Ron English is an agit-prop artist who has done innumerable interesting and politically charged art installations of various natures throughout the years. Recently, he created an image he called 'Abraham Obama', and you may have seen or heard of it already. But if not, its definitely worth taking a look at.
Well, two days ago he performed his latest installation, a giant 100' x 12' pop-art banner of 'Abraham Obama' in Boston, MA. The image is pretty striking, its basically Lincoln's hair, forehead and beard, with Obama's face underneath. What that means or what to make of it is certainly open to interpretation...
