“Lisa Levy is a conceptual artist, comedic performer and (self-proclaimed) psychotherapist. Her visual art has been widely exhibited as many venues including: The New Museum, The Bronx Museum, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music.” – Create Magazine
“Lisa Levy takes a direct approach to arresting viewers’ attention with a small, dark pink canvas on which she painted the words ‘This is the best piece in the show’.” – artnet news

Lisa Levy’s ‘Thoughts In My Head’ pays homage to post modernists and famed artists Jenny Holzer and Barbara Kruger featuring over 100 images of her popular and important text based artwork. The book was conceptualized by the written language that's out in the world — graffiti, signs, posters, flyers, matchbooks — in one big cauldron. How quickly words are processed and discarded if they are processed at all. She believes ultimately language is the best tool to communicate our thoughts efficiently, and however woefully inadequate.
