See America?s presidents as never before?made of objects! Using everything from blue jeans to boxing gloves, Hanoch Piven ?builds? the characters of eighteen of our nation?s leaders. Revealing anecdotes accompany the creative collages and lend insight to the charismatic personalities of prominent presidents from George Washington to Barack Obama. Ulysses S. Grant is dressed up as a race-car driver for the time he got a ticket from driving his one-horse carriage too fast through the streets of Washington. John F. Kennedy has a flipper for a nose for when he saved a fellow soldier by pulling him to an island three miles away with the end of his life jacket between his teeth after his ship sank in World War II. Barack Obama has a genie's bottle for a nose to represent his hopes and dreams for America and his confidence and determination to try and succeed.
