"Bad Mutha Wizard" is a 2008 painting by Dave Macdowell, depicting a pop culture mashup of the Wizard of Oz with the character Jules Winnfield from the film Pulp Fiction. This humorous piece of contemporary art features a larger-than-life head of Jules Winnfield, looking down at Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion from the iconic movie. This piece utilizes the classic Wizard of Oz imagery to create a humorous and unexpected visual dialogue with a contemporary cult classic film.
