Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz, 13 August 1926 – 25 November 2016, was a Cuban communist revolutionary and politician who governed the Republic of Cuba as Prime Minister from 1959 to 1976 and then as President from 1976 to 2008, featured in this limited edition of 50 Pop Art Disruptive print.

Signed by the Artist Jim Wheat honouring one of the most stoic leaders of all time with his picture duplicated across four squares, each one washed with a neon colour in the style of Pop Art portraiture, and subtly emblazoned with the dollar sign. Focusing the trope of money through people, places, and occasions, Dollarsandart's celebrity prints comment on the tense relationship between fame and finance in contemporary culture.
