- New York-based artist Kehinde Wiley did not see himself reflected on the walls of the world's great museums, so he set out to create classical-style paintings featuring men and women of color, often echoing masterworks. Rita Braver meets with the artist and tours a new exhibition of his work.

Imagine having ur mug shot painted
Yeah, jussie's , with a sea of maga hats as a background
I love his work. As an artist 🎨 I appreciate his work
His paintings are BEAUTIFUL !
It's amazing ...the critics voice their opinion but most of them cannot create a great piece of art like this!
❤❤❤ Was at the San Francisco show last week. So grateful for how he allows Spirit to flow through him and bring us so much beauty.
Great job!! Excellent research and information.
Fabulous... I'm so inspired.
One day.... the world will see me too..
What an incredible talent! I'd love to see his works in person, I bet they're even more stunning.
i love his work amazing just saw it for the first time this week in person
truth betold Go look at his work in person of black women holding white women’s severed heads!
Awesome
You know the art is good when art critics hate it.
Love his work
Love Wiley's hyperrealism..
This is not hyperrealism, it is just realism.
he paints the background??really patience..i like it!
Wow i never knew my research would bring me here! i saw one of his paintings in the Raleigh art museum😃
You have to see this work in person. Pictures just can't cpture the humanity!!!
Huge fan❤
Happy we have his exhibit here in Richmond Virginia!
YES, I JUST came from the exhibit today and it was amazing!
LOL..
Yeah, Richmond is really going downhill.
Where are the portraits of black women holding severed white women's heads?
Do you mean the portraits based on the story of Judith in the Old Testament? Those paintings are just as classically inspired and just as artful as the rest of his work, but with all due respect, I don't think you really care about that. You just want something to be offended by.
Jeff Lebowski I guess you can justify anything when it suits you liberals.
The "original" paintings weren't white women holding black women's heads! And don't talk like "the book of Judith" is in the St. James Bible, it isn't. It is considered "non-historical ", so get over yourself trying to justify this racist and his violent racist POOR painting COPIES!!
someone is triggered.... why don't you do some research before crying rascist.
Beautiful
Larry Sinclair's testimony about Barry.....watch it
He's been around awhile. He isn't new and upcoming.
+lestudio76 Yeah ive known about his work for about 10 years!
lestudio76 he’s only getting this much attention for the Obama portraits he created
Looking forward to seeing this exhibit.
❤
He’s really talented
Wow, in Empire
Wow, a cow made of butter. My girls would love it. In fact, the first sentence Caroline ever said was "I like butter"
They let him set up a studio in Senegal? Hmmm
Yes the power structure in the art world can try to denigrate this amazing artist by calling his work cartoonish.but celebrate some of the cartoonish junk they call Impressionism.
Hahahahaha
If this had been a white painter painting white women holding the severed heads of black women his "art" would not even be part of the discussion here.
You do realize that the beheading painting is titled "Judith and Holofernes" and is a direct reference to the biblical story of Judith in the Old Testament, right? Or are you just being sanctimonious without actually researching the painting you're talking about?
Thus is the famous double standard
If a white painter painted what you mentioned it would represent something different, duh.
John Johnson That's why it's called a double-standard, genius.

There are numerous pieces of art throughout history where not only black people are depicted hung, being enslaved, tortured, killed etc, but also Europeans themselves hanging, decapitating, enslaving, torturing, killing each other. These pieces are of course significant memoirs of your past in museums to expressive pieces by the artists themselves all over the world. You are allowed to show your history and express yourselves but of course your white privilege kicks in when it's the other way around.
Commissioned to paint Obama's portrait! 🙌🏽
I think is realistic and beautiful artist tries to show
Nice art paintings can you teach my page is domminic McIntyre drawing
Praise for a monuement on either side shows why this country is going where it is going. Too many people sitting around worried about statues. Too many people holding on to hatred simply because they have personally failed so miserably in life that thats all they have... Pathetic...
Whatever force??? Lol....he knows exactly what force enables him........The evil one
The minute the assistant is doing the painting Alongside the artist...the art work lacks integrity.
The artist work must be pure of only his or her touch.
@@ectoskeletal you can admire. But it still lacks integrity if there are added hands other than the artist doing the painting.
@@ectoskeletal not an opinion. It is a EDUCATING OPINION. That is a difference. I did not discredit Mr.Wiley's art. Not once. You are assuming and using confirmation bias to stretch your imagination.
Wattefock
Nice wallpaper. No paradigm shift here.
Artist freemason nephilim bloodline...selah
His work on obama looks like a puzzle box.
That's because it's full of snakes, dead sheep and reptiles

I really appreciate the inclusion of female representation, but worry that it might be mistaken as sexualization by changing their clothing to something that elevates their perceived status. Just a thought...
this is why ‘real men’ don’t like art
( all that ‘beheading ‘ )
Take some photos of stereotyped black people, cut ir out in photoshop, put it over a flowery pattern fabric, reproduce it in large scale and... voilá: a Kehinde Wiley is done.
I know, I don't know how people are impressed by this.
yuk
Skilfull craftsmanship but don’t call this art but rather kitsch
GO TRUMP
So he is basically copying, recycling and bashing elements together.
I don't care for the message in these pieces, I only care for how good it looks, and it doesn't. There is no mastery, no skill, no hard work in there. He probably doesn't even know about color theory or anatomy, for gods sake.
Thinking the same thing. All this is, is a race hustle. He isn't bad, but he isn't great. He has about as skill as those people doing cover for cheap novels you see dollar stores or wall-mart.
You both sound like the biggest haters on the planet.
He has a MFA...
Just disappointed. He isn't anywhere close to being as good as he's been made out to be. Jeremy Geddes and Roberto Ferri are probably my personal favorite painters working today and they are many leagues above this guy but I don't think they get as much attention. I could be wrong, but I don't think they do. Though Ferri did do portraits of I think multiple popes. Anyhow something really petty about people who use that word "hater". It's nice you can label someone but can you address the argument?
I've had many art teachers with MFA and virtually all of them were garbage.
I'll pass thank you
Imposing black peoppe on European art doesn’t raise question it’s just apart of the the regular erasure of Europeans in every facet from both their own cultural spaces and historical narratives.
Racist?
What a patronizing and racist interviewer. Yuk.
this is some street art level, but really happy for him, he made it
Street art? Can you expand on that?
