"more of a good-natured joke than a stern commentary on the commodification of art" (david stoesz, seattle weekly), leavitt's biographic series depicts subjects in an array of genres though most often contemporary visual artists. leavitt "perceives the potential for his figures to act as bridges between pop culture and art history." (dot dot dash, die gestalten verlag) in over 400 different figures subjects include jeff koons, ai weiwei, kara walker, cindy sherman, takashi murakami, frida kahlo, david byrne, björk and tupac shakur. "the tributes to leavitt's heroes will do nothing more than put a big dopy grin on your face." (seattle magazine)
