Ron English:Guernica at Allouche Gallery

Allouche Gallery is pleased to present its first solo show in the Meatpacking District, Ron English / Guernica, featuring the inaugural debut of eighteen new paintings by the prolific contemporary Pop and street artist, Ron English. The exhibition will remain on view at Allouche Gallery from September 22 to October 19, 2016.

The exhibition’s title and its pieces reference English’s own narrative to Pablo Picasso’s 1937 painting Guernica, which is praised as one of the most famous anti-war paintings in history. While Picasso’s Guernica was painted in response to the bombing of a village in northern Spain, English utilizes the modern war template to relay powerful messages about the endless cycles of creation and destruction.
