Budweiser's new can for the Republican Convention

InBev didn’t ask, but lack of corporate sponsorship has never stopped us before. We asked Go Around Back and The Ambiguities’ artso-fartso melchior ball to design Budweiser cans for the Republican and Democratic conventions. Here, in honor of Independence Day, or really because it’s exactly two weeks out, is mel’s tribute to the Republican nominee Donald Trump.



The quotation from Ovid, because Trump knows Ovid – he tweeted about the Roman poet recently: “Ovid. Yeah. Great guy. Raw deal by the king there.” – from The Metamorphoses’ description of Narcissus, might be translated:
he admires all that he finds admirable in himself
he longs for himself, and he approves what he approves in himself.
He seeks himself sought, he kindles and he burns.
