The Reviews are Gobsmacking Funny!

The self-proclaimed “World’s Best Artist”, Chicago’s Mitch O'Connell has been busy erecting billboards since 2016 depicting Donald Trump as one of the aliens in John Carpenter’s 1988 science fiction movie They Live. 

As he narrates: “It’s become the most popular image I’ve ever drawn. It was a lighthearted joke when I drew it, but real life began to seem more like the art with every week that passed. Folks started to pick up on that, and along with the strong reactions people have for Trump and the love every movie fan has for They Live, the image just took off”.

And whenever he posts an announcement to Facebook, angry Americans (probably white and male!) weigh in with their opinion, which O’Connell (left) happily uses to promote his Trump Art projects. 

I LOL every time I read them! 

I guess it’s more than just protest art – it’s also a self-promotion exercise!

BTW, his works have appeared in Entertainment Weekly, GQ, Newsweek, New Yorker, Playboy, Rolling Stone and Time among others.
