George Mullen is often jokingly referred to as the Renaissance Man of San Diego because of the wide range of interests he is actively pursuing. His operational HQ is at StudioRevolution in downtown San Diego. He is a native of San Diego and a graduate of the University of Colorado, Boulder. He is an oil painting artist and writer, as well as a global leader in politically driven art – see his newly released Barbed America Art and his earlier September 11 Art. His primary work mediums include oil paint, barbwire, canvas, and the almighty pen and paper.
Mullen also develops long-term branding strategies for cities and nation-states, as exemplified by City of Life and Panama is Life. Likewise, San Diego’s iconic Museum of Man just changed its name to the “Museum of Us” based on Mullen’s Museum of Us concept.
Mullen has extensive experience in the financial markets and is recognized as one of the few people in the world to accurately predict the 2007 – 2009 global economic collapse in his articles The Coming Financial Tsunami and Welcome to the Bubble Economy. He previously spent considerable time in the Middle East doing archaeological work. Based on his experiences in the region he authored the book Peace in the Middle East, which carries a noteworthy endorsement by M.I.T.’s world-renowned Noam Chomsky. He has since authored an array of published articles on world affairs, global finance, and local San Diego issues. Although political art and writing are main focuses, Mullen remains an independent-minded idea person and is not affiliated with any political party or political movement. (Photos of Mullen)
In addition, Mullen is spearheading the Sunbreak Ranch initiative to end America’s burgeoning homeless crisis. This effort is based on a bold new homeless strategy known as Federal Leadership, Local Control.
Mullen has been a dedicated member of Rotary International since 1988 and is Past President of the powerhouse San Diego Downtown Breakfast Rotary. This group has been a critical player in providing humanitarian aid to San Diego’s needy during the 2020 Coronavirus Crisis. Mullen was previously President of the San Diego Mission Valley Rotary as well. As Mullen likes to say, “Rotary is a highly effective volunteer organization of women and men who have accomplished more community good for San Diego than all of our local political leadership combined, no question about it.”

City of Life
Mullen and a group of civic-minded citizens recently put forth a cutting-edge proposal for a new identifier for the city of San Diego known as the City of Life. The concept is coupled with a broad thematic public art campaign intended to make San Diego “sing” for the next 300 plus years.
Many prominent San Diegans (Endorsement Team) such as Malin Burnham, Toni Atkins, and Tom Sudberry believe this proposal to be a perfect fit for San Diego, and hopefully it will soon be formally embraced. Why the City of Life? provides a concise explanation.
Please follow the City of Life on Instagram @CityofLife_SanDiego.
In the public art square, Mullen has proposed Life Unleashed San Diego Style – a 20-image rotating art proposal for San Diego International Airport.

The Coronado Bridge of Life
The Coronado Bridge has disturbingly become one of the top suicide magnets in the world – with over 400 people now dead. This is outrageous and needs to STOP. Mullen has become active in the effort to do so and has put forward a viable proposal – one that can be accomplished within a month’s time and for less than $25,000. The concept was first introduced in this article: A Simple Solution to Preventing Suicides on the Coronado Bridge. The time has come to decisively turn the beautiful Coronado Bridge into the BRIDGE OF LIFE it was always intended to be.

Barbed America
Stopping China’s Debt-Trap March to World Domination
Mullen recently weighed in with two major articles explaining China’s global debt-trapping and the grave danger it represents to the world community. The threat is far more acute than most people recognize. For this reason America needs to wake up…fast…and begin a broad manufacturing shift to the “Americas”.

Author & Commentator
George Mullen was one of the few vocal individuals at the peak of the markets to predict what became the 2007 – 2009 economic collapse, and subsequent Great Recession. In fact, he was the first to coin the term “Financial Tsunami” to describe the crisis he foresaw in the article “The Coming Financial Tsunami” published in 2005. This term took on a life of its own in 2008 when CNBC and Pimco bond-king Bill Gross began repeatedly using the term, followed by Lehman Brothers CEO Richard Fuld publicly blaming the Lehman bankruptcy on the“Financial Tsunami”. Soon thereafter, the likes of former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, real estate mogul Sam Zell, and the Chinese government were all using the term to describe the economic collapse. Though most laughed or called Mullen an alarmist when these articles were first published, by 2007 no one was laughing anymore. Read for yourself:

September 11 Art
Mullen worked and spent a great deal of time in the World Trade Center in New York City in the 1980’s and 1990’s, his employer at the time being headquartered there. As such, September 11 prompted a large body of art work from him. Mullen’s “American Scream” painting first appeared in ARTnews magazine in 2002. Click here to view the September 11 Art pages.
Mullen’s September 11 Art is also featured at the 9/11 Memorial at Ground Zero in New York City: Mullen Art @ 9/11 Memorial.
Terrorism Art
Based on Mullen’s prolific September 11 Art from 2001, he has long been a leader in what is known as “Terrorism Art”. With the renewed 2015 wave of terrorist attacks on western targets, he has launched two new art efforts entitled as Paris Terror Art and San Bernardino Terrorism Art. Mullen is an admirer and frequent traveler to Paris, and San Bernardino is in his backyard.
Entertainment
In the entertainment arena, projects of interest Mullen has been working on include his recently finished screenplay, Target Mona Lisa, as well as his concept for a reality-based TV show, American Bailout. On the musical front, Mullen was the rhythm guitarist and songwriter for the now defunct alternative rock band Dynamic Edge. For a sample of his songs, please visit his Song List.

“Terrorism + Art collide in an international political thriller”
San Diego Chargers
As a native San Diegan and lifelong Chargers fan, Mullen was actively involved in the efforts to keep the San Diego Chargers football team in San Diego. His final attempt was published in The San Diego Union-Tribune (Could So Cal Chargers Be Answer For San Diego?) and attracted significant attention. Sadly, the opportunity for a deal was frittered away by San Diego’s mayor.

(Chomsky Named World’s Top Intellectual – October 18, 2005)
Summary: In the spring of 1992, well before the breakthrough Middle East peace agreements of 1993-1994, George Mullen authored a controversial article in the weekly Palestinian newspaper Al-Fajr entitled, “An Israeli-Palestinian Peace Proposal.” Mullen, being neither an Arab nor a Jew, provided a uniquely unbiased and highly detailed proposal for ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that directly faced the most controversial issues – Palestinian statehood, the status of Jerusalem, the Jewish settlers, et al. Because the contents of the article stirred such strong emotions within both the Palestinian and Jewish communities, Mullen used it as the basis for Peace in the Middle East. This book outlined a realistic and comprehensive proposal for ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
(Ican Press, 1994)

Mullen’s Artist Statement: “Artist statements, biographies, and awards are meaningless hyperbole. Either the art is compelling, or it is not.”

Hotelier Cabal
Mullen is leading a community-inspired effort to eradicate the Hotelier Cabal that has been laying waste to San Diego’s civic landscape since November 2005.
