Steve Lambert, Alan Abel, and Ron English – April 24

April 2008

I’ll be giving a short, and hopefully funny, talk as part of Gelf Magazine’s Non-Motivational Speaker series. From Gelf’s site:

Steve Lambert, Alan Abel, and Ron English   April 24 photoCulture jammers and pranksters will be this month’s topic. Featured speakers are Alan Abel, perhaps the most infamous prankster in American prank history, subject of the recent award-winning documentary, Abel Raises Cain, and “founder” of mock citizens’ groups The Society for the Indecency to Naked Animals and Citizens Against Breastfeeding; Steve Lambert, guerrilla artist, founder of The Anti-Advertising Agency, and Senior Fellow at cutting-edge arts organization Eyebeam NYC; and Ron English, patriarch of the agit-pop art movement, corporate branding subversive, and subject of the documentary “POPaganda: The Art and Crimes of Ron English.”

The event will start at 8 pm at the Happy Ending Lounge, and is free.
