The artist’s debut monograph delves into his vibrant paintings; capturing pop culture icons with wit and pathos. Drawing inspiration from iconic figures and imagery from popular media; press photos; and other artworks; McKinniss transforms familiar images of bold-faced names—including Leonardo DiCaprio; Michelle Pfeiffer; Whitney Houston; Dolly Parton; Britney Spears; Halle Berry; Joan Didion; Lil Nas X; and Mariah Carey; to name a few—into strikingly original works.
