Ron English’s Latest Mural in Rome to Appear in Documentary

Back in October, Ron English painted a mural in Rome as part of the street art project M.U.Ro (Museo Urban di Roma). Until now, the mural has been kept under wraps because it will appear in a documentary series, "Street Art," that airs tomorrow, December 3, at 10 pm on Italy's Sky Arts channel. English's new mural strips down his painting style to its essentials. Where in his studio work, he creates copiously-detailed microcosms within each painting, the mural focuses on the Baby Hulk and Mouse Mask Murphy with the other characters muted in the background. Check out some process shots of English completing the mural after the jump.
