Umerican Art (Ronald Reagan)
1970
A wildly distorted caricature of Ronald Reagan rendered in Peter Saul's signature grotesque and irreverent style, the work explodes with garish, clashing colors and frenzied linework. Saul's biting political satire transforms the former president into a monstrous, cartoonish figure, warping the body and face into exaggerated, unsettling forms. The use of acrylic and ink on cardboard underscores the raw, anti-establishment energy that defines Saul's confrontational approach to American politics and pop culture.
