    A Touching Retrospective

    Constant van Hoeven's retrospective documentary on Ron English is superb. It follow's Ron's life from his childhood to being a pioneer in the urban art world. The familiar faces, a great soundtrack, and the awesome production are captivating. The personal stories with family and close friends give an immersive understanding of the man behind the art. This movie is an inspiring narrative of the career of an important contemporary artist making work about contemporary issues. For anyone that loves Ron English, or street art, or urban art, or art in general "Living in Delusionville" is a must see.

    Ron English! LEGEND...

    Living in Delusionville is fantastique.

    For lack of better words... A game changer and made us all believe to be yourself and to touch the record.

    Thankful this out for everyone to see and be true to who you are...

    Constant Van Hoeven did an amazing job on getting this to the finish line especially with the pandemic taking place. A true act of passion for Ron's craft. Everyone you are in for a treat.

    I had the pleasure to edit a few of the scenes during the pandemic. It was such an honor to see how Ron sees the world and his art.

    From the early beginnings to now.

    Jah Bless. Señor Broadway!"

    Rich deep dive into Ron English's life and art

    Saw this at a film festival last weekend. It is pretty awesome. I knew almost nothing about Ron English's work going into it, and I learned a lot about the various periods of his artistic journey through life. Nice touches of the personal story as well, about his marriage and his kids. But the visuals of his sculptures that he uses for photography, as well as the street art that he did on big billboards for a long time, really make it great. There is a lot of footage of Ron speaking for himself, too, which gives you that authentic insider feeling about his motivations, his inspirations, and what he wants to communicate with his work. Great music as well - keeps you engaged all the way, even if you are not yet familiar with this amazing artist and his legacy.

    enveloping world of Ron English

    This impressionistic and highly informative documentary about Ron English takes you on a visual rollercoaster journey through the many era's of this incredible artist's life. The film has a killer soundtrack that varies from heavy electronic to old-timey and atmospheric - fleshing out the various eras and moments of Ron's artistic evolution. Throughout the film are great interviews with Ron himself and those around him. I really got a far greater insight into what makes him tick. It is guaranteed that you will learn much more about Ron and come away with an even greater respect for his legendary career.

    Ron English, Stable Genius

    Ron English, the well-known street and political artist, should be better known, and Constant van Hoeven's excellent documentary is the way to do it. With a groovy soundtrack, some of it featuring English's own band, van Hoeven takes us through the artist's development, from a crazed pre-teen with an 8-millimeter camera trying to outdo his friends' special effects (see how a 7th grader 'simulates' setting one of his characters on fire!) to the artist in his lair, deconstructing the commercial icons of our times. Go find the amazing faux talk show videos that English created with his wife - pure, brilliant performance art This doc has it all. Brilliant.
