“In one video [Jay Z] rapped in front of a Takashi Murakami painting and a sculpture of Tim Noble and Sue Webster (featuring a flashing dollar sign),” The Guardian says. “His ‘Picasso Baby,’ filmed in Pace Gallery and featuring too many curators and artists to count, was not the art world’s finest seven minutes.” 

Other entertainers, including Leonardo DiCaprio, also appear in the list.

The list’s “The Artists” section features Jeff Koons, Cindy Sherman, Damien Hirst, Isa Genzken and Mattew Barney.
