In question are Barack Obama's intentions, legitimacy, patriotism, race, and birth certificate. The man with a message of hope sets an example that has never been set before. No matter his accomplishments and accolades in America is he still just a black man? This price was produced for the @1708gallery satellite show “Heads or Tails: Portraits of American Presidents”.

Congrats to @kehindewiley for painting the official portrait of President Obama that was unveiled today at the @smithsoniannpg I had the pleasure of photographing Kehinde at his studio a few years ago in Brooklyn for @USANetwork and it was very interesting to see his process and unique point of view. I can think of no one better suited to paint Obama. @barackobama #obamaportrait #nationalportraitgallery

What are your thoughts on the Obama portraits? @jenniferrabin reminds us to look deeper... ・・・ #Repost Regardless of personal opinions about the official portraits of the Obamas, I wish more focus was being given to the conceptual decisions that the artists (@kehindewiley painted President Obama; @asherald painted Mrs. Obama) made in creating these works. I wish more of the news coverage mentioned the flowers in the background of Mr. Obama’s portrait, each a representation of parts of his past (Kenya, Hawaii, Illinois), and how the backdrop of that past is trying to overtake the subject himself. I wish that instead of writing about the interesting and pretty dress in which Sherald chose to feature Mrs. Obama, reporters had taken the time to research the tradition of African American quiltmaking that Sherald was referencing with the garment. There is so much more to art than what we first see and, at this historic moment, my hope is that people will look a little deeper. . . #nationalportrait #obamaportrait #amysherald #kehindewiley #portrait #blackartist #presidentialportrait #blackportraits #art #america

On November 3rd 2008, the day before the U.S. Presidential elections, I created my first urban land art piece in Barcelona. “Expectation” was a giant ephemeral portrait of Barack Obama created on the city's beachfront on land administered by the Forum de les Cultures. The project embodied the huge sense of hope felt around the world – its scale, location, and materiality alluded to the global impact of his candidature and the victory for racial equality that was to come. The portrait measured approximately two and a half acres - one hectare. It was created using donated materials (650 tons of soil, sand and gravel), high precision GPS and the support of numerous volunteers. The title refers to the huge sense of anticipation that was building in the lead-up to the elections. The hope that Obama awoke across the globe showed that the world was searching for a hero to create a peaceful future. Though I feel that he may have tried to achieve that better future the reality today is that there is still institutionalised racism in the United States, an attempt for the right to universal healthcare that will soon be dismantled, there is denial of global warming from incoming heads of state, the Guantanamo Bay detention camp is still open, countless families were torn apart because of record numbers of deportations, never ending drone wars in the middle east, etc. The piece encouraged a dialogue about the uncertainties of our time, our irrational way of dealing with it as a society by pinning all our hopes on one person when they seem not to be part of the status quo. "Expectation" was a giant mandala created as a way to pray for change, but it was also a reminder that our hope for real change can be so fleeting. Thank you for the attempt President Obama #obama #obamaportrait #obamafarewell #obama2008 #jorgerodriguezgerada
