Kehinde Wiley on TODAY

[nintendogmaster]

Do you have the intro to this?

[popeyeisgood]

anyone who thinks this guy is anything close to amazing basically knows nothing about art.

he is technically inadequate and conceptually empty. so what made him so successful? rich retarded people with greedy dealers knowing how to manipulate different kinds of media, with the hot subject like gay, black and ghetto all mixed up together and you got yourself a kehinde wiley.

@popeyeisgood also lets not forget to point out his actual art was made by failed artists otherwise known as artists assistants. I hear now he has the majority of the work produced in his China studio, and if u think this guys alone, all big name artists are fake for all u idiots who go to museums and think your looking at an artist actual hand made work, its a scam just like everything else in america. koons, murakami, same situation

[popeyeisgood]

@killreligion666

agree. and in kehinde's case it is worse than let say murakami, or even koon. kehinde is making simple portrait painting that could have been done by any one who knows how to draw and paint traditionally. yet he needs to out sources his shit to china for the do all the decorative background with their sweat shop labors. how pathetic is that. i am not saying and that murakami or koon hasnt done simiply practice

[popeyeisgood]

(cont)

but at least the spectrum of the latter two are more ambitious and diverse in terms of variety of art. i still think that they are all way too overrated and overly worshiped. their art work do not care a tint of personality but the stinks of big corporation and money.

@popeyeisgood

* i mean " i am not saying that murakami or koon hasnt done similar practice' which means that they also have assistances to paint their ' paintings' as well.

[killreligion666]

@popeyeisgood i would have to disagree, that Koons, murakami are even more of scam artist then Kehinde- at least kehinde can actually paint a realistic portrait (which does take some time to master) (and does at least touch his own canvas at some point even if its just to paint an eyelash).

[killreligion666]

@killreligion666 Koons has no skill at all just lots of money to pay to have his work made, same with Murakami- i went to the brooklyn museum to see his show which occupied the entire museum, my friend Ava was with me, she was visiting from poland and she said "oh i painted that entire pic" (she interned at Murakami) getting paidng 10 an hour, then to only be sold for 50,000$ where does the money go????? art is a scam in new york city, needs to be occupied lol

Been following Kehinde Wiley art for a while, a very BIG influence on me being an artist, if you like his art then I'm pretty sure you would enjoy mine, so please take a chance and check out my video of my studio and paintings, you won't be disappointed.

Hw will go down with all the greats!

[roadlesswandering]

I saw Kehinde Wiley at the brooklyn museum of Art.When I walked into the museum I saw this huge painting....of a black man on a horse that looked like something from the medici renaissaince. The image was jarring and breathtaking. Made me rethink the past.But russel simmons wants to attribute EVERYTHING to hip hop!!! Good grief! Oh and who ever scored this expose should make compilation CDs music was on point!

ificould_6: i loved the music they used with this expose....it was on point!!!

[liquidbunny7]
