Ron English: Abraham Obama

Ron English is an NYC-based pop artist who is most famous for his street art. Being the eve of the first presidential debate (if McCain decides to show up), I have decided to post a piece he has been exhibiting lately. This past summer he completed a nationwide tour making murals of “Abraham Obama”, a portrait of Abraham Lincoln fused with presidential hopeful Barack Obama. The tour traveled to Boston, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle and ended in Denver at the Democratic National Convention.

Here are some photos of the mural and the tour:






They even made this (weird) music video for it:
