the potential of street art to infuse spaces, whether public or private, with layered meanings and vibrant visual impact.

"Vader Grin" exemplifies this approach, featuring the iconic mask of Darth Vader from the Star Wars saga, reimagined with a skeletal smile. This fusion of the familiar with the macabre invites viewers to contemplate the underlying narratives of power, identity, and mortality that pervade our cultural landscape. By integrating the concept of the grin, English draws attention to the ironic juxtaposition of the menacing persona of Vader with the universal symbol of happiness and amusement. Cultural Commentary in Archival Pigment Prints The use of archival pigment in "Vader Grin" is a testament to the English's intention to create a legacy that withstands the ephemeral nature of graffiti. Such prints are renowned for their longevity and vibrancy, bridging the gap between the transitory world of street art and the permanence aspired to in fine art.

This artwork is a visual experience and a narrative one, offering a critique of the mythos and commodification of villainy as seen in popular media. The Darth Vader helmet, an emblem of the dark side, becomes a canvas for English to explore themes of commercialization and the dichotomy between good and evil, as portrayed in the Star Wars franchise and beyond.

By merging iconic symbols with unexpected elements, he encourages viewers to question the narratives fed to them by popular culture.

In the broader context of Ron English's oeuvre, "Vader Grin" is a vibrant example of how street art can transcend its urban origins to engage with and critique the more significant cultural narratives that shape society. His work is a reminder that art can be both a reflection of the times and a powerful tool for shaping the discourse around contemporary issues. Through "Vader Grin," English contributes to the conversation about the influence of media on our perceptions of heroism and villainy, offering a visual commentary that is as thought-provoking as it is visually striking.
