BLF/"POPAGANDA" + + + In the second installment of our Culture-Jam series, the Billboard Liberation Front, those storied stalwarts of late-night billboard alteration, surface in our gallery—merry, masked, and Mayday-mobilized, to introduce Pedro Carvajal’s "POPaganda". Pedro’s hr.-plus doc focuses on the antics of painter Ron English, a modern-day Robin Hood of Madison Ave., who renders an alternative universe of advertising subversion. Shepard Fairey, Daniel Johnston, and the Dandy Warhols also have a hand in the production. PLUS Craig Baldwin’s history of billboard hits, Bryan Boyce’s savage satire of Cheney, "America's Biggest Dick", and a preview of Negativland’s upcoming DVD. Free toast and grape jam! $5.
