The Mike Leavitt 'Art Army' is a collection of action figures that are modeled from the most influential modern artists. The American artist has immortalized these prominent artists with mixed media and polymer clay.
Each artistic action figure in the Mike Leavitt 'Art Army' has its own unique mutation that sets it apart from the rest. From the trench coat-wearing, spray can-wielding Banksy to contemporary artist Ron English, who prefers to alter iconic brand labels, I really don’t know which one I want to get my hands on first!
