Description

A deluxe edition presented in a beautifully designed slipcase. This exquisitely produced two-volume monograph is the definitive celebration of a visual artist whose pioneering use of light and technology has transformed contemporary portraiture and installation art. The first volume features his most well-known portraits, including Lightness of Being—the serene and now-iconic image of Queen Elizabeth II with her eyes closed—alongside luminous portraits of Kate Moss, Grace Jones, the Dalai Lama, and Sir Elton John. Levine’s ability to blend cutting-edge technology with a meditative, ethereal quality redefines traditional portraiture, capturing not only the physical likeness of his subjects but also their inner presence. The second volume gives the story of Levine’s life and how he made the transition from designer to artist. Starting from his childhood and studying at Chelsea College of Art, the book highlights his large-scale installations and sculptural work, his dynamic public art projects—including light shows for Massive Attack and striking installations at the Eden Project—as well as his commercial work for the likes of Nissan and Swarovski. It also examines his 2020–21 site-specific work at Houghton Hall, where his innovative use of light transformed the historic space and landscaped grounds. Elegantly designed and printed with premium finishes—including spot UV, foil stamping, and fold-out pages—this slipcased edition is a stunning tribute to one of the most groundbreaking portrait artists of our time and an essential volume for collectors and art aficionados.
