OverviewDavid Levinthal's latest series, History, is a culmination of his work over the last three-and-a-half decades. Like his previous series, it speaks to the way in which imagery derived from the mass media infiltrates memory, imagination, and identity. With vintage toy figurines and play sets he finds through his now long-established network of toy sellers and collectors, he creates elaborate scenes based on well known scenes from European history.
