Jason Polan (1982-2020), a prolific artist, embarked on an ambitious mission: to draw every person in New York City. From cab drivers to celebrities, he captured the essence of the city’s diverse inhabitants. His energetic sketches depict people eating at Taco Bell, admiring paintings at the Museum of Modern Art, and even dozing off on the subway. The result of this extraordinary endeavor is the book “Every Person in New York.” Volume 1, published in 2015, collects thousands of Polan’s drawings in one chunky tome. With a foreword by Kristen Wiig, it’s a love letter to the bustling streets and the people who animate them. Imagine a phone book brimming with life—a testament to the vibrant spirit of the city. But Polan’s artistic journey didn’t end there. Volume 2, which picks up where the first left off, continued until the end of 2019. He estimated having drawn over 50,000 people, yet he humbly remarked, “I still have a bit to go” in capturing every New Yorker. Tragically, Jason Polan’s mission was cut short. He passed away in January 2020, leaving behind a legacy of art that celebrates the human tapestry of New York City. His dedication to documenting the ordinary and extraordinary lives around him remains an inspiration to artists and dreamers alike.
