The United States of Consumerism

We came across this great piece of street art while in New York. It was huge, and took up the entire side of a building. I’m not sure who the artist is, or what it’s actually called, but I’ve dubbed it in my head as The United States of Consumerism. When you get closer each red and white stripe is made up of satirical takes on popular brands and items.

Although I can’t say I completely understand the “baby as the hulk” thing, it was definitely intriguing and I enjoyed photographing it. It feels very Adbusters. Take a look and let me know what you think!
