Just in time for the 4th of July, Agitprop specialist Ron English created large-scale, colorized versions of his controversial Obama-Lincoln fusion portrait and splattered them across Boston. The oversized versions of the portraits were installed as part of a political exhibit for Gallery XIV. English also dressed up as Lincoln and distributed copies of the smaller version of the portrait to Bostonians.
Reportedly, the exhibit has already stirred up the obligatory (and planned) controversy with the gallery getting calls from the mayor's office.
