RON ENGLISH (Chicago, 1959) for Made by Monsters Toys. "Rodent Grin" from the "Pop Art" series. 2 painted vinyl figures. JPS Special Edition limited to 400 copies. Signed, numbered and sealed. With original bags. In good condition. Measurements: 22 cm (height). The most famous mouse in the world differs from the rest of the conventional versions by the already classic skull-shaped smile of Ron English. The Art Toys in tender correspond to the JPS release of Rodent Grin by Ron English x Made by Monsters. Ron English's Art Toys are a mix between pop art and propaganda that follows the concept of "Culture Jamming", which can be translated as cultural sabotage or diversion, in which he incorporates iconography derived from superhero comics, art history, advertising or politics. English thus plays with the iconography of multinationals, popular culture or art history, such as Joe Camel, McDonalds, Vincent vanGogh or Mickey Mouse, versioning and satirizing them to symbolize the opposite of the values they represent. English's name has appeared in the most important magazines in the world (The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, The Miami Herald, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, LA Weekly, Art News, Time Magazine, Rolling Stone, Creem, Juxtapoz Magazine, Hi Fructosa, Mad Magazine, among others). His film and television appearances include Exit Through the Gift Shop, Supersize Me, The Simpsons, Work of Art, Street Art Throwdown, CNN, BBC, Sky TV and many others. In addition to his art practices and murals, English has produced album covers for musicians such as Dandy Warhols and Slash, art for the documentary Super Size Me and various Art Toys. In good condition.
