Openings: Michael Leavitt – “The Art Army Royalty” @ Jonathan Levine Gallery

Leavitt with his Yayoi Kusama and Richard Serra pieces.

Several weeks ago, showing alongside Dylan Egon, the The Art Army Royalty of Michael Leavitt (interviewed) were on full display at New York’s Jonathan LeVine gallery. The solo show was made up entirely of Michael’s signature sculptural tributes to artists featuring a melding of their eerily accurate portraits and features of their work. Artists like Ai Weiwei, Damien Hirst, and Lucian Freud were all free game for his special interpretations.

You can see all the individual pieces here, but take a look at more opening photos after the jump…
