Label texts

Cary Leibowitz often incorporates humor and personal neuroses into his artistic practice. “My work looks really palatable and approachable,” Leibowitz said, “but I always throw in something to disturb people. I need that—I feel like it’s my responsibility to make the viewer uncomfortable.” On the far left of this etching the text spells out a dire message, while the right side offers a seemingly flippant, yet ominous, retort. Leibowitz received a BFA at KU and returned in 2008 as a visiting artist.
