  • 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.

      @RevoltOfAges 6 лет назад +4

      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.

      @giginapjac 6 лет назад +10

      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!!

    • @RevoltOfAges
      @RevoltOfAges 6 лет назад +18

      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?

      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.
